The development continues! #tabletopgamedesign #ttrpg #gamedesign #gamedesign

Without doubt one of the greatest game pieces ever @paverson.bsky.social, and yes, I did end up with it. Live Luthier, going right next to Distilled. Great UKGE buy! #boardgame #tabletopgames

Well, tomorrow is the day, UKGE starts! Looking forward to it (even though I can only go for 1 day)! Looking forward to seeing you all there! #tabletop #tabletopgaming #ukge #boardgame #ttrpg #rpg

Very excited to now be a part of @chaosium.bsky.social's Cult if Chaos! Time to bring some chaos of my own to the table! And only days to UKGE! #ttrpg #callofcthulhu #rpg #chaosium #cultofchaos #pendragon #rol #ukge

My poor greyhound, Benny, has been at the vets all day to have 7 of his teeth removed...now he's home having chicken and feeling a little sorry for himself!

Coming together nicely - working out the finer points of the quickstart pack and going through the main core rulebook so they can be available reasonably close together. Thanks to @modiphius.bsky.social for their world building community content program! #ttrpg #tabletop #rpg #pirates #baordgames

I've been told I don't advertise myself enough. Which to be fair is true. Here is my RPG I've been developing. Brethren of the Coast, a pirate themed RPG set in the golden age of piracy! Quickstart pack nearly ready, core rulebook a little bit less than ready lol. #ttrpg #role-playing #rpg

Loved this show #90s #TV

Ok. Game stuff. I landed a dream gig. Literally. The “drop whatever you’re doing now, son” kind. Sadly I won’t be able to talk about it for at least a year. So instead I can only tease. I love teasing.

I still can't get through 12 Days of Christine from Inside No 9 without tearing up. @sjpemberton.bsky.social and @reece-shearsmith.bsky.social and all the cast were amazing.

When I complain about overdevelopment in games its almost always due to stuff like this Adding complexity and cruft to mitigate "feel bad" moments that themselves are just dogmatically accepted as "must avoid" Most of the best, most enduring games have "feel bad" moments It's a feature, not a bug

Excited for tomorrow, we are starting an Eldritch Horror League, the challenge of cooperative and personal achievement! Plus my number 1 favourite game for the last 11 or so years. Thanks @psycorey.bsky.social, @valancedbreakfast.bsky.social and everyone else involved for a great game! Wish us luck

Happy start of winter day everybody in the Northern hemisphere. And happy start of summer day to everyone in the southern hemisphere!

That's another game sent out, fingers crossed they like it! #gamedesign #boardgamedesign #tabletopgames #boardgames

It's about that time of year where I watch an episode or two a day of tabletop on the run upto Xmas. It's my version of an advent calendar! Thanks wil wheaton and @feliciaday.bsky.social and everyone else for the great work you did back then! youtu.be/X9QtdiRJYro?... #boardgames #tabletop

My love for stone age has never dwindled over the years. #boardgames #tabletopgames #tabletop #tabletopgaming

GMT Talk Episode 10 is now live! This time, Rachel, Luke, and Gene chat with Mark Herman about the Civil War Heritage Series, the Great Statesmen Series, Defiance, Thunderbolt, Wargames According to Mark, and more. We hope you enjoy!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqCE...

In Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, a spaceship explodes killing everyone on board because the engineer who was supposed to fix it, rather than checking his work, uses a device called an Electric Monk to reassure him that it's fine. That's ChatGPT that is.

Tomorrow is game night, its going to be Unfathomable! I'm terrible at being the traitor and human, @psycorey.bsky.social there's a built in superpower secret card ibca use right? Right??

A game project is getting close to being ready to send to publisher. I just need to channel the spirits of my favourite game designers for the last few bits on it...so if any designers out there feel a weird pull on their brain, it's just me! #boardgamedesign #gamedesign #tabletopgames #tabletop

A small cornucopia of games lined up for later today, after work...

For big monsters and PCs, that is up to the GM and something we will he addressing in our upcoming FAQ. Basically, the GM should have the flexibility to eliminate the monster if the fight is over, and otherwise inflict an injury (always this for PCs).

@samgregorstewart.bsky.social played the Arkham Horror RPG and fun was had, but there's a question. What happens when a character/monster has taken all damage (so no dice pool left), but before they get to strain themselves (to tale an injury and clear it all ofd) they take more damage?
