RPG
- why it’s the most interesting d20 system
- why it hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves
🎲 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.
Sallyskin is a technique developed by swamp-dwelling kinesthetes, designed to help breathe even in the foulest of waters. #Lore24
🃏 prepped my inspiration generator for #Lore24: todd.craft.me/lore24
🎲 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)
🃏 Work in Progress: the “start a session” procedure for my post-apocalytic science-fantasy card-based #ttrpg #gamedev
🎲 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!)
🎲 I can’t remember who recommended this, but yes, check your Ollie’s for D&D stuff.
I found an item 95% off and got copies for my local gaming group. It’s something usable for other games, too.
You are buried in litter from the mountaintop and forgotten.
🎲 First play of The Sword of the Bastard Elf ended poorly for me. 😆
🎲 Isle of Ixx: the story so far. (spoilers)
🎲 Debating if it’s time to teach my niblings the Mouse Guard RPG or if I should go with Isle of Ixx.
🎲 Meet Hendrik Koyama of the Norad Tribe of the Ahmarek, crafter and hexblade.
Hendrik and his companions are about to go on their proving quest, leaving their home in the mountain slope.
(This is a Hyperborea 3E game set in a post-apocalyptic Earth. “Hexblade” is what I’m calling warlock with witch spell list.)
🎲 Excellent. Whitehack 4th edition is now available in notebook edition.
This version (like my treasured 2nd edition) has pages at the back for your own content, notes, tables, etc.
🎲 kinda icky move from Chaosium. Paraphrased:
We won’t ship our 2016 kickstarter result to you unless you email us about your address in yet another system than this one. Hope you didn’t skip reading this 126th project update from a 2016 project!
