DIE RPG Scenarios Vol 1: Bizarre Love Triangles - Rowan, Rook and Decard Undergo wild changes and endure novel dangers in this sourcebook for DIE RPG.

i fully and wholeheartedly recommend the scenario books that accompany the game: childish things has a nasty one, a chill one, and one sort of in between

but Where the Vile Things Are (from vol. 1) stole my heart twice

Dragon Reactor is just a few hundred dollars away from its goal!

Go help the fine folks at @dinoberrypress.bsky.social make this game

Coming soon: Full Send: A Tarot-Powered Mountaineering RPG A tarot-powered, trick-taking tabletop RPG where you'll ascend some of the world's legendary peaks, and risk everything in the process.

Hey, I imagine a lot of my followers really like Celeste. Do you love its introspective look at what drives people to pit themselves in dangerous situations?

I'd really recommend checking out the Kickstarter pre-launch for @laurieoc.bsky.social's new mountaineering TTRPG "Full Send" ⛰️

Y'all we're so close!!

The face of a man who has spent more money in one single month than ever in my life before (worth it though)

Coming soon: Full Send: A Tarot-Powered Mountaineering RPG A tarot-powered, trick-taking tabletop RPG where you'll ascend some of the world's legendary peaks, and risk everything in the process.

I've been weirdly altering and re-altering my prelaunch page at the moment to see what works. The changes KS made are extremely weird. But as usual give the new one a share, let's see what happens!

iii. THE EMPRESSS

A distress call over the radio.

A team submitted last night but one person didn't make it down. A helicopter is circling but has nowhere to land.

Somebody needs to attempt a rescue.

Will it be you?

SOME of the new tarot cards for Full Send designed by @ratwave.uk

Help them become a full deck by following the project!

I'm thinking of putting together a little support group for those of us running them rn that we can use to boost each other etc (because it is much harder than it used to be)

Dragon Reactor: Embers, Ashes, Moments and Stars Project Update: Rivals: A connection borne in Conflict (last poll & funding update!) Greetings, pilots!

So who here is running a trpg kickstarter in August?

Full page showing a smoking man against a tile background hovered in graffiti and old ritual symbols. His face is obscured by smoke. White text calls him “The Rat King” and more describes the scenes and what happens when you meet him.

You are Kassandra King, occult investigator.

You will meet all sort of characters in this city.

The Rat King guards the underground crossroads that link the living and the dead. And the kid always needs a favour.

The silhouette of a climber reaching the edge of a cliff. They approach it carefully. There are tarot cards behind them and the text says "a doomed mountaineering ttpg/ follow now on kickstarter"

Testing out which graphics will work best to advertise the game when it launches. I kind of like this one because it feels brighter.

Hey! If you know me on bsky, please come follow me insta @twelvepinspress

Gen! Con! Haul! 2025 was definitely a board game year with anime girl dominion (Heart of Crown by @japanimegames.bsky.social) our dark horse favorite 👑

TTRPGs are: Orbital Blues by @soulmuppet.co.uk / Under the Autumn Strangely by @thismaybegraham.bsky.social / Arkyvr by @alewoodgames.bsky.social / Caveat Emptor by @exeunt.press / Heroes of Cerulea by @blackfiskpub.bsky.social / To Honor and Obey by @laurieoc.bsky.social

The cover of Hieronymus, which shows a scene from a Hieronymus Bosch painting, and Abenteuer Gestalten, which is a sketch of a bunch of books with dice next to them, and there are adventurers entering the books and becoming more solid looking while a cute blue dragon sits on the books guarding them I guess.

Finally, I got Abenteuer Gestalten ("design adventures") by Andreas Melhorn published by @systemmatters.bsky.social, who I also covered in Episode 15 Part 3. Another book (but from the UK) I got is Hieronymus by @laurieoc.bsky.social from 12 Pins Press because it looks amazing.

Did I spend a significant portion of my weekend designing rewards and graphics for Full Send? Obviously I did.

Give the project a follow if you haven't already; early birds will catch worms.

Was lucky enough to try this out with the big man himself, definitely worth backing it for sure!

Did one more project page glow up. Having surgery tomorrow so that will be the last of it for a bit.
