That is really cool. Are there any indie miniatures game designers in Sweden?

They've discussed a very ambitious release schedule in various spots around the web. I can't find it right now there was a ton of stuff lined up, so I'd probably hold off buying old PDFs just for now.

Are there other regional accents that are especially difficult to understand ? Also if someone can tell me about how Finlandssvenska differs, Id be curious as well. :)

I wonder how much of this is to do with magic levels and monsters maybe. It really is not something we ever raised as a problem and it is rarely raised on Runequest forums that I ever see. Our experience was mostly DoD 87 and Expert (Danish version) but a lot of attack forms can't be parried to...

It IS worth noting you can also play Pendragon where you create your own campaign and go do whatever stuff the group wants to do. Stafford saw the Great Pendragon Campaign as more or less his lifes work, so it is the "optimal" way the game is intended to be played but don't let me give the...

Also Thomas Malory can't go 5 pages without shitting on how cowardly Cornish knights are :) I could see an Orkney oriented campaign being really awesome but the GM would have to plan ahead for it and it would take a very different turn.

I got curious so I went to check Le Morte D'Arthur and...it never says quite outright but probably not (as far as Pendragon is concerned). Arthurs mother is Queen Igraine who was from Cornwall and Uther Pendragon who was "king of all England". Arthur is raised by Sir Ector who "is a lord of...

i should be clear that we havent tried the 6e mass battle rules yet.

Aye, Salisbury is in England. Though you could start in Wales just fine, the only area that probably won’t work is Cornwall.

Aha, that explains it. They've had a couple interviews with Danish players in the Allsvenskan who spoke pretty much straight Danish but with the Swedish words instead of the Danish ones which sounded absolutely mad :) Is there a name for the "standard SVT accent" they tend to have for their...

Okay, I have a tiny bit more energy today. Some thoughts in no particular order. These are from running all of chapter 1 from start to finish, plus running 10 or so one shot scenarios over the years. This was using 5e for the campaign and 1e for some of the one shots, as well as using some of...

Over the years we have done almost every possible combination of setups. Some good, some bad. I will say the biggest change over the years as we have less time is that everyone just assumes we are here to play the scenario whether its something everyone agreed on in advance or we are making a...

Theres been stories over here in rural states of house cats chasing off a bear by swiping the nose. Was it DoD Expert which had a morale check the first time a creature takes damage? :)

When we went to the zoo last and got to be within like half a meter of a grizzly bear, me and my kid were talking about how in games you can basically take on a bear with a sword or axe and its no big deal, but when you see the size of it up close, no, you couldn't. It would just eat you and...

Covid not conducive to heavy thinking, but I had a language question for you friendly lot. On SVTplay I have been watching "Fotbollstudion". If you are familiar, the guy that always sits on the left of the set, where is his accent from? He talks very differently from other Swedish Ive heard...

A post I read from a Mutant player some time ago said that BRP is best with guns. Conversely, it of course started as a fantasy system (Runequest was 78, Call of Cthulhu was 81). So I thought I would ask the floor: Do you prefer BRP as a fantasy / medieval system or as a modern / scifi system?

I have adapted Burning Wheels "Let it ride" to most games I play (in short don't ask for or allow repeated rolls for the same thing, the roll stands until things change whether it passed or failed). I suppose thats more a GMing principle than a rule but it IS a rule in Burning Wheel, so thats my...

https://www.warrelics.eu/forum/equipment-field-gear/history-british-army-torch-flashlight-through-wwi-wwii-668280/ Military flashlights from the world wars. Relevant for Call of Cthulhu and similar. There were a number of other designs available too, including ones looking more like a...

Pendragon is fantastic, one of the most immersive games ive ever played but the group has to be on board with wanting to play arthurian knights. I got covid so cant think right now, but when i have a bit more energy, I can share some tips from when Ive run it for people.

any PDF option?
