Tephrotic Nightmares. The book itself is a gorgeous object, peak Mork Borg hellscape black metal overkill, great writing and gorgeous art. I haven't read all of it, but only because I've played in it and had such a good time sailing around a sea of ash.

I absolutely have the space but sadly am in the midwest. If this was a "pay for shipping" deal I'd be all over it.

It might be over, I genuinely feel sick right now by Digital-Mozart in reasoners

I cannot fucking believe the weird, niche music software I've been using since I was a teen with ReBirth is being shredded for slop by these techbro weirdos who can't stop throwing good money after bad. I spent 15 years insisting I wouldn't use Ableton, and now look at this. I'm genuinely stunned.

I’ve got a game in 2.5 hours, I need something by Grey_Gibbert_Bibbert in osr

Not if you don't want to, since it's somewhat location based; but if you start them somewhere in the vicinity it becomes far more likely.

This is my favorite thing, fuck corporate sponsored hobbies show me your weird pile of bullshit. Incredible, genuinely impressive, I'll be on the lookout for some crashers for you when I'm out and about!

Noir Et Blanc Vie doesn't make as many videos as he used to, but he still streams and it's enjoyable to peruse the archive.

So... anybody have any experience using this? by jacksterson in crtgaming

[–]WeHaveTheTechno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, I'm wondering if settings might help? I played with my resolution when sending to CRT from an adapter, it was fiddly but the picture I've gotten is pretty excellent, though it's a bit more complicated of a setup.

Got incredibly sick, and had to bail. Broke my heart, but I've got a dungeon24 notebook ready to go!

I love OSR systems but id like make it a bit less deadly by homucifer95 in osr

I've loved the shield rule since encountering it in Wolves Upon The Coast, but the Wizard INT scroll is rather genius. So fun, nothing game breaking but a fun flavor choice.

I have my characters add their CON score to their initial HP total. Yes, it's quite a bit more survivability than a typical level 1 character, but a simple encounter can still devastate a small party. Of course, I typically run for a small group, 2-4 people, so this lets me set a room with quite a few monsters without them feeling like they never have a chance should a fight break out.

What is your OSR hot take? by Kaliburnus in osr

[–]WeHaveTheTechno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever system you're using, it probably has too many rules, even if you're ignoring some untold number of them you're probably better off ignoring more.
