- why it’s the most interesting d20 system
- why it hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves
🎲 this seems like a very cool project, but I can’t get over the poor spelling and grammar 😬
Oceania 2084 - the orwellian TTRPG by Jocher Symbolic Systems
🎲 There’s a Rose-Hulman plate (my nerd alma mater) parked in my neighborhood and it has dice, a hero forge box, and a DnD book in the back seat.
I want to introduce myself and share better games.
🎲♟️ Was just having a “random coffee” at work, and the other person had traveled a lot for work when he was younger.
He mentioned that board & card games were popular with anyone from regions with real winters and I had never considered that before.
🎲🎶 just saw Tom Morello wandering the halls of #GaryCon
🎲 so Jacob Hurst (with Ben Milton being silent) has a pretty crappy attitude for backers of Knave 2nd Edition who are unhappy to find it getting sold at #GaryCon before backers get a copy. (Even those of us who are here and ordered the deluxe edition.) #ttrpg
🎲 #GaryCon Game 4: Dragonbane
Me and my friend next to me got the same sheet and but different figures so we’re playing an old couple (of elementalists).
(This happened to a couple of the others and they made theirs siblings.)
🎲 #GaryCon Game 3
Our Red Markets GM didn’t show up (weather?) so I ran Isle of Ixx with my friends. They made it to Wrecktown and made a deal with Balthazar.
🎲 So, Ed Greenwood has a couple folks that are his photographers and videographers and they came with him to the Surviving Strangehollow get together, and I was sitting next to him, so I guess I’m on a lot of film, now.
🎲 Game 2: Symbaroum
🎲 it’s on
Earthcrawl (DCC) funnel.
🎲 are you going to #GaryCon?
Let’s say “hi”.
I’ll be playing lots of games that I don’t normally get to (like funnels or new-to-me systems) as well as hanging out with my friends who are promoting their new Kickstarter.
🎲 Lore Frog - Your TTRPG World’s Companion and Scribe
Seems nifty, but now that Craft Docs allows guest editors, I think I can just do this there for free (well, for “included”).
📚🎲 Reading Whitehack again, so that I can hopefully explain:
🎲 I have two very nice RPG books I want to send to a good home, instead of HPB.
Dictionary of Mu by @Judd@mastodon.social . Very cool book but I have no interest in Sorceror.
Whitehack 2nd ed. notebook version by Christian Mehrstam. My fave d20 game, but I’m on to 4th ed. & had multiple copies.
🎲 Reminder for self: bundles (itch, drivethru, etc.) come with the cost of getting added to all those mailing lists, and while it is possible to unsubscribe from them, there is an attentional/time cost to unsubscribe to each.
🎲 Stalk the Rushes is a solo game where you play a Great Blue Heron.
🎲 Both niblings asked me to bring back Isle of Ixx when we visit for their birthday. Cool!
(Here’s what happened so far: todd.craft.me/ixx)
🎲 Just tried Dungeon Pages on the Kindle Scribe and it works great! (I expect the same would be true for Remarkable, large iPads, etc.).
What other Roll & Write games would you recommend?
(Boosts appreciated!)
