Ah ok, I thought you meant there was a way of bringing sounds from multiple soundboards together into one to make it easier from switching between things.
Pay Patreon so can use the downloads and alt versions, just trying to find a smoother way of doing it with out switching between too many things.

Nice, I will certainly look into it :)

Have just started to use it actually :) what do you mean by build a soundboard?

Nice, I’m pretty tempted I must admit :) is it still a lot to track if playing 2 characters do you think?

Does it have a solo mode? If so, have you done it and would you recommend it?

Yes only reading through the core too. But after playing starterset, it seems TOR2e is harder to pass skill tests than YZ- unless we have just been temporarily plagued with bad rolls. Think due to this, will work out TN from 18 for the landmark in the core book then add 2 to TN for the campaign.

Nice, after we wrap up our CoC campaign soon we will be doing the landmark in the core book and then the Lone lands campaign too :)

Nice, what are you thoughts on the system? At a glance? Players liked it, although, have noticed dice rolls are tough. A lot of failed rolls and needing to burn through hope. But I kinda like it. I’m used to CoC and Vaesen so it’s been nice to study a new system (full campaign with core rules soon).

As a GM, I decided to try to create more immersion in the game & started playing with sounds & ambience for first time this evening (turned down really low to not cause distraction). For those that use sounds and ambience regularly, what do you use? I was using a mix of YouTube and tabletop audio.

Enjoyed starting GM’ing The One Ring 2e Starter set with my group today. Can tell this mini campaign will be a lot of fun :)

A great game! Really enjoyed playing it! Think they need to release more adventures πŸ˜ƒ

Jornada Springs, New Mexico - a Tale of the Old West: Part 15 | Effekt AP | Episode 16

One of the challenges about scheduling AP episodes to go live weekly (weekly!? I am amazed and I did it) is I forget to tell everyone sometimes, when they go live. This particular episode is a corker - a tense fireside disagreement, guns might be drawn …

I’m planning a small print run of the currently out of print Liminal supplements Pax Londinium and the Casebook. If you’d like to preorder something from this run, please be quick - I’m only keeping the preorder open for a couple of weeks.

We failed to put out a show on schedule last week. Sorry, we were too busy at London ComicCon. To make up for it, here is an unedited first hour of our first meeting when we sat down to design our forthcoming TTRPG Tales of the Old West

Nice, I backed Moria too but I actually haven’t got the one ring to the table yet 🀣 currently running CoC and Vaesen campaigns and when they’re done will be moving into the one ring or rivers of London- not sure which one first yet!

Yea, I agree 100%

Even if it is a cost them, I’d be happy if physical products are a small fraction more expensive to cover the cost of hosting a pdf service.

For me there’s a clear expectation. If a book didn’t come with a free pdf I wouldn’t buy it. I prefer print but the pdf is so useful that it feels pretty essential.

Whenever I’ve bought a book I have always had a bits & mortar link or have been able to download from publishers.

Get to know your mutuals. List 10 things you’re into:

1. Running TTRPG’s
2. Playing TTRPG’s
3. Reading random TTRPG modules and smiling to myself at different ways I can mess up the players.
4. Metal music.
5. Buying TTRPG’s for a later date.
6. Cooking.
Errr, that’s about it, can’t make it to 10 🀣

Good :) I keep buying the one ring stuff as soon as it goes on sale… the one ring is 4 campaigns away so could be worse I guess 🀣 buying rpg books is way too addictive!

The One Ring designers on exploring Khazad-dΓ»m before the books, invisible goblins and avoiding Bal... And how it differs from the cancelled The Long Dark campaign.

Missed this article on the one ring 2e Moria expansion a couple of week’s ago. Can’t wait until this arrives :) is it weird to keep on buying books and getting excited for a game you haven’t actually got to the table yet?? #RPGaddict
