    Sword & Sorcery or Bust

    Oh, that's just a personal preference of my own. Plenty of people have done it successfully, so I know it's possible. I just prefer games with more "meat" for extended, in-depth campaigns.

    Sword & Sorcery or Bust

    1. Hyperborea of course! Wait, not an option? I love SD, but would not use it for a serious and long campaign (it's my #1 goto for short ones though), so would choose BoL (despite not having tried it myself). Oh, past thread on S&S that's pretty good in case you haven't seen it. 2. In my games...

    As someone with limited time, this is awesome. Will certainly be going all in myself. 🤘

    OSR Does anybody know anything about this OSR adventure: Gods of the Forbidden North?

    Well this isn't true at all... Just because I don't agree with others that the lore needs to be changed doesn't mean I don't value their opinion. And shut them down? I engage so I can learn, also they can expound and talk more about it; kind of the opposite, right?. And "we all know why"? What...

    OSR Does anybody know anything about this OSR adventure: Gods of the Forbidden North?

    First off, that's amazing, congratulations. Clearly you don't need to take notes, haha. Second, disappointed you think the ENNIES are worthless. I think they're pretty valuable on shining a spotlight on lesser known creators and get them some much deserved recognition. Third, as for being...

    OSR Does anybody know anything about this OSR adventure: Gods of the Forbidden North?

    It won an ENNIE and is currently a Platinum best seller on Drive-Thru. Maybe you ought to be taking notes from him... :)

    OSR Does anybody know anything about this OSR adventure: Gods of the Forbidden North?

    Did not know that, thanks. Hopeful, you still got the gist of where I was going? Taking real world people/organizations and using them as a basis for whatever cool idea you want to create doesn't have to be a statement on how they really behave/operate; it could just as well be how you wished...

    AD&D 2E Huh. AD&D 2e is my favorite D&D

    @Doc_Klueless Which version of AD&D 2e? OG or the black bordered ones?

    OSR Does anybody know anything about this OSR adventure: Gods of the Forbidden North?

    I think everyone knows no organization in real life is perfect, which is why fantasy is fun way to explore versions that are. Like I know in real life pirates were terrible people that did terrible things, but there's just something about them that I love. So, I write a pirate RPG where pirates...

    OSR Does anybody know anything about this OSR adventure: Gods of the Forbidden North?

    @Afroconan Thanks for taking the time to expound on what you didn't like about the setting. That information is incredibly useful for others deciding if they want to drop money on this adventure or not. Personally, I think it's kind of refreshing to see this sort of take in fantasy. I'm pretty...

    Well okay, you twisted my arm.. I'll try and run this soon and report back periodically how it's going.

    Oh, didn't know there was any... Posting this one here because I've been really enjoying hearing the author's commentary while flipping through the adventure.

    OSR Does anybody know anything about this OSR adventure: Gods of the Forbidden North?

    Here's a pretty in-depth flip through and review. I own a lot of OSR adventures. This one is certainly the most well done in terms of art, setting, and scope. Unlike others, I find the lore to be intriguing and look forward to playing it with the Hyperborea rule set. @Afroconan has me a bit...

    OSR Dragonslayer RPG truly delivers.

    Sorry for the late reply; I've been on vacation! I've noticed over the years posting about OSR games that what one person considers "different enough" varies widely. Take Shadowdark for instance; in the same threads you'll see people complaining that it's just a carbon copy of B/X and others...

    @Zardnaar So jealous of all the wonderful pies you post here. Closest thing I have in my town is Hot Pockets. :confused:

    Cookin again

    I would go with the George personally. I would even spend a little more to get a larger 4-serving versions for the extra surface area. Even if not cooking for 4, the extra area makes meal prepping faster and better heat retention for smaller portions. If you can save up though, I think this...

    Oh, got you. What kind of meals did you have in mind? I'm thinking cast iron and/or oven > electric grill, personally. I've owned George Foreman's in the past, but got tired of them breaking on me.

    My ATK book recommends this one if you're okay with gas.
