I've offered The City for Slay Beyond Slay at Tekniska on December 5th and for LinCon 2025.

Eight years ago I had an idea to create an ensemble drama in Ancient Greece. I got stuck and it didn't happen. Last week I found the key to unlock the design. It was steampunk. I'm happy to now present a tabletop roleplaying game for four players and one game master about the choices we make to...

I’m thinking to offer one or two of my story games at LinCon next year. I would love to see Death of Rapacus get more play and now I can reskin it as Ars Magica-ish. Plus I have a brand new steampunk drama in the making. Don’t know if I will make it to GothCon.

Lasermannen. He saw "aliens" everywhere.

Brindlewood Bay. I only know it from Morten Greis blog but it sounds like you could offload a lot of the actual mystery to the players and have fun coming up with locations and suspects. You would need to hack it from cute old women to propeller heads...

Minecraft the RPG With an exciting new dice mechanic where you build towers until they topple and show how many monsters spawn around you.

No pointy eared elves and orcs.

Thanks for sharing everyone. One quick reflection I had: Division by class in gaming groups may as well represent that we tend to play with people in our local neighbourhood in our first group. And boy have we divided our societies geographically by social class (and ethnicity).

Finished the book yesterday, here is a little review: https://thoughtfuldane.com/2024/10/29/review-outside-the-box/

One of the great features of playing a role playing game is that once you sit at the table, it doesn’t matter who you are outside the game. The hobby is much more than publishing, selling and buying games.

Thanks for sharing. I would love to learn more about the non commercial rpg culture in Sweden. Magnus’ book has its focus on published works and only takes up play culture (conventions, lajv, playing at home) en passant. Which is perfectly fair given Magnus’ point of view. But obviously there...

Or you can just download a free scenario about the Smurfs from Alexandria. I remember them as quite fun. But time may not have been kind to them. https://alexandria.dk/en/data?scenarie=270

Looks very well made. From skimming here and there: Nice choice of artwork. Headings could need some space to breathe more (but I'm not an expert). A little bit tighter editing here and there in the fiction (you can always do that). It's a setting and style of play that doesn't get me...

Clearly they are ready for the sequel! Maybe we should do a joint project?

Is it available in print outside Sweden? Asking for a friend.

If you REALLY want to know, there are threads out there... Short answer, 5th edition has been extensively play tested and fixed some bizarre issues with 4th edition that you would otherwise house rule (a naked man with a stick was more dangerous than a sword fighter in chainmail). It is also...

I shared some of my own reflections about the open license on a post on Thoughtful Dane just now. https://thoughtfuldane.com/2024/10/16/autumn-magic/

Ars Magica (none: players spend all time creating characters, their sanctum, their familiar, their shared library, magical and mundane defences, their list of spells and magical items, what they are studying right now, what they will study next, their teacher, their servants, their neighbours...

"If the entire Ars Magica line is unlocked by the campaign's close on November 14th at 8pm Central, then the Creative Commons content will include over 60 books, plus supplementary materials." "For decades, Ars Magica has fostered a passionate and creative fan base," said Michelle Nephew...
