This RPG zine is a collection of articles to enhance your <strong>TFT</strong> campaign. These include tips and tricks from many of the <strong>TFT</strong> experts including Steve Jackson. For me, one of the coolest parts of <strong><em>Hexagram #10</em></strong> is Steve Jackson interviewing RPG artist, Rick Hershey. Because of their respective positions in the industry, I’m interested in reading what Steve and Rick share. In addition, the campaign offers a nicely printed box to store your zines in, that doubles as an interactive random loot table. But the hook of this campaign is David Pulzer’s 92-page, <strong><em>The T’reo School of Martial Magic</em></strong>, a deadly school where only the best survive its hazing of duels and training, this school is a great addition to <strong>TFT</strong> or any fantasy RPG.</li> </ul> <p style="text-align: center"><a href="https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/warehouse23/hexagram-10-an-old-school-rpg-zine-for-the-fantasy-trip/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/warehouse23/hexagram-10-an-old-school-rpg-zine-for-the-fantasy-trip/minichart.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: center"></p> <p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]260510[/ATTACH]</p><p></p><p><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/philipreed/a-selection-of-slimes-odd-oozes-for-rpgs-by-philip-reed" target="_blank"><strong>A Selection of Slimes, Odd Oozes for RPGs</strong></a><strong> by </strong><a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/16363/Philip-Reed-Games?affiliate_id=814082" target="_blank"><strong>Philip Reed </strong></a><a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/16363/Philip-Reed-Games?affiliate_id=814082" target="_blank"><strong>Games</strong></a></p><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>END DATE</strong>: Wed, September 14 2022 5:00 PM EDT.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>SYSTEM(S)</strong>: OSR</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>PROJECT TYPE</strong>: Sourcebook</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>MOST POPULAR PLEDGE</strong>: $1 for the PDF of the project</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>WHY SPOTLIGHT THIS CAMPAIGN?</strong> Speaking of <strong>Steve Jackson Games</strong>, its CEO, Philip Reed, has another RPG <strong>Kickstarter</strong>, the 10th of his planned 12 for 2022.

This convention promises a Dark Reunion, <strong><em>World of Darkness</em></strong> creators such as Mark Rein-Hagen, Bill Bridges, Phil Brucato, and many more appearing at the convention together. If this sounds familiar, it’s because this is the make-up campaign for <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/icedicecon/ice-and-dice-gaming-convention" target="_blank"><strong>Ice & Dice 2022</strong></a>, which, unfortunately, could not be held. With the 2023 edition, they’re honoring the original backers and opening up a campaign for new attendees. Sponsored by <strong>2KingsGames, Lostlorn Games, Maximum Roll Entertainment,</strong> and <strong>Storm Bunny Studios</strong>, their <a href="https://www.iceanddice.com/special-guests/" target="_blank">guest list</a> promises the Dark Reunion and a great deal of indie, small press, and third-party RPG games and experiences. In addition, they’re supporting charities like <a href="https://www.dav.org/" target="_blank"><strong>Disabled American Veterans (DAV)</strong></a>, <a href="https://www.extra-life.org/" target="_blank"><strong>Extra Life</strong></a>, and <a href="https://tabletopgaymers.org/" target="_blank"><strong>Tabletop Gaymers Inc</strong></a>.

This RPG zine is a collection of articles to enhance your [B]TFT[/B] campaign. These include tips and tricks from many of the [B]TFT[/B] experts including Steve Jackson. For me, one of the coolest parts of [B][I]Hexagram #10[/I][/B] is Steve Jackson interviewing RPG artist, Rick Hershey. Because of their respective positions in the industry, I’m interested in reading what Steve and Rick share. In addition, the campaign offers a nicely printed box to store your zines in, that doubles as an interactive random loot table. But the hook of this campaign is David Pulzer’s 92-page, [B][I]The T’reo School of Martial Magic[/I][/B], a deadly school where only the best survive its hazing of duels and training, this school is a great addition to [B]TFT[/B] or any fantasy RPG.

Eleven different slimes for your OSR game await in this 32-page zine. Of the eleven, these three speak to me: Druid-Touched Slime, Merchant's Slime, and Necromancer's Slime. I don’t know what they are, but they sound like the ones I’d throw into my encounters. If slimes and related encounters sound like something your OSR campaign needs, check out this project, $1 gets you the PDF.

This convention promises a Dark Reunion, [B][I]World of Darkness[/I][/B] creators such as Mark Rein-Hagen, Bill Bridges, Phil Brucato, and many more appearing at the convention together. If this sounds familiar, it’s because this is the make-up campaign for [URL='https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/icedicecon/ice-and-dice-gaming-convention'][B]Ice & Dice 2022[/B][/URL], which, unfortunately, could not be held. With the 2023 edition, they’re honoring the original backers and opening up a campaign for new attendees. Sponsored by [B]2KingsGames, Lostlorn Games, Maximum Roll Entertainment,[/B] and [B]Storm Bunny Studios[/B], their [URL='https://www.iceanddice.com/special-guests/']guest list[/URL] promises the Dark Reunion and a great deal of indie, small press, and third-party RPG games and experiences. In addition, they’re supporting charities like [URL='https://www.dav.org/'][B]Disabled American Veterans (DAV)[/B][/URL], [URL='https://www.extra-life.org/'][B]Extra Life[/B][/URL], and [URL='https://tabletopgaymers.org/'][B]Tabletop Gaymers Inc[/B][/URL]. Hotel rooms are discounted to $89 a night, letting you stay at the host hotel. If you’re a fan of indie RPGs and the [B][I]World of Darkness[/I][/B] and live in the Ohio area then this convention is worth checking out.
