    Critical Role Hires Former Hallmark Channel Executive Alyssa Zeisler to Run Beacon Platform

    As of now, I feel like there are too many things that are not on Beacon to call it a "central destination" for Critical Role. The only full main campaign they have on Beacon is Campaign 3. Earlier episodes of Campaign 2 is missing. Campaign 1 isn't even there. None of the animated series are...

    Let's Talk About Core Game Mechanics

    I dislike non-intuitive magic numbers in core mechanics. The cut-off points for PbTA 2d6 & Draw Steel 2d10 Power roll. In Ironsworn, "2" seems to be some kind of a magic number. Starting minimum momentum is 2. Your character's middling stat is 2 (instead of 0. sad). You need at least 2 squares...

    Let's Talk About Core Game Mechanics

    In Sundered Isles (Ironsworn: Starforged expansion), there is an optional rule that (I think) does exactly what you are talking about. The optional rule assigns to the d10stwo moons of the world, Cinder and Wrath. From the free sampler pdf (pg 7): Cinder is hot: aggressive, passionate...

    What is/are your most recent TTRPG purchase(s)?

    Broke down and got myself the print version of Sundered Isles. https://tomkinpress.com/products/sundered-isles-guidebooks Had a brain dead moment where after I pressed the purchase button, I thought to myself, "Welp, I guess I'll have to wait a week or so to play it," then I saw the pdf...

    Ironsworn Actual Play

    This is a great write up! I was thinking about starting an Ironsworn+ thread at some point. I haven't because I wanted to try playing Sundered Isles before doing a write up. I'm so excited to see this brought up here. I just want to add a few things. I would like to add that assets are not...

    TTRPG Cataloging and Metadata Survey (UW Survey)

    Some folks at the University of Washington are creating a classification system for TTRPGs. I had fun filling out the survey and I would like to pass this joy onto y'all. I can't say it's the... most well written survey, but it asked about a bunch things that's been noodling in my head. For...

    MCDM Joins Million Dollar Crowdfunder Club... For The 5th Time!

    I don't know if this is a complete list of all of MCDM's crowdfunders: MCDM Productions's Created Projects - BackerKit. (I'm a bit confused about the relationship between kickstarter and backerkit. It looks like some projects are listed in both?) So based on that list, the only...

    MCDM Joins Million Dollar Crowdfunder Club... For The 5th Time!

    As @Bolongo says, shouldn't the combined total be $12,796,129? 2,121,465 + 1,372,685 + 2,084,117 + 4,600,539 + 2,617,323 = 12,796,129

    Million Dollar TTRPG Kickstarter Club

    I expected something like this based on how quickly Drakkenheim Daggerheart met its funding goal vs the original. (13 min vs 5 min). The math comes out pretty close: 1,279,240 * 5/13 = 492,015.38. I wonder how many folks didn't back the kickstarter because they wanted to do the daggerheart...

    Does Anyone Care? (Cosmere RPG)

    Makes me wonder if I should wait for Plotweaver instead of getting the Stormlight Handbook now.
