My good friends over at Dunromin University Press have released a fantastic PWYW collection of OSR musings and posts. You should check it out, and maybe the rest of the Dunromin collection of OSR modules. www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5... dunrominuniversitypress.com

The Laundry: Man of the People is available now as a PDF! How do the always adaptable agents of the Laundry deal with a threat when their fieldwork clearances are revoked? That is for you to decide! Get the PDF now at cubicle7games.com

Do you not have headphones?

Draw Steel implies the existence of Ink Steel and Colour Steel.

Sweet! I bought the PDF but really want some cool physical copies!

One of the most gorgeous games I've come across in awhile is Vaults of Vaarn. I love these kind of settings born out of a creators' passion for an imagined place. Ultimately, they're some of my favorite things about roleplaying games. vaults-of-vaarn-second-edition.backerkit.com/hosted_preor...

Almost all of Classic Traveller for $16?

And your annual reminder to be kind to customer facing workers, be that in person, on the phone, or over Social Media. This can be a stressful time of year, but that person is trying to help you. Do be supportive, and work with them.

Sitting at the back of the theatre with my parents seeing Star Wars for the first time (1978). The balcony cut the very top off the screen, and my mother thought the ships were coming out from there and nearly shot out of her wheelchair.

Did not make it to #Dragonmeet today, sick and didn’t want to give everyone else the lurg. Hope everyone had fun. Share your con hauls and any cool news so I don’t miss anything!

Hey all, do I have any UK based concept artists following me (or who knows anyone) who would be up for a long term 22 month contract working on Dragonwilds at Jagex? Remote with a very occasional day in office in Cambridge. Development experience and fantasy genre work is a must. Mid level role.

As this horrible year draws to a close and my big plans of getting enough consultant/design gigs to replace my steady full time income haven’t really manifested I’m asking for a little help. I’ve got a couple of paid gigs I’m working on but if you’d like to contribute in some way see next message!

Tonight’s game of Mythic Bastionland…

We'll be open to RPG & wargame pitches @ Dragonmeet this Saturday! Find us on Tables E3 & E4 to meet our Publishing Director Phil Smith and pitch your game 🫵 If you can't make it to the show, you can always find our guidelines for email pitches here: bit.ly/4oiqta1

The Devil (and the bosses) work fast, but sometimes @chrisbratt.bsky.social works faster.

James Bond is part of the code name. When one dies or gets too old, an agent is promoted to 007, and gains the codename 'James Bond'. It's how we've had so many previous James Bonds who have looked different, and survived so many years. The villain in the next one can say "Thought you were dead".

Rockstar union workers have set up a solidarity fund to help them survive and fight after 30 of them were fired in an attempt to destroy the union. Help them fight back! If you can, any little bit you can donate will massively help their efforts. actionnetwork.org/fundraising/...

Seriously, give Jump Leads a listen. From the mind behind the excellent Game of Rassilon, it'll fill that Red Dwarf sized hole in your life.
