Maybe check out XRPs Down the Shadowvein and The Mouth of the Shadowvein It's hexcrawl-ish, that follows and underground river to various locations of interest. Like most Advanced Adventures stuff they are absolutely packed with content. Technically this follows The Pod-Caverns of the...

You are most welcome. Thank you for providing physical space for people to enjoy RPGs. I figured I'd provide a brief mention of some of the titles we have. I have a least one from each publisher, but there are many more titles: Like 5e D&D but looking for rules for a modern setting? Check...

They moved to Yonge Street, just north of Dundas about . . . 7 years ago? Black Canary cafe is part of it. There's a nice place to sit drink tea, look over the street below and read your recent purchases. I had my Toronto launch party for Simple Superheroes in that location in 2016 :) That...

I have always loved Friendly Local Game Stores. I suspect I never would have run my own game sessions without having stumbled into a FLGS a year or so after my initial exposure to D&D. For my Master’s thesis I visited just over 50 game and comic stores in the Greater Toronto Area. With many...

I love trying out new systems. It is one of my chief reasons to go to conventions (that and running my own game.) They are the best way to capture that amazing feeling you first got when you played your very first game - - you see a horizon of new possibilities opening up before you.

Just to elaborate on the Hackmaster recomendation: Hackmaster doesn't use "turns" or rounds, it uses seconds, meaning that no one is "just standing around" you can always choose to move, change what you are doing etc. Different weapons and spells have different seconds counts between uses/when...

They'll be growing pains for the first little while. A lot of this is about everyone communicating expectations, as well as what can be done. Some debriefing post and pre game can help. Let there be in game consequences - but let the players know why those consequences happen. This is the big...

Havard, somehow I missed it this year. So no special get-together. However, now that I have had this reminder: The Compose Dream Games Marketplace is happy to offer a 20% discount today and tomorrow for Dave Arneson game day. Just use the coupon code "Arneson" Thanks Dave, for being the...

I have often found that for Superhero gaming, 2 players works great. You can spend more time exploring the people they know (the supporting cast of characters). The intrigue and nuance of having friends or family who turn out to be villains, and in general exploring what makes your heroes tick...

Gave it a read. Thanks for sharing Dan. In some ways seems fairly similar to his Centurion game (in terms of how characters get defined), though that uses pretty different die mechanics, and has some stuff about duty, valour and honour.

Awe, I'm going to miss it. Would have liked to hear more about how it differs from prior games.

Simple Superheroes Issue #0 was released July 23rd, 2016. It is available in the Compose Dream Games RPG Marketplace, at Indie Press Revolution. The first supplement Simple Superheroes #1: Our Genetics is targeted at a December/January release.

Thanks I have fixed this. :) Update: I've dropped the "thread count" for rpol.net since what they were really counting was "games" which includes multiple threads. I've also added Atlas Games forum and Diatribe the New Zealand LARP community. Here's a handy link to the visualization.

Three days to go on our Kickstarter (ends Monday at 10:52pm) so go fund it! I'm doing a QA session on the RPGnet channel this evening 7pm EST. http://tinyurl.com/rpgnetchat Come ask questions!

Some folks found the audio on the above link to be fairly quite. Here's a link to a series of videos with better sound. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5sx-HHDKgg25_G0BZTMVhcj8g7z33I04 Character Creation Instinct 5min Simple Superhero Die Mechanics 3min Character Creation: Eagle Man...

The kickstarter for Simple Superheroes is going very well. We've already met our first stretch goal! So I've been working on including the mini-scenarioLe Jardin du Ciel. A daring robbery by the Emerald Hawk of a charity banquet at a posh skyscraper restaurant. This section also provides...

Update Added Fear The Boot podcast's forum

There'll welcome to do so. The data is all on Tableau Public, so it should be relatively easy to export and work off of. Update I've added The Tangled Web which seems to be a play-by-post and VTT focused forum. Easy link to the data map.

Just a quick note to let those who were interested in this know that Simple Superheroes is now on kickstarter! fireinthedust Zerith Jemal Walking Dad -- hmm its been so long since I've used mention tags that I can't seem to get this to work. Ah well. Thanks for the interest in the game.
