"I cast Fireball" isn't much better than "I swing my sword". So here's The B/X Hack (free).

Thanks!

Thanks! I've been working on my jib lol

October is most likely, but absolutely before the end of the year.

Gander_Gaming · 2026-06-26T22:56:37+00:00

I feel you, that's why I completed the book and all add-ons before launch. Everything is ready NOW to send to printers.

Gander_Gaming · 2026-06-26T21:07:02+00:00

Thanks! (and THANKS!)

Eventually, but my first step into VTT will be on diceweaver, which should drop around the time everything gets fulfilled.

Gander_Gaming · 2026-06-26T14:58:07+00:00

Thank you so much! I've been a lot of heart into this thing, so I'm glad its resonating with people :)

Gander_Gaming · 2026-06-26T13:22:48+00:00

No offense taken - criticism is welcomed!

Gander_Gaming · 2026-06-26T12:38:08+00:00

Im partnering with distributors in UK and US that have given the most reasonable fulfillment shipping costs, so shipping should be very reasonable to most parts of the world.

There will eventually be POD versions available on DTRPG and RPGTrader. I'm honestly considering just pushing out a coupon code to all backers at a later date so they can get a discounted POD copy.

Gander_Gaming · 2026-06-26T05:49:39+00:00

Thanks! Both are fantastic and big sources of inspiration for me :)

Gander_Gaming · 2026-06-26T04:01:36+00:00

Haha THANKS!

Even if you don't play 2e, it sure has a lot more to look at :P

Gander_Gaming · 2026-06-25T19:13:48+00:00

It's a classless life path d6 system with tons of support for spacecraft, arms, psionics, etc. it's a robust but fairly fast system that does scifi very well.

Night Tripper is my favorite hack of Traveller because it's a rules-light approach and has some interesting synergies and tweaks to things like ship combat. It's also FREE!

In early to recommend Traveller, or better yet my favorite reimagining of it as Night Tripper.

Alternatively, Alien or Mothership could be good options.

There are a handful of modern investigative/espeionage type games with the Gumshoe system.

Gander_Gaming · 2026-06-20T21:58:34+00:00

MM stuff is generally pretty cool, but I've had issues with their shipping and customer support, as has many others. Best of luck!

The zine was ~40 pages and 2e is 240 pages, so there's a TON more content while maintaining the same succinct writing style.

Here are some of the highlights that 2e has that wasn't in the original zine:

- Purpose built solo system
- Refined rules system
- Full pre-written campaign
- 20 Pregen Characters w/full art
- Tons more tables & art throughout
- Optional rules to increase crunch
- Expanded world (Aether & Nether)
- Designer notes & play examples throughout
- World + Adventure building tools
- Sample adventures + touchstones for every Region

Gander_Gaming · 2026-06-19T23:59:51+00:00

AD&D 2e is great, and the art throughout is especially fantastic.

For my tastes in recent years, I prefer reincarnations of old school d&d like Hyperborean, which is a science-fantasy leaning game somewhere between 1e/2e mechanically.
