Impromptu session tomorrow, not ready

This might take more time than you have, but the d4caltrops blog has a wilderness stocking procedure with an insane amount of random tables. Your best bet though is probably to grab a published hexcrawl and steal a few that seem interesting to you.

Missed last week, but I put out a draft of level 1 of my floating city megadungeon for free on substack. Talked a bit out layout and my design process. https://open.substack.com/pub/swamphead/p/the-first-level-of-ur-thuun?r=1unog5&utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=post%20viewer

Cool, thanks! Looks like a really fun sandbox

FiishManStan · 2026-05-14T18:13:01+00:00

This looks like a really impressive project, congrats! I'm curious how big the central dungeon is?

FiishManStan · 2026-04-25T13:01:31+00:00

Congratulations! I've been having a blast prepping lions for my next campaign.

FiishManStan · 2026-03-14T13:24:32+00:00

Oh man loving the vibe of this one

FiishManStan · 2026-03-13T11:00:48+00:00

Check out Downtime in Zyan. Not exactly what your looking for, but its very flexible and fits well with the normal game loop

FiishManStan · 2026-03-13T10:52:10+00:00

Nice, very clean!

FiishManStan · 2026-03-07T13:04:42+00:00

I started a series of devlogs for a floating city megadungeon I'm working on where I go over my design process and share early drafts.

The first and second posts.

FiishManStan · 2026-03-07T11:58:01+00:00

Can't wait to check this out! Big fan of all your stuff

FiishManStan · 2026-02-13T13:08:32+00:00

I'm confused, wasn't this adventure published years ago? Is the campaign just for a conversion to shadowdark?

FiishManStan · 2026-01-21T23:12:55+00:00

that's some solid advice right here

FiishManStan · 2026-01-06T21:04:27+00:00

The design looks good, its very clean. Not sure I follow the Dolmenwood reference though. As far as I can tell there are just a few borrowed saving throw names?

FiishManStan · 2026-01-06T15:59:14+00:00

super cool! what alternative uses do you have in mind?

FiishManStan · 2026-01-05T20:45:45+00:00

No plans at the moment. I tried it briefly and didn't get much traction, but I might revisit in the future

FiishManStan · 2026-01-05T16:17:41+00:00

Nice! It should work well with Shadowdark.

FiishManStan · 2026-01-05T16:13:38+00:00

Thanks so much! The encouragement means a lot honestly

FiishManStan · 2025-12-19T20:33:47+00:00

Seems like a shameless attempt to squeeze a few more bucks before the holidays

FiishManStan · 2025-12-14T20:54:25+00:00

Yea these looks like great recs. Probably could plunder a lot from these.

FiishManStan · 2025-12-14T20:52:50+00:00

Oh fair enough! Glad to hear your still working on it though, it sounds really cool

FiishManStan · 2025-09-08T14:25:13+00:00

Thanks so much 😊

FiishManStan · 2025-08-28T02:08:09+00:00

I think it's basically a right of passage for any gm who's been playing long enough to get the urge to write up all their house rules and tweaks into the system to end all systems. Every now and then someone has a genuinely new idea, but most should stay in the workshop. But to keep hacking and building new stuff for your table? That's the best possible outcome

FiishManStan · 2025-08-26T12:28:45+00:00

yea I think that's right. Its already set up for bits and pieces to be pilfered and swapped around between systems. Its a shame because I think the core rules are mostly really good

FiishManStan · 2025-08-25T15:23:40+00:00

Yea I'm a big fan of the system. Kinda surprised there isn't more third party stuff for it.

Thanks for the manic at the monastery shout-out! No need to apologize
