    New Microlite20 thread

    I need to ask someone here a favor in case anyone is also active on the M20 forums. A long while back, I put together an M20 version of Star Wars. I was slowly bit by bit working on a PDF for it (with pictures and starship rules) but I teach in the day and work on grad school projects by...

    Remember the FATAL RPG? Here's the music video

    Hey thanks! I've been getting messages asking about where the images came from, and I'm going back through old and new threads trying to remember where in the heck I first saw them. If I can find them again, I'll post the links in the comments section under the video. EDIT: Okay, found two...

    Remember the FATAL RPG? Here's the music video

    Yeah, the music kills me. I'm almost being literal there- when I check back for YouTube messages, I make sure the volume is off whenever I check that one! As for the pictures- I collect bizarre/disturbing images to use in CoC games. I come across some of them randomly, and pull others from...

    Remember the FATAL RPG? Here's the music video

    Oh, God, the art *in* the book was executed about as well as the theme song. These were images I found that mirror the hopeless corruption of the psyche the game inspires when trying to make sense of the rules or subject material. They have nothing to do with the actual content of the game-...

    Remember the FATAL RPG? Here's the music video

    If you aren't familiar with what the FATAL RPG is, just walk away from this thread now and never look back. Ever. Consider yourself very lucky. If you do remember it, I've tried to capture the godawfulness of the game in this music video: (Warning: Disturbing images and painfully horrible...

    TSR Example from the worst TSR adventure module(s) ever published

    This is one of my favorite threads on the *entire internet* and I'm so happy to see it still around. For those of you who missed it the first time, it spawned another thread called "Let's write a bad module" in 2005...

    [Microlite] Star Wars

    I went ahead and put up the edited version here: Microlite20 • View topic - M20SWv1 (The next-to-final version of Microlite Star Wars) It will take longer than I thought to get the Starship section ready, so I'll get feedback on what I can for now.

    [Microlite] Star Wars

    (Cross-posted from RPGnet forums) In the next few days, I'm going to post my Microlite20 Star Wars conversion. Oddly, this is not a distilled version of any one existing published Star Wars game (although it would be awesome if someone else wanted to make one.) Rather, it is a...

    You D&D people are going to hell!

    Hell is actually the internet. When we die, we will all burn in the fires of the Eternal Pointless Flame War because of our wanton dice rolling and collective murder of Blackleaf. But at least we’ll have free p0rn.

    DM Advice: handling 'he can't talk to me like that' ~cuts NPC throat~ players.

    Honestly, the PC actions in this case strike me as more stupid than evil. Therefore, the solution is quite simple: Forget good. Forget evil. Run a “stupid” game, since that’s what the players seem to want anyway. Their actions will undoubtably attract the attention of Moronus, God of...

    New Microlite20 thread

    Okay, I got buried under Real Life ™ for a while there, but I should be back to gaming again soon enough. I'm still obsessed with the idea of an M20 Star Wars, and these notes you jotted down look like a great starting point. Thank you! I want to iron out a few other details… Droids...

    Games you thought you'd like and hated and games you thought you'd hate and liked

    Thought I would love, but ended up hating: 1. Star Wars: Saga Edition: I thought that I was getting a cleaned up, faster, more innovative version of D20. What I got was something that True20 had already done before, only better. 2. D20 Modern: I remember being so psyched about this game...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Just started a thread on RPGnet, trying to collect goofy random encounter ideas for the M20 version of Return to the Throne of the Pit of the Tomb of the Temple of the Lair of the Castle of Nostalgic Death: http://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?p=8420319&posted=1#post8420319

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    D20 Microlite became our new "official" default D&D game over the holidays. At first everyone seemed to think of the game as a "cute" novelty item worth playing once or twice to re-live 1E nostalgia. However, once things got rolling, we couldn't make ourselves stop! We made gagillians of...
