For the Thursday crowd? What can I say about The Explorateur this time... I try to improve it every month. Sometimes it's funny. Sometimes it's compelling. I always find something new. And it's focused on design—which leads to more curation. Tell your friends (and your enemies). I want both.

The first Double Feature from Cairn Press hit 200% funded today! Pretty cool, pretty cool. 6 days to go. www.kickstarter.com/projects/cai...

The Bastionland Presser now has a Letters to Bastionland segment where you can send a letter through for possible publication and response in next week's newsletter. Go check it out and send me something interesting. bastionland.substack.com/p/rules-for-...

For those who don't know... @robbiaburns.bsky.social is a fucking sicko. So good thing we paired them up with fellow sicko @quinnblackwell.bsky.social for an upcoming release of a stand alone stand alone solo game created by Quinn for use with @bastionland.bsky.social's Mythic Bastionland.

Yeah I'm probably just going to end up writing 1,000+ dumb rules for these guys aren't I. www.bastionland.com/2026/07/nca-...

This weekend is Between Two Cons! Badges are sold out but you can still visit the vendor hall! Cairn Press will be there, selling first and third party modules. If I seem even more "extra" than usual, I apologize in advance. I'll be busy! See you in Portland. tabletop.events/conventions/...

For a while I played with the idea that the "steeds" in Mythic Bastionland would all be non-horses, so it's fun to imagine these as alternative options.

Reposting because I truly believe we can make it! I only need about 40 more backers to reach my second stretch goal of drawing A BUNCH OF WEAPONS, ARMOR AND MAGIC ITEMS.

Game design is really just creating a bunch of annoying coworkers for the characters. www.bastionland.com/2026/05/pres...

Intergalactic Bastionland Update 26/06/26 Just updated the playtest doc with: - Tighter framing of the characters as new Heads on the ship, with an upcoming trial - Exploded a few pages into spreads with more baseline information about the setting - More naval bullshit bit.ly/ibplaytest

It's the UK Games Expo this weekend, so I'll be wandering the NEC as usual but will also be spending a bit of time at the MYTHIC BASTIONLAND ALTAR on the GMS stand 3-844. I'll be there Midday-2pm each day of the expo. I'm also hoping there will be a handy visual aid dangling from the sky.

In CITY OF ESPERS, your characters are part of a House, a group of bonded Espers who work together! Some have existed for years, others are brand new and just developing! Let’s take a closer look at one of these as an example, the House of Fantabulosa. Pre-save the Backerkit: tinyurl.com/ynrc6e3d

Not actually about stars. www.bastionland.com/2026/05/trin...

The Doom of the dark is FUNDED! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gaw... thanks everyone I was so nervous!

It's #CityOfEspersRPG Thursday, and I'm hosting a mini painting/art jam until the campaign in September! Create your own Esper OC with these roll tables, and I'll share your work on air! Kitbashing miniatures was an early inspo for the game, dope to make it an event! @threesailsstudios.bsky.social

Alright let's piss some people off

We're well on our way to our goal! If you haven't seen it yet, My illustrated guide to Demons is a big old artbook full of Demon drawings that come with a big old folder of demon .pngs you can use as references at the table. Like this little freak. www.backerkit.com/c/projects/b...
