I'm very excited to announce that we've finally launched Buried Treasure, my #solarpunk #TTRPG campaign! Like all my solarpunk stuff, it's CC-BY, so you can get it absolutely free at: www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5... fully-automated-rpg.itch.io/fully-automa... or here: mega.nz/fm/DVsiDC7b

A photobash with an oil paint style, looking out over a landscape from the top of a steep hill with an extremely washed out road winding down it. The scene is framed by trees and brush. In the distance an irregular lake fills the bottom of a forested valley, with a small village along one side, and mountains rising up in the distance. A cargo airship is hovering somewhere above the scene. The text reads: Fully Automated the Thousand Year Cleanup Book One: Buried Treasure by Jacob Coffin
