When you have to destroy an evil entity as powerful as Death Adder - you put on as little clothing as possible, give yourself a cool name like Ax Battler or Thunderhead, and go on an ax-wielding quest. Bonus opportunities to ride a lizard-fish-bird (aka Cockatrice) and kick thieves for food and magic. Luckily Nolan North and Troy Baker don't have to actually do any of that... They just sit and play the classic Sega Genesis game GOLDEN AXE and talk about the movie BIG starring Tom Hanks. Keep an eye out for another Stryper call out as well as an epic montage of past #1 music hits from the show. Yes, folks...this is RETRO REPLAY.

"There's warmth and fire... Do you not wish to warm yourself, by my fire?", der er mange fristelser som barbar.

Conan the Barbarian (1982) instrueret af John Milius efter forfatteren Robert E. Howards bøger fra 1930'erne om barbaren Conan. Det er film nummer 45 på Thomas og Mortens liste over de 100 bedste film.

I Cimmeria, en barsk og mørk fantasyverden fuld af legender og magi vokser barbaren Conan (Arnold Schwarzenegger) op til at tjene guden Crom. Conan vige ikke for noget andet end blottet stål. Sammen med tyven og bueskytten (Gerry Lopez) og den smukke krigerinde Valeria (Sandahl Bergman) forsøger han at finde og tage hævn over lederen af den mægtige slange kult Thulsa Doom (James Earl Jones), der slog hans forældre ihjel.

Thomas og Morten tager en snak om rollespil, typekastede skuespillere og forskellen på guderne.

Let us tell you of the days of High Adventure!

Thanks to our friends at MODIPHIUS we got the opportunity to sit down for a session of their game, Conan: Adventures in an Age Undreamed Of, at Dragonmeet in London. This epic tale of heroism pits our unwitting heroes Bracus and Leonitus against nefarious foes in a city with a dark and sinister secret. The two have come in pursuit of coin, but will they leave the city with more than that? And will they leave it... alive?

Gamemaster: Mark Tresidder
