Welcome to my Anchor channel. You'll find nothing serious here. I talk about tabletop RPG gaming with a focus on the older additions and retro clones. Some folks call it the OSR, I just all it gaming. If you like rolling weird dice, talking in weird voices and just being weird, pull up a chair and stay a while.
