About Roll Britannia - A British Dungeons & Dragons 5e Podcast
Roll Britannia is a British DnD 5e comedy actual play about pirates, heists, and very questionable plans that somehow work. Story first, jokey, rules light, with sharp improv, punchy combat, and a big warm found family vibe. If you like British comedy, Dungeons and Dragons, and seafaring shenanigans that keeps paying off, you’re in the right place. Meet the crew, Tom as Keth Frostiron, Paul as M.Tosscobble, Chip as Jeff Silverbow, Alex as Derek Normalbeard, and Sophie as River, with Dungeon Master James steering the chaos. Expect villain toppling, treasure chasing, courtroom disasters, musical detours, and recurring gags that get funnier the more you know. Proper roleplay, clean recaps, and world lore you can "borrow" for your home game. New listener? Start at episode one if you want to experience the mayhem grow. We signpost arcs and give recaps so you wont get lost. Long form adventures, occasional one shots, live show specials, and bonus side quests for the lore goblins. There’s big laughs, character drama that sneaks up on you, and the odd rules wobble that makes it better, honestly... You’ll hear a British DnD 5e actual play, pirate adventure, with a sprinkle of improvised fantasy, heists, monsters, magic, and a crew who argue like siblings then save each other anyway. Great for fans of comedy fiction, tabletop RPGs, and story led, rules light, shows where the rule of cool is king, weaving a story you can binge.
