Let's Roll: James Bond 007

Siskoid and special guest Ryan Blake take on Victory Games' James Bond 007 RPG, a true classic that proved a precursor to such games as DC Heroes and Torg, very cutting edge for its day and with a relatively modern feel even today. So brush off your "00" license, pick up a few things from Q, and give us a listen! Plus: In the GameMaster's Advice segment, Siskoid introduces the concept of an RPG-related Movie Night!

The plain James character sheet:

All the gadgets from the movies are in the Q Manual.

But where it's really at is the gorgeous adventure scenarios and their lavish hand-outs.

I couldn't remember it at the time, but my Bond's Bastards idea was actually based on IDW's Illegitimates comic. Source.
