I really like the cloth maps that Free League makes for their games… and now so do the walls on our upstairs landing!

(And thanks to @bonhomiegames.bsky.social who gave me the Moria map while at UKGE earlier this year)

Somebody just went out of their way to explain about the OGL and third party publishing to me. Ummm.... thanks?

The second part of Echohawk's amazing article series looks at how much stuff was made by each #DnD setting over the years. Forgotten Realms way in the lead (no surprise there).

Just a quick Kickstarter update--today we paid the US tariff at port for the US-based Voidrunner boxed sets, which will now be sent to our warehouse and then picked and shipped to backers from there. We're in the home stretch!

That would represent an increase rather than a decrease, surely?

You can see the first half of 2025 in the graph. Can’t speak to the second half of 2025!

Morrus @morrus.bsky.social · 17d

This is interesting. The number of third party #DnD products being produced each year dropped sharply after 2023 back down to 2015 levels. The two big things I would attribute that to (off the top of my head) are the OGL crisis and the announcement of D&D 2024.

That is a question only you can answer!

Morrus @morrus.bsky.social · 21d

Sure!

Morrus @morrus.bsky.social · 21d

But it doesn’t say you can change back…

Based on a recent, very sensible conversation, which of the following superpowers would you choose:

- the ability to not taste vinegar
- the ability to sit on any type of chair
- the ability to turn into a fork

… and why?

Alos, like, if I DID reprint the Player's Handbook for him, would he buy it off me? Is that what he's after? Somebody to photocopy the Player's Handbook for him? That's... not a service we offer.

Sorry, hadn't checked BlueSky and didn't see this. Ping me before next week to remind me!

Well, my friend, it may surprise you to know that (a) there are games which are not D&D and (b) I have some bad news for you about D&D too. It's ALL made up, mate.

Because they are whispered occult incantations designed to slowly drive you insane in an elaborate plot to claim the crown of England. Or something.

Thanks for spotting that!

They’re not doing to us. They’re doing it to you.

Ugh. Every time I turn around this crap gets worse.

I made this a couple of years ago. Whacked it up on a website. Run it a few times at conventions or when players haven't turned up. A super-simple fun little TTRPG you can pick up in a minute with fantasy and sci-fi modes. Oh and it's free! Have fun!
