As a writer (of miniatures games) the fact is that core rulebooks sell better than expansions and expansions sell better than scenarios. My publisher has confirmed as much as well for RPGs. For my own uses, I will admit I rarely buy more than one extra book for a game. The exception is games...

A topic I can speak to :) "American RPG culture" varies a lot and is influenced as much by the games as anything else. STEREOTYPICALLY White Wolf games are heavy on people who are really into the vibes and their character interactions but the rules are kind of an after thought. D&D groups tend...

When someone in our group wanted to try their hand, we supported it as much as possible by basically "being easy": Going along with what we felt was the intent, not trying to get off on a distraction etc. Basically with an inexperienced GM, sit down to specifically play the scenario they are...

That summer we would shout “Zwei Null” at German tourists on the beaches :)

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...

Thank you so much! Its only been going since 2007 right? I will have a look at the “lag” and see if i can get a vibe from clips online.

Okay now that is interesting. Thanks!

Can I ask, why is it called MoDo?

If its not massive, I'd be happy to have a look though I may not be able to give super detailed feedback.

I don't think it says anywhere, but a lot of the vibes are the same with lots of detail about currencies, languages and very detailed world elements. Also a more "practical" approach to things like magic. I can def see it.

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?

A lot of these things had been floating around, the OSR just kind of condensed them when it tried to "recreate" what an idealised play style for OD&D must have looked like. Though I think its also notable that Gygax was talking about this, probably because it was NOT as universal as expected...

Harn and Harnmaster (the rules system) are god damn awesome. I ran a 1 year campaign of it and we had a grand time. I dont think Harn is all that complicated, though it IS very detail oriented. Having to figure out encumbrance when you change armour parts got old real fast, but it is very vivid...

Points systems always runs into the question of "How good do I have to be at swimming, before it is equal in value to having laser eyes?"

Also I see there are a bunch of "weekly talk show / evening tv" style programs. I wouldn't mind picking one to watch, preferably something a bit funny. Any suggestions?

I don't mind older television and for this purpose, its 50% entertainment and 50% listening to Swedish, but I appreciate the concern :)

Holy smokes guys :) Thanks! I did watch, and love, Historien om Sverige. I was going to say documentaries are definitely fine too.

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.

Ill bear that in mind next time, thanks!

No matter the game, a list of setting appropriate names so when one of thhe nerds asks what the bartenders nephew is called, I can say :)
