Played 5 turns of Marc Miller's Verdun game, made significant gains as the Germans but took some devastating losses in the last round of attacks. We meticulously saved the game state, so the winner remains to be decided

Much to consider

Doodled a bunch of OD&D NPCs to drop in when the encounter table calls for a "Myrmidon" or whatever

Issue 3 of The Dispatch for #Over/Under. Taking the weekend off to do other things was no doubt necessary, but I can't help but feel like we missed A LOT of goings-on. @idraluna-archives.bsky.social

Six years ago, I wrote most of the Tragedian dialogue for Pathologic 2 in iambic pentameter. I'm back now doing the same for Pathologic 3. I figured it was helpful to write a guide on *how* I did it – in case I get hit by a bus and the team has to carry on without me. azhdarchid.com/so-you-want-...

You have chosen war with Dagoth Ur. We grieve for your loss, but we will not spare you. You refused the sweetness of Lord Dagoth's friendship. Now know the bitterness of his fury.

Continuing my ill-advised project to key a hexmap of Middle-earth, I present Michel Delving and it's surrounding hexes

people suggest blogs and yo for rpg ideas, world building/lore inspo when honestly the best stuff you'll find is stuff like a pdf scan of an essay from the 70s titled "Lip-Blown Instruments of Ireland Before The Norman Invasion"

Started a daily writing exercise where I key one (1) 12-mile hex of Middle-earth. Here are seven from the last week.

adding mine as well! eviltables.com/2025/06/08/p...

Redux of an old post of mine that was borderline unreadable, but which had a nugget of wisdom worth salvaging. There are two totally different types of hexcrawl and nobody else seems to have pointed this out before. knightattheopera.blogspot.com/2025/09/how-...

For the bandwagon: my overall Appendix N list: idraluna-archives.bearblog.dev/appendix-n/

I wrote about AD&D's assumption that characters with strongholds "will desire mazelike dungeons" beneath them. Retired adventurers, in their boredom, long for the dungeon! By constructing such dungeons of their own, they perpetuate the cycle of ruination upon which adventuring careers are built.

Decided I wanted another daily writing project in the vein of Dungeon 23 (which I used to create my forthcoming HIS MAJESTY THE WORM dungeon). Started putting this together using @idraluna-archives.bsky.social's Middle-earth map. My goal: One Middle-earth hex per day.

I think you should be encouraging trpg players to hack your game. treating your rules like they're perfect arcane scripture that will come crumbling down if someone ignores a rule they think is bogus makes you look like you don't trust your audience and also think much too highly of your intellect.

hey @idraluna-archives.bsky.social I want you to know because of your hex map of california I decided to stop procrastinating on a fallout ttrpg adaptation I have been wanting to do for years. You are the goat of hex maps.
