Ludicrous Pedagogy | Looking for Next TTRPG Exchangees 👀⬇️

It's heartening to see such lovely drawings to come from our little playtest today - all seems good with the Celtic adventure - inspiring stuff!

Excited to return to these #ttrpg #rpg #history adventures!

We're off to St Fagans National Museum of History with PowerUP! @platfform.org this half-term with a return to one of my favourite projects playframe.itch.io/dwellings-an... unique chance to roleplay mythic fantasy Welsh History in actual historical buildings! Details 👇

Take a few minutes to appreciate Drew Struzan creating the original artwork for THE PHANTOM MENACE. Truly a master at work.

The end product of our TTRPG Youth Exchanges - Biosphere Guardians 2050 - stealthily came out in pdf at the very end of 24 (-1 point) - but we only got physical copies this year! loco-ludus.itch.io/biosphere-gu...

Thanks to @taithwales.bsky.social a week ago we were in the amazing slow village Grumes, in gorgeous Trentino, Italy with another #TTRPG #Youth Exchange.
Young people from Wales, Italy, Germany, Ireland and Lithuania spent a week developing expansions on Biosphere Guardians 2050! So much to share!

DO IT YOURSELF Half of a tabletop roleplaying game by Grant Howitt Based on the Havoc Engine patreon.com/gshowitt for more free stuff It is the near future. YOU are a FREEDOM FIGHTER. You and your comrades oppose the fascist regime and prepare to strike a decisive blow against them. MISSING RULES When you see “◀,” a rule is missing. When you need a rule, or when you decide to do so, the player whose character it would affect writes the rule and uses it immediately. Once a rule has been established, it lasts until the end of the session. THE GAMESMASTER The GM has the normal authority they wield in any other given RPG - they make up the scenario, set the pace and control the world outside of the player characters - but they must follow the rules as written if possible.

DANGER AND CONDITIONS If you do something dangerous or an NPC acts against you, GM rolls 1-6 dice. Mark their successes as conditions. Clear conditions when you ◀. If you cannot cannot mark any more conditions, ◀.

FERVOUR When a fight kicks off, roll D6. The Result is your FERVOUR (⛛). Spend ⛛ to: - Act before the enemy each round, or they go first - Negate an NPC’s success spend against you - Activate a ⛛ ability - ◀ - ◀

July's free RPG is the ludic antifascist DO IT YOURSELF.

Half the game is unwritten. How are you going to complete it? Will you follow my delicate inferences and guidance, or do something significantly more interesting?

Yeah it's nice but by default watch out for the death spiral of stat damage - some folk don't find it that fun.
But it's flexibility is well exemplified by all the games Free League have used it in.

I've also used a simplified Year Zero for my Dwellings and Dragons games.. which was a bunch of historical settings, but never really wrote down the rules properly..

Thanks! So, pdfs are always free with our projects, but if you really want a physical zine DM me and I can post one somewhere.
Any questions shoot!

This is cool! A regular hit at my tables!

I do not want AI in art
I do not want in whole or part
I do not want it when I write
Creatively it’s really shite
I do not want it making pics
Of stolen work it has remixed
I do not want it in my mail
This really is beyond the pale
I do not want this endless spam
I hate it, hate it, Sam Altman

It's far less exciting that the title suggests - I thought we would get to date Marx!

Last week's "Good" Lion was impressive, since they went from box to table-ready in one club session!

Kindling Club model of the week! - The Chaos Lion looking superb

Text of a twitter thread reads: Bryan Fischer: Worst example of cultural appropriation ever: LGBTs stole the rainbow from God. It's his. He invented it. Gen.9:11-17 Give it back. Reply by Christ Stedman: One of my favorite things about pride month is celebrating the many achievements of the LGBTQ community, like when we collectively stole the rainbow from God.

Well, this heist rpg pratically writes itself.

God hordes light refracted through a million water droplets making the most powerful symbol of hope after dark times... you are going to steal it, pick your team.
