Last week was a little light on releases, I'm assuming because the kids are heading back to school and summer is winding down. However, there's still some interesting releases (I think) that I've included. Liminal Horror is an, I think, oft-overlooked gem of a system, but there is a Liminal...

Let's jump right in and see what's new, shall we? BlueMountainBooks has released a free hexcrawl on itch, inspired by Luke Gearing's Wolves Upon the Coast. At the Base of Blue Mountain includes seven dungeons, nearly sixty hexes, and more. Ventis was an entry in the Vaarn Summer jam, and is a...

It's the second Monday in August. GenCon is over, and here in the States kids are getting ready to head back to school. New releases seem pretty light this week, but let's see what we can cover. I mentioned a new game called Dungeons of Galora a few months back; there's now a free version...

I'm back after a week off, and I'm sure a number of readers are waking up bleary-eyed this morning after a long weekend at GenCon. Looks like Shadowdark (deservedly) cleaned up at the Ennies. I'd also like to call attention to: Eat the Reich. Hexcrawl Toolbox. Cloud Empress (sadly, we're out...

Welcome everyone to the fourth news roundup for July. I will be on vacation the next week, so there will be no Roundup then. I hope everyone has a great couple of weeks, and I'll catch everyone for August 5th's review. As I'm writing this I realized I'd like to make a clarification about how I...

I don't know about where you are, but it is hot here as I'm writing this: close to 100 degrees F. Great weather to stay inside, under a ceiling fan or in air conditioning, and check out some new OSR and indie releases, which, to be honest, are still a bit light this week. It's something I've...

Welcome to the second news Roundup in July. SabreCon2024 is officially over, and it was both tiring and a lot of fun. It is perhaps good that the last week was light on new releases. No doubt the long holiday weekend in the US had a lot to do with it. Anyway, it'll be a short Roundup this week...

Welcome to the first Roundup of July. This is going to be on the shortish side: we've got some illness in the family and work kind of exploded on me last week. The big news, gaming-wise, is that today is the one-year anniversary of Sabre Games opening. I've been plugging SabreCon2024, the...

The Into the Wild Omnibus is today's Deal of the Day at 60% off. This book combines A Guide to Thieves' Guilds, Filling in the Blanks, and Into the Wild, providing everything you need to run a high-level or hexcrawl campaign. DriveThruRPG It's written for Old School Essentials, but is easy to...

Sabre's one-year birthday is on Monday, and to celebrate we're having a mini-convention from the 4th-7th (with cake on Saturday, the 6th!). If you're in or near central Virginia we'd love to see you!

I just published a print interview I conducted with Paolo Greco, author of The Book of Gaub and the recently released Wulfwald. Meet the Publisher: Paolo Greco

May and the first part of June were pretty slow with new releases, but the pace picked up last week and looks to continue at the same pace this week. Maybe the heat wave gripping the eastern US is keeping folks inside and writing? I'm not familiar with S. Murphy's work: they wrote a...

The pre-order store for the BX Advanced Bestiary, Vol. 2, is now live. I've never done a pre-order store on Backerkit, so I hope I've done it properly. The pdf is out right now, with print versions coming in about a month. By ordering through the pre-order store you can get all of the items at...

Welcome to the third Roundup in June. I mentioned a few weeks back that we're having a little mini convention at Sabre from July 4th - 7th in celebration of our one year anniverary of being in business: I've posted a schedule to our blog with our events. If you're going to be in the area during...

Glad to hear. We should be getting copies of BtP in stock anyday now, along with Wulfwald.

Lots of stuff happened last week, including North Texas RPGcon, one of the pre-emininent conventions focusing on OSR-style gaming. One of these days I'll get a chance to make it to a convention. As the author of this series I allow myself to take the liberty of promoting certain products: this...

It's the first Monday in June. This year is just flying by. I'd mentioned Evlyn Moreau's new release, The Choir, a few weeks ago. I'm pleased to annouce that Sabre Games is currently the sole US distributor for the print version of the game, and Ratti Incantati is the Canadian distributor...

It's the last Monday in May, and in the States it is also Memorial Day. There are a number of interesting and cool-looking projects coming up on Kickstarter, and I'll be covering those when they go live. Until then, here's what I found from last week. Not a new game, but one that is new to me...

I've done a bunch of conversions from later editions in OSE, including bard, monk, binder, um, quite a lot, actually. Warlock, sorcerer, hexblade, etc.
