This may not be the crowd for historical wargames, but I wanted to mention it anyways: I just released my skirmish black powder rules "Musket to Rifle". It is skirmish warfare, think 2-4 units of 8-10 men each and is aimed at being a "true skirmish" game. Some rules have 8 figures try to form...

Karaktärsdrag i gamla Eon: I am re-reading my 1st edition book and this chapter always intrigues me. To me they look like something inspired by Pendragon but never really supported elsewhere in the rules. For those of you that played Eon before 4e, what did you do with them? Did you roll dice...

Ive been meaning to run a small "wargames" scenario for a while, so wanted to see if there was interest. Basically it will run more or less as an RPG sequence: You give orders and you hear back what comes out of it. I roll a few dice behind the scenes. It is players vs GM controlled forces, NOT...

Post number 8 billion (of 16 billion to come) Looking outside of Stockholm and equivalent big cities, how viable is an income in the range of 37-38k SEK before taxes for 2 people? I found an online tax calculator that suggested it would be about 29 or 30k after taxes. This is my current...

The thread about complex RPGs made me wonder: What do you consider a perfectly average complexity game for YOU? Meaning there are games that are easier and games that are harder. What is the exact middle of the scale? (it doesnt have to be a game you like or play currently, just a game you...

What music, band, album has been stuck in your head all week? Preferably with a link. For me, I rediscovered an album we used to listen to in college while playing 40K. Complete cheese

Pardon if I mis spelled the title. I was rereading the fiction bit in the opening of the original Eon book and found myself really liking it. What specific pieces of fiction (as opposed to setting or background) in Swedish RPG books have you really liked? Actual tie in novels don't count...

Cheers, I need some story ideas that are: A: Stand alone and mostly self contained. Think a mission that can be completed in 1-3 sessions. B: Suitable for law enforcement / anti terror / SVOT types. Sort of fits the 80s / 90s media vibe. So I thought I'd turn to you good folks and see what...

As with the other thread, I thought it would be cool to have a thread where people can discuss hockey results, complain when their team loses or just generally chat about the sport. I am pretty new to following hockey but followed the (mostly brand new) womens hockey league over here (PWHL)...

(I hope Tråd is the right term) With the Premier League and Bundesliga about to start up, I thought it would be nice to have a thread where people can post general observations, discussion and gripe about why the ref is clearly a swine taking bribes. If you are interested, drop a post with...

As you know, I am (slowly) researching areas in Sweden. So for today, tell me about living in or near to Göteborg. Assuming you are after being able to get basic groceries and other stuff around where you live: How far out can you live and still be pretty well connected by bus (or train?)...

Went to see The Mainliners, Bad Religion and Dropkick Murphys in Indianapolis last night. First "real" live show for the kid (18). Super good atmosphere, Bad Religion absolutely slayed, I can't even talk today, my voice is shot from singing along. Dropkick was a huge party. They stopped the...

A couple of months ago, we went over to Columbus in Ohio to see our MLS team, the Vancouver Whitecaps, play. (MLS is the highest level of US football, soccer as they say, probably equivalent in skill to the English Championship or Bundesliga 2) I am pretty certain we were the only 3 Vancouver...

With the Womens Euros behind us (and congrats, Sweden played a hell of a tournament, I wish you had gone through): When I was a kid, for any international team sport it always went like this: *Support Denmark until we were eliminated (or did not qualify). *Then support whichever of Norway or...

I got into womens hockey this year with PWHL over here (US/Canada teams) and was excited to see that from this coming season, SDHL will be shown on Youtube. So if you are a fan, tell me about the league! What are the notable teams? Who do you support? Who are the "scrappy underdog" teams?

Short and simple: Looking for something to start watching: It must be available on SVTs app and it must be in Swedish. (so none of the 8000 English crime dramas). Topic can be literally anything.

I've talked about this around the internet in the past, but I've been polishing off the technique lately. Gamebook style (GBS since everything that is cool must have an abbreviation) is a style I created for GMing, inspired by what I saw as the best ideas from series like Lone Wolf/Ensamma...

In your games of Mutant, how quickly did the characters end up with high tech weapons and kit? Was it something rare? Very quickly? Differed by campaign? Mostly thinking of the BRP based versions here, as YZ is a bit different. We've played a little but form the books it is sometimes a little...

What it says: You are tasked with creating an RPG that not only is not focused on combat, but which straight up will NOT have combat rules. What do you make the game about? What is the setting and theme? (And no, you cannot cheat and say "our universal resolution covers combat")

Cheers, just in case there are specific forum rules, I am NOT looking for anyone to help me find a house :) BUT I am looking for input on something. As a few may remember I am looking at moving to Sweden in the future (Danish citizen, I know how that all works) so I have been looking at...
