@Raddu whew! That post was from 2018! :) I did indeed get the german version and played it, too! Worked well too, but in the end the gameplay proved to be too "mechanical" to my tastes, I also wanted to get away from the feats and new class features every level.

I'm Nick Thornborrow, and I've been in the game industry for fifteen years. Most of that time has been as a concept and storyboard artist at BioWare, where I worked on all of the Dragon Age titles, including the upcoming Dragon Age: Dread Wolf. I also illustrated "Stories of the Saints" by Carey Wallace. Lately I've rediscovered traditional media and have been exploring gouache painting. I'm excited to start building a new art community!

Our new #swordsandwizardry campaign began… in an exciting way: In literally the first two dice rolls (to climb a wall…) the two best climbers both failed and almost died, if not for our Paladin and Cleric. So, we'll use climbing hooks and ropes now.😇

We are playing the DNGN zine material, which is quite fun so far.

@ibbie I don’t remember in detail, it’s been a few years. But we stopped before we could even get close to the finale.

@dianaprobst thanks! I’ll take a look 👍

@dianaprobst I am! Great!

Borderlands & Beyond. Chaosium was selling this books from the old Moon Design Glorantha Classics line for a 40% discount, so after hearing so many good things about it on the Vintage RPG podcast, I got this paperback. Of course this is a classic and what we have here is a nice reprint, with clean text and good paper quality. I have some minor issues with some pixelated art and the blurry cover reproduction, which could have used a higher res scan. Still very playable. #ttrpg #runequest #pnpde

@BuyMyMojo this is really, really fun indeed - and a lot more powerful than I initially thought.

@Nogamara Agreed! I did some converting myself, mostly between different Versions of D&D, but i don't think I ever used those PC in a game.

@Nogamara I noticed that, too - also, when long-running campaigns switch "editions", they often come to an end. It may be that the change in rulesets also lead to a different feel that can be detrimental. It also hard to introduce new people into an existing group dynamic, but it helps to let them start at the beginning of a new "story arc."

@nono Sorry, I was off for a while. I think you were asking about a translation of the Runequest Starter Set - I am not sure whether it was french or german. I think Uhrwerk Verlag is doing a german version, it has not been officially announced though. I DO think the Starter Set is the best entry point for Newbies!

@nono I believe it it, yes. It is a good bargain in any case. But since the really good current edition has been translated into French, perhaps they’ll do the box, too?

I love this beautiful RuneQuest Starter Set. So much stuff for 30$ and they obviously put a lot of thought into this. #tabletop #ttrpg

Well, I finally got the (very) limited edition of #Runequest Glorantha and yes, I am quite happy with how this one turned out. This may be a collector’s edition, but I’ll be very happy to play this game, too: I may have very sentimental feelings for RQ and Glorantha in particular, but this is actually a very nice version of the classic game. #ttrpg #runequest #tabletop

I discovered that I really like RPG books in smaller formats like Whitehack or – as shown here – „Warlock!“ by Greg Saunders/Fire Ruby designs. Apart from being cute and short, these are very light rules for a more 80s-brit-fantasy gaming experience, with a career system very much like WHFRP. This is using a D20 :d20: though.
This very versatile ruleset and also quite charming, content-wise – I really like this and plan to use it soon-ish. #ttrpg #tabletop

I finally tried out Whitehack 3E as a player and I am happy to report that… it just worked really well. Even the stuff I thought could be a bit hard to explain to players – stuff worked, with the notable exception of the auction mechanic, which too some time to implement well. BUT: players just loved that in the end, too. This could well be my future go-to old school ruleset for non-DCC stuff. #ttprg #rpg #tabletop

I am very much looking forward to the release of WhiteHack 3e next month and I’ll probable use it for my non-DCC old school needs. Does anyone here have some experience with the older editions in a longer running campaigns? #tabletop #tabletop #rpg #ttrpg

Die neue Ausgabe des DCC-Zines "Der Trichter" ebenfalls vorbestellt worden und darin ist auch ein ziemlich umfangreiches Abenteuer aus meiner Feder - Testspieler wie @Tealk haben es sehr viel besser gemacht. Danke noch einmal an euch! Das "Zine" hat in dieser Ausgabe entspannte… 120 Seiten. #ttrpg #pnpde #tabletop https://www.system-matters.de/shop/dcc-trichter-2/
