The playtest for Dredge Quick and Drown is live, for free, on my itch! Its a game sort of like if you took the Southern Reach Trilogy and set it on the edge of Ankh Morpork. Its also about the only part of Dark Souls that matters: the poison swamps.

Bad Photoshop?
It also says you can use the other villains if you'd like. It's not a hard and fast rule.
Alexandrian remix sucks, too complicated, adds nonsense you don't need.
I don't really agree! I threw out the city because I *didn't like it,* not because it was inherently bad. Likewise the book literally says you can do the encounters in chapter 4 in any order if you want. I chose to do that work, it wasn't required.
More love needs to be given to Dragon Heist. Despite lacking an actual heist, it did everything I needed it to. I also threw out the city & made up my own, but I used all the villain lairs as is without even reading them, and used most of the encounters in the middle chase. Top 3, all time.
Radiohead sounds like the band you have to sit through before the band you want to see
got a friend to play this on call today, fucking brilliant as always
Always down. We could talk Castle Gygar and Monster Condo, CUSC, or my anime dating sim that's about to hit physical.
Backerkit is closing soon. You don't wanna miss out!!
Ah, not for me then
damn do I need this
I do recommend at least doing a B side playthrough before you move on. I didn't for years and now I kind of think it's the superior route.
RE2 is so sick. The first game is iconic but I think 2 is just better, and I think more people played it to begin with. (Not surprisingly characters from 2 are playable in more games than from 1.)
You unlock Hunk yet?
i GAVE YOU MONEY
Hodag not liking a spaceship in something, what else is new
Kyoto Video is one of the most underrated series on YouTube. Just great video essays about 95% shit you have never heard about.
My tactical fantasy PBTA roleplaying game is out now with new art and a new name.

I also think the existing % In Lair could do something to indicate how far away the lair possibly is. For both Ranger Tracking and the DM has to figure out where this thing lives.
There might be something in this where the d20 roll is first, and contains the entire breadth of monsters who have lairs (in my list, about 70% of monsters have lairs; others are dungeon monsters with 0% in lair.) The trigger on the encounter table should not be the monster, but "Monster Lair."
I don't forsee that being a problem, but my philosophy is if you've found the lair and cleared it out, that thing is off the encounter table and replaced with something else.
It turns out it's in this lol. There's still some community copies but I can also just send it to you

There is almost something here; although I think the real idea is rolling max # appearing. Which IS part of my encounter ritual.
My campaign to replace the D&D cleric with the Earthsea-style wizard and the Tolkien-esque elf continues apace
remembering that @chaoclypse.bsky.social did some work once (that I modified and threw into layout? for some reason?) to basically make it #:20 based on terrain, but I still feel like there's a better/faster way to read existing bones rather than roll new ones.
Crazy that essentially he's just plain still doing it no matter who publishes it.
I think the intended loop is the players enter a hex, you roll a random encounter (presumed to be a monster), and then roll d100 to see if this hex is its lair.
There has to be a better way than rolling that d100 separately.
Gotta be a way to resolve % In Lair without putting a fucking d100 roll on every statblock in the book. Or making a separate list. Or something else stupid.
