@jst.bsky.social Loving Aetherway… Repeatedly using it to bookend a bunch of open-table one-shots here… Are print copies available for purchase anywhere? (Same question, re 2400! :)

Great quote @wyrmworksdale.bsky.social, re: "soon"… «Now, because we have already established that our ability to predict timelines is somewhere between “aspirational” and “performance art,” I am using the word soon with caution, humility, and a slightly haunted expression.» 🤣 Totally stealing it!

This regular patent application stemmed from an earlier provisional patent application that was filed around the same time as Gen Con 2024. Independent claim 15 (in its current form) is not limited to card games either...

Physicality sometimes seems basic, and sometimes complex. That makes it complex, imo.

"Some people! Some people like cupcakes exclusively / while I myself I say there is naught / nor ought there be nothing so exalted / on the face of God's grey earth / as that prince of foods / The Muffin!" – The Muffin Man, Captain Beefheart & Frank Zappa (1975)

It seems, some game designers want referees to insource everything from within their #ttrpg systems, encouraging us to find applicable rules for every scenario that arises. Say what you want about #DnD, but at least we're encouraged to make the game our own, to drop or modify things as desired.

"True, we build no bridges. We raise no towers. We construct no engines. We paint no pictures … There is little of all that we can do which the eye of man can see. But we smooth out difficulties..." 1/2

It may be worthwhile to check out this new actual play at some point… That said, @glasscannonnetwork.bsky.social and @penny-arcade.com's #AcquisitionsIncorporated are among the best actual plays I've seen. Here's hoping this one ranks up there too!

100% agree. However, whether most recognize it or not, we are already all creators.

M'lords, if it please the crown… I have seen the promised (and promptly delivered) PDF for #GallowsCorner – A Peasants' Revolt RPG. And, it's f--king beautiful. Kudos @threesailsstudios.bsky.social

My set of ye olde GDQ modules, from back in the day. (Still in pretty good shape.) ((And, imo, the DnD trilogy we deserve.)) #dnd #ttrpg #dndhistory. #oldschooldnd #dndmovie. #giants, #kuotoa, #drow, the demonweb & #lolth

They should have said "by taking a screenshot of this paragraph..." 🤣

Another wonderful post by @worldsbywatt.bsky.social... The world needs more artists. I'd venture that if you don't consider your "day job" art, then you may not be doing it right. And, there's maybe something else you could be doing right now... Onward! :) www.patreon.com/posts/what-i...

I was just forwarding the classic #Orwell essay 'Politics and the English Language' to a friend, who's never read it... I was surprised to learn she hadn't! Anyway, leaving this here: www.orwellfoundation.com/the-orwell-f...

Count me in, should @jpcoovert.bsky.social ever decide to drop a whole TOME of just his all original maps. Over a wide range of game systems/genres. #justsayin for example, a mix of Pirate Borg, Mythic Bastionland, Mothership, Perilous Void, Cairn, Cloud Empress, Mausritter, and Slugblaster maps 🌏😍😎

Unlike some final 4s, March Radness is non-commutative… Bracket ordering makes a difference. Votes in later brackets may depend on who won an (otherwise separate) earlier bracket. Now that CRIME won, one outcome of GODS vs. CITIES, upstart or trad, may be more likely than the other… Feat. not bug :)

Seeing thinner "official #D&D" books these days, I wish (now more than ever) for a switch to -- the, imo, much more preferable -- A5ish size books. The hobby's evolved since (the #MonsterManual in) 1977. Unadventurous book design is a poor match for the game's creativity. #justsayin @ #wotcstaff

"He created us—his *champions" (The Cerulean Storm: A Prism Pentad Novel, by Troy Denning) This *season in 2026, will your heroes travel back to the Time of *Magic in #DarkSun 's Green Age… If so, will it be as part of #D&D Encounters… ? ;) #dungeons&dragons #WOTCstaff #ttrpg #worldbuilding #dnd

🎉 The Weaver & The Redcaps, a short adventure feat. quickstart rules and 6 pregen characters for #Dolmenwood, coming for #freeRPGday to perilous fairytale woods near you! (After it'll be available too:) Kudos @ #NecroticGnome, Gavin Norman, C. Dudinack, @bradkerr.net & @exaltedfuneral.bsky.social

#CloudEmpress 'Land of the Living' and 'Land of the Dead' hit retail in Canada. Woot! Kudos @ratti.bsky.social and @worldsbywatt.bsky.social :)

How I arrived on Bluesky... [dumpster fire (aka xschwitter), unicorn bear dgaf]

Gallows Corner - A Peasants' Revolt, kickstarter ends later TODAY. Get in NOW to get a finished digital copy in the next couple weeks, and your physical copy by this summer. It's going to be a hot one!

Didn't every #patent attorney have this #boardgame as a kid... ? I still have my copy, seen here. Pulled it out today, since I might use that #DiceTower device in a future #DnD* session. * i.e., #ttrpg

Might I venture to suggest that such a momentous plan would need to be taken up higher, ideally to Vice-Overseer for Strategy Aacarcerax? #dungeoninc #ttrpg

Some rare #freetime, on a lazy Saturday afternoon. #ttrpg #ttrpgbooks

It's pretty awesome! I plan to slot in Dungeon, Inc. as a liminal outworldly space akin to #StygianLibrary, but nonlocated between all #mythic-dungeons, across all worlds. I trust standard #Dungeon,Inc portal EULAs and licensing rates apply. Do I speak with Treasury or Expansion dept. about this? 🤣

In particular, for me, it's this sentence: "The possibilities are limitless and make every location different in a way that is player-salient." (This, said of "Locality" encounters, i.e., area-specific events apart from standard random encounters.) 💙 Still love it!

M E M O R A N D U M TO: Hosts & Reception Need more of this. Truly, Expansion Department Dungeon, Inc.

Keep on the Borderlands map, from the #D&D Starter Set, with alternate class boards: Barbarian, Bard, Druid, Ranger, and Warlock.

Arrived today! (It's a Valentine's Day miracle 🤣) Latest adds to my #ttrpg bookshelves: Swords of the Serpentine, and A Life Well Lived. Beautiful! 👀❤️ Kudos @kevinkulp.bsky.social, Emily Dresner, @pelgranepress.bsky.social, @cubicle7games.bsky.social & @magicmadhouse.bsky.social #SotS

TIL / was reminded of the term "yellow journalism" when I heard someone say, nowadays, we'd call it "clickbait" PSA @ #DungeonTube : Dump the narrow definitions, don't do it, and love you! #DnDtube #YellowJournalism #TabloidJournalism #ClickBait en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_...

I'm a couple days late to the party, but... Excellent news! Congrats to @pelgranepress.bsky.social and Compose Dream Games (@joshuakitz.bsky.social). That's awesome!

#SpiceDAO #NFT / #NFTs That is, it seems, (i) some among the scammers may have driven up the manuscript's final cost at auction via #ShillBidding / #BidShielding. And, (ii) another subset may have initially bought the manuscript, and then resold it to rest of the #DAO at a ~3x multiple, iirc.

I backed #GallowsCorner from @threesailsstudios.bsky.social. Ask your feudal lord if "A Peasants' Revolt" (RPG) might be right for you... ? Or, maybe just decide for yourself! ;P www.kickstarter.com/projects/thr...
