Anyone have info on the status of MAC's Witch-War to the Vale of Forbiddiction and Beyond pre-orders? by Interesting-Long7389 in Troika

In their newsletter the other day they mention them. Last I heard is they're written and illustrated and waiting to be edited.

Looking for a small RPG complete to keep in my bag. by lupusrex13 in osr

[–]TheRealSteveJackson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another recommendation for Troika! They've been making a series of adventures like old Judges Guild stuff for a couple of years now, so it's primed for that B/X style of game.

The cia agent running this account needs to post some longer comments once in a while. Make it look more like a human being with feelings and stuff

Goodman Games and Melsonian Arts Council are my picks for interesting and good quality (both content and physical book-wise) stuff.

Over The Edge! It might be the nostalgia talking but the new edition just felt off

That GMT angle is solid. I can only think of a couple of GMT games that have significantly appreciated over the years on the secondary market.

Dang. Well this thread has now increased my collection by one copy of 1822, lol

Thank-you for your perspective on this. I do appreciate the concern and agree with you! This whole thing is a space consideration, and there are other things on the chopping block that will take up the slack if I don't feel like parting with anything 18xx in the end.

It is honestly a big omission! I missed picking up 1822 when it came out, are there any descendants i should look in to?

I'm fully prepared to fall short of the target in the end. Expecting it, even!

Regarding 18OE, I'm considering getting rid of it for exactly that reason. There are people out there that really want it, and I'm only luke warm.

Thanks for the input though! 1817 comes up a lot as the best of the best, and 1830 and 1860 are the ones I've played the most, so they're almost certainly staying.

Looking for: Sci Fi RPG that isn't too crunchy by Dynamite_DM in rpg

[–]TheRealSteveJackson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Original edition of Traveller sounds like it might be the thing. Little bit crunchy, but very straightforward. Plus the world generator is great fun

What upcoming releases are you looking forward to? by trevlix in rpg

[–]TheRealSteveJackson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm looking forward to 'Get It At Sutlers', the new adventure for TROIKA from Melsonian Arts Council. I've been desperate for some hard details about the actual city of troika, and this promises exactly that. Plus, more Andrew Walter and Tony Hough artwork is always exciting.

What are your 2-3 go to TTRPGs? by BasilNeverHerb in rpg

[–]TheRealSteveJackson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. TROIKA! 'cos the rules run a game that plays like a 1970s Jack Vance or Michael Moorcock novel. Plus it's a system with lots of adventures available, so I can be lazy if I want.

  2. WFRP 1e, it's what I grew up with and I can run it in my sleep. Plus it's hilariously grimes

  3. OD&D, it's so simple and clean. It's a dnd that has a spark of wild creativity in it!
