Kickstarter - DC Heroes Role-Playing Game 40th Anniversary

I was never a big supers gamer. That could be because my teenage friends collected Marvel Comics, and I was a big DC fan. Heck, even in college, DC Comics ruled for me. So, I never got into Marvel Super Heroes like others in my group did. I owned the Mayfair DC Comics rules but I never could get my group to play it.

Well, Cryptozoic is bringing the original DC Heroes game back, both in the first and second editions, in all its glory. I'm so tempted, but I'll never play it. Backer levels start at 60 bucks and increase from there.

Hero (Core Box)

$60

A heroic beginning! Get into DC Heroes by choosing either the 1st Edition or 2nd Edition Core Box!

SHIPPING WEIGHT: Tier items weigh approx. 13 lb (freight weight).

NOTE: Shipping will be charged via the pledge manager after the campaign.

Deal of the Day - MCCLXV: Evesham (System Neutral 13th Century Setting)

I'm a massive fan of settings, as I enjoy stealing ideas from various sourcebooks and creating something different and unique. Some settings I simply want for the reading. I suspect MCCLXV: Evesham will fulfill both desires.

Today's Deal of the Day is MCCLXV: Evesham. Usually, 8 bucks in PDF, but until tomorrow morning, it is on sale for 2.78

Where do your loyalties lie? To the king, despite his shortcomings, or to the radical nobles seeking to subvert the crown? 

MCCLXV: Evesham is a detailed setting for historically-based role-playing in 13th-century England during the Second Barons’ War. The resource includes the mechanics for building and running a medieval manor, introduced in Medieval Manager, and an expansive background on medieval England, including the key historical figures of the time, such as Henry III, Eleanor of Provence, Edward Longshanks, and Simon de Montfort. It includes dozens of tables for facilitating play, character descriptions, plotlines and hooks, as well as diagrams for castles, manors, churches, maps of English towns and countryside, as well as maps of the decisive 1265 Battle of Evesham itself.

MCCLXV: Evesham is a 165-page resource for roleplaying in the desperate 1260’s of medieval England, adaptable for any game system.

Purchasing note: This book includes material previously published as Medieval Manager. If your interest is ONLY in a fantasy manor and you own Medieval Manager, you already own what you want. MCCLXV: Evesham updates the mechanics and events to make them more realistic for the historical setting of mid- to late- 13th-century England and provides a historically-based setting for playing a manor in 1260's England.

Kickstarter - Gary's Appendix: Issue 7

Truth in advertising. I've known Jeff Jones for several years, and he laid out the first two issues of Torchlight as well as the never-released Swords & Wizardry Continual Light Digest Edition. (Thank you, WotC, and your damn OGL drama!)

I've been enjoying Gary's Appendix series thus far, and Issue 7 looks to be another keeper. I love the cover artwork on the current issue, and Ropers have always been a weakness of mine ;)

Gary's Appendix: Issue 7 is available in PDF for 5 bucks or Print plus PDF for 19 bucks.

Gary's Appendix: A periodical zine filled with articles and an expanded bestiary for the OSR, using Old School Essentials mechanics where necessary. 

Gary's Appendix wraps up 2024 by following up our Dragons issue with the other half of the equation: Dungeons...or at least underground exploration. Issue #7 comes packed with eight articles on caves, mining, gemstones, fungus, and a whole lot more. So grab your torches and a gullible friend or two – it's time to go spelunking!

Cyber Monday DoorBusters at DTRPG

It's that time of year when bargains and truly deep discounts can be found for RPG PDFs at DTRPG. Our last batch was on Black Friday. Our final batch is here for Cyber Monday—prices are good through tomorrow. Also, there is a Deal of the Day at the bottom of the post.

Tomorrow City - it has a cool cover; this is the first I've heard of it. It sounds like steampunk supers, which is my least enjoyed genres. The price is right at 4.90

Cities Without Number - by Kevin Crawford, the OSR machine. For 4.99, its a hell of a bargain for OSR style Cyberpunk

The Gamemaster's Book of Villains, Minions, and their Tactics - at 3.39, I'll gladly add this to my book of DM tricks.

When the Wolf Comes - Viking roleplaying always strikes my interest. At 3.99, it's a tempting buy.

Rokugan - this appears to be an art book for Legend of the Five Rings. 5.99

Tales of the Valiant Player's Guide - brought to you by the debacle known as OGL 2.0, Tales of the Valiant is Kobold Press' rejiggering of 5e. Personally, I preferred it under the working title Black Flag. 6.99

Deal of the Day - Castles & Crusades Players Handbook - The latest printing of Castles & Crusades. What more can I say? 15 bucks

Humble Bundle - Monument Studio TTRPG Audio Compendium

I'll be honest with you. I last attempted to integrate audio effects into one of my gaming sessions in decades. That being said, Ol' Man Grognard, aka Glen Halstrom, makes ample use of such effects, and they certainly add atmosphere and flavor.

The Monument Studio TTRPG Audio Compendium Bundle at Humble Bundle nearly escaped my attention, but it's here now. Time is short, so if you want to grab any of this (for as little as a buck), don't hesitate.

Backerkit - Bringing Much More Isometric Map-Making Content to MapForge

BattleGrounds Games, the maker of MapForge, has been in the VTT business for over a decade and has been producing mapping software for about half that time. Heruca not only does good work, but he's also a solid supporter of the gaming community.

The current crowdfunding project is precisely what it says on the tin: Bringing Much More Isometric Map-Making Content to MapForge via Backerkit.

This campaign is to fund the creation of 13 new isometric content Add-Ons for MapForge, whose aim will be to allow the creation of Modern Day and Post-Apocalyptic maps. This new content will supplement all the great isometric content that is already available for MapForge.

If you're not already a MapForge user, no problem, since during this campaign you can pledge for a discounted MapForge license as an Add-On to your pledge. So even if you have zero interest in isometric mapping (or perhaps in the Modern Day and Post-Apocalyptic game genres), you can join the growing MapForge user base and go make some nifty top-down or hex-tile maps.

If you're not already familiar with MapForge, here's a quick recap:

• MapForge is easy-to-use software for Windows and Mac OS that makes high-quality maps for printing or for use in virtual tabletop software (e.g., Roll20, Fantasy Grounds, Foundry VTT, Arkenforge, etc.).
• It can be used for free (no license required for low resolution output).
• There are a staggering 60 free content Add-Ons available for MapForge, to start you off with over 9000 mapping assets covering a variety of game genres and mapping styles.
• You can download and try the software out for yourself, to evaluate it and see for yourself if the program is what you want/expect it to be.

Black Friday Doorbusters at DTRPG

I always enjoy the deep Discount Doorbusters at DTRPG on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, and today's Black Friday picks aren't bad, either. Actually, they are pretty good :)

Let's start with Gods of the Forbidden North for OSE Advanced. This 480-page campaign is the first of three volumes, and it is a 4.99 deal that will give you months of adventures for levels 1 to 5. It can be run as a sandbox or episodic adventure path. It has 4.9 stars and 38 reviews. This is one I had missed, and I'm grabbing it now!

Warhammer 40,000: Wrath & Glory, Core Rulebook. I returned to active gaming via the Warhammer 40k: Dark Heresy ruleset in 2008 or so. Warhammer 40k holds a special place in my gaming heart. 7.49

I already own the Witcher Pen & Paper RPG. I haven't run it, but I thoroughly enjoyed the lore aspect. 7.49

The Walking Dead Universe RPG. Honestly, I gave up on The Walking Dead sometime around Season 4. But for 4.99, I could be tempted.

I've only heard good things about Rivers of London, really good things. At 5.99, I'll gladly take the plunge.

Exalted: Essence. I'm not a fan of the Storyteller System. Admittedly, this is a streamlined version of Exalted 3e. Maybe I'd like it. Doubtful. 5.99

Humble Bundle - Free League RPG Megabundle

I have only one of the RPGs offered in the Humble Bundle Free League Megabundle—DragonBane. I backed the Kickstarter for that, and the boxed set is pretty, and the game reads well. 

For 18 bucks, you get the core rules of DragonBane, Mutant Year Zero, Tales From the Loop, Symbaroum, Forbidden Lands, Twilight 2000 4e, and Coriolis. Including sourcebooks and adventures for the games above, you get 29 books. That is simply an outstanding deal!

Free OSR - Mutant Future: Revised Edition (no-art version)

You've got to give it to Goblinoid Games. They did a great job with their initial releases, offering Free, No-Art versions of their PDFs.

Mutant Future is often seen as an OSR hidden gem. It is effectively a retro-clone of Gamaa World without going into the weird dice mechanics of Mutant Crawl Classics. Mutant Future should be in every OSR gamer's PDF library, and at the price of free, there's no reason not to.

The sinister and sadistic bleating of spidergoats echoes in the night, a complementary chorus to the rustling of an unfortunate victim caught in their webs. In deep, dank caves to the north, corrupted humans take communion with an unspeakably evil abomination they worship as a god. Shrill cries from the fields can only mean the vomit flies are back, molesting your livestock.

In short, just another day in the Mutant Future!

Mutant Future is a post-apocalyptic science fantasy RPG, in the same flavor of similar genre games from the late 70s and early 80s. The game is almost entirely open game content, and a free trademark license allows anyone to publish materials compatible with Mutant Future.

From the back cover:

Enter a post-apocalyptic nuclear wasteland filled with mutants, ruins, and radiation! You can take the role of an android, mutant human, mutant animal, pure human, and even a mutant plant! Seek wealth and ancient technological artifacts. Enter vast underground complexes and avoid killer robots!

Bundle of Holding - Engine GM Guides

I have been a fan of the various Engine GM Guides for years and have bought all these titles individually. At less than $10 for six titles, this is a must-have for any DM's reference collection.

Gamemaster! We've resurrected our November 2022 Engine GM Guides Bundle featuring ebooks from Engine Publishing that help improve your skill in running tabletop roleplaying games. Written by the experienced GMs at the widely read gamemastering blog Gnome Stew and by many of the field's leading RPG designers, Engine's system-neutral guides show how to prepare and run a game session, conjure interesting characters and storylines, manage an ongoing campaign, and (ahem) improvise when your players gleefully destroy your game sessions, characters, storylines, and campaign.

This revived November 2022 offer once again gives you the complete six-book Engine collection for less than the retail price of one guide. For just US$9.95 you get all six titles in this revived offer's Engine Collection (retail value $78) as DRM-free ebooks:

• Eureka: 501 Adventure Plots to Inspire Gamemasters
• Focal Point: The Complete Game Master's Guide to Running Extraordinary Sessions
• Masks: 1,000 Memorable NPCs for Any Roleplaying Game
• Never Unprepared: The Complete Game Master's Guide to Session Prep

• Unframed: The Art of Improvisation for Game Masters

Deal of the Day - Carcass Crawler: Issue Two (OSE)

Zines. Zines & dice. These are two of my favorite things. My collection always has room for more dice, and zines can fit on any shelf, physical or digital. Zines generally have far more "bang for the buck" than other gaming purchases, and they often fit into the "impulse buy" category. I really like zines :)

Today's Deal of the Day is Carrion Crawler: Issue Two for OSE. Typically, it is 7.50 in PDF, but until tomorrow morning, Carrion Crawler: Issue Two is on sale for 3.75

Issue 2 of Carcass Crawler — the official Old-School Essentials zine! Each issue is packed with new material for your games, including new character classes and races, new spells and magic items, new monsters, optional and expanded rules, referee advice, news, previews of in-development products, short adventures, and more!

In This Issue

• New classes and races: Two new elf variants. The phase elf and the wood elf.
• Item-based encumbrance system: A simple system for tracking characters' loads and movement rates, based on the number of items carried. (No more need to add up coins and weights.)
• Town services: Guidelines and prices for inns, jewellers, money changers, and traders, including a simple optional rule for haggling.
• Hiring retainers: Tables and extra guidelines for locating and hiring retainers.
• Quick equipment: A set of tables for expediting character creation by randomly selecting starting gear.
• Energy weapons: Complete rules for introducing high-tech energy blades and guns into your game, either as alien relics found in long lost treasure hoards or to accompany the sci-fi inspired classes in Carcass Crawler issue 1 (the hephaestan and kineticist).
• Snake cult monsters: 8 brand new monsters: creepy undead, guardian constructs, and devious serpents.
• The Tomb of Aum-Pharath: A mini-adventure in the trap-filled ruins of a snake cult temple.
• Adjudicating traps: Advice and optional guidelines for making traps a fun and engaging part of the game.

Free OSR - Worlds Without Number (Core Rules and SRD)

Kevin Crawford / Sine Nomine Publishing is well known for the various "Without Number" titles, all of which have a "Free Version."  If you don't yet own Worlds Without Number, Kevin's fantasy ruleset, here ya go ;)

Want the Worlds Without Number SRD so you can design your own ruleset? Look no further.

The stars gutter and the skies fade and the earth grows weary with years. Ages of men and of Outsiders have ascended and been forgotten, and only the bones of their cities and the dust of their dreams remain upon this tired world. The Legacy of their laws is woven deep now, the edicts of dead gods and fallen sorcerer-kings made to trace patterns of power we no longer understand. We are heirs to their unseen empires, and our lives are built upon their ashes.

Worlds Without Number is a fantasy role-playing game, one fully compatible with the hit sci-fi game Stars Without Number. It's built from the ground up to provide gritty, hard-edged adventure in the fathomless future of the Latter Earth, a fantastic realm of time-lost sorcery, savage foes, and barbaric splendor. The cold steel in the fists of your heroes and the half-understood sorcery in their tomes must suffice to overcome the monstrous remnants of ancient alien rulers and the present depredations of ruthless lords and hideous beasts alike. The riches of lost ages await in the subterranean Deeps that once held their kingdoms, and even the heavens above are not beyond the reach of the recklessly daring.

Worlds Without Number isn't just a savage game of steel and sorcery. It's packed solid with system-neutral GM tools and worldbuilding support, with hundreds of pages of useful tools, tags, tables, and practical advice usable by any GM, regardless of their favorite setting or system. The well-loved sci-fi tools of Stars Without Number are reworked here to support fantasy gaming, whether in the provided setting of the Latter Earth or in your own carefully-crafted homebrew world. Even GMs who don't prefer the OSR-compatible game system of WWN will find more than half the book dedicated to tools they can use in the systems they like best.

So what do you get in this book?

• Sword and sorcery heroes of blade, cunning, and spell. The proven OSR-compatible character creation system of Stars Without Number is redone here for a fantasy world of blade and black magic.
• OSR-compatible rules, allowing you to plunder decades of existing adventure material for your play. You can even pull in Stars Without Number content, as it's fully compatible.
• The Gyre region of the far-future Latter Earth, a premade sandbox for quick play. Venture forth to clash with the sinister powers that gather in the shadow of the waning rule of the Reaping King.
• Worldbuilding tools crafted to the renowned Sine Nomine standard. Did you like the hundred different world tags in SWN? Then have two hundred inspirational tags to help you build ruins, courts, communities, and wilderness points of interest. Grab a wealth of tools for building histories, societies, governments, religions, and geography, all written with a keen eye toward producing good, playable content for your adventuring group.
• Adventure creation tools to soothe the pangs of a working GM, with guides for building adventures out of combat, exploration, social, and investigative challenges. Use the tags you picked in the worldbuilding section to speed up your creation of a good night's gaming.
• Faction rules for fantasy worlds, with dark cults, fierce lords, grasping abbots, and greedy merchants all serving to keep your world in motion even when the PCs aren't on the scene.

Time to Prep for OSR Christmas 2024!

Yep, it's that most wonderful time of year. It's when OSR Santa gets together with the OSR Elves to ensure there are 12 Days of OSR Christmas goodies for good (or bad) boys and girls of all ages.

If you are a publisher of OSR-related products, or simply a generous member of the gaming community, and you want to provide gifts for OSR Christmas, hit me up at tenkarsDOTtavern @ that Gmail thing (doing what I can to avoid the scrub bot s;) Please put "OSR Christmas 2024" in the subject. Let me know what you are looking to gift to the community, and we will make it happen.

Santa requests that physical gifts be sent from the gifter directly to the giftee and that you tell Santa if there are restrictions on the physical gift (US Only or similar). PDF gifts using DTRPG coupon codes or similar are also great.

OSR Christmas started in 2013, over a decade ago, and has had a strong showing every year.

Thanks to all in advance.

Let's try to get all offers in by the end of November :)

Kickstarter - Ashes Without Number (Sine Nomine)

I'm a huge fan of Kevin Crawford and his Tag System. I own all of Kevin's core books in print and his non-core books in print and/or PDF. Ashes Without Number brings post-apocalypse roleplaying to the "Without Number" RPG Engine.

It should cover settings from Fallout to The Walking Dead and everything in between.

Ashes Without Number is $25 in PDF, $40 for at-cost POD and PDF, and $80 for PDF, a Smyth-sewn, offset-print hardback copy of the game. I'm in for the latter.

Ashes Without Number is a tabletop role-playing game for the end of the world. Whether as a civil collapse, alien invasion, zombie uprising, or post-apocalyptic wasteland, the game is built to give a GM the tools they need to carve out their own special slice of Hell.

Campaigns set amid radioactive dunes and savage mutant perils are supported in these pages, along with near-future tales of civil collapse, global plagues, and horrific shambling hordes. Just as with all Sine Nomine games, however, the book is built to support a GM in fashioning their own personal apocalypse, building worlds and settings to explore the kind of games they want to run.

Ashes Without Number is built on the same sturdy old-school game system as its sister-games in the Without Number line. Whether the fantasy adventures of Worlds Without Number, the sci-fi explorations of Stars Without Number, or the cyberpunk desperation of Cities Without Number, the game within these pages is built to interface smoothly with all these resources. The old-school framework also allows easy importation of other OSR games and content to help flesh out your own campaign.

A classic framework of six attributes, hit points, saving throws, and other traditional elements is supported by genre-specific rules and tools for bringing the right flavor of ruin to the table. Gritty perils of disease, traumatic stress, lingering wounds, and starvation are pointed up for campaigns set in a tragic near-future chaos, while wasteland marauders have support for mutations, scrap-built gear, and enigmatic ancient tech. These systems are built to snap smoothly into place in your campaign, letting you pick the ones that fit the feel you're aiming to create.

But at its heart, Ashes Without Number is shaped around the same system-neutral Sine Nomine tools that have won the other Without Number games such a warm place in the hearts of working GMs. Tools for building adventures, ruins, survivor enclaves, looming crises, horrible mutant creatures, and a host of other useful content are all designed to be system-neutral and usable with your own game of choice. Need to put an exploration-worthy ruin into your game? Just follow these tables and guidelines to get a quick, playable chunk of gaming fun, from the site's first-glance impression to the useful salvage still left amid the rubble.

Genre-specific rules for supporting three different campaign genres: post-apocalyptic Mutant Wasteland games, zombie-infested Deadlands, and near-future societal collapse in After the Fall campaigns.
