PALISADE 61: Above the Earth Pt. 5
Friends at the Table
This episode carries content warnings for mental manipulation, body horror, and death. Hours after defeating Artifice, and hours before Motion's flagship breaches the far end of the battlefield, an uncomfortable buzz runs through the air. Even with the reinforcements from Millennium Break and the Apostolosians loyal to Cas'alear Rizah, the defenders of Perennial are outnumbered. Worse: Great heroics on the battlefield might fell a Divine or rout a batallion, but how do you stop a machine god who exists across the whole galaxy, dormant in every particle of the Perennial Wave. Such a feat would...

PALISADE 60: Above the Earth Pt. 4
Friends at the Table
This episode carries content warnings for mental manipulation, body horror, and death. Though Motion and her fleet remain at a distance, Levi, Brnine, Thisbe, and Cori find themselves facing overwhelming odds against the Pact’s forward operating unit, led by Passiflora, elect of the divine Artifice. Meanwhile, as Exeter Leap looks for a way to help Cas’alear Rizah with their address to the galaxy, Motion’s grip on their minds begins to tighten. Thankfully, unexpected guidance could be right around the corner… This week on PALISADE: Above the Earth Pt. 4 You saw me cry and it wasn't for...

PALISADE 59: Above the Earth Pt. 3
Friends at the Table
This episode carries content warnings for mental manipulation. At the center of the galaxy, the battle rages. Outnumbered, Cori and Thisbe turn to powers divine and profane in order to turn the tide, while Levi goes toe to toe with foes ten times his size. Brnine, Hunting--along with the the crews of the Blue Channel, Starcrossed, and Stolen Cameo--support their forces on the ground below. And in the depths of the station, Exeter Leap leads Cas'alear Rizah deeper into the maze, where the scion of Apostolos hopes to deliver an address that will change the galaxy forever. This week on...

PALISADE 58: Above the Earth Pt. 2
Friends at the Table
Under the command of Levitation Cascabel-Gardner, and supported by an ad-hoc alliance with Millennium Break, the pirate crew of the Precipice, and the dedicated loyalists of exiled Apokine Cas'alear Rizah, an operation at the center of the galaxy begins. At the center: A strip of metal as long as a city and as deep as a geological straum, which produces and spreads an endless wave of nanomachiens across the Milky Way. To its relative north, the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy, menacing despite its apparently safe distance. To its east: The holy node where Perennial first...

PALISADE 57: Above the Earth Pt. 1
Friends at the Table
With a fleet of Pact vessels heading towards Perennial’s station at the center of the Milky Way, Levi Cascabel-Gardner, Exeter Leap, and the reunited crew of the Blue Channel join with their allies on the beaches of the nearest world. There, they prepare for what is to come: Searching for new tools, drawing formations in the sand, and connecting with the very currents of reality. It is a place they know well, a time of preparation and planning. One last, long held breath under blue skies. This week on PALISADE: Above the Earth Pt. 1 I think it was the first time I realized that I could...

PALISADE 56: Some New Thing Found in the Light, Or: A Year in Nine Parts
Friends at the Table
This episode carries content warnings for death and severe isolation. It happened without much fanfare: They'd scattered—like the so-called shards of Divinity itself—all across the Milky Way. Searching. Fleeing. Exploring. Building. Fighting. A year apart. Not their year apart, because there was no "them" anymore, not by affinity or proximity, not through collaboration or communication, not in duty, not in friendship. And around them, the Divine Principality seemed to be slowly splintering too. Worlds detached from each other. Families separated not by war but by silence. New claimants to...
info_outlineHello! Welcome to the Palisade post-mortem! I struggle to find something to write here that isn't covered in this nearly five hour episode so let's just go over the important announcements.
- New Merch!
We've added some new merch to friendsattetable.shop to celebrate our 10th year anniversary and the end of Palisade! The hat and shirt will be available for as long as possible but the poster is a limited edition item only being sold until October 1st! Based on some potential issues with getting a good size and fulfillment, we've decided to ship this from a different method than Fourthwall--meaning right now we're selling it until October 1st and then will ship out the orders! There is a small chance the poster will get re-added at only size 12x18 to stay consistent like our other products, so if you're interested in the other sizes (8x12 and 4x6), get your order in asap!
- Our next season will be titled Perpetua and we will be playing Fabula Ultima! That's all we're able to share right now as we're still working on developing the season but we're all SO excited to dig into this new system! Please pardon the empty feed while we give ourselves time to make something incredible, the wait will be so so worth it. <3
- REALIS (a game system written by Austin Walker) will be hitting our patreon SOON! I think that I said end of September some time in this recording, because sometimes you just say a thing into a microphone after five hours, but please expect it closer to mid to late October. Oops! As you might imagine, the extended finale of Palisade really made a mess of our timeline... ontop of developing a new season! HOWEVER, with the current Patreon backlog, the entire first session/adventure will be released weekly on our patreon until we're caught up and switch back to monthly episodes. We intend to put those episodes onto the feed a few weeks later so in the mean time... PLEASE GET EXCITED!!! :)
- A Chaotic Cataloging: A Seasons of Hieron Fanzine has smashed through it's goal and they have a ton of community copies! If this is something you didn't check out because funds are tight, please use the wonderful resource our generous fans have provided for you and enjoy some sick Hieron art!!! And if you DO have some walking around money and want to get some of the higher tier goodies, all the funds go to a good cause so check them out!
Thank you so so so so so much everyone for all of your support. Here's to many more years of Friends at the Table!!! (emoji of two cups clinking together)
