We recently posted an article about our newest discovery. It is a character sheet that was used in Dave Arneon's napoleonic campaign. https://www.facebook.com/blackmoorsecrets/ In order to get healthy criticism about the implications of this artifact, we shared it with Daniel Boggs and allowed...

Wow, that's huge!

We've posted something on our facebook page about an original Blackmoor campaign setting. What is interesting is that it uses a mix of rules, some of them from a sci fi game. We thought it might lead to interesting discussions. https://www.facebook.com/blackmoorsecrets/posts/1246667248726121

There are so many systems out there and so many of them overlap in their mechanics. There are the over-ruled newer style games that makes them more about unleashing hidden rules than actually playing an RPG (I know I will catch flack for that comment he he), which it sounds like 5E has tried to...

We have posted a short article about Dan Nicholson's Gnome Fighter on our facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/blackmoorsecrets/posts/1239361422790037:0 Hope you find it interesting. We will keep posting notices on this discussion about the film in the future, so as not to clutter up the...

This is pretty interesting. We're looking forward to getting a copy to read. http://lakegenevaoriginalrpg.blogspot.no/2016/12/dave-arnesons-true-genius-cover-finished.html

The early games are interesting because the rules are so clunky. It requires a lot of on the spot judgement by a DM. Yeah, sci fi fantasy, or sword and planet. Barkers game is more like post-post apocalypse. Humanity and it's enemies have had thousands of years to develop very complex societies...

It is definitely the first sci fi RPG ever published. Tekumel is easily the most fascinating world ever created too. It is very difficult for someone who did not play with Barker to run it properly. The descriptions I've heard of Barker's Dm'ing make it sound like more of a DM railroading game...

Interesting. I doubt I would ever play 4E. As I am kind of stuck on 1E and all the other early games. Had all the 2E books, but never really liked how rigid it was, so never played it much. Back in the day there was a lot of discussion on how to handle this EP for other things. In FFC Arneson...

Just for a twist on this twisted topic. What about EP for not fighting, or just plain spending a lot of time talking to NPC's. I was in a game several years ago and to get to the place we go and adventure we'd always come to this one place where there were troll guards on the road. I thought it...

We posted some scans that we got from David Megarry. It is an original map of Blackmoor Town and a couple of detail shots relating to some of David's characters in Blackmoor. You can find them here: https://www.facebook.com/blackmoorsecrets/posts/1228796163846563

So, anyway, now that it's a 5 count time to step out of this and PM Jardr. ;)
