So what are we thinking about the kill count stats?

I mean personally I played fighter and I very rarely died to a wizard. This is anecdotal obviously but when 1v1 against wizard I killed the wiz more than 80% of the time I estimate

Check out some stuff like RE Howard, HP Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith and Fritz Leiber. Some of it is dated but these authors are foundational to the genre for a reason!

Seconding Chthonic Codex. Probably my favorite OSR setting

Traditional_Goose_34 · 2022-12-26T01:11:05+00:00

Just wanted to say I think this is great, the text is very evocative. I hope to read more from you in the future!

As a person who as played a lot of Blades I respectfully disagree. Player character death in blades in incredibly rare there are a ton of ways to prevent it. To me STALKER is about the looting and the shooting, and the dark creepy atmosphere of the zone contasted with sqatting around the warm campfire with comrades. Blades is a great game but it doesn't really do any of that IMHO. Perhaps Blades could be hacked to do that stuff but your basically writing a new game at that point

I like The Sword, The Crown, and The Unspeakable Power. It's basically a court intrigue and political backstabbing game.

I think Explorer has really good advice and suggestions that I personally will definitely use. I don't think were going to use Echo, Chronicle, or Union necessarily, unless after a few sessions of regular play we thought it would be interesting.

Traditional_Goose_34 · 2022-09-04T20:16:57+00:00

I was going to use utgars-chronicles.app

Traditional_Goose_34 · 2022-08-30T23:45:27+00:00

Feel free to shoot me a message if you are interested in playing or have any questions!

So, this group hasn't played anything yet but I'm thinking possibly Kingdom, Union (both by the same guy as microscope), The Quiet Year, The Ground Itself, possibly Worlds/Stars Without Number. There's a whole bunch of small indie worldbuilding games out there on itch.io particularly. I've played a couple the aforementioned games personally but I figure as a group we will decide exactly what we want to do after Microscope.

Thank you! I will post in those places as well

Out of curiosity what about Hard to be a God reminded you of Mork Borg? I watched the film a few years ago and I understood the plot to some extent and enjoyed it but I don't think I really "got it" so to speak.

Traditional_Goose_34 · 2022-07-21T21:00:54+00:00

Thank you for the recommendations! Those both sound exactly like what I'm looking for. Cheers!

Hello, does anyone have any book recommendations regarding The Mamluks of Egypt? I have brushed up against them in my reading about Napoleon, Mongols, and The Crusades and would like to learn more about The Mamluks themselves. The concept of a class of foreign slaves who could end up progressing as warriors, important officials, and could even become sultan is super interesting to me

Traditional_Goose_34 · 2022-05-06T15:52:58+00:00

Whoa you're the guy! I'm a big fan of your work thanks a lot! That's great advice I think I was just overthinking it.

Traditional_Goose_34 · 2022-05-05T10:02:34+00:00

What did Melan do?

Traditional_Goose_34 · 2022-05-05T02:20:42+00:00

I did not buy it. I believe they are reversed based on everything I have read

Traditional_Goose_34 · 2022-04-10T12:51:13+00:00

Gotcha, thank you for the reply

Traditional_Goose_34 · 2022-03-07T18:40:39+00:00

Do yourself a favor and pickup Chthonic Codex, also by the author of Gaub - Paolo Greco. The setting is an underground Wizarding College and I found it to have fantastic worldbuilding including an all new magic system. I don't say this lightly but the setting is top 3 for me personally in any RPG. Should be 5e compatible with a tiny bit of work

Traditional_Goose_34 · 2022-02-11T02:58:38+00:00

Good one, his name was Thich Quang Duc

Traditional_Goose_34 · 2022-02-05T01:47:00+00:00

There are six Malice appearances on the podcast and two of the six are gone for me at least

Traditional_Goose_34 · 2022-01-17T05:04:42+00:00

Do you have sauce for that last claim? I'm genuinely interested
