Just received a copy of Karl Druid's FRONTIER SCUM. It's a lot of fun! 'Acid Western Roleplaying': it's dark, it's gothic, it's folk horror, it's hilarious. I don't think I've encountered anything like it. #ttrpgs frontierscum.com @makedatanotlore.itch.io

FRONTIER SCUM

64 pages of rules-lite Acid Western roleplaying. PCs are wanted outlaw scum set loose on the Lost Frontier, a rough-and-tumble world of insatiable greed where people live one slug from the grave.

Woke up to a fun email today! I scanned through the new PDF side by side with the version I already had. I don't think there's a single page that hasn't been given a touch up or refresh, even if only adjusting the distress effects. Plus they added a T-Rex, so 5/5 stars from me.

Next up: it's no secret that I adore @gamesomnivorous.bsky.social and @makedatanotlore.bsky.social's Frontier Scum is pretty much a platonic ideal of an RPG for me. To that end, @alfredvalley.bsky.social's Fire in the Gorge is a cracking starter adventure for any players who survived The Organ Rail.

An old timey illustration of a hatless man holding a big target in front of him while a bullet passes through his skull. Text on the page describes a game mechanic that allows a player to let their hat take all damage from a single hit during a gun fight.

People often say Mork Borg is trying to kill you. No, that would be Frontier Scum. One of the most popular MB contemporaries for good reason, this in your face acid western by @makedatanotlore.bsky.social is brutal fun. Instant hitting on "Easy Shots" make guns incredibly powerful and exciting.

Opted to press my luck and actually make the scum look properly messy and more setting appropriate with regards to looking just absolutely miserable yet goofy.

Close-up of a very ugly weirdo with a rugged ravaged face, sunken eyes, a pointed nose, a large mustache, a very furry hood/hat, scarves, and a few boils. He's so cold, he's shivering. Probably.

Full body of the same scum as the previous image, wearing a lot of layers and heavy furs; yet like a fool he's left his greatcoat open - which is probably why he's so cold.
