    How Will The New Tariffs Affect TTRPG Prices?

    It depends, if a publishes is importing dice (say) to their warehouse for later retail, it’s the "replacement value" which is to say the manufacturing cost. But if you are a customer in the US buying from overseas, your import duties are on the full cost. EDIT, I didn’t,t realise there were 45...

    ALIEN RPG Launches New Kickstarter

    Yeah, speaking as one of the co-authors, that’s exactly what it was designed for. Indeed, before it became the core book adventure, we had been asked to write it for UK Games Expo, where Free League had taken a stand partly to promote the pre-order. We chose Hadley’s Hope precisely because...

    ALIEN RPG Launches New Kickstarter

    We are just about to ship our, much smaller, KS, and I can tell you shipping costs are much higher than we estimated last summer. Especially to the US, where European shippers have to take into account increased tariffs, both those we know about and those that might come up… But these are only...

    What Are The Current Freelance Writing Rates In The TTRPG Industry?

    This is very interesting. On our podcast, I had a rant about rates being depressed by eager amateurs (like myself!) undervaluing our work just to see our name in print. And urged even dilitante TTRPG writers (including me) to charge properly. Your comment about Community content makes we wonder...

    Nominate your favorite TTRPG podcast of 2021

    My favourite RPG this year as been Frankenstein’s RPG RPG Podcast Grognard | Frankensteinrpg.co.uk if only for the crazy idea of making an RPG from parts of others. It could be better. A better dynamic mic might not make quite so much of Dave’s breathing in. And they might make better choices...

    The One Ring/Adventures in Middle-earth License Goes to Free League

    I think your local Gaming Store must be not great. The only Free League game that I never saw at my store is ironically my favourite, Coriolis. Oh and in other news, their Alien game is in the top five best selling games, you don’t get there without being in a few stores.

    OSR Review of Mörk Borg, a Doom Metal Album of an OSR RPG

    You need nothing more than the book. Though some dark and crazy scenarios would probably work with it. For example, I think some of the Trilema adventures would work with it. There is a thriving fan-made community for it. All the supplements are free online.

    Space is Not the Only Thing Trying to Kill You in the Alien RPG

    Yeah, but the mechanic came out of wanting to add polyhedral dice into the system to make it feel like a game from the eighties
