The characters and locations mentioned would be well known to the players in my own AD&D campaign, being located on [...] Episode 9 – Resistance Badly damaged in their first encounter with the Qaxorian fleet, the Starblade has crash landed on the surface of Titan. But will the moon’s mysterious inhabitants prove to be friendly or just another threat? If you happen to like our little show, do please share it with anyone else you think might be interested.
