Of course, with In The Labyrinth, The Fantasy Trip is evolved half-way into GURPS, with Reaction Rolls, Advantages (aka Talents), etc. The two are still fairly easily compatible. The tiny TFT character sheet is almost a valid GURPS character sheet! #ttrpg
A bit more about The Fantasy Trip: the box is *packed*. And it’s always interesting to me when an “implied setting” gets slowly fleshed out with a map and locale or two. Plus: MEGAHEXES! (disclaimer: megahexes was a bad idea) #ttrpg
The Fantasy Trip is a giant box that reprints Steve Jackson’s mini-games Melee and Wizard (1977/1978!) These simple skirmish-like rules get turned into a full #TTRPG with In The Labyrinth (1980!) It’s as different from D&D as RuneQuest was. That’s my kind of OSR!
I finally watched the first two episodes of Utopia and wow, I really love it. I have no idea where it’s going, and when I know where it’s going it’s much worse than I thought. I like that!
Good morning!
In last week’s #RuneQuest #Glorantha game, the adventurers ran into a swarm of Rubble Runners. It occurred to them that they had never seen baby Rubble Runners. Then it occurred to them that Rubble Runners *are* the babies. And then they met the mom! #ttrpg
If you have backed the HarnWorld hardcover Kickstarter, you should have gotten the PDF version by now and noticed that some articles have gotten longer. You can find details about those changes here on the Lythia forums. #ttrpg #harn
I did some cleaning this weekend… remember when this was all the rage?
It’s spring. You know what this means: the rhubarb pie posts are coming back!
I have finally seen Zardoz. Holy shit. I was expecting something weird but nothing prepared me for what I saw.
