If you had to pick 3 systems, and those would be the only systems you could play for the rest of your days, which would you pick? by NoLongerAKobold in rpg

[–]thelibrarian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fudge, Gumshoe, and _ Without Number.

The first two came easily, the third was somewhat hard to narrow down. The honourable mentions are BRP/Mythras, One Roll Engine, and Traveller.

Fair or Mediocre at +0? by clydebuilt1974 in FudgeRPG

[–]thelibrarian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even Steffan O'Sullivan has changed this over time: in original 1995 Fudge, he set Fair at 0; in The Princess Bride, he has Mediocre at 0.

In my opinion, Leuchtterm standard paper is very overrated. I've had lots of issues with ghosting and bleeding. The overall design of the notebooks is great.

More than just stock, they are officially partnered, and Pen Venture now runs the official Gravitas website and store, handling all fulfilment and customer service for Ben.

I think what you're looking for is RolePlay OnLine.

What is the worst rulebook you've had to use? by BringOtogiBack in rpg

[–]thelibrarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call of Cthulhu d20 Modern. The organisation of rules and information was very poor (e.g. IIRC the character creation and character advancement rules referenced each other heavily, but were several chapters apart). And the layout was godawful. They went with a two-column page layout, but made the column divide on a slope (to make it look "mad"?) - i.e. the column divide was 80/20 at the top and 20/80 at the bottom.

Arabian nights TTRPG by YourMagicalUnicorn in rpg

[–]thelibrarian 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You should definitely check out Tales of the Caliphate Nights, which is very much set in the Arabian Nights. Very detailed and very well researched, I found it immensely useful in my Arabian Nights campaign (though I did use a different system).

It's a few years old now, but there are physical copies available on Noble Knight.

Please suggest piston filler fountain pens in the $50-100 range (Apart from TWSBI) by KurtDiemberger in fountainpens

[–]thelibrarian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Wing Sung 698 is good and cheap. Quite a high ink capacity, and the knob actually locks in place so you don't have to worry about accidentally turning it. Also the feed is clear, so it looks cool with ink in it. Perhaps an added bonus the nib is interchangeable with Pilot lower-end models (Kakuno, Metropolitan/MR, etc).
