The hype continues! I expect #Dieselshot's Mech Pilot Stock Art Pack (stylistically compatible with our previously released Cyberpunk packs) will be released early next week (Tuesday or Wednesday or at the latest Thursday) with a smaller "Mecha" vehicle pack released later!

It is in essence how wealth is handled in #ShadowlightAndPersonaeRPG. You have spheres of bounty, which can be anything from hard cash to lines of credit to a property deed. That sphere gives you a bonus die on relevant skills.

#TTRPG #TTRPGs #TTRPGSky The more I play #Daggerheart & the less I play D&D the more I treat the world, especially the small parts of the world like villages and settlements, like post-capitalist, barter & skill/trade-share economies.

I consider #CandelaObscura a precious jewel, that I wish more creators were supporting.

So I can't pass up the chance to talk about Beyond the Lighthouse by @lalionnepublishing.itch.io! A brilliant supplement expanding the #TTRPG beyond the lands of Hale.

Aye. As someone who has struggled (and sometimes still struggles) with mental health, I throw my love, respect, and support to all-a-y'all in the fight.

Through raising awareness, I hold out hope that we can lessen - and wipe out - the stigma surrounding mental health matters.

Today is World Mental Health Day.

Sending love to those who...

-are struggling mentally
-have no support system
-are scared to speak up
-are fighting suicidal thoughts
-are in therapy
-are in recovery

[green hearts appear over the six different situations listed above]

I can't remember exactly what it stands for off the top of my head, but every letter is a category of success, like Fantastic, Awesome, Special, Excellent or something like that.

I think I loved it as much as I did though because it was Star Wars, and official for that matter, but really it could've been any rules system under the hood.

I was sad when WEG lost the license, but glad it kept going. d20 Saga Edition was the best iteration of the d20 era IMO.

Craig aka Tezrak ➡️ GameHole Con @tezrak.bsky.social · 1d

My first ever licensed RPG was TSR Marvel FASERIP. It was fine. The next one was WEG Star Wars and I loved it. I wasn't nearly as system savvy then as I am now though. The campaigns I ran, because I was mostly the GM, were in the SW galaxy but nowhere near any of the established storylines.
