Second night of playing solo #WondrousCreatures This time I beat Lazy Tingent pretty handedly. It might be time to step it up a notch. Macus definitely had a better player power than Samuel, who I used last night.

Whew! (And 2 photos wouldn't even fit on this post!) When I say the game room is taking a lot of work, this is what I mean. It's about half done. Nothing is organized or anything. This is just where it stands at the moment. When I say we have more games than your average local FLGS library, I'm not kidding. 😅

Kashu! is a #TTRPG about fighting gigantic kaijus and saving the city.
with light rules and a combate system that follows a simple but creative positioning rule that brings a unique touch to the game.

Wow, finalist for a CRIT Award! I'm usually just vibing in my tiny little indie #TTRPG micro-niche. So wild to me to reach so many and feel so seen.

The Broken Palace continues a great vampire arch, and is worth checking out. My players and I can't wait for the conclusion!

Pathfinder: The Broken Palace – A Vampiric Adventure Review

Disclaimer

Paizo sent me a free copy of the Shades of Blood: The Broken Palace adventure book to review for my blog. While I am very grateful for the opportunity, I won’t let it sway my opinions. This will be my honest review. You can pick up The Broken Palace directly from Paizo, or you can use my Amazon affiliate link if you want to help me out.

What is The Broken Palace?

The Broken Palace is book two of the Shades of Path adventure designed to take players from level 4 to 6.

The players venture deeper into the broken palace on their search for Lady Nalushae, but find themselves trapped in an ancient cellblock. Now, they must venture into its dark, dank, vampire infested prison for a way out. With their supplies dwindling and threats around every corner, players must learn to be resourceful. Can they make their supplies last long enough to save the world? Can they navigate the complex tensions between the three vampire factions that rule the Underheaven? What secrets will they uncover? What treasures will they find?

Impressions

The cover art is an immediately draws the eyes. I love the use of red. I love Naulusha’s design and how her pose strikes commands attention. I love the image of what I can assume are player characters struggling against a vampire. This series is supposed to be a darker, more horror oriented type of adventure, and the cover does a good job at setting the appropriate mood. The art throughout the book is equal as striking, and I enjoy flipping through it, just to look at the art. If you like vampires, undead, and horror, the book has some very good looking flavor and some fantastic flavor to go with it.

Now the overarching meta story is solid. I enjoyed reading the different bits of lore, and the warring factions are interesting. Most importantly, the book gives players many ways to solve the story. It doesn’t have to all be fighting, but it can be if that’s the kind of table you have. The dungeon design is fine. It has some neat encounters I will definitely borrow, and it builds a good amount of tension and urgency.

One thing to note about this adventure is that there is a survival mechanic that you will need to manage. Players will need to keep track of their food and water supplies to survive. The game does streamline the mechanic so it doesn’t feel like work without taking away any of the tension, but GMs are free to get as hardcore with their mechanics as they want. You can play without this mechanic, but I felt like it took away a lot of the urgency and tension. I like how there is this pressure to save the world from eternal darkness, the desire to explore this tomb of an advanced civilization, and the ever present threat of dying from starvation along with all the other threats that lurk in the shadows.

Overall, the adventure is fine. I enjoyed the flavor and lore, and there are some very cool encounters and monsters to play with. It was a fun path to explore, but I think my table is a bit too casual to take advantage of the survival mechanics. The survival mechanics are easy to manage, but we would often forget to keep track and that definitely took away from the tension. We still had fun, which I’d argue makes the adventure worth trying, but there are definitely some decisions my players wouldn’t have made if we were keeping better track. There is also the danger of being too hardcore about the survival mechanics. If the survival mechanics is that if it takes away from the story or fun, you’re doing too much.

Honestly, if you like vampires and don’t mind the survival mechanics, this is a solid horror campaign. It has a cool creepy setting filled with neat monsters and encounters and I am very interested to see what comes next.

I do want to take the moment to commend Paizo for the quality of their books. Everything I’ve gotten so far has been printed to a very high standard. Everything is clear, vibrant, and the books feel durable. I spilled all of my coffee on this book, and while I don’t recommend anyone try it themselves, I was surprised by how good it cleaned up. There is some warping and some staining, but the book looks good, and is still very usable.

If you want to pick up your own copy of The Broken Palace, check out the official Paizo website, or you can pick it up on Amazon through my affiliate link.

Finished up my first true solo #game of #WondrousCreatures. I really enjoyed how the automa plays and it didnt take a ton of overhead. I lost by 10 points against Lazy Tingent but I am looking forward to improving my scores and learning to be a little more efficient during my turns.

I played a 2h #solo #game of #WondrousCreatures to learn it. Lots of fun. I like that the #WorkerPlacement aspect is a different take on the regular mechanic. Next time I will play the proper solo version.

Clawdeen: Rückblick NordCon

Wir waren zum ersten Mal auf der NordCon, also gibts dazu natürlich ein paar Eindrücke. Im Vorfeld Tatsächlich wollte ich schon immer mal gern zur NordCon, weil ich so viel Gutes darüber gehört hatte und mich (vor Corona) auch immer das Angebot an Workshops und Lesungen so angesprochen hat. Ich bin so jemand, ich kann mich von morgens früh bis abends spät in irgendwelche Vorträge setzen (mache ich bei Kongressen, Messen etc. nicht anders) und habe meist diebischen Spaß dabei. Dass erst jetzt der erste Besuch anstand, lag vor allem an der Entfernung. Die war früher zwar von NRW aus nicht so hoch wie von

Der Beitrag Rückblick NordCon erschien zuerst auf Clawdeen spielt.

In the old editions there were wood elves beastmasters. Their regiment consisted of a master and some beasts. The idea is to proxy a Wild Hunt regiment by 3 stands with beastmasters.
Which 3 stands do you prefer to choose?
1. Hounds from celtic range.
2. Boars.
3. Small bears.
4. Big bear.
5. Panthers.
6. Wargs 1 from vampire range.
7. Wargs 2.
Choose 3 different numbers.
