Signals from Delta Pavonis: "First Impressions - Wulfwald RPG (Anglo-Saxon themed standalone OSR game)"
https://delta-pavonis.blogspot.com/2024/09/first-impressions-wulfwald-rpg-anglo.html
My first impressions of the #Wulfwald #ttrpg are now on my blog.
TL;DR: #Wulfwald is extremely impressive; evocative and different, it takes a light #OSR framework and makes something unique. The subsystems like magic would be simple to lift to another game. The map and artwork is lovely, and it reminds me how much we will miss Russ Nicholson. Highly recommended.

Mail call. 📬📦
At last! One copy of #Wulfwald by #LostPages @lostpaolo arrived. This one came from Spear Witch. I just got the message that the other copy is under way. Let’s see if it actually arrives.
Also, #CelticShadows Hardback compatible with #ShadowDark from the KS arrived today. Very cool. It’s got rules for a Berserker and Druid Classes and some locations/one-shots and a ton of campaign and background information.
Both are perfect inspirational material for my homebrew setting.
Reading the #Wulfwald #ttrpg at the moment; it really is rather delightfully written. Anglo-Saxon special deniable operations with some really evocative builds on an #OSR core. It may pair well with the other longer term gaming read I have, King for a Day II (which is a massively developed Anglo-Saxon-esque mystery sandbox that @TheTweedmeister introduced me to).
Now that's a proper game right there. Plenty to read without having to heft a single wrist-breaking 500 page hardback; a sturdy box to keep things together; and a large cloth map drawn by the great and greatly missed Russ Nicholson. Very appealing.
"Magic-users are unwelcome in any village or meadhall. Feared by the superstitious peasants, mistrusted by warriors. Only the power of the lord they serve will protect them, but for sorcerers even that may not be enough."
Magic as something genuinely uncanny and dangerous is too rare in fantasy games, most of which follow D&D's lead of wizards being power fantasies and spells being items on a shopping list. Again, Wulfwald builds tension and conflict into the setting itself. I'm very much liking what I've read so far.
Reading a few pages of Wulfwald, which has a very appealing experience system for anyone who enjoys the old sagas. You only gain XP for gifts given by your lord as rewards for service, reflecting your growing status and importance. Likewise, treasure is its own reward and so does not generate XP, but the underlying nature of society encourages you to do more with it than simply buy fancier stuff: PCs have good reason to reward others and make gifts of their own. Building loyalties and obligations into a game makes it all so much more interesting.
Or indeed anyone getting ready for Wulfwald might have an interest.
