@brucecordell.bsky.social been re reading Rust and Redemption and your introduction with your talk of Gamma World took me back to the 80s and Gamma World and the infamous “Aftermath” ttrpg. I happened to run across it on my shelf the other day

How can unquiet ghosts and fusion radiation possibly exist in the same world—and what happens when they collide? Jewel in the Sky doesn't combine science fiction and fantasy; science and magic; it asks what happens when the two forces must reckon with each other's existence. mymcg.info/jewel

Megadungeon Month is a celebration of dungeons at their most dangerous, deadly, and dazzling. Whether you crave old-school grit, dark fantasy intrigue, or mythic storytelling, Megadungeon Month is a portal to the ultimate dungeon adventure. LAUNCHING SOON—DON'T MISS IT! mymcg.info/jewel
In a dark cavern, seemingly bottomless, the sarcophagus—or corpse—of a giant, long-dead king stands at attention, his arms crossed across his chest. Floating around his face, a wizard clad in white is surrounded by balls of pure golden light. Is he attempting to wake this giant up?

Got the #ttrpgs Space Opera and Aftermath in this week. Both are from the 70s-80s. Started reading the rules. How the fuck did we play these games?

So Erika Kirk is on the “make heaven crowded” tour. To make that happen don’t you have to get a whole bunch of people to repent and then have them die(aka kill them). Didn’t we do this once already? It was called the Inquisition.

Mohnkern @mohnkern.bsky.social · 21/01/2026
I ran Best Leave Them Ghosts Alone. Players almost made the deal with the dark at the end.

Mohnkern @mohnkern.bsky.social · 21/01/2026
The core book, and two supplements are definitely some of my favorite content. Such depth and so many hooks for good storytelling. Just grab the core turn to a town and read and the story builds itself. I’m excited to see if I can convince a player to play a ghost from Dig Your Own Grave.

Lol, somehow I missed that there were two expansions for Old Gods of Appalachia, Dig Your Own Grave and All your Gods are dead. (I thought I had two copies of the same book. @shannagermain.bsky.social Went back and read both of them and they are both fabulous.

@montecookgames.com I'm suprised when you go here www.montecookgames.com/store/produc... That you don't see the two expansions, All your Gods are dead www.montecookgames.com/store/produc... and Dig your own Grave. www.montecookgames.com/store/produc...

I’m running a Numenera campaign and the players love it
030
Mohnkern @mohnkern.bsky.social · 20/01/2026
Thanks for the confirmation. I’ve actually written about get people to play RPGs other than 5-E and you are absolutely right, a good genre or story trumps mechanics every time.
010
Mohnkern @mohnkern.bsky.social · 20/01/2026
I still disagree. I’ve had people clamoring to play many non 5-e games when I’ve suggested them. For my crowd it’s a genre, not a system that governs interest. But you go ahead and believe that everything else is defunct. Enjoy your 5-e world.

Mohnkern @mohnkern.bsky.social · 20/01/2026
I wax responding to non 5-e games being defunct. I disagree. I’m running 4 non 5-e campaigns and have a waiting list for more players.

While I hope a reboot would be good I have serious fear it will lose its edge.
010
Mohnkern @mohnkern.bsky.social · 19/01/2026
Nope. Call of Cthulhu is still one of the biggest games in Japan. Don’t forget several Free League games including Dragonbane and Forbidden lands, and the One Ring. Plus all the Modiphius games.

Same systems different genres. Numenera and Cypher System

Numenera is an amazing background. I have all the books! Looking forward to more.

Numenera campaign The Secret City finished! Players had a blast exploring all the weirdness in that adventure. Going to take a break and place a one off Cypher System Sci Fi then back to a new Numenera campaign with the same characters! @montecookgames.com

Old gods session just finished. One player cut a deal with Jack, another with the grey ladies, a third with a wolf sister. Best players ever, getting themselves embroiled in the universe ;). The campaign is going to take interesting turns. @shannagermain.bsky.social @montecookgames.com #ogoa
