Getting ready to run my Outsiders Beyond campaign Neo Gotham is older, meaner, and running on corporate leftovers Batman is mostly a myth now The heroes are fractured And half the city thinks masks just make things worse Exactly the kind of setting I like running #RPG #TTRP #SUPERS

Stormbringer RPG Felt dangerous in a way a lot of fantasy RPGs don’t anymore Magic was risky Combat was brutal And everyone looked doomed from session one Also summoning demons for basic problems never stopped being funny Peak chaotic fantasy energy #RPG #TTRPG #OSR

New quickstart is up! worldofmyrr.com/wp-content/u... #OSR #RPG #TTRPG

Every GM has that folder full of “future campaign ideas” Ancient curses Dead gods Cool maps Half-written notes Meanwhile the current party is arguing with a goblin named Steve for 45 minutes Tabletop RPGs are beautiful chaos! #OSR #TTRPG #RPG

They might have some pretty stiff competition in the Lovecraftian RPG space, but Graham Walmsley is one of the best horror game designers and Julian Simpson one of the best conspiracy horror storytellers.

Every adventuring party has one player who remembers snacks, healing potions, everybody’s problems, and somehow keeps the group alive. Congrats. Your party mom was just preparing you for motherhood. Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms rolling nat 20s every day. #TTRPG #OSR #RPG

OSR mindset but for coding Don’t overbuild Don’t overplan Make something small Run it Break it Fix it Then run it again Honestly feels a lot like running a dungeon Half the fun is seeing what goes wrong #OSR #CODING #RPG #TTRPG

Learning to code got easier once I stopped building “apps” Now I just build tiny tools for my games Random NPC generator Loot tables Weird event rolls Small scripts, real use Way more fun And I actually finish them #RPG #TTRPG #CODING #Python

You don’t need a new system You need to actually run the ones you already own That cool book on your shelf Yeah that one It’s not waiting for the perfect group It’s waiting for you to say “we’re playing this tonight” Worst case It’s messy Best case New favorite game #RPG #TTRPG #OSR

Really looking forward to this one. Download the quick rules here: www.worldofmyrr.com/wp-content/u... #RPG #TTRPG #OSR @rwhitters.bsky.social

Hot take The best RPG sessions I’ve run had less prep, not more A rough idea A few names One problem That’s it Every time I overprep, players go the other way anyway At this point I just show up with vibes and a notebook. ( and it really helps when players lend a hand...) #OSR #TTRPG #RPG

Superhero RPG tier list (yeah I’m ready to start fights!): S Tier Icons Marvel Super Heroes A Tier Mutants & Masterminds Prowlers & Paragons Sentinel Comics RPG B Tier BASH! Ultimate Edition SUPERS! Revised Edition C Tier Champions Villains & Vigilantes What did I get wrong? #RPG #TTRPG #OSR

Superhero RPGs are wild Some try to simulate every punch Others just go “roll and be awesome” And honestly? the simpler ones feel more like comics Big swings Weird powers Things getting out of control fast Less math More chaos #SuperheroRPG #OSR #TTRPG #RPG

GM confession time What’s one rule you just… ignore? Be honest Mine? tracking ammo for every single shot At some point it turns into accounting class Unless it’s dramatic, I just eyeball it Your turn. #RPG #TTRPG #OSR #gamemastering

Now that Front Mission 1, 2, and 3 are all out again…yeah this saga still hits! Also wild how FM3 still feels like the one everyone remembers War stories, corporate nonsense, giant robots Good combo Might be time for a full replay run #Frontmission #Mecha #RPG

Flail RPG is chaos on purpose Low HP Bad odds Weapons break Spells act up It feels like OSR after too much coffee and zero planning Combat pushes your luck like dice poker Sometimes you win Mostly you survive by accident get the free rules at: gamesomnivorous.com/pages/flail #OSR #TTRPG #RPG

Creating a random generator is one of the best ways to learn Python. You get to practice lists, loops, and logic while building something useful for your games. Tavern names, NPC quirks, loot tables. Small project, real results. #Coding #Python #TTRPG #OSR

Firefly is back! #firefly www.instagram.com/reel/DV6Js56...

Ruttigers Almanac..pure OSR goodness! #OSR #TTRPG #RPG www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti...

Icons is one of those superhero games that just wants you to start playing fast. Character creation is quick, powers feel comic-book wild, and the system stays light so the story keeps moving. Easy to teach, easy to improvise, when you want heroes jumping into action #TTRPG #SuperheroRPG #Icons

One thing I really like about Destined is how easy it is to mix with other Mythras settings. You can pull combat options, magic systems, creatures, or even whole scenarios from Mythras fantasy or sci-fi. Supers one week, cosmic horror or street crime the next. #TTRPG #SuperheroRPG #Mythras #OSR

Continuing with superhero RPGs, Destined really caught my eye. It’s built on the Mythras d100 engine, so it keeps that grounded, skill based feel even with super powers in play. Combat stays dangerous, choices matter, and heroes feel human. #TTRPG #SuperheroRPG #Mythras #OSR #BRP

Been checking out Stalwart ’85 and I love how indie, simple, and fun it feels. Core rules are lean and you’re in action fast. Has that old-school flavor but doesn’t bog you down in pages of math. Right now it’s PWYW! www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/4... #TTRPG #OSR #Stalwart85 #TTRP

Remembering my old copy of WG5 Mordenkainen’s Fantastic Adventure, now lost to time. I read it back in the day and it stuck with me(never got to run it). Greyhawk politics, rival factions, and a dungeon that cared more about choices than combat. Smart play mattered here. #OSR #DnD #rpg #ttrpg

A friend of mine is about to run Cyberpunk Red, so my brain immediately went into maker mode. Planning to build a simple bullet counter app in Flutter. Just taps, mags, and running out of ammo at the worst possible moment. Feels very on brand. #TTRPG #CyberpunkRed #Flutter #Code #RPG

Coming out of a long hiatus, vacations are awesome, and I finally cracked open Pirate Borg. It’s fast, brutal, and dripping with cursed seas and bad decisions. Same doom vibe as Mörk Borg, but with rum, cannons, and mutiny. Easy to run, easy to die. Love it. #TTRPG #OSR #PirateBorg #RPG

Happy New Year( in advance) to everyone!

Merry Critmas! #ttrpg #rpg #osr

Best NPCs are always the accidental ones. The guard with no name. The innkeeper you made up in five seconds. The random merchant with a weird voice. Players latch onto them, and suddenly they matter more than your carefully planned villains. Funny how that works. #TTRPG #DnD #OSR #RPG

First adventure memories hit different. Mine was Palace of the Silver Princess many decades ago. Died to a surprise crossbow bolt from two female thieves in a side room, Candella and Duchess. Lesson learned fast. What was your first run? #TTRPG #DnD #RPG #OSR

I steal ideas from video games all the time for my RPGs. A cool boss fight, a quest twist, a weird location, even the pacing of a dungeon. Games already solved a lot of problems we face at the table, so why not borrow what works and tweak it. #TTRPG #DnD #OSR #RPG

Thinking about my holiday gaming plans now that December hits tomorrow. Hoping to squeeze in a few sessions, try a winter one-shot, and maybe catch up on some books I’ve been meaning to read. Slow month, cozy games. #TTRPG #DnD #OSR #RPG

Thanksgiving-themed adventure ideas, keeping them weird, fun, and OSR-friendly: • A harvest spirit demands the “true tithe” this year: something more than grain. • A pilgrim caravan arrives with blessings… and a curse hidden in their wagons. #TTRPG #OSR #RPG

Happy Thanksgiving! Grateful for my players, the stories we build, and the chaos that comes from one bad dice roll. Every campaign turns into a memory worth keeping. Hope your table’s full of food, friends, and critical hits. #TTRPG #DnD #OSR

Been using AI lately to build quick NPCs and sample dialogue for my sessions. It’s great for prep , fleshes out side characters fast, helps find their voice, and gives me lines to tweak before game night. Always good to have a few surprises ready. #TTRPG #DnD #RPGPrep #RPG

Don’t punish players for choices, just let the world react honestly. Help someone today, they might save you later… or resent the debt. It’s not about being fair. It’s about making things feel real. #TTRPG #RPGDesign #RPG

Games hit harder when choices matter. Not just “good or evil,” but why someone does it and what it costs. A burned bridge, a lost ally, or the town that remembers what you did. Consequences give weight to dice rolls. #TTRPG #DnD #OSR

Coyote & Crow is a sci-fi fantasy RPG developed by First Nations devs, where colonization of the Americas never happened and indigenous peoples advanced into high-tech societies. Players explore a world of tradition, innovation, and destiny shaped by their communities. #ttrpg #FirstNations

Been playing with chronomancy and time travel in my current game, and it’s wild how it changes everything. NPCs can lie across time, prophecies turn into puzzles, and choices echo backward as much as forward. #TTRPG #DnD #OSR #RPG

Hey folks, do us a solid and help push the great folks at @stillfleet.bsky.social past their last stretch goal! Danse Macabre now in its last 18 hours! www.kickstarter.com/projects/wyt... And check out our interview! youtu.be/D5UiyCDwTt0 open.spotify.com/episode/3wLz... #ttrpg #osr

Tharizdun is the big bad of my current game, so I'm revisiting The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth. Strange relics, old powers, forgotten lore. It quietly sets the stage for darker stuff like the Temple of Tharizdun. You feel the shadow before you meet it. Lots of worldbuilding. #OSR #DnD

Evening crew:

Running a Halloween one shot in a few hours.

Halloween RPG ideas: • A village traps ghosts in pumpkins to keep the dead quiet • A masked festival where one mask belongs to something not human • A house that grows new rooms every night, each one stranger than the last Spooky works best when things feel almost normal…almost. #TTRPG #OSR #RPG

Going back to the original Ravenloft module. Still one of the best adventures ever written. Tight location, smart clues, real tension, and Strahd feels like a character not just a stat block. Gothic dread done right. #OSR #DnD #Ravenloft #RPG #TTRPG

DungeonDraft DungeonDraft has become one of my go-to tools for map making. It’s fast, clean, and doesn’t feel like “software gets in the way.” You can knock out a whole dungeon in one sitting without fighting menus. Great for homebrew prep. #TTRPG #Mapmaking #DungeonDraft #RPG

Online DM Tools There are so many great DM tools online now. Things like Donjon for quick generators, Kobold Fight Club for encounters, Owlbear Rodeo for quick maps, Kanka for worldbuilding, and Fantasy Name Generator for NPCs on the fly. Prep has never been easier. #TTRPG #DMTools #RPG

I’m reading the playtest rules for Ruttigers RPG and it’s shaping up to be something special. It keeps that clean OSR backbone but layers in a mythic tone that feels fresh. The art? Gritty storybook vibes that pull you right in. instagram.com/richardwhitters rhoringhad.blogspot.com #OSR #RPG #TTRPG

Of the most recent games I have read, this one really made me consider the rules lite aproach.Tombpunk is a rules-lite grimdark fantasy game built for fast play and bleak stories. Character creation takes minutes and the tone leans hard into ruin, rot, and desperate survival. #TTRPG #OSR #Tombpunk
