I’m going to ChaosiumCon UK this weekend and I somehow managed to book awesome games I would have a hard time finding elsewhere: Ringworld, Elfquest, Lords of the Middle Sea, Rivers of London, 13th Age Glorantha, and a RuneQuest Tournament! #TTRPG

Some Notes on Mausritter
Mausritter is a TTRPG in which you play little adventuring mice trying to survive in a world of big dangers. If you’re a fan of the excellent comicbook Mouse Guard, you should already be hooked! The system is as minimalist as its protagonists, with low-prep two-hours adventures, so we played this a dozen times as an “interlude game”: the sort of game you play when a key player is missing, or in between campaign arcs. I also played this several times with TTRPG newbies, with up to 8 players! Here are my notes on Mausritter!
I cannot understate how shitty the Apple TV remote is, compared to the Roku remote. It’s as if Apple went for the cool factor rather than usability. It’s like a car dashboard designed entirely of touch screens. Ugh.
I finally started listening to the Dark Adventure Radio Theatre audiobooks I got from the HPLHS a while back and they’re really well done!
Good morning! The fluffy boy gets his XL ball these days because he’s a good boy!
I hope this email finds you catching up on the 60 or so free PDFs you still haven’t downloaded from all those Kickstarters you backed over the past few months.

Hello from Colonel Fluff!
Don’t forget to roll around naked on your stuff to make it smell like you and prevent people from taking it! I can assure you, once you tell people you rolled around naked on it, they won’t want it. Guaranteed.
