The next potential adventure is slowly forming out of the tropical elemental mists. Will it gather enough mana to achieve solidity? Or will it disperse and drift elsewhere? 👁️ 👁️

Crap. And just like that... I'm a Wordpress developer... again. <sigh> Just when I thought I was out...

Been working on the Firefly freighter #battlemap for #FoundryVTT again. Finally getting to building out the bridge. Made w/Dungeondraft and assets from @forgotten-adventures.net and Hellscape.

The next time I play myself in an end-world game I've got my character portrait and VTT token ready. 🙂 Fun with HeroForge...

Built my first Compendium for #FoundryVTT this morning. It was easier than I thought. Now to see if my buddy can install & use it on his Foundry rig.

Working on the new #GURPS Wardlands Campaign set in the world of Ehrto. Today I'm designing and building out the campaign Timeline at #Worldanvil. Set at the edge of "civilized" lands, this campaign will feature more Action and Monsters than my other ongoing games. I'm enjoying the darker mood. 🖤

I'm staring to use #FoundryVTT as a #Worldbuilding tool as much as a virtual tabletop these days. With macros that generate random dates/names, calculate date offsets, quickly search for #GURPS defaults, & the like - I'm routinely finding new ways to use this tool. I'm even building maps in Foundry!

Oh, the horror and pain of wasting your critical success on a Cooking roll! 😆 #GURPS

What was Los Angeles like pre-freeway? 🚙🚕🚗 Recently digitized, a detailed hand-drawn created by "the only woman map publisher in the country" lets us time-travel to 1927, before the widespread adoption of automobiles: gty.art/4kvZs1l

Making & organizing Macros in #FoundryVTT this morning to make running my #GURPS games more efficient. Also made some minor adjustments to the formatting of number labels on the Hotbar via custom CSS.

Recently asked for advice across my social media & out of 1000s of views, I got 2 replies. While I appreciated those 2 replies, they didn't help. After 2 days I asked ChatGPT and got good answers with examples in under 60 seconds. Why do I use AI? Because it doesn't ignore me & is usually helpful.

Massive congratulations to Tracy & Laura Hickman on the release of SKYRAIDERS! 🥳 The game is JUST BEAUTIFUL 😍 (and powered by World Anvil)!

Working to build a Player Primer for my game world & trying to define base requirements for what to include. Goal: have enough info to build a character & share a basic intro. Anyone have an example of a simple Player Primer or checklist of the min requirements for this? #TTRPG #GURPS #Worldbuilding

I made dis! 🙌✨

Happy office mate.

One of our #GURPS games is more about politics, intrigue, mysteries, & exploration. There's a castle, followers, retainers, & businesses. It involves a fair bit of accounting & commercial RP. Tracking that stuff can be a challenge. Using #FoundryVTT inventory sheets & loot journals works well.

I think the new approach to dealing with shadows is going to work well. But it will require that I make some changes to how I build battlemaps to make it more efficient. Here's prototypes/WIP of the Eastwatch #battlemap. Made w/ #Dungeondraft & assets by @forgotten-adventures.net .

Back to working on the Eastwatch #battlemap today. Getting ready to try a new approach to dealing with trees and shadows. If the results don't suck, I'll share more this evening. WIP. Made w/ #Dungeondraft & assets by @forgotten-adventures.net.

My long-time server provider #Liquidweb has rug-pulled their phone support without notice. I wondered why until I bullied my way past sales. Pretty sure the old folks were shit-canned. Guy I talked to was clueless and "new" to Liquid Web. #outsourced

Lighting design & wall/door definition for the Firefly Keep #battlemap in #FoundryVTT. Next up is building the smart tiles for stairs & travel between levels. The tower is 5 levels above & 2 below ground. Over 50k sq ft of space. This is a major setting for one of my stories.

Picked up this Humble Bundle & filled in the gaps in my Profantasy CC3+ collection - mostly for the Cartographer's Annuals. I only had a few of the annuals & at $40 each would have been pricey to pick them all up. The bundle has all but the 2 most recent. It's a great deal if you are into mapping.
