In this episode we discuss different uses and purposes of random encounter charts (thanks to the suggestion of listener John Williams) and do our best to make a go of "Time Trap!" an early adventure for the TSR Marvel Super Heroes games. If you have suggestions, questions, or gaming stories you would like to share, write us at thisoldungeon@gmail.com or catch us on Facebook!

That adventure sounds like a disaster! To the random encounter discussion, I think Jonathan Williams has a good technique, but it all depends on the adventure you’re running. Playing a sandbox like the Isle of Dread? Roll every hex and see what happens. Playing a narrative-focused adventure? Don’t use random encounters at all.
