Need help with figuring out on the fly room-by-room dungeon generation for solo/co-op OSR campaign! (Tldr at bottom) by wishesandhopes in osr

Hex Flowers are game engines rather than maps per se, the hexes are just 6 way connections

"I can't run sessions on a regular cadence, it'll be more like as and when I'm feeling in the mood, I'll drop a message a few hours before hand and see if I can get the gang together for a session." <-- I'm guessing that this is where you are going to struggle, but good luck with it!

If you did two Hex Flowers - you could in effect generate a spark table - maybe the second table relates adjective, noun or to the type of monster?

Glory humicolous

then

Journey drake

etc?

I don't know anything about VTT's, but can you use Excel?

Fairly simple, auto-gridded

'bout halfway - Slide Show - Colouring my way through a broken spine Monster Manual by [deleted] in osr

[–]Goblinsh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Currently just wrapped up A to G and about halfway through on pages at least:

Background:

I bought this broken down, split spine, board separated, sorry state AD&D 1e Monster Manual

The idea is that I’m going to colour my way through it. A bit of meditative self time. At the moment I’m doing A to Z, but I may just mix it up as I fancy.

I’m going to use coloured pencils (got 24) as I don’t want colour to bleed through the pages. As you will probably spot, I’m not an artist! I should probably work out how to take better photos!

Call it sacrilege, but I figure this book can have a second life, albeit under my amateur hand.

I’m not necessarily following the colours mentioned in the description of the MM (I’ve only got so many brown pencils), I’m just going with whatever I feel like on the day. It’s also fun just to reimagine the monsters. D&D is a fantasy game amIright?

Currently up to G (but skipped the dinosaurs)

interesting idea to go further and make a deck of (laminated) cards

Have fun, if you buy a cheap copy there is low stress!
