OD&D by the book. Peril, plans, a fortuitous Hydra, and some very luck rolls.

Huh.
Fantasy Grounds just went 100% free.

You could now run Old School Essentials Core, OSRIC (1e clone) or 5e Basic - and many other fan made rules - for all your friends, for 0 dollars.

"Why megadungeons?" My pitch is that they are a campaign format that concentrates ideas, maximizes novelty, uses familiarity to advantage, and can be run in 2-4 hour sessions. Plus, between Silk Song and Delicious in Dungeon- everyone knows what they are! icastlight.blogspot.com/2025/09/why-...

I discovered that my local library had shelves of board games and sometimes has open days to try them, so I thought I'd ask whether they also do TTRPGs.
Long story short, they'll now have a D&D day where I'll run a public one-shot!

Let's get more people into the hobby!

I'm watching videos on the Bronze Age Collapse (a fascinating history topic), and the fact that civilizations suddenly collapsed all the same time, almost like an end of the world, gave me a crazy idea: BRONZE BORG.
You heard it here first, folks.

Given its shared roots in Cairn, I'm pretty sure that Block, Dodge, Parry is 99% compatible with #Mausritter 🤔

Don’t let The Black Hack’s simplicity fool you. Beneath its scrappy charm beats one of the cleverest OSR hearts in modern gaming – fast, human, and beautifully brutal. Read “The Secret Brilliance of The Black Hack”
The Secret Brilliance of The Black Hack
The Black Hack looks deceptively simple – a few pages of minimalist rules that strip D&D to its bones. Beneath its scrappy DIY surface lies one of the smartest pieces of game design in the OSR: a system that remembers what made the old games great, and what made them human.
