I'm considering Ed 2-4. Not sure which but am leaning to the MSH style one, for one thing I like the ease of use. Albeit I can also get that from 4E (with a few minor mods to fix skills that each class gets moving from percentile to d20) Right now though, I've not go a hard plan for which ed.

I should run either Gamma World, or MSH. #ttrpg #gaming #live

I know how that is, my vision isn't great anymore so it makes TTRPG's hard to read. I'm thankful for PDF's and things I can alter the size of the page.

More of me trying to draw, an elastic superhero. I wanted something "different" for the costume (Mr. Fantastic, Plastic Man, and Elongated Man seem to mostly shop at the same costume store almost, with Plastic Man's being the strangest.)

Friend: "This game you are making and running, can I have a profession called Witch Hunter." Me: "But there aren't any witches, just demons?" Player: "Well I want someone who hunts demons!" Me: "Okay, we need a better name, here are a dozen." Player: "Cool!" #ttrpg-design #ttrpg

I don't, honestly. Marvel needs fewer 'Superman'-expies. It has too many, I'd ditch all of em but Gladiator (not on Earth), and Blue Marvel (who is more than a plain expy)

Alright! Thank you, this is the kind of thing I'm looking for!

I realize that I do a lot more writing and adding to my game drafts when I'm actually running them for game groups. It is part of why I'm so slow at that process. #ttrpg #ttrpg-design

Thanks for looking out for a pup. Dogs are worth more than anything.

Cards as a mechanic can be great (Marvel Superhero Adventure Game); cards used as a Mechanic can be terrible (many others) I'm just not sure if I should stick to dice or try and find something elegant with cards. Dice are a lot easier to make elegant though. #ttrpg #ttrpg-design #game-design

MSH has that, haven't looked at Invincible yet (it has all that gore and smashing of terrain.)

I really wish I could find another long-term superhero game to play (MSH, Icons, etc) #ttrpg #play

Silverlion (Tim Kirk) @silverlion.bsky.social · 01/09/2026
Aaah! Okay. My game will probably not be for you, because while I'll have social pressure, the wargame aesthetics are not for me.

Silverlion (Tim Kirk) @silverlion.bsky.social · 01/09/2026
Oh very much the same, it is why my "team" hero group are all dead in the game, so players can choose to replace their team if they want. Pastiches are alright if they're GOOD pastiches but most of them are terrible (M&M1E had some good ones in core.) The settingbook failed at this though.

What game is that?

Silverlion (Tim Kirk) @silverlion.bsky.social · 30/08/2026
I was brainstorming traits for one of my games and realized I probably should change the names of some of the "ability scores." Also may make all equipment unless it is separate trait be part of a general "Load Out" trait. #ttrog #ttrpg-design #gaming #rpg So gear can be swapped in and out.

I hope so, surprised me actually, as I'd heard they were done but not that they had shipped.

Got my Ars Magica Definitive Edition. It came in yesterday; I love the encyclopedia-style design of the book. #ttrpg #Atlas-games #ArsMagica
