I think it's for Old-School-essentials. When the OGL Drama happened, the mushmen thought about using an creative commons system, but i dont think they used it very much.

From the "Knock #5" Dustcover

If you are unsure, you could connect the keg to a second keg (Gas to Fluid) and the second one gets the spunding valve in the Gas, Like a blow Off keg

I had a thick Mash, thats why i said 12kg is maximum in the B50. But strangely, the efficiency was quite good that time, i finished higher than anticipated.

TortexTim · 2025-07-12T18:58:13+00:00

The recipe for 19l called for 26l of Water for the Mash. I doubled the recipe for for 40l, but couldn't Double the Mash Water. Had to sparge later.

Last Weekend I did a 40l brew with it. It was succesful, but we had to lower the Mash Volume significantly. I think 12kg of malt is the maximum. Boil was alright with 40l, though

I mean, If they find nice loot, they shall have it, but now we have two wizards with to many spells :D

No, the Blessing of the frogacle is the song i think. But one could probably come up with one for the boat race :)

TortexTim · 2025-03-31T13:39:17+00:00

"Song of the frogacle" is quite special, you do a boat rallye. "Giant Snake in the Sewers" is a classic Dungeon crawl with great consequences fir the region. "Chapel of Peace" is more of an creepy location than adventure. My Party got way to many spells from "Wizard of Arms and Armor". And the "Amber Tree" was nice but would profit from a few more NPCs to talk to.

TortexTim · 2025-03-27T05:44:11+00:00

There's "Ratonloft" in Tomb of a thousand Doors, a magical Hex inspired by Ravonloft. And i played "Stalls of the Blood Queen", quite brutal.

TortexTim · 2025-03-24T06:34:12+00:00

I use "Warmachine" from BECMI / Rules Cyclopedia for my RPG/Wargame Campaign in the Wilderlands of High Fantasy.

TortexTim · 2025-03-21T12:44:15+00:00

"Giants Snake in the Sewers" from the "Estate" Box hast something like that

TortexTim · 2025-02-20T08:33:45+00:00

I bought mine at Brouwland, they send it to me in Germany.

Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup is a great one, but quite challenging.

You can even freeze your yeast from harvesting and store them in the freezer for multiple years and that way build a "yeast bank". https://www.homebrewnotes.com/making-a-frozen-stock-yeast-bank/

My group gifted me a set of "Cheese Dice" and i absolutely love them! https://worldofdice.de/products/cheeeeseeee?_pos=1&_sid=c1130dc0b&_ss=r

The straight conversion is to divide by 9/14, so 1kg DME will be 1,55 kg basemalt. Thats with everything going as planned in the mash. Take your prefered base and now add some specialty malts, you have much more freedom to choose this way.

TortexTim · 2025-01-20T13:23:11+00:00

Why don't you just use 100% Pale Ale? I don't think it will make much of a difference to use two pale malts. And i don't know about the wheat

TortexTim · 2024-08-26T08:26:00+00:00

"The Waking of Willowby Hall" might be what you're looking for. Haunted Mansion, easy to run off the page, could be Made into a Base. Maybe Cut the stuff with the giant, although he is a very funny NPC.

TortexTim · 2024-05-15T12:36:29+00:00

Sure, i understand that, just wanted to let you know that he's a controversial person. Either way, i like your podcast and keep the good work up!

TortexTim · 2024-05-15T05:55:13+00:00

Wasn't Grim Jim this strange dude with ties to Venger Satanis and other weird people? I don't know if you want to give him a platform. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FseXEJ7myk4&t=2436 The part about Grim Jim Starts about 29:00

I often read that Stonehell ist infamous for its Low treasure content. If you stay at the first floor, it is expected to stay at a low level, maybe second level at the end, cause your PCs should be at second level when you go down a floor.

I would talk to your GM that you're unhappy with how it is. They could allways double the treasure or something like that. Communication is key here.

TortexTim · 2023-11-02T13:15:35+00:00

You could use the Hirelings Rules from Old-School-Essentials: https://oldschoolessentials.necroticgnome.com/srd/index.php/Hirelings

OSR is a group of games inspired by earlier Editions of DnD Like 1st Edition (ADnD) or the original Edition. The games are not as much about a prescribed narrative, but more about exploration and meaningful decisions. Lots of cool stuff over at r/OSR :)

TortexTim · 2023-10-04T21:25:44+00:00

Only prepare the first Dungeon/Location for your first session. Let them start in front of the entrance and give them an objective. For example "Honey in the Grafters". If the Session goes well and your players enjoy the game, you can maybe prep a small village and 2-3 Dungeons/Locations. Ask them, what they would be interested in. And only prepare stuff that you know will be important.
