Well it reads like it'd be fun for a wide audience, that seems like a premise that could be particuarly fun for teens. I know my daughter, who enjoyed playing then running Bubblegumshoe in her teens, would have enjoyed it. It's been a long time since I played Trail of Cthulhu, but this sounds...

I got the free PDFs for TotV and I've run a number of campaigns in Kobold's Midgard setting, so I'm interested. But no kidding about the shipping taking some of the shine off - it amounts to $25 in my Canadian currencty and added to the base costs brings the total cost to $52 CDN. That's not...

I'm interested in M&M 4e, but unfortunately I'm still feeling the burn from GR over the Dragon Age boxsets. It took a painful 5 years for the 3rd and final boxset to be released, which finally allowed GMs to run campaigns up to level 20. GR blamed it on delays to approvals by Bioware, but I see...

I noticed that the Starfinder 2e Player Core DLC is now available for 1 of my VTTs (Fantasy Grounds), for $65 in my Canadian currency ($50 USD). That's much better than the best $80 CDN price I can find in my country for the hardcover. Considering Paizo offers the PDF for free when buying DLC...

I wondered more than once wether this TTRPG has a connection to Record of Lodoss War, and I can now see it does. Ive seen what looked like official maps for Lodoss & its bigger continent (can't recal its name) so Im guessing those were from an eaier edition of this game. My kids & I are big fans...

Well...a LGS in my Canadian city has the SF2E Player Core and GM Core preorders listed at $104 CDN. So I imagine when the Bestiary arrives it'll be an equivalent price, making for a GM's overall buy in cost of over $300 - ouch! The stores here in Canada that are focused more on online sales are...

I mainly just characterise them as TTRPGs that can give you a playing in a Fantasty world experience, similar to how D&D does. My gotos for alternatives are Dragon/Fantasy AGE, True20 and 13th Age. T20 and 13A both have a core d20 dice and T20 was derived from D&D 3e but still a very different...

Oh cool. Other than London, which cities in ths British Empire?

I've just started running 13A 1e for the 1st time in 4 years. I ran a 1-shot adventure (Wreck of Volund's Glory) for a group of my neighbors, of which only 1 had previous TTRPG experience. I'm running it in the Midgard World setting thanks to the terrific adaptation of the Midgard Bestiary and...

Other than TTRPG specific folders on my Windows desktop and laptop, with a typical organization of \adventures, \settings, \maps and \homebrewed content subfolders, I don't really have a management system. As a former software developer, I've been reading and creating PDFs since the early 90s...

I bought the Cuthulhu Dark Ages book and I'm tempted to get both Gaslight as a FLGS has them for good prices. My problem with CDA, is that it's a very England-centric treatment of the DAs and Gaslight seems to be the same. The Dark Ages campaign I homebrewed is set in France in the early DA's...

I'll have you know, I higly resemble that remark! :giggle:

For the WotC adventure maps, you need to buy the bundles on the D&D store, as those include both the printed and digital publications. As an example, here's the bundle for Dungeon Delves. IME though, it's not too big a problem if you only have the printed, as maps within the books can be...

Haven't been in that situation, but were I to be, SWADE would probably be my go-to. Mostly because I've homebrewed a lot for it and also have a decent library of 1st & 3rd party content for it, across virtually all genres. It's also one of the TTRPGs that I feel comforable creating NPC/Extras on...
