Reposted by Ted Bushman | Westward Bound Is in Early Access!Gila RPGs @gilarpgs.bsky.social · 23/09/2026NOVA is an important game for me. It wasn't always the game it is. When that burned down, it drove me to create the LUMEN system, and NOVA was the first game to come from that. LUMEN sort of "put me on the map" and NOVA was a really big part of it. So thank you for all your support today 💜 0322

Reposted by Ted Bushman | Westward Bound Is in Early Access!Chase @chkurk.bsky.social · 25/03/2026One of the things I loved about the Heroism system in Last Caravan was the way it drove the player to take actions that were good for the type of game it was looking to make AND had unique prompts for different playbooks. This meant that players were always driven towards dramatic, archetypal play. 131

Also, if you're not aware, The Last Caravan is a #TTRPG about a road trip through a frozen apocalypse to get to safety in the aftermath of an alien invasion. It's FitD-like, but lighter rules-wise than BitD, and just a cool game. 071
