    Shadowdark Setting Looks Set To Be 2025's First Million Dollar TTRPG Crowdfunder

    The nice thing is that it is easily hackable. If you wanted to include some additional character bits you could easily do that. We're 9 sessions in (running Arden Vul) and I've added a few things but not too much.

    D&D General Favorite Iconic D&D Metropolis

    I chose Absalom over Sharn but just barely. Specifically Absalom from the early PF1/Pathfinder Society days.

    Shadowdark Arcane Library Western Reaches KS

    Premium Everything + Accessories. So far I'm getting alot of mileage out of Shadowdark, running Arden Vul with it. I like to support creators who make something useful for my table.

    D&D General My Requirements to Run a 1-20 Adventure.

    I’m the former GM of my Groupon my opportunities to actually be a player are strictly limited. For a long time o thought I would never pay to be a player but I’ve changed my mind on that. I would pay to be a player in a WHFRP game. I would pay to be a player in a full run of a Pathfinder AP...

    TTRPG Genres You Just Can't Get Into -and- Tell Me Why I'm Wrong About X Genre I Don't Like

    I thought that too and then I ran some Nights Black Agents. Totally changed my view. I run it in Savage Worlds for system comfort reasons but it’s native Gunshoe system works well enough.

    TTRPG Genres You Just Can't Get Into -and- Tell Me Why I'm Wrong About X Genre I Don't Like

    Supers and Romance for me. Powered people I can do, comic book style Supers I can’t. I’m not a comics guy, I don’t get the tropes, I can’t tell what makes a Supers story a Supers story. I have zero interest in Romance rpgs. Just none.

    It's GM's Day! Tell us about your first GM!

    Mine was also my Dad. He had a regular D&D group on Friday nights, army guys and their spouses. When I got to HS we moved to Germany and he ran 2e games for my friends and I. It’s probably why I still have a soft spot for 2e.

    Shadowdark Arcane Library Western Reaches KS

    Thanks. I’m running them through Arden Vul with Shadowdark now. Was just thinking about other options for when someone dies. I’ll take a closer look at them.

    I’ve got the current Cursed Scroll volumes but haven’t dug into then. How do the newer classes compare to the core ones?

    Deadlands: Lost Colony (SWADE) Post-Mortem

    I like to use the full combat rules for major set pieces. Often combined with a Dramatic Task. For non-consequential fights it’s a Quick Encounter or Dramatic Task depending on the situation. Those rules work pretty well.

    D&D General What Are Your Strengths and Aspirations as a DM?

    I’m pretty about being open minded about what we are going to play and how we go about it. I pretty good pace, both in combat and outside it, and keeping things moving. I’m working in role playing, accents, and h pique NPC traits in my current game and that’s getting better. I’m terrible...

    A decent Dresden adaption. I would not call the existing one successful. One season per book.

    Shadowrun, Battletech, and a cartoon starring the Paizo PF1 Core Rulebook iconic. I’d mine the adventure paths for story content.

    New Year, New Campaign: Crown and Skull

    I have the first Crown and Skull book and have been waiting for the second one. I’m not hooked on the system but the way the book treats placing characters in the world, and the way locations are handled is fantastic.

    What is/are your most recent TTRPG purchase(s)?

    I have the three book set, companion and the Sunday book. I don’t have all the side missions. I’d gotten it a while ago to run in Savage Worlds but got side- trekked and have decided it’s my big campaign for 2026. I’ll run a couple of intro adventures (1-3 sessions max) in 2025 to get a...
