Und noch etwas, was ich mit zur NordCon HH mitnehmen werde. Gestern ist nämlich noch dieses Aquarell fertig geworden. Vielleicht findet sich ja jemand, der es adoptieren möchte. Drückt mal die Daumen 🙏🏻

Eine taktische Karte einer Kirche entsteht für meine lieben Unterstützer/innen auf Patreon. Jeden Monat gibt es eine neue Karte in Farbe für die heimische Tischrunde. Mittlerweile habe ich einen ganzen Ordner voll 🙈

Heute neu erstandene Schätze. Vermute mal, dass man die bald nicht mehr bekommt. #pnpde #dnd

Saturday morning, it's time to finally watch the #inkarnaterpg 2.0 tutorial. #ttrpg #mapmaking

Another map style for Kaung Pi. Not what I planned to do tonight, but then I got sucked into this and it was too much fun. #dnd #ttrpg #fantasymaps

Wer mal sehen möchte, wie ein Pundu (eine der neuen D&D spezies von Kaung Pi) von der talentierten @feytiane.bsky.social gezeichnet wird, das passiert hier auf Twitch (nach den Eulenbären) m.twitch.tv/videos/27656... Schaut doch mal vorbei. #pnpde #dnd #fantasyart

Received some feedback on the Boyopur map - and wanted to do a few things anyway. Major change is that I adde some texture to the background and tried to add more depth to the terrain (including the stream). #ttrpg #dnd #fantasymap

Boyopur, where all adventures in Kaung Pi start. Experiment with a new maps style, hand-drawn terrain. Feedback always welcome. #ttrpg #fantasymap #dnd

I just wanted to share that a first review of Ahu's First Patrol came back and the reader/player liked it. This is a good day. If you put so much effort into e project you really hope that people like it, but you only find out - when you find out. Happy day. #ttrpg #dnd #gamebook

I'm using inkarnate to make my maps, but as I did a bit of drawing last year and right now want to use a style which has a bit of an #OSR flair, am experimenting with lines and shading to model terrain. Also, want to move more to bw maps (due to printing cost and - again - OSR flair). WDYT? #ttrpg

How would you feel about choosing one of the following backgrounds: * Sigil Smith (does ritual tattoos & brandings) * Spirit touched (you saw things that others didn't) * Honey hunter (large bees, can only be found in the mountains, best honey in the world) Kaung Pi: Adventurer's Guide #ttrpg #dnd

Aloha! Hier kommt nochmal ein Schwung Originale (in A4, mit Zertifikat, die ich zum Kauf anbiete. Preise stehen oben auf dem jeweiligen Bild. Zuzüglich Versand! Nicht wundern: die Bilder sind in Folie verpackt. Deshalb schimmert das so an einigen Stellen. Die Originale haben keine Flecken!

Waiting for the reviews of Ahu's First Patrol to come back. Should I have taken a break? Maybe. But it's more fun starting to work on Kaung Pi: Adventurer's Guide. Species, subclasses, backgrounds, world intro, spells. All the good stuff. #dnd #ttrpg

Our usual session didn’t happen today because one player couldn’t make it. Since everyone was excited to play, I semi-improvised a second one-shot in Kaung Pi. The players wanted to know how the traveling merchant, who turned undead in the first session, had died, and that mystery was solved. #dnd

New "official" map of Kaung Pi. Only small adjustments: * no (normal) forests in the south, too cold there * a few roads and rivers added As download available from www.marteloschwarz.com/uoru/downloads #ttrpg #dnd #fantasymap

Big milestone for Ahu’s First Patrol: external review has started. After weeks of playtesting, proofreading every section, improving layout, updating the map, and beginning work on 10 stretch-goal illustrations, the book is now in the hands of 9 volunteer reviewers. #ttrpg #gamebook

Final count: 100 backers. Late pledges are still open, but I won't complain if it stays that way. Nice, round number. www.kickstarter.com/projects/mar... #ttrpg #dnd #gamebook

Full self-review of Ahu's First Patrol is done. Phew. Now, a bit of cleanup of character sheet and the map and then the external review can begin. Hope that they like what I wrote over the course of the last year. #ttrpg #dnd #gamebook

Since the kickstarter finish, I fell a bit silent on the social media front. Reason is simply that I want to finish the gamebook. Reviewing, playtesting, but also sharpening the whole setting to avoid inconsistencies for the upcoming books. #ttrpg

Now at 99 backers. Is anyone up for 100? www.kickstarter.com/projects/mar... #ttrpg #gamebook #dnd

Using the long weekend to think more about historical references for Uoru, my Asian inspired #ttrpg setting. The best reference is probably the kingdom of Majapahit that stretched over large parts of south-east Asia from the 13th to 16th century. Cultural advisor gave me this book. #indonesia #DnD

Hallo ihr Lieben! Hab von der letzten Con noch Sticker Packs übrig: Standard 7€ und mit Effekt 9€ zuzüglich Versand. Auf dem Bild sieht man, welche Motive drin ist. Meldet euch gerne, wenn ihr welche haben möchtet.

Deep in playtesting and balancing Ahu's First Patrol. This is hard, which makes me appreciate even more what folks like Joe Dever, Steve Jackson, and Ian Livingstone did at a time when the digital tooling of today was not available. #gamebooks

Late pledges are still possible, btw: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mar... #dnd

Looks like something I will support: CANDALA: A DARK FANTASY MANGA BORN FROM INDONESIAN MYTH, via @Kickstarter www.kickstarter.com/projects/too...

My very first crowdfunding project was a nice success. It was thrilling to the last hours, but the stretch goal was achieved and now I will focus on finishing the gamebook as promised. Again, thanks go out to all the supporters. #dnd #ttrpg #gamebook

Now 15 Euro away from achieving the stretch goal. 8 hours remaining...

Final 24 hours for the Ahu’s First Patrol Kickstarter. We’re also very close to the stretch goal that unlocks 10 additional interior illustrations. Last chance to back the project: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mar... #ttrpg #dnd #gamebook

Final 48 hours. Will we hit 2000 and achieve the stretch goal? 🤔 #dnd #gamebook

It's been a minute since I've released a wax seal, and I thought this art I did for Unlimited Realms' Path Of The Divine Howl would be a good fit! Wayfinders on Patreon can grab the art, a variant, and the wax seal in 3 colors here: bit.ly/mark-of-the-... #TTRPG #LARP #DnD

On this weeks Dungeon Delve, I highlight a bunch of great videos about ACTUAL dungeons and mind-blowing underground cities, caves, and tunnel systems. open.substack.com/pub/chaotica...

This weekend is all about playtesting Ahu's First Patrol. Keeping all the different branches and options aligned in my small brain is, well, challenging. Fun fact: sometimes I read a section (there are 350 of them) and am surprised myself. Link in pinned post, if interested. #ttrpg #dnd #gamebook

Vor Kurzem hatte ich das große Vergnügen, von @steamtinkerer.bsky.social in seinen Podcast eingeladen zu werden, wo ich über Ahu’s First Patrol sprechen durfte. Dabei konnte ich die ganze Geschichte erzählen–wie ich dazu gekommen bin, dieses Buch zu schreiben. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tA4U... #pnpde

Mit "Ahu's First Patrol möchte @marteloschwarz.bsky.social sein erstes Adventure Game Book - das in seinem von Asien inspiriertem Fantasy-Setting #KaungPi spielt - via Crowdfunding verwirklichen. Ich habe mit ihm ausführlich darüber in einem Videopodcast gesprochen. #pnpde youtu.be/tA4UhvxWRng

Filler candidates for the gamebook Ahu's First Patrol. Context is Asian-spiritual, but also gritty. What do you like best? #ttrpg #gamebook #dnd

An announcement about Death Bed: An Impenetrably Medieval Dungeon Game that was too big for character limit. TL;DR: It is coming out probably next week but it is going to be in alpha and very unfinished but it will be functionally playable and have a lot of cool features. #ttrpg #indiettrpgs #rpgs
