My first 5 TTRPGs, in the order I played them: 1. OD&D Cyclopedia 2. Rifts 3. HERO System 4. D&D 3rd Edition 5. Fate … One of these is not like the other.

My Ewok deck is complete! Behold my matching @gamegenic.com deckbox and playmat! It's my first time not netdecking, so fingers crossed this plays well later this week!

I wish there were more rpg geeks in software, because I feel like story point estimation would be a lot easier if you could describe it as “points of SAN you will lose in doing this”

My job is to sit down and enter "Now?" into a computer terminal, which randomly responds "No" or "Yes". I repeat this task for nine hours a day, and twice a month they pay me for the number of Yeses I got. I am quite skilled at this and often speak at professional seminars. Lately I've been very sad

the museum sounds great i hope they also build one for women

I talk about Hannah-Jones’ 2016 article about one a month. Read this.

The first real playtest for Compile: Digital has started! It's awesome to see people playing matches in real time; I forget the magic of the internet and software sometimes but this is a beautiful reminder.

Someone pointed out that nothing ever leaves the middle frame and I can’t unsee it. 

All right, here's the first call out. Within hours of me publishing an incredibly in-depth piece on CMON's finances, which covers a multitude of stock exchange filings from across several weeks, this article appeared on @tabletopgamingnews.bsky.social: www.tabletopgamingnews.com/cmon-is-suff...

Finally, I got to spend some good time with my friends and get a perspective on the Tabletop industry. I am glad that the indie, "ars gratia artis" ethos is still so strong. My love of tabletop is rooted in expression, community, and creativity, and I am glad that so many others share that (5/5)

This was the first major testing of Complicit (name subject to change), a 2 vs 2 worker placement + card game I'm developing with @nerdparker.com . We came away with a laundry list of changes (fully expected), but I'm heartened because the testers really seemed to love the game. (4/5)

#PaxWest 2026 is in the books. It went amazing, and I want to thank @tedmannschaller.bsky.social and @connor.alwaysawake.games for organizing the PNW Tabletop Game Market, @nerdparker.com for helping me at the event, and all the other folks who helped to make things happen. Deets below- (1/5)

One Unplugged just isn’t enough. We’re launching a second PAX Unplugged in Houston: June 25-27, 2027! See y’all in Texas next summer 🤠🧡

Today is the day! Come swing by the PNW Tabletop Game Market at #PAXWest tonight at Summit 0. You'll find 20 uniquely indie tabletop games that you can only get directly from these designers! A lot of loving care and craft goes into these games. So come check it out after the expo hall closes! ♥️🎲

Is this a common expression in some parts of the US? I’m very concerned how dark this got.

Last is a newer project with @nerdparker.com - Complicit, a card / worker placement game for 2 teams of 2 in 45 minutes. You and your partner are trying to complete a heist in a cyberpunk future before the other team does. It's early days, but a lot of fun! Testing Saturday 5th 10:30am-2pm

Hey #PaxWest ✂️🎲 folks! I've got some games to show! If you'll be attending and/or any of these strike your fancy, reach out! I'll have details in the sub-posts below. I will shill these again before events, so don't worry if you miss this post 😄

Check out our dates and locations for our Sector Qualifiers through January 2027! What event do you think you will attend? Tickets and prizing to come later!

Hench offers a cartoon approach to minionhood, a brief meditation on what it means to collaborate under a dark lord. It's a little under-baked, but thanks to a short duration and colorful artwork it's still worth a half-hour of backstabbing and snide remarks. My review: spacebiff.com/2026/08/25/h...

48hrs left to back us at bookmedaddy.com 🎲 Featuring @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social and Beth May with Folgers Vocals by Maxton Waller ☕

One of our goals coming out of Year 2 was that we wanted to put more of our power into defensive units so that control decks continued to want units in addition to removal. There was a big debate as to whether this unit was better as a 3/3 or as a 4/3. It's certainly made an impact! #FFGStaff

One of the most iconic moments in the Battle of Endor is, of course, when Green Leader crashes into the Executor to bring it down. It's so memorable that I made a point to put it on two cards. Somehow Ryan and the developers got both into the perfect sweet spot of "fun, strong, not OP" #FFGStaff

I just picked up the most insane deckbox for my Star Wars Unlimited decks. It even has slots for the leaders!!! 😍✨️ @gamegenic.com

I took my son to see the Od*ssey, and I forgot about R-rated _trailers_, so I was hyper aware of every detail in the two we saw. I watched the Sex Purge trailer intensely and I had no idea it was about a sex purge. What.

We are just a few weeks until the release of Homeworlds! With a new set approaching, we are gearing up for the launch of the new preview season! To kick us off we have got some teasers from Tyler Parrott! Read on to see what he has to tease: buff.ly/ZV1M3bL

Ezra was the last leader we added to the set, and we debated a fair bit on which version to depict. Obviously for the era, a Peridea version of the character made more sense, but that version really isn't aggression aspect and it felt weird not having the first Ezra leader be from Rebels #FFGStaff

I asked some really hard hitting questions to John and Jack at #StarWarsUnlimited Galactic Championship! Top class journalism if I do say so myself. @unlimitedffg.bsky.social youtu.be/9dgfohcSj6Y

Alright, first draft of the first Scenario for the Disco Arkham Horror set set is done (along with base decks for the 4 flavors of Harry). Now to see if I can playtest it a couple of times to make sure it's not too busted before I throw more energy at it.

The #galacticchampionship was an absolute blast. Congratulations to the #FFGStaff team for a smooth and successful event. Also congrats of course to James for taking the whole thing down! Looking forward to next year!

What new game mechanic are you most excited for that is coming with the release of Homeworlds in October?

Join Ryan Serrano as they give some insights into the design of Ashes of the Empire! This set is unique as it contains a new token unit, a new token upgrade and a new keyword! Check out how that factored into the design along with many other details! Read more here: buff.ly/nBtrGxU

During the Galatic Championship we also hosted the Galatic Open as one of our first events to award Qualifying Points for Season 2! Check out the winning decklist piloted by Simon Harvey!

Apparently there was a bug in the system, because a Behind Unlimited article from last month also just published yesterday! I wanted to write about the original design process for the Twin Suns format, in celebration of the first Twin Suns precon decks #FFGStaff starwarsunlimited.com/articles/beh...

Speaking of the odyssey this is the best post anyone's ever made about it

The #SWU Galactic Championship is in the books and I'm already counting the days to the next one. I want to offer a big "thank you" to all that players that made the event special. I also want to praise the amazing crew that brought the broadcast to life. True professionals.

Last year’s was really fascinating and mostly heartening, so I’m curious about this one.

For the threes of people this is of interest for, I've started spending some of my copious free time on a Disco Elysium set for Arkham Horror (Strange Eons is a good tool). The goal is 4 pre-built investigator decks, one for each flavor of Harry, and a 3-mission mini campaign. Teasers attached!

Check out our Top 8 decklists from the Main Event! Did any cards or leaders surprise you?

I honestly didn’t think they’d do it. #StarWarsUnlimited
