New at Polyhedral Dreams: My Ultimate D&D!
https://polyhedral-dreams.blogspot.com/2026/09/my-ultimate-d.html
Just saying: Skyrealms of Jorune was doing a surprising amount of Avatar decades earlier. Floating islands. Human colonists with advanced technology. Indigenous peoples tied to an alien world humans barely understand. Ecological weirdness. Cultural collision.
Pandora is lovely. But we’ve seen some of this sky before. 🌙 #ttrpg
Just found out two small #TTRPG game publishers I liked essentially disappeared in the last few years.
Shattered Pike Studio - I really liked The Wasted Hack, their post-apocalypse Black Hack game.
LIghtsPress Media - I loved DoubleZero, their action\adventure RPG loosely inspired by the old James Bond game.
Just a reminder - if you see a small publisher RPG you find interesting, buy it now, before it disappears into the ether.
Classic Traveller isn’t OSR. It’s one of the original Old School games from which we can recognise an OSR style.
Classic Traveller arguably demonstrates that many things subsequently identified as “OSR principles” weren’t really D&D principles. They were 1970s #ttrpg design principles.
Ran a one-shot of #PirateBorg for a local game shop's RPG day. Went quite well.
The Borg system is solid, and the introductory starter set adventure "Trapped in the Tropics" is quite good. Drops the players right in the action, gives a clear goal (escape) without being railroady. Lots of places and people to interact with.
The draft of Jorune 2D (the Traveller conversion for Skyrealms of Jorune) is progressing nicely. Some great work from my pals at Seven Moons Workshop. It’s a joy to be working in a team on something.

A friend of mine is starting a Patreon called "Mostly Boring Battlemap Theater." Battlemaps with matching totm-style scenery backdrops for those mundane locations between the setpiece battles.

Da kommenden Samstag schon die #MonsteriaCon ist, sollte ich mal an DunkelGrotten weitermachen. XD
Ich bin gerade beim für mich spannendsten Teil: den Bossen. Die armen Seelen der Spielfiguren werden es unter anderem mit mächtigen Nekromanten, Geistern, Werwölfen, Zombies und Vampiren zu tun bekommen. Zrahd von Strarovich wird wohl auch dabei sein – und er ist angepisst, weil er die Liebe seines (inzwischen untoten) Lebens auch in den Grotten nicht gefunden hat. XD
Ich hab mega Spaß, Details zu Strahd und Lord Soth zu recherchieren, damit Leute sie ggf. wiedererkennen – außerdem gibt es viel Flavour, wenn Soth statt eines schnöden Langschwerts seinen brennenden Streitkolben schwingt.
My purchase today: a bunch of giant D10s (ordinary D6 there for scale) and a book with 192 pages of grids - I feel a #DND mega-dungeon coming soon! #DungeonsAndDragons #TTRPG
#7IdeenUm7 am Samstag (Nr. 180)
Wir haben sieben Seeleute gefragt: Wie hält man ein Schiff auf Position?
1. "Mit einem Anker natürlich."
2. "Beidrehen und beilegen geht auch."
3. "Auf eine Sandbank setzen?"
4. "Lieber in ein Trockendock fahren."
5. "Man kann's auch einfach versenken."
6. "Oder in einem Museum ausstellen."
7. "Dann reicht auch ein Bild malen."
Bonus: "Strömung und Wind abstellen; das Ritual dafür ist gar nicht so blutig und recht unkompliziert." #zufallstabelle #pnpde #ttrpg
Interesting video on the actual size of a 6-mile hex:
Seems like about half of current The Dark Eye #ttrpg fan releases are the episodes of a serialized bodice ripper.
I'm writing up some #Daggerheart characters for my one shot. I'm making the experiences fairly broad, since it's a one shot and they have a hope cost to use.
This one is so broad I might add a roll for stress on failure, but for example:
How Hard Could It Be?
Tazzi has spent their life approaching unfamiliar problems with considerably more confidence than preparation. When they don’t know how to do something, their instinct is to have a go. Surprisingly often, that works. #TTRPG
Fin de notre campagne estivale de #LiminalHorror. Mes courageux PJ ont braqué une boutique de déguisements pour se faire passer pour des pythagoriciens lors de leur infiltration du congélateur druidique occupé par les technopaïens afin de dérober le processeur quantique nécessaire au rituel de voyage entre les réflexions pour regagner leur dimension d'origine. Au total, en 7 séances, on aura visité 4 des 12 étages de mon #Dungeon23

Fausse capture d'écran du site de Ouest-France, montrant un article factice illustré par une photographie de la boutique Cotilux à Caen. On peut y lire: "Le mystérieux braquage nocturne du magasin de costumes Cotilux
Le rideau de fer de l'icônique boutique du centre-ville caennais a été forcé au pied de biche dans la nuit de vendredi à samedi par un malfrat qui s'est empressé de dérober trois fausses barbes et une boule à facettes.
Aux alentours de 01h11, dans la nuit de vendredi à samedi, un sinistre individu s'est attaqué à l'emblématique rideau de fer orné du pirate bien connu des caennaises et caennais. Le malfrat était armé d'un pied de biche Castorama qu'il a laissé sur place. Le temps que la police arrive sur les lieux, le cambrioleur était déjà loin, emportant fièrement son butin constitué de trois fausses barbes et d'une boule à facettes disco.
Si les motivations du criminel restent encore un mystère, une chose est sûre : il n'en est pas à son coup d'essai. Le domaine de Beauregard a également été pris pour cible un mois plus tôt, lorsque le même énergumène a dérobé des tenues de paintball."
Dans la colonne de droite, une fausse pub vante les mérites de l'autolaveuse Hako Scrubmaster B400R.
I guess the world today is ripe (aka dumb enough) for another one of these. So be careful what you post to #ttrpg sites and forums, you may get their poor operators in trouble!

Hot take: I don't like the Lord of the Rings movies, and I think they are doing a disservice to the books, the fantasy genre, and roleplaying games as a hobby.
They are ultimately not a very good adaption of the book and put mindless spectacle over the themes of loss and trauma that Tolkien clearly was working through. And their questionable art choices keep reverberating through fantasy, keeping 1980s dnd kitsch alive way past it's time.
🎲 Stay tuned for my letter-writing game where you play a double-undercover werewolf reporting from the depths of an enemy ship. #ttrpg

Today I released WE GO IN for Traveller #ttrpg. It’s a non-violent career and mission generator (and includes a new ship).
I wanted a story that was not about violence and all about saving people.

Games like Call of Cthulhu demand that characters lose their minds, but players fight to keep them safe. It is time to rethink how we handle fail states in roleplaying games and embrace the disaster. #TTRPG https://www.geeknative.com/241679/genre-police-losing-to-win/
