Something for the weekend, sir? Myself and @burnafterrunning.bsky.social talk about D&D games that aren't D&D. Do you like both types of music? Country and Western? Are you a fan of both Dungeons and Dragons? We've got you covered with some better* rulesets. open.spotify.com/episode/1wzn...

Sad to see @chaosium.bsky.social has to put out notes on the use of AI for writing Community Content. The cc programs are a great way of amateurs like myself to get laboriously-crafted words into other people's hands. Getting a machine to do it just seems desperately sad. Buy some real stuff here:

Played a joyous game of Legend in the Mist from Son of Oak Game Studio today, recording for the channel. Look forward to tales of a bumbling beekeeper, sagacious mage and a happy-go-lucky chef (and boar) coming to a Youtube channel near you soon. 🐝🧙👨‍🍳🐗

With the new Neuromancer TV show on the way, I'm once again minded to look for a Cyberpunk game again. What is there currently - probably thinking more the indie lightweight space rather than hundreds of pages crunchy trad - in this kind of space I might not have heard of? (Not Red, *Borg, CBR+PNK)

I haven't read the novels, but the Slow Horses TV series continues to be largely strong. Good characters, performances, dialogue, humour. It does let itself down on the action / fighting scenes, where it can be, as the kids might say, cringe. This is my normal complaint of BBC shows, so shame really

With Shadowrun Anarchy 2e pdf out on general sale today, why not try before you buy? Or try after you buy, I'm not the cops. To see the game in action in a pacey one shot, check out the UGMs channel! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xmwd...

Manual fog of war ready for Furnace RPG con this weekend. What path will our bold adventurers take to Pteradon Peaks? Only time will tell! Stone Age Savage Worlds ready to - literally - rock.

Today marks another day around Sol, and as Logan Ninefingers would say, still alive. If you fancy celebrating with me, why not grab one of my scenarios off Drivethru (Vaesen, Savage Worlds, Call of Cthulhu, Tales From the Loop)? Maybe I'll accrue a new largely meaningless digital badge! 😅

One of the things I like about Daggerheart (and other games too, but that's the one I'm noodling with) is having a toolkit system to make opposition for the PCs and lots of great examples of what that looks like in practice. Being able to dress up jaded baddies as new things with flavour is great!

Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day to all who celebrate. In honour of this splendid occasion, why not watch a delightful Pirate Borg Actual Play and maybe pick up a copy if you haven't already frm @limithron.bsky.social ? youtu.be/d7ce5a6Uoqo?... #talklikeapirate #pirates #ttrpg

Recording done on another podcast tonight, look out for thoughts on Daggerheart, 13th Age, Nimble and more coming to your earballs soon. (For a given value of soon, the Editing Kobolds are nothing if not lackadaisical.) Also managed a little bit of prep for AGON to be run at Furnace next month. 😁

If you want an idea of what QuestWorlds is like before you buy it for much cheapness, take a look at our fast-paced Actual Play where we set Age of Vikings setting ablaze with the QW rules set for some high-octane narrative adventures! youtu.be/0R1QtixmQRw?...

Lovely to get our AP channel mentioned in the Chaosium blog today, lovely folk should check out some of the great games we've demoed over the last few months! www.chaosium.com/blogsignific...

It's Self-Promo-Saturday and we've got a delightful episode of The Smart Party with Mike Mason and Paul Fricker from @chaosium.bsky.social talking about their recent expedition to Gen Con and Necronomicon, writing for Miskatonic Repository and much more! open.spotify.com/episode/16E5...

Hey ttrpg people, hit me with your best Mothership #TTRPG third party adventure recs! Why its good is great too - and ideally not the obvious stuff (bug hunt, gradient descent, etc)

Great weekend at Owlbear & Wizards Staff this weekend. A game of Dolmenwood to try it out and then I ran Dragonbane in the afternoon (only one character murdered). Plus a nice curry on Friday and catching up in the pub on Saturday. Good to see some old friends and meet new ones 😁

Even though British and so genetically disinclined towards self promotion, it is nevertheless #selfpromosaturday and so I'm legally obliged to tell people I have a splendid Regency Cthulhu scenario on @drivethrurpg.com for your delectation: legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/5759...

Still not sure if I'll use maps for Dragonbane at the weekend for Owlbear and Wizards Staff, but I've had some lonely fun putting things together anyway 😄

We've had our latest Unconventional GMs Board Meeting, me and @evilgaz.bsky.social , and have some plans to bring more <2hr Actual Plays with pace vim and vigour to you - but what other TTRPGs should we feature for your viewing pleasure?

If you're looking for spooky scenarios as we approach autumn, @drivethrurpg.com has a Cosmic Horror Sale on right now. They've even knocked a huge chunk of my lovely Regency Cthulhu scenario. Rush over and grab it as a bargain! www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...

National Flag Day over there, thinking of all my Ukrainian friends and gamer acquaintances 💙💛

Guess the year competition! Neither me nor my co-host can get in those t-shirts any more. In fact, even a few years ago they were more like crop tops. First seminar at Dragonmeet. Bonus points for guessing the topic.

Struggling to think of a more East Midlands pint

Watching the South Park "World of Warcraft" episode to get my Daggerheart prep head space organised. Am I doing it right?

Great catching up with @trvshane.bsky.social talking about games, life and everything. Online gaming isn't as good as in-person, but it's better than none. Similarly, zoom isnt as good as meeting up face to face, but it's better than not connecting. As Bob Hoskins once said, it's good to talk.

Watching things like UFC you recognise that it's not grappling rules in #ttrpgs that are boring, it's the activity... More seriously, are there any good grappling rules? It feels like they should be an extended contest or you should use conflict resolution. Using task-based mechanics is unhelpful.

This week, Showing off a subreddit I set-up dedciated to human made ttrpg things, and it has a self promo saturday thread there as well! www.reddit.com/r/HumanMadeT...

I'm clearly a big fan and advocate of Pendragon #ttrpg, and have run it regularly at conventions for (checks notes) decades (😲), so great to see the new edition doing better than Lancelot at a jousting tourney. What thoughts does everyone have on the new version? Or if you're new, what do you like?

Fun mini-painter video on the #CountBinface model for any non-UK friends to get a primer (see what I did there) on what's going on in UK politics today and how classically British comedy, toy soldiers, nice people and a healthy contempt for populist grifters can do a bit of good youtu.be/3iBZ78u6YA8

It's sad personal times are the minute, and the world has gone to hell in a hand basket, but here to cheer me up is the slip case edition of Cold City and Hot War. About conflicting agendas, trust and the end times. Erm. Anyway, as the man said, if you're going through hell, keep going.

apropos of stuff, if around 150-200 people BASED IN THE UK would like to take out a, remarkably we should say, good value subscription to Wyrd Science on this the 11th of August 2026 it would be pretty pretty pretty pretty good 👍 wyrd-science.subsail.com/subscribe/

Missing multiplication symbols in my game is my karma for using actual math symbols instead of capital Xs. That's what I get for trying to be special. The Fighter Wizard Elf PDF is here, and buyers get the updated version for free when it's released. 2/2 #ttrpg www.drivethrurpg.com/de/product/5...

I guess while I'm on the topic of Vaesen-like adventures I should pimp my scenario Unbearable (bear pun entirely intended) as some lovely person bought a copy of it recently and it was my first mystery for that setting. Must do more soon! legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/3638...
