20 years ago, Robert Muldoon died under mysterious circumstances on Isla Nublar. Today, his son and three army buddies return to the forbidden island in search of the truth. A Hollow Earth Expedition stand alone game, just in time for the US release of Jurassic World!

Great game, I thought that the team had a mole (just like the film did), was a nice touch. What where the characters flaws/motivations?
Thoroughly enjoyed this
I think Jesus’ character is in the film. The mercenary with the large gun that shoots the pterodactal while flying onto the island.
Motivation for Fergy, I think, was… uh… money? Yeah, sounds about right. His flaw was greed or addiction or a combination of those. He loved his narcotics.
With the movie out I set up a poll. Voice your opinion.

I can say without hesitation that this adventure was better written than the newest film, though of course you guys had the benefit of not having to dumb the script and dialogue down for the purposes of fluid translation into the growing international market #4 http://www.cracked.com/article_19012_5-hollywood-secrets-that-explain-why-so-many-movies-suck.html
Loved this episode and seeing Angela Gm a game is always a treat.
To be fair kevlar vests are padded for slashes etc. This makes it so it helps with being stabbed but it is not much. And that is not including things like some swat/police vests which include metal plates which will really effect knives.
Still hurts like a bitch when things hit the fan, and bad stuff happens.
Oh you guys ever though about or looked at Iron Kingdoms? Probably not your cup of team but I have personally found a deep love of the system for the role-playing fun along with a good tactical combat based of it’s wargame(it’s rewarding to think smart!)
I know that feeling where you realize it is either the players fail and die or you long grind out against the monster. And neither choice is fun so you just let them escape. Also grenades to the soft insides of a throat sounds awful
At this point I’m rambling a decent bit
I think a letter to the editor page could be fun for fandible.
Also raise a hand if you’d play in a one-shot with the fandible crew or run a one-shot with them.
See we have a 20 seconds of silence Dance, which means the first few seconds of our recordings mostly involve Bloodied trying not to laugh. That said the Cult is 60% Women so we are a little less prone to Dick Jokes, not massively so, but slightly!
I do actually have Iron Kingdoms myself, not run it yet, but you never know I might!
Another great HEX game from Angela, you really are the master of HEX, I really love the sound of the game but have sooo many games to run I haven’t even read the rules yet although I got them all with Revelations of Mars. I like me a Cinematic game, although I still have a Mecha vs Kaiju game planned. I have now rewatched all of the films in preparation for Jurasic World this weekend!
I suspect that savage Worlds would also work quite well for Dinosaur based shenanigans.
I would totally, absolutely, run or play a one-shot with the Fandible crew 😀 All that has to happen is I get to New York, or they get to the UK!
Keep up the good work guys!
