I'm joined by @gubdm.bsky.social of Look Out Behind You Studios and Triglav Games. Gub talks about his philosophy behind adventure design, contributing to the vampire class, working on The Boggits of Kingsmire, and where the Kiln class comes from. GoblinPoints.com/2609 #drawsteel

If anyone is looking for some wacky timescape #DrawSteel, it’s hard to top these guys. One of my favorites from the jam.

Pushing monsters from high places in Draw Steel just never gets old. Ever!

Check out this rad new Draw Steel subclass — I've playtested it multiple times, and it's hot!! 🔥💀 #drawsteel #ardentskull

Happy to announce the launch of my first big Draw Steel product, Space Battles! This 68 page supplement includes 4 timescape ancestries, rules for spacefighter combat, and new classic sci-fi solo monsters! #drawsteel jennyredacted.itch.io/space-battles

Jams of the Timescape Volume 2 has been a massive success, James is going all in on MCDM's new RPG Crows, Crack the Sun successfully funded at twice their goal and more! Listen on GoblinPoints.com/2604 #drawsteel

I think the bit of design I’m happiest about is the Forms of Sleep. In a way, the College of Sundered Sleep is actually 4 different subclasses. 1) Pure Dream 2) Pure Nightmare 3) Dancing back and forth between the two 4) Blending dreams and nightmare until you can’t tell the difference (1/2)

ME: yeah could i get the impossible burger with cheese. THE VIZIER WHO'S BEEN ADVISING ME: ahh, an excellent choice sire. an imitation of the genuine article. there are some "friends" of yours to whom it bears a passing similarity ME: you want anything VIZIER: [chuckles] what i want is of no import

Super excited to see this come out! Seeing artwork for something you made on the cover of a zine is a pretty mind blowing experience. Go check it out everyone!

¡Nuevo vídeo de Cómo jugar a Draw Steel! Los Kits son la primera sección del manual que leí cuando los publicaron, las ideas que tomaron para crearlos me llamaban mucho la atención. ¡Espero que os guste! ⚔️ youtu.be/GsK7gUdXbLo #DrawSteel

Just 40 minutes and $130 left to get some art included in the Nightmare Scenario.

One week left to back The Kiln! #DrawSteel #TTRPG #Kiln www.backerkit.com/c/projects/l...

After months of hard work and many evenings giggling as I turned wacky kobold prompts into stat blocks, I'm thrilled to announce that version 1.0 is ready! If you got it on Itch, you can download the new version from the Itch page. If you got it on Backerkit, a download email should go out soon. 🧵

Congrats to everyone who submitted! And now my toil begins… I’m planning to give detailed feedback on EVERY entry (wish me luck), but if anyone wants in depth criticism (normally I’m focused more on the good than the bad), and/or to offer some suggestions message me here or discord saying as much.

I’m happy to announce that we have broken triple digits! Currently 102 submissions to Jams of the timescapes. Here’s hoping we hit 110 in the final 6 hours. itch.io/jam/jott02-a... #DrawSteel

Dojikaan does very good work! Highly recommend them if you are looking for artwork on a Draw Steel project.

Had a wonderful chat with Jon about all things Draw Steel: content, community, freelancing, and more! Go give it a listen ⚔️

Last chance to submit your entry to Jams of the Timescape! I made my entry last time with less than a day left, and you can too! 16 hours remain! itch.io/jam/jott02-a... #DrawSteel

Something COMPLICATED is happening in just a few days! Amazing cover art by @goatnokama.bsky.social

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step. 1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish. 2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

This also works with shorthand text! On my sheet I’d write the ability Brutal Slam as “7/10/13 damage, push 1/2/4”. Do whatever works best for you.

THE KILN is fully funded!! Thank you to all the backers and everyone who helped get this project as far as it is already <3 can't wait to get to work taking it all the way to the finish line!

I've added a Supplement Index to Stawl: stawl.app/supplements A comprehensive list of published adventures, classes, kits, treasures, monsters and more, made for Draw Steel!

There's still time to participate in #JamsOfTheTimescape! You've got a week left to submit your entry: make an ancestry in the style of the Draw Steel core rules. Check timescapejams.com/volume-2 for details

We've already had the first submission to the Ancestries of the Timescape: timescapejams.com But there's a week and half left, still plenty of time to participate! We're a solid bunch in the Discord server and people are buzzing with ideas! timescapejams.com/discord #drawsteel #JamsOfTheTimescape

We are back with episode 6 of The Psychogenic Symposium; join me (Jacob), Will, and @tintenseher.bsky.social as we discuss Draw Steel and do some design! As always, whatever we design is available on our psiocratic-press.itch.io; although spoiler warning for the episode. youtu.be/2q3ug9rwBwI

Kind words by someone out there who's excited for The Kiln! www.wargamer.com/draw-steel-t... #DrawSteel we're only a little under $900 short on the backerkit of funding so we can get this thing fully arted and tested! www.backerkit.com/c/projects/l...

Please listen and validate my deep-lore-based pun 🙏 #drawsteel

We're back! @thedicesociety.bsky.social and I are doing another Draw Steel game jam! It starts in a week, with the theme reveal. In the meantime, here are some details: youtu.be/1w5i8KyUlD0

Today’s a big for MCDM! Thanks to everyone who made the Crack the Sun crowdfunding campaign a success! It’s gonna be magic! As of today, I’m no longer the Lead Designer of Draw Steel products, and I’m stepping into the role of Game Director of our next RPG, Crows. I can’t wait to play it with you.

THE KILN is live on Backerkit! #DrawSteel www.backerkit.com/c/projects/l...

It's finally out! THE VESSEL! The full PDF version of my class for @hellomcdm.bsky.social 's #DrawSteel has released! Interested in a witch or warlock class for DS? You can look at a 5 level preview! chaoticgoodra.itch.io/the-vessel

Folks, less than 24 hours left to back Nomas! ('Ground floor' backing is like 30 euro, by the way) If you want to bring your #DrawSteel group to Capital, then this is the closest thing I've seen so far! Drag n drop organizations, monsters, named NPCs, the whole shebang In any case, Happy New Year!

Only 2 days left to get the Carnophage Booklet for #drawsteel on sale! The booklet features the Carnophage monster band and two unique DTOs. If you want gory vampires to throw at your heroes, look no further! itch: shadowhand-gaming.itch.io/carnophage-m... patreon: tinyurl.com/34z67mwz

Something I've been curious about: Are there any #DrawSteel communities outside of the main #MCDM discord/subreddit/etc.? The only one I'm aware of is the homebrewery discord, and that's still closely tied. I'm guessing there might be some on some RPG forums, but I'm not familar with those spaces.

New #DrawSteel adventure! In which you fight a moon in space! Wait, that's not a moon! That's... dima-serbin.itch.io/the-matter-o...

The Carnophage Booklet is still on sale; get it now and continue the holiday feast! #drawsteel #ttrpg

Have you ever wanted to run an adventure in a dream? Look no further: Nightmare Scenario's teaser is out now! I've partnered with @tintenseher.bsky.social and Onkeen (aka adventure fourth) to make a dope product for @hellomcdm.bsky.social 's Draw Steel! www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti...

The Kiln is coming to Backerkit! with art by the incredible @jaspinplanet.bsky.social www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti... #DrawSteel

In tactical RPGs we often see the "how do I optimize MY hero" discussion, which certainly happens with Draw Steel, but I have also seen a lot of people say stuff like, "If you really wanna optimize in DS, you should focus on the party not the individual." That was by design, and I'm glad it works.

Carnophages are probably one of my favorite homebrew monsters I’ve tested with. Piles of gore across the battlefield that serve as force multipliers for the monsters, and controlling/killing those piles presents a fun and unique tactical challenge. I highly recommend checking it out.

A huge thanks to everyone who backed Hooked on Crafting for Draw Steel! The campaign was a success, raising over 240% of the funding goal ⚔️❤️ To celebrate, I wrote a post talking about the experience and giving creators a few tips for their own crowdfunders. thedicesociety.com/crowdfunding...

Only one day left! Get 20% off and help me turn my Draw Steel supplement into a reality ⚔️ Back now! thedicesociety.itch.io/hooked-on-cr...

Quick #DrawSteel house rule to try out for folks playing at higher echelons. Replace potency values as follows (for both heroes and monsters): Weak potency = 0 Average potency = half highest characteristic Strong potency = highest characteristic Makes the game much more fun and dynamic IMO.

If your looking to support small creators, and maybe pick up something fun for your GM or table, take a look at our wares! We've got magic items for Draw Steel, rituals and contraptions for Blades in the Dark, and newspaper templates for (almost) any system and setting!
