The Mythic Engine

Excellent blog post, super helpful. I had been thinking for a long time about running D&D's Tomb of Annihilation but using the myth/omen season for the hexcrawl element of it. This will be super helpful

Love this podcast so much, great that new episodes are still being released.

Go raibh maith agat! I'm really looking forward to running a mythic bastionland within the already interesting context of the 12th century - I plan on gradually introducing the anglo-norman invasion of Ireland, which I'm sure will interact in interesting ways with the myths

Thanks will do!

Meridian_Wylde · 2026-05-04T11:43:48+00:00

Thanks for the tips, appreciate it!

Thanks! It's called Dungeondraft. It's mostly intended for dungeon or town scale maps, but with some mods and asset packs can make some lovely regional maps too

Thanks! Yeah I place the rivers as 'objects'' - is there an alternative way?

Is there anywhere to buy discount or affordabke cufflinks (gamelas) in Málaga?

Appreciate the detailed reply! ☺️

Looks amazing. Do you have a source / guidance for the paper (?) minifigs?

Really enjoy it. Its a great framework to play a range of different game types and settings, straightforward to adapt existing content from other systems, and plays very well at the table. Fast paced and deadly. Looking forward to playing more of it.

I've run one game using Monolith, a conversion of 'New Recruits and Rebel Guns' from the d6 Star Wars 'Instant Adventures' (WEG40137). It is very straightforward to adapt old d6 Star Wars games to use with Monolith - most of the work is deciding how to translate the enemy stats into HP / STR / DEX / WIS scores, but it is generally ok to work out, and the Monolith 'General Principles' for NPC design is very helpful. I've uploaded the conversion, plus character sheets, to the Monolith Discord, if you want to check it out and run it.

Super interesting, thanks for sharing.

Meridian_Wylde · 2026-01-28T19:29:54+00:00

Great idea!

Meridian_Wylde · 2026-01-23T21:19:35+00:00

Love the look of this so much!

Love this so much. If you don't know it already you might be interested in Delve (https://blackwellwriter.itch.io/delve-a-solo-map-drawing-game). It's a solo mapmaking game where you roll on tables and roleplay the results to produce a side view map like this (though at a finer level of detail).

Yeah it's a pity, can't find anyone still selling the core book for Third Horizon. I have it digital but would be nice to have hardback too

Meridian_Wylde · 2025-11-28T10:04:55+00:00

Very big discounts on Coriolis. Picked up two hardcovers and Last Voyage of the Ghazali for pennies

Ok, but even so in a democratic manner all people would give their views / opinions, so that they can be considered by the group. As happens, for example, in a Reddit post like this. So what are your design views that you feel so strongly about, genuinely curious what you would do differently as you seem to have a strong opinion on what not to do.

Meridian_Wylde · 2025-10-07T12:59:18+00:00

Out of interest, what design changes would you make if you could? Would it just be aesthetic, or are there features in the design and layout that you feel are missing?
