An Infinity of Ships by @adamstation.bsky.social is one of the most fun & clever books of tables i've ever read, and seeing Adam is putting together another book of system-agnostic resources is SO exciting, you very much don't want to miss this if you like strange & wonderful NPCs + inspo tables!!

before i fill out a whole StartPlaying profile or similar—if i were to offer paid/pro-GMing (for, say, Mothership especially, maybe PLANET FIST, maybe Shadowrun 5e) would anyone out there be interested? alternatively, would you be interested if there were other systems on offer?

THE DRAGONKID11 INTRO IS HERE HELLPIERCERS IS REALLLLLLLLL

On guard! cannibalhalflinggaming.com/2022/08/01/i...

you can hear that game below if you want to check it out! IHtHG doesn't *have* to be that kind of intense—i've seen a game that was elementary schoolers bickering in the hallway before trying out for the solo part in a school play—but it can be, and i have SUCH fondness for ruben & i's game

if you've ever heard me pitch I Have the High Ground in person, you've heard me recount the finale of this session on @theneoncaster.bsky.social's stream, in which i won & my victory was getting shot thru the heart & dying instantly b/c ruben's character cried over my body so i had the moral victory

I played this with Jess when it first released and it facilitated the most emotionally intense session of roleplay I've ever felt. it was heartbreaking and great. Highly recommendddd

I Have the High Ground is celebrating a 3rd anniversary!! This was the first game we played when I got the host position at One Shot. @captainkrail.bsky.social and I have played it on the floor of an amtrak. It's SUCH a frequent go-to for me. PLEASE check it out during the sale!!

Indeed, and it was a delight to feature! You can watch our session of I Have the High Ground here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBf2...

This game RULES and you should absolutely buy it. Save 33% on it right now or just wait a few days and buy it at full price. It's 100% worth it.

WOW!!! i cannot believe it has been THREE YEARS since the release of I Have the High Ground. that's wild. i've been doing this for over 3 years???? truly hasn't sunk in that it's been that long. regardless, if you're interested in the game, now is a great time to get it on a steep discount!!!

ANNOUNCING: The "I Have 3 High Grounds" sale! ⚔️ To celebrate the 3rd anniversary of the release of this IPR-bestselling TTRPG 🎲 of banter, posturing, and cape by @jessfrom.online, get 33% off the game for just the next 3 days. 🎧 it played ⬇️🧵 & see the itch page for more! 🔗: itch.io/s/157807/i-h...
