GURPS at the high-end. Savage Worlds at the low-end. The sweet spot is Pathfinder 1e core rulebook.

My Foundry VTT group is starting a GURPS Dungeon Fantasy based game next week. I’d like to get more than 6 weeks of play out of it. I have an irregular Friday night live group at the FLGS. I’d like to find a way to make it more regular. I’m really the problem here not the players. I need to...

Gaming- commission continent, region, city maps for something I have in mind. After that pay down some debt so I can one day the things I really want to do. Boring I know.

I used to go with BX but in the last couple of years I’ve moved to Beck Me.

Run PF1 in an E7 or E& format?

I’m gearing up to run Lost City if Barakus and the Tomb of Abysthor combined in GURPs Dungeon Fantasy. I typically don’t run games with such large dungeons so we’ll see how it goes. I’ll be dropping clues with the cultists if Orcus in both dungeons that lead back to RA. We’ll see if the group...

GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Session Zero.

1. Fantasy with a focus on normal to mildly heroic. No more powerful than say 7-10th level D&D 3.5 characters with below average WBL. 2. Science Fantasy with a focus on weird. Love Thunddar and Numenera and pretty much anything in between. 3. Action/Pulp horror. Two-Fisted Masks of...

Soulbound has its own system available from a Cubicle 7 with good support as well. At least a full rules system and I believe the basic box setting/adventure is available as well. Note these are not free, these are the official systems and modules...

It’s fantastic. I have core, the starter box and the first two enemy within volumes. Works great. Automation is top notch. Art and text all included in journal entries. It makes running the game a breeze.

Good advice. I have both Coriolis and Symbaroum and would not bring either to the table until all the setting changes meta-plot adventure were available.

Player - I want to be a player in a well run, lore heavy Earthdawn or WHFRP 4e game. GM - I want to run a Ruins of Adventure type game as an above ground mega dungeon or Numenera as a setting with a different game system.

SWADE Nights Black Agents Finished the Zalozhniy Quartet!

Agreed. I enjoyed it while I read it. None of it stuck with me long after I was done. In contrast, and forgive me @Reynard, I re-read Dune every year and get something new from it.

Completely agree on the book organization. It’s just not put together in a table friendly way.

Shame they didn't take to SWADE. I really feel like it addresses most of the common issues you have. With that many new player did you use the raise calculator sheet or the combat handouts? I find with new players they help. I'm surprised you had that many lengthy combats honestly. I...

Dr. Who, in total is overrated. This is an honest opinion too. Not just an attempt at a hot take. 2nd edition D&D is a hot mess but might be underrated. Netflix’s adaptation of The Witcher has one good season.

Aspirational D&D - Planescape. I don’t think it’s really playable in D&D but it’s fascinating to read. Playable D&D - Grey Box era Forgotten Realms. Playable, full of hooks, plenty of room to make it your own. D&D adjacent - Earthdawn great, playable setting with deep lore and rationals...

Mecha Dwarves: so devoted to the making of things they remake their body using clock work gizmos. Think steampunk cysberwear dwarves.

That’s not a bad idea. Run shorter campaigns as seasons. 6-8-12 sessions then switch. Try and tell a complete short story arc. You can always come back for a season 2. You can treat character advancement however you want. SWADE has recommendations for an advancement every session if you...
