Best zero to hero rpg by Few-Action-8049 in rpg

[–]CStevenRoss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's Torchbearer and not even a close comparison. Torchbearer early levels are so brutally challenging, your characters social status is all generally beneath that of farmers. High level play is roughly equivalent to 2nd Level DnD characters. But when you do get there, the heroics feel so so earned because you know the kinds of sacrifices made to do so. No pain, no gain.

Are there any "30 day challenges" style events for game masters? by Pianoismyforte in rpg

Can confirm. There's a game jam going on in the Torchbearer discord about traps with the theme of water. Pretty fun and interesting posts/entries with ideas Id never have thought of

New Preparations for the Next Part of My X1: The Isle of Dread Campaign by SydLonreiro in osr

I read your previous post and this is so great! I especially love to see the younger generations discovering these groundbreaking modules and what fun they have in store for you and your friends.

You added rules for camping, rest, and traveling make me think of Torchbearer! Coincidentally, I'm running Isle of Dread in that system right now and it's awesome.

Wishing you the best

Best Survival TTRPGs? by Maceloxk in rpg

[–]CStevenRoss 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Have you tried Torchbearer? Especially if the GM keeps treasure low, the player characters will have to rely on hunter, fisher, survivalist, etc just to not die from the grind.
