One piece of legal drama, lots and lots of sales, and even better than cheap – free quickstarts to four interesting-looking RPGs.

We get into tabletop and TV license deals with the vanishing of Star Trek, the end of Judge Dredd, signed books and drama at Paizo.

Atomic Arcade maybe Wizards of the Coast’s next big project, GURPs 3e has brought back an entire Conan range, and we talk about horror Christmas sweaters.

Christmas offers, RPGs that use fire and a look at whether or not games might be more effective than school in Geek Native’s highlights podcast.

More legal drama at Gary Con, the vanishing charity supplement for D&D and all in time for World Mental Health Day. It’s Spelljammer and other Geek Native highlights in this week’s podcast.
