Dream Park - it's a series of novels by Larry Niven and Steven Barnes ABOUT the future of role-playing, and then turned INTO a postmodern role-playing game by R. Talsorian Games. Siskoid not only ran this game for years, but also modified it considerably to suit his purposes. He re-invited one of his key players, Daniel "Pout" Ouellet, to discuss the experience of playing a player put through his paces by a GameMaster played by a GameMaster. It gets META! Plus, our GameMaster Advice column, and your feedback from the previous episode.

Next up on Let's Roll, Siskoid and his players Daniel Ouellet and Alexandre Hébert discuss GURPS Old West, where the latter two played brothers, and Siskoid started a cross-genre story that is sure to get more play on future episodes. But for now, what is GURPS? How do you role-play a western? And in the GameMaster Advice column, how much should you plan, and how much can you improvise?
