I've finished up my new adventure for Cepheus Engine. As I mentioned in a previous post, I'm planning on taking some of the more self-contained adventures I've created for my current Traveller campaign and releasing them as individual zines. It's called Dumb Guys & Big Oxy, and it's available for sale at DriveThru -https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/552504/dumb-guys-big-oxy and … Continue reading Dumb Guys & Big Oxy
My initial zine I've been running a Traveller campaign for a few years now. My players have been bouncing from world to world having adventures, many of which were of my own design. I thought it'd be fun to take some of the adventures and publish them as separate Cepheus Engine zines. I should have … Continue reading Making a Not-Awful Adventure
This is a list of the RPGs I've played or run (mostly run) in 2025, posted here mostly for my reference.This year I've split my games between two meetups, one entirely online, the other face to face. I used to run a one-shot every week, but my gaming was a little lighter this year for … Continue reading Every RPG I played or ran in 2025
I wanted to talk a little about Far West, a RPG set in a Wuxia/Spaghetti Western world. I recently ran a one-shot of it and had a few thoughts. I'm not going to talk about all of the drama about the Kickstarter and troubled development of the game. If you're interested in that, you can … Continue reading Far West – a review of the kung-fu western RPG.
The convention book is always in Traveller LBB form Last weekend I attended TravellerCon/USA, the yearly RPG convention dedicated to the sci-fi RPG Traveller and its many Cepheus Engine variations. This year's theme was Bwaps, the newt-like species from the official Traveller setting. Many of the sessions included Bwaps as part of the setting. You … Continue reading Con Report – TravellerCon USA 2025
If you're running a long term campaign of any RPG, one of the most useful things you can make for yourself is a customized GM screen. Even if the game you're running already has one, it's still a good idea. When you're in the middle of session, the rules and information you find yourself actually … Continue reading A custom GM screen for Traveller
Daredevils was an early pulp adventure game from FGU first published in 1982. I've had the PDF version in my collection for years, but really never found to time to run, or even read it, despite my love of the pulp genre. Recently, after a request from Reddit, I've taken the character sheet from the … Continue reading Daredevils – a fillable character sheet for the 1980s Pulp Adventure RPG
I've been planning on running some games in the Hostile setting, the retro-80s, Aliens-inspired sci-fi RPG from Zozer games. The specific part of the setting I'm interested is the world of Tau Ceti, a jungle planet embroiled in a guerrilla war between an American-backed government, and a Chinese-backed insurgency. It's clearly a Vietnam war analogy, … Continue reading Hostile – Tales of a Vietnam War Dinosaur Planet
My Foreven Sector Traveller campaign (previous entries) is going well, and I'm still creating worlds just ahead of the player's voyages. They recently visited a planet called Nevron, which I didn't have much planned for, so I had to scramble a bit. I didn't have much to go on except for the randomly generated UWP, … Continue reading Building a Galaxy 9 – Nevron- The Sea Dogs
The RPGaDAY2025 challenge ended yesterday. I thought I'd put together a quick list of some of my favorite entries. Maybe not a "best" list, just some of the entries in #RPGaDAY2025 challenge I found interesting. These are all blog posts, as those are the only links I bothered to write down. Quite certain I missed … Continue reading Best of RPGaDAY2025
