Message: <blockquote data-quote="thirdkingdom" data-source="post: 9365114" data-attributes="member: 78442">It's the first Monday in June. This year is just flying by. I'd mentioned Evlyn Moreau's new release, <a href="https://mobile-hut.itch.io/the-choir" target="_blank">The Choir</a>, a few weeks ago. I'm pleased to annouce that Sabre Games is currently the <a href="https://www.thirdkingdomgames.com/product-page/the-choir" target="_blank">sole US distributor for the print version of the game</a>, and Ratti Incantati is the Canadian distributor (although it doesn't seem to be up on their website yet). Let's dive in and see what was released last week, shall we?<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The Merry Mushmen, of Knock and Black Sword Hack fame, have just launched a <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/896102915/an-adventure-double-feature-by-the-merry-mushmen" target="_blank">Kickstarter for a pair of adventures</a>, one of which is billed as a sequel to their lauded first adventure, Ragged Hollow.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">A new (to me) publisher, Molten Blast, is <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/greatosradvs/bestiarium-undead-and-dragons-for-old-school-dandd" target="_blank">Kickstarting a bestiary</a> for old-school dragons and undead. It looks like this one adapts a previous release, which was for 5e, and converts the creatures to standard, system-agnostic, OSR format.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">I've been really impressed with Emiel Boven's Electrum Archive zine, and saw that issue 2 is now <a href="https://emielboven.itch.io/tea-02" target="_blank">available in pdf on itch</a>. We're Kickstarter backers, and I hope to have the print version of Issue 2 in stock as soon as it is available.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">I'd mentioned Chaoclypse's new zine, Chaos Crawler, a few weeks back. It's now available on <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/482841/Chaos-Crawl-1?affiliate_id=253473" target="_blank">Drivethrurpg as a pdf</a>, and sounds like the author is exploring some print options. This is a 28-page, wide-ranging zine with a generous splash of gonzo.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Omnik has released <a href="https://omnik.itch.io/wander" target="_blank">Wander</a>, a really neat-looking solo rpg about reactivating ancient pacts with spirits, fey creatures, and giants.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Awhile back, when Cairn 2e was Kickstarting, Yochai Gal released a starter adventure to go along with it called <a href="https://www.lulu.com/shop/yochai-gal/rise-of-the-blood-olms/paperback/product-nvwqz8v.html?page=1&pageSize=4" target="_blank">Rise of the Blood Olms</a>. They've now made this adventure available via Lulu priced at cost. Lulu is a great option for folks overseas, since there are a number of printers located throughout the world and it can really help reduce shipping costs.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">I'm not familiar with the works of post world games, but they've just released <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/483033/snickersnee?affiliate_id=253473" target="_blank">Snickersnee</a> on Drivethru, a minimalist fantasy game with definite NSR sensibilities. I'm curious to check it out; it's outside of my usual style of play, but it can be a good thing to step outside your comfort zone every so often.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/482951/pervasive-corruption-bpx-dcp07?affiliate_id=253473" target="_blank">Passive Corruption</a> is a short, interesting-looking release for DCC that adds several traits to the game that can be used to mechanically add a grimdark feel to the system.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Pirate Borg gets a lot of praise for its nautical rules and tone, and Beau Yarbrough has just released <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/482844/five-lost-souls-a-pirate-borg-bestiary?affiliate_id=253473" target="_blank">Five Lost Souls</a>, a bestiary for Mork Borg that adds five new foes for the players to encounter.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Awkward Turtle has released <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/482813/wizard-trash-goblin-treasure?affiliate_id=253473" target="_blank">Wizard Trash, Goblin Treasure</a>, a short game of navigating a goblins and a wizard with a penchant for conjuring goods from our world as a form of retail therapy. It features art by Nate Treme, who is always a great illustrator for projects.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/482815/the-doom-of-blackwinter-old-school-essentials-edition?affiliate_id=253473" target="_blank">The Doom of Blackwinter</a> is an adventure for Old School Essentials that contains a lot of material -- over 70-pages, including a city that can be used as a home base and introduction to the author's setting.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">I also totally forgot to post this, but the <a href="https://www.thirdkingdomgames.com/product-page/into-the-wild-omnibus-1" target="_blank">Into the Wild Omnibus offset edition is now available</a>. It's a 390+ page, full color, sewn binding hardbound with velvet ribbon bookmark.</li> </ul></blockquote>
