How important is a skill system supported by rules for your Vintage Game enjoyment? Do you prefer fairly broad skills without ranks or numbers?, or something like Rolemaster with a huge list that covers almost everything?

First pass on small Wizard study using Forgotten Adventures assets and Dungeondraft. Coloured battlemaps aren't typically my thing, but they are popular.

With all the extras, that is a whole lot of assets and software for about what you would pay for just CC3+ alone

I think you have to import them, and it doesn't always work great. Also, they added some things to the interactive maps that don't transfer well at all, like links to other maps. It was made with Campaign Cartographer, but I think it was always meant to be stand-alone.

Buckle up, folks, after four decades we have circled back around to Satanic Panic.

A Texas conformity bill could impact tabletop roleplaying games in schools statewide
This decade’s Satanic Panic is encapsulated in the F.U.R.R.I.E.S Act, aimed at reinforcing "reality" while curbing students' rights to creativity and expression.

Here’s today’s work-in-progress from The Logger’s Trail. On to the color! One thing I’ll focus on is using hue & tone in the inks to build atmosphere. They’re black now but they’ll be adjusted to give more of a sense of depth & temperature to the pattern. #TheEpicAtlas #fantasy #art #illustration

How do you handle the clunky retrofuture in your Vintage Games? Keep it as is for the nostalgia, or upgrade based on a more modern aesthetic of futuretech?

William Gibson famously wrote Neuromancer on a manual typewriter because he was vastly unsavvy about tech; hence, Case had a whopping three megabytes of Sony memory to sell, and the only media dense enough to store secret government plans was for Johnny Mnemonic to erase part of his brain.

Deckplans, do you buy them or make them? Traveller has some solid guidlines on how much space you have to work with and now much each square meter will add to the tonnage, but how do you handle this in other games? Super detailed with every square centimetre accounted for, or just kinda wing it?

The mysterious individual who hired you at the tavern said it would be simple to get in, retrieve the gem she said was stolen, and return within a day or two. The area has been dead silent for the last hour of your approach, and now there isn't even a gentle breeze to make any noise.

Campaign Cartographer is great and I have been using Inkarnate quite a bit lately. What mapping software or other products do you use for your Vintage Games?
