My wonderful wife @kasumikotonoha.bsky.social (main illustrator for the Sutra of Pale Leaves) and I are considering a livestream sometime this week to reminisce about KaijuCon and the Sutra project. Ask us anything anonymously at this link. (English/日本語 OK!) #TRPG

Having had the chance to play RuneQuest for the first time with Chaosium’s Andrew, I couldn’t help but appreciate the depth of the world building and thought that went into designing a respectful facsimile of a Bronze Age that could have been. Plus of course, you know, interceding gods.

There are dozens of us Troikallies in Japan! Dozens!

There’s also the (probably even more widespread?) alternative universe stuff where things are even worse!

Actually forgot to mention that this reminds me of the Merry Mushmen book design which also features this type of dust jacket. It’s very useful!

The @duckandcrow.bsky.social goodness has arrived, thanks for the message! 😊 Going right on top of the pile of recently arrived things. First impression: Clean formatting, maps in the inside of the dust jacket (usability!)…great start! Coming to a table very soon…

PS: We need logo stickers!

The history of all hitherto existing D&D-likes is the history of class struggles.

Paid Kriegsspiel: The conversation flows freely at the table until a point of disagreement about outcomes in the fiction emerges between participants. Players then put money on their desired outcome and the richest player gets their way.
