Tällä viikolla Luolamestarit sukeltavat pelinjohtamisen kovaan ytimeen: Kohtaussuunnitteluun (Encounter Design). Onko "encounter" vain taistelu, vai voiko se olla jotain enemmän? ⚔️ #luolamestari #roolipelit #dnd5e #ttrpg #pelit

Tässä jaksossa pureudutaan syvälliseen ja pedagogiseen aiheeseen: Pelimekaniikan tarinallistamiseen. Miten monimutkainen ja raskas sääntöjärjestelmä opetetaan pelaajille ilman, että ensimmäinen pelikerta on pelkkää luennointia? #luolamestari #roolipelit #pelit #ttrpg #pelaaminen

Hmm... where was this list? I've been swamped with work and dealing with personal stuff, so my list and new dedicated website is unfortunately late this year, but coming asap. I know it's late this year, but I should get this back in order if only to celebrate 10 years of Miska's Maps 😄

Shadowrun is a unique phenomenon in the world of games. It's not the biggest game, but almost everyone’s heard of it — though what they’ve heard might not be complimentary. What's the story there? Why does it have the reputation it does?

Looks like #ImperiumMaledictum is the next game I'll be GMing while waiting for Starfinder 2E and Alien 2E Foundry VTT releases. The d100 system in IM looks pretty streamlined and fun to play. Any opinions or tips for starting a new campaign?

After the Minnesota shooting Senior DOJ officials started weighing proposals to limit transgender people's right to possess firearms. After the Kirk shooting, I look forward to the DOJ's proposal to limit white men's ability to possess firearms. Wait, what do you mean that's not how it works???🤔

Who wore it better? #StarTrek #StrangeNewWorlds
A meme with two side-by-side images of characters from the TV show Star Trek. The image on the left shows Captain Pike from Star Trek: Strange New Worlds wearing a green uniform with a black undershirt. The image on the right shows Captain Kirk from Star Trek: The Original Series wearing the same uniform without the undershirt. Text below the images reads, "I find it so funny that having Pike wear a black undershirt with the green wrap shirt implies that, it is the proper way to wear the uniform and that Kirk is wearing it like that for slut whore reasons." Below that, a comment from another user reads, "Kirk just gets it."

Yeah. Earlier saves did not save here. But, a friend of mine claimed that there should be a way past this bug. Unfortunately, I was already frustrated to the point that I had zero f**ks left. However, I do want to give it a new try at some point.

I really like the game. My only complaint is that it can get a bit repetitive towards the end and I could not complete the game as I ran out of those navigator points and could not reach my next objective. And yes, I googled and tried every trick to get more points, but still got stuck

#3: Astraterra. A Finnish sort-of steampunkish SF-fantasy RPG, with an emphasis on exploration and discovery. Aimed at younger players, but with plenty enough complexity and depth for adults, too. Made by @miskafredman.bsky.social and @ironspinepress.bsky.social !
Astraterra corebooks; Explorer's Guide on the left and Narrator's Handbook on the right. The covers form a single image, with a group of adventurers exploring a floating island, with strange plants, ancient robot bits, and a teleport gate in the back.

Made a character for #Daggerheart. It was a fun and smooth process and gave me a lot to think about with my own system(s) in development. But most importantly I'm getting to play in this campaign, instead of being the GM like usually 😄
A screenshot of a Daggerheart character sheet. The character is a female slyborne dwarf rogue. She has a messy dark curly hair snd her main attribute is Finesse +2.

Pro-tip: When writing narrative text for TTRPG locations, make sure there's hooks for GMs & Players. Avoid repeated "cozy places", as they aren't necessarily a great GM tool and certainly not a great player tool (as most players/GMs will find or make these places on their own).
