Both are great, they feel like 5e-adjascent OSR Supplements. I prefer Into The Cess and Citadel, mostly because I’ve only read one other City supplement for D&D (Lankhmar).

March Shareholder Meeting I thought i'd make the effort to inform the few people who read this blog about the various projects i'm currently working on.\\ We had a good quarter,...

This man is out of his fucking mind

I believe in you, and I’m sorry about your situation.

Only if there’s a grimy little gnome waiting in the doorway

I am proud to announce the creation of The Anathean Chronicle, my OSR Blog.
My first post is the entirety of the Landing Level for my Megadungeon Castle Blackstone.

I will be digitizing and sharing my Dungeons, Settlements and other Content here.

I love this art, especially for a Player’s Handbook. It tells you what you’re gonna be doing in game, and it makes it look cool as hecc.

There may be, I have a few “full” songs I’m working on but the progress is rather slow right now.

I’m trying to softly nudge my players towards the area where Temple of Elemental Evil and Dark Tower are in my world.

I feel like a real fucking artist now. I’m making the music i’ve always wanted to listen to.

8-bit Dreams.

The Minilogue continues to Wow me with the sounds it can make.

Beautiful

I’m a very big fan of traps that don’t kill anyone but absolutely ruin your day.

Stuff like a portcullis splitting the party, setting off an alarm while a Green Slime drops on top of one half of the party.

Also Gygaxian Floor Monsters that camouflage with the dungeon floor.

I dig the cute art style, it gives very comfy vibes.

Drew my Mork Borg character.

His name is Bordeus Klork, his mom's name is Sergeant Cuddles.

I love the 1e DMG’s tables, I’ve found that they’ve added a lot of verisimilitude to my games.

A combination of the AD&D 1e DMG tables, Judge’s Guild Wilderlands tables and personal preference.

Oh haha, it’s not. This is all for my home AD&D Campaign I run monthly. That said, I may look into digitizing my work and releasing it one day.

What do you mean?
Is it part of a module or am I making a module?

The final version of my Hex Map for Fortress Badabaskor’s Local Area. All Terrain, points of interest and landmarks have been added.

The “Local Area of Fort Badabaskor” Hex Map is now complete. Now on to keying this monstrosity…

#OSR #AD&D #D&D

The current state of my hex map of the local area around Fort Badabaskor and Castle Blackstone’s Ruins. Each small hex represents 1 mile and the larger penciled in hexes represent 5 miles. I managed to fill every hex with a good amount of landmarks, potential rest stops, caves, camps, mini-dungeons, towns and fortresses. There’s also a good variety of Terrain to traverse.

I use the Hexmap key from the D30 Sandbox Companion by New Big Dragon Games. I colored in a few of the hexes during my Crayon days of representing terrain.

Today’s progress on the “Badabaskor/Castle Blackstone + Environs” hex map.

Quite proud of how densely populated with Points of Interest/Terrain each 5 mile hex is.

#OSR #AD&D #D&D

I telegraph every trap pretty heavily, usually because I enjoy employing life ruining traps that ruin your day.

Spending time looking over areas of interest usually reveal one detail at a time for every described action a player is taking to find the trap.

Yes, on the left map one of the larger hexes corresponds to one of the small hexes on the right.

For the new map, a small hex is 1 mile and the overlapping hex is 5 miles. For the larger overland map above, a small hex is 5 miles and a larger hex is 25 miles.

Its main use is partitioning everything into scaleable chunks of content, the size allows spending a whole day exploring a larger hex.

Current progress on the Local Area hex map. Main features are Badabaskor, the Castle Blackstone ruins (My Megadungeon) and the Crater where resources are mined. To the east is a mountain range, containing the Mounstrous Tribal Coalition locale and some other goodies (2 Dwarven Strongholds in hiding and one overtaken by a Green Dragon.

The amount of special features (marked by a *) I have keyed so far.

And we are done for today. I like passively working on my D&D prep while I’m at home in between chores and errands.

#OSR #AD&D #D&D

Oh absolutely, I’ve realized that I overprepared a lot of hex/world content. On the bright side, I have a lot on the backburner I can pull out whenever I need it.

The area within the borders is The Farroan Empire, a minuscule and weak shadow of its former continent spanning imperialist territory. Outside of it is The Liberated Coastline of Yax’mal, a newer country established by a the Native people of Yax‘mal and the City-State Rim-Fanathur across the sea.

The scale for the new hex map is magnified x5. The top hex map is at a scale of 1 hex for every 5 miles, 1 large hex for every 25. The bottom one is 1 hex per mile and 1 larger hex per 5 miles.

As I begin to prepare for February’s AD&D session, I’ve focused in on the circled area.

The campaign doesn’t look like it’ll move away for a while.

The area includes a large crater (magical in nature), that allows the river and lake to flow towards the ocean. Lots of ruins and mines too.
