How good is our new module “Better Off Dead” available now at DTRPG? One player said: “arghhhh it’s eating my face!!!” Another: “So I have to roll a new character?” And yet another: “You’re a ***** is what you are!” Get it today! (Link in the comments to subvert “the man”)

From our table to yours! Better Off Undead💀 A classic dungeon crawl for 6 characters of 1st or 2nd level. My first module on DTRPG. Designed by this guy and thoroughly tested by the pesky players I’m so fortunate enough to game with. Support indie creators! www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...

48 pages of editing the new module “Better Off Undead” and I have found my favorite sentence. It deals with ‘clever tactics improving a character’s chances of survival.’ “Those entering the tomb overzealous and eager for death will find it there.” C’mon in! I’m sure it’ll be fine!

You know you’re “winning” at DnD when your players feel compelled to wash their hands after touching your dice. I said “what you doing man?” They said “I don’t want that evil on me! Ewwww…” Crush! 😈🎲

I now begin my electroshock therapy season. As an engineer deploying electronic devices, otherwise known as a “dry Midwest winter.” “It’s all too shocking!” I’m aware this perspective is not very well grounded.

My husband is an artist who makes orreries (clockwork planetary models) out of metal and glass. When I was struggling to finish my novel, he made me a deal: if I finished the book, he'd make me an orrery based on the world of my novel. It's freaking BEAUTIFUL.

Meet “Big Red.” My latest “miniature.” I had to sit on that egg for many hours before it would hatch! I’m not the greatest painter, but I certainly enjoy it.

Having the GM narrate the adventure hook is good. But handing a wax sealed summons to the players is magical and rad! I can’t wait to hand this over to the party for our first session of I6 Ravenloft. 🦇 🧛‍♂️ 🕯️

I got to play Index Card RPG for the first time tonight. Thanks to @dmtales.bsky.social ! What a great game. We played in the Warpshell world. Space-Fi It was RAD! I was a robot with a laser and a vibro blade and a prime directive to protect the builder! That’s good times right there! 🤖

Wes from DM Tales is doing some of the best #TTRPG reviews around, period. If I’m interested in a solid review that gets under the hood of a game, this is where I go first. Keep up the great work @dmtales.bsky.social !

An updated map of the continent of Baryngor, in our setting of Orynsphyr, which will be featured in our 3 part mini-series, “The Varisian Chronicles,” and actual/solo play of Swords & Wizardry Complete Revised. Want to find out how the former Kingdom of Varisia became known as “The Abandoned Lands?”

A post for my fellow northerners, those whose blood runs a bit colder & whose heads rattle when shaken for the rocks they must contain, for surely there is no other explanation as to why why we choose to endure the wrath of the ice gods in these soon to be frozen wastelands. See you at the tables.

A player & friend of mine just sent me this. Bash, if you’re out there, “you have chosen wisely!” There is much satisfaction in seeing experienced and thoughtful gamers leave an intro Old-School Essentials session at my table to return next time with books in hand & adventure on their minds! #OSR

I’ll be uploading a Combat tutorial for Swords & Wizardry Complete Revised this Friday at 10:00 AM CST. Perhaps not the greatest and best combat tutorial in the world, but certainly a tribute. (JK, this one rocks. It might just be the greatest S&W combat tutorial ever created. Also, the only one.)

Is anyone on this platform talking ‘bout Old-School games and such? AD&D, B/X, BECMI, Old-School Essentials, Swords & Wizardry, game theory/mastery, sandboxes, emergent narrative? Say hello! Let’s agree on stuff and say “cool!” or agree to disagree and maybe learn something we didn’t know.

One Shot Idea: This is Spinal Tap but they travel through time with the aid of Viv’s “computer magic” to STONEHENGE where they unravel the mystery of who the Druids were, and what they were doing. Who’s in and what character/class are you rolling? (I’m Rob Reiner, your Games Master)
