I am shocked, SHOCKED I tell you, to find there are copies of Tabletop Gaming still unsold, in high street stores. Despite many COMPELLING reasons to buy, including a review of our game, clearly noted on the cover. Buy now while you still can.

What do an infinite number of monkeys create in a couple of hours? It might be a game of Tales of the Old West They will be starting between 8 and 9 this evening ( UK time ) www.twitch.tv/infinitemonk...

Our latest episode is packed tight, featuring news from the world of gaming (including a rant about AI creation), a fabulous review of TotOW and a controversial adventurer from the Old West of the 1850s share.transistor.fm/s/b0017d6a

we talked about AI in our latest issue. Feels like good time to share thoughts

Booked our stand (same as last year 3-601) and paid our deposit for #UKgamesexpo next year.

Our friendly player Ichiban is writing up a solo playthrough of Tales of the Old West on RPGGeek rpggeek.com/rpgitem/4562...

We are down to just 8 copies of the standard book in our warehouse.

If you're a National Trust member, it's that time of year again: Midnight tonight is the deadline. It's a shame people have to keep doing this to keep a toehold on historical truth in this country, but here we are. Voting link: www.nationaltrust.org.uk/who-we-are/a...

A funeral (a great celebration of a life, for a lovely person) delayed this announcement but our latest episode is out. Recorded live at #Spelkongress, we interview the three Great Old Ones of Swedish RPGs… plus @magnusseter.bsky.social share.transistor.fm/s/9c3ae454

A great review

Why does #TabletopGaming magazine give #TalesoftheOldWest the coveted #MustPlay rating? You will have to buy a copy available in UK stores from today. Or online ttgami.ng/offers

What an event! Straight back to work after returning from Stockholm. What a weekend! These pictures don‘t do it justice! If you are a Swedish TTRPG gamer, you should go. It was a great honor to be invited. Thank you Free League 🙏

We are going to #Spelkongress25

Peter Thiels and Elon Musk’s #Paypal isn’t technically down but you can’t sign in on the app, and the website won’t do anything. These billionaires should keep their fucking tongues out of politics and make things that work.

If you see this, quote post with your favorite Pokemon (wrong answers only)

Drew Struzan’s style was our inspiration for the cover of Tales of the Old West. So dirty to hear he has gone, but his art lives on.

Want to know more about the mechanics of our game? Incida will be exploring live this evening…

Just 18 copies of the standard book in stock at the warehouse. We have ordered a reprint though. 🙏 Thank you to our backers and customers for such an enthusiastic reception.

One of the things we announced in today’s episode is our free Made in the Old West license. We made the system, but the stories are yours. If you want to publish adventures for Tales of the Old West, to share, or to sell, we want to let you Details and logo: www.effektpublishing.com/home/made-in...

Our latest episode is out and it doesn‘t feature an interview with Free League’s Tomas about #InvincibleRPG (because we didn’t actually manage to press 🔴Record 🤦) but we talk about it, plus Cosmic Corsairs, Vaesen, Alien and #Spelkongress25! share.transistor.fm/s/d680b976

We are shocked to hear this news. Rob has been a fixture the TTRPG news sphere for decades. Co-host Matthew remembers a long interview/conversation with him about the MWP Firefly RPG which he co-created. A huge loss to the community.

Co-host Matthew played in this game, moments after TOTALLY FAILING to record an interview about it with Free League’s Tomas Harenstam 🤦‍♂️

Invincible, the super hero RPG currently seeking funding by Freeleague, has its quickstart and we will take it for a spin Thursday 1930 UK on Twitch and moonbeam. Join us with @reluctantartsy.bsky.social @effektpodcast.org and other players at twitch.tv/raldanash #pnp #ttrpg #freeleague #invincible

Have you been waiting to start a campaign until the there is an on-line tool to help you run it for your dispersed players? Check out Tales of the Old West RPG - Core Rules Module on the Foundry VTT Marketplace - www.foundryvtt.store/products/tot...

Friend of the show @raldanash.bsky.social has created a short how to video on downloading and installing the Tales of the Old West core module youtu.be/mf8LQdUPsf4?... KS backers are getting it for free right now but as soon as it’s approved for retail it will be available to the general public.

What IS hot, TabletopGaming magazine? (And while I am here let’s just celebrate that we can buy an independent tabletop gaming magazine on the high street). Oh look, #TalesoftheOldWest gets a mention in the Western themed Indie Roundup. That’s cool 😎

Great to hear Jolene and Saul Morales on Gaming Perspectives talking about #TalesoftheOldWest as a non-violent game (because of reluctance to start a fight of course). Both times he ran the adventure in the core book, it was resolved without a shot being fired. overcast.fm/+AANez3zQwSA

Have you dreamed of jacking your day-job in and devoting your time to writing TTRPGs? A couple of years ago, co-host Dave did just that. And this is what he learned … Plus Invincible, Vaesen, Conan and some Old West news share.transistor.fm/s/8a279ee7

Foundry VTT fans, the system is live! foundryvtt.com/packages/tal...

During the KS for #TalesoftheOldWest the generous support of backers meant we promised 3 extra PDF adventures, the first of which The Las Vegas Legacy is released today, by amazing coincidence *exactly* one year after the stretchgoal that unlocked it was reached www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...

The latest episode is a Dragonbane special as Andreas Lundström of Nordic Skalds talks about Windheim Falling, the second part of their epic campaign. But then he also shares a secret piece of news that will excite many of our listeners. Plus chat from me and Dave… share.transistor.fm/s/1198c715

We are officially sold OUT of Trouble dice. Should we make some more?

Gorn Fishing

@tabletopscot.bsky.social, we are in you!

All the FreeLeague stock that we are taking to @tabletopscot.bsky.social

Our latest episode came out today, in which we talk about creating NPCs for Tales of the Old West, plus the Coriolis 3rd Party license, Windheim Falling and Tabletop Scotland share.transistor.fm/s/10df219a

We will be there, Dave wearing his Free League outfit, selling loads of stuff, including the new Coriolis: The Great Dark, and Matthew in his Effekt Publishing guise, selling the excellent Tales of the Old West

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who's coming to save you? Hmmmm could go either way ...

In our latest episode, we talk Cörk Børd with creator @paulbaldowski.bsky.social (KS launches TODAY), PLUS Diablo, Jade Streets, DIE, and a great review! share.transistor.fm/s/710326d9

This is incredibly sad news to hear that Bud of @budsrpgreview.bsky.social has passed away. To play test his games and have the honour of having him review my game. I feel lucky to have known him. Condolences to his family. He will be missed.

Arghhhhhhh! Fucking @dropbox.com ! Changed computers, migrated my hard drive data smoothly, except NOW I have TWO Dropbox folders, one of which is not being synced, and the one that IS being synced is on some root level location that none of my apps can even see to save to!

I had a fine old natter with Matthew and Dave from @effektpodcast.org about Cörk Bord. I could have gone on and on... and ran over, as often arises, when you're having a great conversation. Expect the edited version soon! @kickstarter.com #CörkBord #MörkBorg www.kickstarter.com/projects/all...

An excellent review of #TalesOfTheOldWest! Particularly considering that three of the four reviewers HATE the #YearZeroEngine www.youtube.com/live/qoqDzJK...

OK! It’s late! Three days late, but it’s here. Matthew was in Sweden, but he brought back a special treat for this episode, an audio tour of #Vaesen ‘s Uppsala, with friend of the show, patron and Uppsala resident Niclas. Plus #theOneRing and #LOTRRPG starter sets share.transistor.fm/s/88464f88

Celebrating #GenCon with a visit to the spiritual home of FreeLeague. Where it all started! The booth at the Bishops Arms, Gamlastan Stockholm. The first “boardroom” of Fria Ligan and where we first interviewed them.

Co-host Matthew is in Uppsala, getting a Vaesen tour from Patron and local Niclas (very small in the centre if this picture).

“To distinguish our REAL art form from a bunch of bloops and bleeps on the Internet” @kennethhite.bsky.social 🤣💯👍

This one from the @effektpodcast.org is really getting me excited for running a campaign / season of games from Sep onwards. Bringing back memories of reading Lonesome Dove and other great westerns. And the more I read it, the more I am thinking it is the best implementation of Year Zero Engine.

Our latest podcast is out, in a return to our Coriolis Effect origins as once more, we look at prayer, pushing and Darkness Points in the Third Horizon. Also we talk about a big error we made in Tales of the Old West, plus crowdfunding, factories, lawyers, and games share.transistor.fm/s/049d56d9
