In person, I’d offer the players who did show up a couple options. First, there are RPGs I can offer to play at the drop of a hat, 10 to 15 min to get up and running including character creation, such as Mork Borg. Second, I have a bag full of Tiny Epic board games covering a variety of game...

Guidebook to the City of Dolmvay: Massive city, hundreds of buildings, neighbourhoods, and institutions. Many buildings have named NPCs, plot hooks, rumours, and adventure seeds. Classic swords & sorcery tone—gritty, grounded, yet fantastic. Good reviews, and the price is right: PWYW for the...

Used to run games at a friend’s home until that friend left town. I also ran a number of games, mostly one-shots, at an FLGS until the FLGS shut down due to an illness in the family. These days I just run games online so I voted “Other.”

Shock: Social Science Fiction: A gm-less story-telling game focussed on the sub-genre of social science-fiction, "... a pen-and-paper indie RPG about the effects of the shock of cultural change on the individuals who make up that culture." Social science-fiction is fiction like Blade Runner...

It’s just a sad situation. He spent so many years building up good will in the community, then spent the next several years just lighting it on fire.

I have a solid list of games I'm most keenly interested in running/playing, but just sticking to the ones that have bubble to the top: RuneQuest: Specifically, the newest edition. I'm currently running a one-on-one game with a friend, running him through the campaign Six Seasons in Sartar...

I'll be backing this. I'm not sure I'll ever play it, but it will be fun to read! My wife, who doesn't play RPGs but is a huge fan of ElfQuest, would probably enjoy reading it, too. From your lips to Michael Moorcock's ears!

While there are no adventure paths as such, there are some larger adventures intended to be run over the course of many sessions. The DCC conversion of The Dark Tower is intended to, over the course of several months, take PCs from 3rd/4th level to at least 6th and probably beyond. And this can...

A DCC/5e conversion of Griffin Mountain … it’s not going to happen, but it’d be something to see!

One thing I love about Fate of The Norns - Ragnarok is that players want their characters to die well in combat, ideally after achieving some glorious deeds.

I missed out on the Dark Tower crowdfunding (picked it up in retail), so I'm going deep on this one. For one thing, as a Canadian this is a great opportunity to pick up some other DCC books and save on shipping. When I backed The Music of the Spheres is Chaos, I was even able to add-on some 3PP...

Except neither are true. The product list is not based on level 0 funnels. Of the 53-ish official modules from the main line (excluding Lankhmar, MCC, etc), only 5 are level 0 funnels. For comparison, 12 are level 1 modules. They've published more level 5 modules for the main line than level 0...

Those lvl-0 character cards I mentioned earlier, I have the players put their cards in a line from themselves towards the centre of the table. The card closest to the centre is the one in the middle of the action ... most of the time. There are occasional exceptions where combat is too chaotic...

Or use the convenient tools at Purple Sorcerer; hitting this link gives you a PDF with four pregens in a fraction of a second. There are also a lot of customization options available. What I like to do is download enough of these four-to-a-page level 0 characters to give each expected player...

Not yet they haven't. The judge dismissed most of the claims brought by Silverman and other authors, but not all. The claim for violation of California’s unfair competition law was permitted to advance, and the claim for direct copyright infringement remains in the lawsuit as well. Curiously...
