Here is a closer view of the map (and each panel is a page in the book so you don't have to get the map separately but not sure why you wouldn't want it). If the PCs start out in Violet City they have everything north to draw on to create characters. After any urban shenanigans they engage in...

Good questions. The default journey is from the cities at the top to the Black City at the bottom. The map depicts various roads that head that way. The areas outside the map are extremely dangerous. If the PCs go there I'd likely pull out some Gamma World creatures and ruins. The default...

I like the idea of running it with Troika although it seems to have a serviceable system. I put the pen next to the map for scale:

Dungeons & Dragons Fifth Edition squeezes in this week with a screen, dice, and artbook. Ultraviolet Grasslands is back in a second edition and I ordered the six foot map. SoulMuppet Publishing has support for both Best Left Buried and Orbital Blues as well as a new RPG. Vampire: The Masquerade...

Forbidden Lands includes 23 monsters in the core box set. The Book of Beasts introduces 28 more with random encounters along with additional rules. Any GM writing their own adventures using Forbidden Lands is going to find practical value in this book. My thanks to Free League for providing a...

The Pendragon Starter Set combines a well-researched Dark Age RPG with a more egalitarian mythic setting to bring the world of Arthur Pendragon to life (and modified as needed by each GM). The juxtaposition of authentic arms and armor, horses, and other technology with a society of higher ideals...

I'm really looking forward to Longshot City.

This week Dungeons & Dragons Fifth Edition gets an updated third party monster manual, a creepy theater district, and a Cthulhu Mythos DM screen. The OSR gets adventures and more monsters. Shadowrun - Sixth World gets a supplement and there are two unique new RPGs as well. Note: RPG Print News...

It's $80 with standees and $140 with miniatures.

$140 with the minis but it is supported. The core set is getting another supplement and the minis from that one look great:

Many great offerings this week. Astra Fauna: Expeditions looks amazing and Thorgal and Clerk and Dagger are especially intriguing.

Forbidden Lands gets a new setting and a book of fearsome monsters. Dungeons & Dragons Fifth Edition gets a deluxe adventure, a skirmish game, packs of miniatures, character folios, and a pad of mapping paper. Tuber dudes threaten or ally with the PCs in an adventure for Basic and Expert...

Liminal is an urban fantasy RPG set in London with PCs of supernatural backgrounds like werewolves and wizards vying with various powerful factions. I have a group of mixed skill: all the way from a brand new player to old hands with decades of play under their belts. I went looking for a system...

The Pendragon Starter Set is full of adventure and support for GMs looking to try out the system which is related to the Basic Roleplaying family of RPGs. There is also a Pendragon Quick-Start. Pendragon line editor David Larkins was kind enough to talk with me about the box set which releases...

Thanks. Fixed.

Triangle Agency looks really interesting. Anytime adventures are included a new RPG is much more likely to peak my interest and I like the genre. Rolling d4s would be a pain but I get why they did it. I find it hard to believe three people pledged $1,665 for the ripple gun but if it brings them...
