Grappling with ancient knife spirit. and (second game): Miraculous defenestration with no injuries.

Jellies, soporific fog, dragon temple.

Not a bad choice to print on a GM’s mug. When is your first session? Please report back with details and lessons learned. I’ve been intrigued by the conversation here.

Ahhhh. Now I can stop changing my mind about my pledge level. :)

We're likely to see the 11th PDF unlock in the next few hours ($878 to go). We still need another 115 backers to unlock Templar's Gold. $3 for a dozen high-quality supplements. You know you want to!

Hmm. This doesn't match any version of the module that I've seen. There are lots of secret doors. There is a false tomb hidden behind a few secret doors, but it was intended to fool would-be looters. It had apparently already been looted so that thieves would leave. Other than that, it's quite...

Yes! The Keep itself is amazing and the cult temple was always my favorite part of the caves. I just reread the original recently. Definitely a lot of great material in there.

You know, after reading this thread, I wonder how they would hold up now. The last time I ran them using D&D rules was in the early '90s. I converted the pyramid one (Pharaoh?) to GURPS and used it a few years later, but it was heavily modified. But I do have a soft spot for good dungeon...

Heh. I was so disappointed when I noticed the date, but then I thought it might rekindle. I have fond memories of this series.

I've never run the series through to completion, but I've run the first few adventures many times over the years (using both D&D and GURPS). I always loved the flavor and many of the gimicks, though I modified things extensively to fit whatever campaign I was running. I don't think I've gotten...

Templar's Gold does sound cool. Bizarrely, despite playing GURPS since the '90s, I've never used the gun rules! I have never run or played in a modern game. Time to remedy that.

I was going to ask which supplement sounds most interesting to folks here, but I can't even settle on one of them myself. I keep changing my mind. So I'll just mention a few things that have me very excited about this set: Two-Page Dungeons — I love reading adventures, but Steve Jackson Games...

The DFRPG boxed set is one of the best items ever produced by SJG. I just ran a week-long RPG summer camp using the boxed set. It was fantastic.

Electric jellies do the mambo. [First in-person too… so good!]

Giant beer in the piano.

Maybe this isn't precisely a sale, but it's a ridiculously good deal: Steve Jackson Games' GURPS 2021 PDF Challenge $3 currently gets you three four five six seven eight nine ten PDFs. If it does as well as the 2020 challenge, you'll end up with a dozen PDFs for the same price by the time all...

This was definitely our style back in the day. Everyone in my circles tended to get attached to their characters and the evolving campaign and wanted to keep the story going. We were constantly stringing adventures together. My current campaign has been running for 16 months thus far. Our...

Catfolk dangling in a well.

Yes, I suppose so. I’ve also had plenty of allegiance shifts in my games. Sometimes a single roll does suffice. There’s something I can’t quite put my finger on about when it feels appropriate and dramatically satisfying to handle something as a single action versus a series of actions.
