Fuck it, I’m open to negotiations. You want two free copies of each? I got you!

In all seriousness, I really want to see how this works when run by somebody other than me. It’s really important that I get this last bit of testing in before publication

In other news, Magic: The Gathering has captured my attention for the first time since highschool and I’ve been theory crafting lots of commander decks in my free time.

This may manifest itself in a new project after I get this adventure out lol

Having the thought that PBTA's sex moves aren't really innately about sex. They're about complicating, clarifying, or amplifying a relationship between characters.

And they're about vulnerability and risk.

Also, sorry Viditya, I'm using your post to springboard into this topic.
It's only PBTA if it has sex moves, otherwise it's just sparkling FITD

I’m excited to be in any article, but to have Footfall mentioned in the same breath as Mausritter is unbelievable! Thank you so much Petra and Goonhammer!
Today's article is two things: First and foremost, it's focused upon introducing your table to the wide world of options available to them when it comes to picking their second system.

Second, it was a chance to amp up and cheerlead for some my favorite indie TTRPGs, and the creators that made them
You've finished your first TTRPG campaign and are looking to start a second; what system should you choose? ohnoaskelton runs you through it in this week's Turn Order!
