Humble Bundle - Mutants & Masterminds 3e RPG Collection

 

I am not a massive fan of Supers RPGs—I never have been and never will be. That being said, if I were to play a Supers RPG these days, it would be Mutants & Masterminds—hands down. It's just familiar enough to feel comfortable.

18 bucks gets you 19 Mutants & Masterminds releases. Years of heroic play can be at your fingertips.

Bundle of Holding - The Dracula Dossier

I've heard a lot about Nights Black Agents. Surprisingly, I bought this back in 2017 - I need to redownload The Dracula Dossier.

Agent! We've been cleared to resurrect the December 2017 Dracula Dossier Bundle. The Dracula Dossier is an epic improvised horror-espionage campaign for Night's Black Agents, star designer Kenneth Hite's GUMSHOE system tabletop roleplaying game of burned spies vs. vampires from Pelgrane Press.

In 1893 a visionary spymaster in the British Naval Intelligence Department tried to recruit the perfect asset: a vampire. Operation Edom contacted Count Dracula in Transylvania, set up a safe house and headquarters in England, and arranged transit. Then it all went wrong. Dracula betrayed his minder and double-crossed NID. British intelligence hunted him down on his home ground and terminated him with two knives and extreme prejudice – or so they thought. Dracula lives. Now it's up to you to finish the job.

Funded by a November 2014 Kickstarter campaign, the Dracula Dossier series follows in the fully improvisational path of the award-winning The Armitage Files campaign for Trail of Cthulhu. Players follow leads in the margins of Dracula Unredacted, a rare edition of Bram Stoker's masterpiece that reveals the terrifying truth behind the fiction. Players choose which leads to track, which scarlet trail to follow. The Director, using the clear step-by-step techniques in these ebooks, improvises a suitably blood-soaked thriller in response to their choices. Together you create your own unique story for one of the greatest RPG campaigns ever published.

This comprehensive revival once again brings you the entire Dracula Dossier line. For just US$19.95 you get all three titles in this revived offer's Agent Collection (retail value $54) as DRM-free .PDF ebooks, including the Night's Black Agents core rulebook, Dracula Unredacted, and The Edom Field Manual.

Kickstarter - It Fell From the Sky (ShadowDark Adventure)

What would your players' characters do if aliens crash-landed in your campaign? This adventure just may answer that question!

This is the part where I pull back the curtain. I've known Thom Wilson for years, first meeting Tom at NTRPG Con and later being a Special Guest at the first Shire Con (run by Thom) and yearly since. Thom is a skilled and prolific producer of Old School RPG material.

It Fell From the Sky is Thom Wilson's ShadowDark low-level adventure. It's 4 bucks in PDF, 15 bucks for print plus PDF, and includes shipping.

It Fell From the Sky is a 24- to 28-page adventure designed for the Shadowdark RPG. It contains enough content to last one to three sessions of gameplay for most groups. It can be dropped into any campaign or world of the game master's choosing.

This adventure will be available to backers in two formats: a PDF or a digest-sized print-on-demand book. The cover is full-color with a black & white interior.

The adventure was created and written by Thom Wilson of ThrowiGames. Eric Lofgren created the fantastic cover. Maps were hand-drawn by Glynn Seal of MonkeyBlood Design. And the original interior art was developed by Joey Docil. Of course, Joshua Newey is handling all the editing.

DriveThruRPG will handle PDF delivery, and Lulu.com will fulfill the print-on-demand copies.

Bundle of Holding - Corsairs of Cthulhu (CoC)

This is the part where I talk about who I know, so you can read this post with open eyes. I've known Ben Burns, owner of New Comet Games, for about a decade. We set aside time to talk at every NTRPG Con, and I consider Ben a friend.

I own nearly all New Comet Games Call of Cthulhu print releases, which are well worth the investment. At 7.95, this PDF bundle is practically a steal.

Ahoy! This all-new Corsairs of Cthulhu Bundle presents Corsairs of Cthulhu: Fighting the Mythos in the Golden Age of Piracy and other historical Call of Cthulhu Seventh Edition tabletop roleplaying scenarios from New Comet Games. This piratical guide to the years 1650-1730 gives you new rules for alchemy and voodoo, historical occupations and equipment, and maps of Port Royal and far Tortuga. Your 17th-Century Investigators can crew a pirate or privateer vessel, freelance out of a Caribbean port, or sail their own ship as corsairs. They face curses left by ancient civilizations, and nightmares hidden around the Gulf and the seas beyond (waaay beyond). Join the crew, hoist the Jolly Roger, prime your pistol, and sharpen your cutlass. It'll take more than luck to save you today.

For just US$7.95 you get all four CoC supplements in our New Comet Collection (retail value $44) as DRM-free ebooks, including the complete 299-page Corsairs of Cthulhu campaign sourcebook along with three 1920s-era campaigns: A Time for Sacrifice (about Mayan mysteries in the Yucatan), Devil's Swamp (the Hockomock Swamp in southern Massachusetts), and The Star on the Shore (Rockport, Massachusetts). Each campaign consists of shorter scenarios that can be played as standalone sessions, and all are fine for both beginning and experienced Investigators.

Note: These campaigns require Call of Cthulhu Seventh Edition (not included in this offer) or compatible rules such as the free and open Cthulhu Eternal.

Humble Bundle - Warhammer Fantasy Roleplaying

I first ran a Warhammer Fantasy Roleplaying with the release of the first edition of the WFRP ruleset, and it was a blast. The system is fun, but the setting is second to none. Rich and dark, the world of WFRP is familiar to us but also significantly divergent.

The current edition of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay is a bundle at Humble Bundle. For 25 bucks, you get all of the releases shown on this page and a 20% off coupon for use at the Cubicle 7 website.

Horror Sale - I6 Ravenloft (1e)

I remember first seeing Ravenloft in 84 (it was released in 83). It was an exciting change of pace from the other adventures I was running then, and the Ravenloft setting that was released later became one of my favorite settings in the 2e era.

Until the end of October, I6 Ravenloft (1e) is on sale for 4.19 in PDF on DTRPG.

Under raging stormclouds, a lone figure stands silhouetted against the ancient walls of castle Ravenloft. Count Strahd von Zarovich stares down a sheer cliff at the village below. A cold, bitter wind spins dead leaves around him, billowing his cape in the darkness. Lightning splits the clouds overhead, casting stark white light across him. Strahd turns to the sky, revealing the angular muscles of his face and hands. He has a look of power - and of madness. His once-handsome face is contorted by a tragedy darker than the night itself.

Rumbling thunder pounds the castle spires. The wind's howling increases as Strahd turns his gaze back to the village. Far below, yet not beyond his keen eyesight, a party of adventurers has just entered his domain. Strahd's face forms a twisted smile as his dark plan unfolds. He knew they were coming, and he knows why they came - all according to his plan. He, the master of Ravenloft, will attend to them.

Another lightning flash rips through the darkness, its thunder echoing through the castle's towers. But Strahd is gone. Only the howling of the wind - or perhaps a lone wolf - fills the midnight air. The master of Ravenloft is having guests for dinner. And you are invited.

Horror Sale - Vaesen - Nordic Horror Roleplaying

I own Vaesen, and I'm impressed with it. However, it may never be used, as it doesn't fit my current group all that well. It uses the Year Zero Engine, which may or may not be a selling point for you.

Usually 24.99 in PDF, for the rest of the month, Vaesen is on sale for 14.99.

For our Halloween sale, this title has been marked down by up to 40% for a limited time!

Welcome to the Mythic North – northern Europe of the nineteenth century, but not as we know it today. A land where the myths are real. A cold reach covered by vast forests, its few cities lonely beacons of industry and enlightenment – a new civilization dawning. But in the countryside, the old ways still hold sway. There, people know what lurks in the dark. They know to fear it.

Vaesen – Nordic Horror Roleplaying is written by Nils Hintze and based on the work of Swedish illustrator and author Johan Egerkrans. Vaesen presents a dark Gothic setting steeped in Nordic folklore and the old myths of Scandinavia. The game mechanics utilize an adapted version of the awardwinning Year Zero Engine.

Key features:

· Ten ready to use archetypes let you create a character in minutes – or use the included life path tables and let the dice decide.

· Quick and flavorful rules for combat, investigations and horror.

· Rules for developing the player characters’ headquarters during campaign play.

· A detailed gazetteer of the Mythic North setting and the town of Upsala.

· A score of bloodcurdling vaesen to encounter, all beautifully illustrated by Johan Egerkrans.

· An introductory Mystery called The Dance of Dreams.

Deal of the Day - Castle Falkenstein

Castle Falkenstein is a modern-day classic. I remember grabbing a copy of this back in 2006/7 in print, and wishing I had a gaming group to run it. I may need to revisit Castle Falkenstein.

Normally 20 bucks in PDF, Castle Falkenstein is on sale until tomorrow morning for $6.

SPELLNAPPED!

When computer game designer Tom Olam found himself sorcerously shanghaied by a rogue Wizard and a Faerie Lord, little did he suspect that he would soon become the pivotal force in the struggle to control an alternate Victorian Universe. But before the deadly game could end, he would first have to battle gigantic Landfortresses, outwit Dragons, romance a beautiful Adventuress, and defeat the Evil legions of a Dark Court determined to destroy him at all costs.

Then maybe, just maybe, he could find a way home again ...

It’s a novel. It’s a game. It’s both. It’s Castle Falkenstein™, an amazing journey into another universe just a few steps away from our own: a place where Dragons and Steampower rule the skies, Faerie Lords duel atop the battlements, and where the forces of Wizardry and Magick meet the gaslight streets of the Victorian Age. But with Castle Falkenstein™, the story never ends, as you too take up saber and spell to adventure in a distant world on the other side of the mysterious Faerie Veil: a world of Swashbuckling Fantasy, High Romance, and Magickal Technology. The world of—Castle Falkenstein™

New Release - Greyhawk Campaign Guide (by Joesph Bloch)

The Greyhawk Campaign Guide hit "Copper" on DTRPG in six hours. When it hits Gold, it can be offered as a POD. The Greyhawk Campaign Guide is 14.95 in PDF.

This book gives the dungeon master a wealth of information to run a campaign in this venerable fantasy setting, with information on history, the calendar, weather, the inhabitants of the land, descriptions of the lands and wildernesses that make up the Flanaess, and more.

The accompanying Greyhawk Player's Guide will be published soon.

Bundle of Holding - Teeth RPG

It's October, and that means a month of deals on Horror RPGs. Here is one I had yet to hear of before - The TEETH RPG. I may just have to pick this one up ;)

Adventurer, open wide and say aaaaaaughhhh! with this all-new TEETH RPG Bundle featuring TEETH, the fantasy-horror tabletop roleplaying game of occult crime and monster-hunting in a cursed corner of 18th-Century England. A grotesque tragicomic meld of Blackadder and The Witcher, TEETH adapts the Forged in the Dark rules for monster-hunting in the benighted Vale of the Deleuth, which glories in revolting mutations, occasional insurrection, murderous Hogmen, and also-murderous pies. You're supposedly a Hunter, charged with driving back monstrous incursions and protecting the trade in occult artifacts. But that is subterfuge! Your Outfit of bruisers, scholars, trackers, and sappers (explosives experts) share a Secret Agenda, and a one-year time limit before occult contamination corrupts you. If you execute your mission and escape the Vale before Winter ends, you can claim victory – however horrible the cost.

We know you're already champing at the bit to pay just US$7.95 for the complete, DRM-free 320-page TEETH: A Roleplaying Game core rulebook (retail price $27.50), along with the pay-what-you-want scenario Night of the Hogmen and the False Kingdom campaign.

And you'll get a second bite at the apple with our More Teeth Collection, including the aptly named expansion More Teeth and the standalone introductory scenarios Stranger & Stranger and Blood Cotillion. That's an additional $26 retail value, yours if you pay more than the threshold price of $15.43.

Bundle of Holding - Unknown Armies 3E

I've followed Unknown Armies over the past few years without ever taking "the dip." I've been intrigued by the system and default setting, but I have never committed to buying into the system before now.

The Starter Collection for Unknown Armies, at 7.95, fits my needs perfectly. At just under 21 bucks as I type this, the Complete Bundle intrigues me, but it may be beyond my current level of interest.

Adept! This all-new Unknown Armies 3E Bundle presents Unknown Armies, the 2016 Third Edition of the acclaimed Atlas Games tabletop roleplaying game about broken people risking everything to change the world. Reality as we know it is shaped by a group of 333 people so dedicated to certain attributes that they become the archetypes of the Invisible Clergy, who are locked in an eternal struggle for power. Your characters are pawns in this power struggle – and you're hoping to join the ranks of the Clergy itself. You might struggle against the New Inquisition, the Sect of the Naked Goddess, or your own deteriorating sanity. You might face vampires, godwalkers, or fellow practitioners of magick. Against unrelenting opposition, will you win through?

Created by Greg Stolze and John Tynes, Unknown Armies is a game of postmodern occult intrigue, transcendental horror, and furious action. It's about driven characters who gain the power to alter reality until it aligns with their fevered desires – about obsession and identity – about revealing the horrible truth we don't want to see, and claiming that truth for yourself. It's about being relentlessly, hopelessly human.

For just US$7.95 you get all five titles in our Starter Collection (retail value $35) as DRM-free .PDF ebooks or MP3 music tracks, including the first rulebook (Book 1: Play) with all the rules for players, plus the introductory scenario Maria in Three Parts and three sets of ambient music tracks composed by James Semple: Upsetting Anomalies, Unnatural Artistry, and Uncanny Acuity.

And if you pay more than the threshold price of $20.82, you'll level up and also get our entire Complete Collection with twelve more titles worth an additional $64, including four more rulebooks – Book 2: Run, Book 3: Reveal, Book 4: Expose, and Book 5: Mine – along with the full-length scenario Bring Me the Head of the Comte de Saint-Germain and seven "Campaign Starter Kits": Derby Girls Destroy DC, Heroin Highway, Karmic Ties and Fifth Wheels, Raiders of the Lost Mart, Sacred Pharma, Violence Inherent in the System, and Young Practicals.

Halloween Sale - Horror on the Orient Express (CoC)

A Halloween Sale is going on at DTRPG. One of my favorite picks is the Horror on the Orient Express for Call of Cthulhu. I own this in print, as I backed the Kickstarter, and Oh My God, I want to run this as a GM! Sadly, I don't have a gaming group that would do an extended Call of Cthulhu campaign, let alone a single session or two. Horror on the Orient Express is literally "that good."

Horror on the Orient Express is normally 39.99 in PDF (already a bargain), but for the rest of October, Horrow on the Orient Express is on sale for 23.99 - 40% off!

A puzzling headline begins a front-page article found in the Times of London. Three men, all identical in identification, were found dead in the same room of the Chelsea Arms Hotel. All were dispatched in a similar manner stabbed through the heart.

Then the home of a valued friend burns to the ground, severely injuring him in the process. An odd summons, a surreptitious meeting, and a thousand-mile journey begins on the legendary rail service carrying the investigators to Constantinople, the Gateway of the Orient.

HORROR ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS contains a massive and legendary campaign, of up to nineteen adventures and more than 1100 pages, for the Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game. Beginning in 1920s London, the investigators journey to Paris and thence to the ancient city of Constantinople. With luck, they also return home.

Optional episodes are set in ancient times or special places (Roman-era, Dark Ages, Gaslight-era, the Dreamlands), so that the players can experience the founding, creation, and discovery of crucial elements of this campaign. Also included is a modern-day coda to the storyline, an alternate ending for those wishing a shorter campaign, and a built-in survival guide to aid beleaguered investigators.

There are seven books and more: the Campaign Book, Through the Alps, Italy & Beyond, Constantinople & Consequences, Strangers on the Train, and The Traveler's Companion. In addition, there is a book of handouts for the investigators, a European Route Map, three era-inspired luggage stickers, two era-inspired postcards, a matchbox, the Scroll of the Head, four U.S. passports, a bumper sticker, six pages of train plans that can be laid end-to-end, the Mims Sahis ceremonial knife, and fragments of the Sedefkar Simulacrum collected along the journey.

What the Critics Say

"Truly fantastic"—Diehard Gamefan

"The biggest and most grandiose campaign ever composed for any game… a must-own campaign. It is not just the grandeur, the scope, the high-quality writing or the fact that it epitomizes many of the values of Call of Cthulhu and the horror genre overall. It is the sheer immersion, the entertainment value it provides when played to the level it deserves…"—Antonios S. review, RPGNet.

"The most ambitious Call of Cthulhu adventure ever created… a high water mark for CoC."—Blackgate.

Kickstarter - The Broken Empires RPG™: Sim-Lite d100 Skills-Based TTRPG

Dramatic fantasy setting and Success Level System built for speed, detail, and immersion! Live (or die) with your choices.

The Broken Empires RPG Kickstarter will likely surpass half a million dollars in funding (it is currently around $370k with 12 days to go). It's an intriguing Kickstarter, but I will likely back only at the digital level (39 bucks, which is a bargain) instead of physical books. I figure if I go beyond simply reading the rules to actually running the game, I can snag a physical copy later.

It ships with solo rules, mass combat rules, and an intriguing d100 system that avoids levels and classes. Yeah, it sounds a bit like Chaosium's Basic Fantasy system.

The Roleplaying Game Where Decisions Are Forged in the Crucible of Conflict!

Designed by Trevor Devall, professional GM and creator of the popular YouTube TTRPG channel “Me, Myself & Die!”, The Broken Empires RPG™ frees you to pursue any character goal you can imagine using an innovative, Sim-Lite, d100 core system inspired by over 125 classic and modern roleplaying games. 

A Vast Open World Brimming With Possibility

Developed over 4 seasons on “Me, Myself and Die!”, The Broken Empires is an expansive mid-fantasy world, alive with adventure. From the high mountains and dark forests of the Westlands, to the disappearing banished lands north of the Iron Veil, to the emerging imperial sea-faring empire of Tical Dondala — the setting of The Broken Empires is now yours to explore and expand.

The character sheet of an RPG tells you much about the flavor and depth of the game, and characters in The Broken Empires RPG™ are as rich in detail and nuance as they come! Everything on the character sheet has been thoughtfully designed and arranged to deeply connect you to your character and to facilitate in-game decision-making. 

• No stats, classes, or levels. Everything is skills-based.
• Develop your character with Personality Traits, Expertise, Talents and Life Events.
• Easily track Resolve and Fatigue.
• Assess Wounds by checking specific Hit Locations.
• Detailed blocks for Armor, Weapons, Combat Maneuvers and Shield stats.
• At-a-glance tracking of all Skills: Combat, Adventuring, Social, Lore and Magic.
• Improve your character by pursuing meaningful goals.

Bundle of Holding - Fate of Cthulhu

I'm not a massive fan of the Fate System (I had high hopes when I backed the Kickstarter for the core rules many years ago). Still, there are some significant fans of the Fate System, and the Fate of Cthulhu Bundle is probably a perfect fit for them during the month of October.

Hero! This Fate of Cthulhu Bundle presents Fate of Cthulhu, the tabletop action-horror roleplaying game from Evil Hat Productions. In this standalone "Cthulhu Mythos meets The Terminator" RPG based on the flexible and fast-playing Fate Core system, you're a soldier from the future who travels to our time to stop the arrival of the Great Old Ones. Horrible things will still happen, and you may give in to corruption (to gain powerful "corruption stunts"), but you'll use your foreknowledge to punch the apocalypse in the face – or die trying.

For just US$14.95 you get all ten titles in our Fateful Collection (retail value $62) as DRM-free ebooks, including the complete standalone 256-page Fate of Cthulhu corebook (previously in our July 2021 Fate Worlds and Toolkits offer) and nine terrifying Timelines: The Ascellan Conspiracy, Rise of Azathoth, Rise of the Basilisk, Rise of Hastur, Rise of the Quiet, Rise of Tsathoggua, Rise of Yig, Rise of Yog-Sothoth, and Zombie Apocalypse.

Bundle of Holding - Weird Frontiers

Weird Frontiers is, by far, my favorite iteration of the DCC RPG rules. I've played Weird Frontiers at gaming conventions, and it is a blast!

For as low as 5.95, you can grab the Weird Frontiers core book, the Trail Map, and the Judge's Screen in digital format.

Trailhand! We've resurrected our October 2022 Weird Frontiers Bundle featuring Weird Frontiers from Stiff Whiskers Press, a standalone Lovecraftian horror-Western tabletop roleplaying game based on the Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG from Goodman Games. In an alternate 1865, cultists of Nyarlathotep brought on the Seven Days of Night to awaken long-dormant Elder Gods. Now, heroes with extraordinary abilities stand against an ever-growing evil in a wounded country still recovering from the bloodiest war in American history. You can turn tail or take the fight to the night, and you ain't about to be called yeller! Saddle your horses and clean those irons, 'cause there's something slithering across the dark frontier, and it's dead set on making vittles out of you and your ragtag posse.

For just US$5.95 you get all three titles in this revived offer's Starter Collection (retail value $23) as DRM-free ebooks, including the massive 908-page Weird Frontiers RPG corebook, the Trail Map, and the Weird Frontiers Judge's Screen.

And if you pay more than the threshold price of $17.99, you'll level up and also get this revival's entire Bonus Collection with five full-length Weird Frontiers modules worth an additional $50, including Dig Three Graves, The Malevolent Seven, Nest of Snakes, Never Swallow the Worm!, and Not So Fast, Billy Ray!
