3	''[=bomBARDed=] - A Musical TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons Adventure'' (formatted exactly like that) is a D&D ActualPlay by Indie Rock band Lindby consisting of Kyle Claset, Nick Spurrier, Ali Grant, and Nick Goodrich. The podcast follows Chaos Sauce, a band of three bards named Raz'ul son of Daz'ul (Goodrich), Randy Greentrees (Spurriur), and Yashe'rak "Yashee" Bordun (Ali), as they have adventures at the bardic school of Strumlots in the magical land of Beetzart, overseen by their "Dungeon Maestro", Kyle.

5	OnceAnEpisode they roll a set of special dice called Chord Dice and write an InUniverse song using the Chords they roll along with several other factors. It can be listened to [[https://bombarded.podbean.com/ here]].
6	----
7	!! [=bomBARDed=] contains examples of:
8	* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Ilda, Gareth's lacky, hasn't appeared since the early episodes.
9	* DemotedToExtra: Gareth was originally an important character, being a rival and antagonist to the bards. It didn't take long for him to be pushed out of the way in favor of more interesting and malicious villains and whenever he shows up he spends more time being the comic relief than bullying the bards.
10	* EmbarrassingNickname: The moment they meet, the bards christen Symbol as Splash due to mistaking his name for Cymbal, much to his chagrin.
11	* FamedInStory: Symbol is known by pretty much ''everybody''.
12	* GoneHorriblyWrong: Sometimes, the Bards' spells fail spectacularly, such as accidentally knocking down all the walls in a town when they were trying to build a new wall or [[spoiler: traveling back in time while trying to fix a box.]]
13	* InstrumentalWeapon: Raz'ul's guitar is also an axe.
14	* MagicMusic: The bards use music to cast spells most of the time.
15	* OohMeAccentsSlipping: A variation. Ali and Goodrich deepen their voices for their characters, but they use their normal voices when they sing.
16	* OnceAnEpisode: As mentioned in the description, once an episode the band rolls chord dice in order to write a song using the chords they use.
17	* ThePowerOfRock: In addition to the usual MagicMusic one expects from bards, Chaos Sauce can also play "Ensemble Magic" which is super powerful magic they can access only by playing together.
18	* PunBasedTitle: The title is the word "Bombarded" with the word "bard" accentuated.
19	* RunningGag: There were two early on that have recently been dropped, mostly due to lack of opportunity to preform them:
20	** Raz'ul giving everyone they meet Chaos Sauce's card.
21	** Chaos Sauce informing everyone they meet that Symbol has changed his name to Splash.
22	* SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong: After [[spoiler: accidentally sending themselves and several others to the past, the Bards decide to take advantage of this and prevent several catastrophes from happening.]]
