Galleons of the Thunderosa looks pretty fuckin' fun! Imagine feeding adventurers into a giant living dungeon to get it to race faster so you can be the first to eat that delicious sun! First hack is already written. DIBS!

Oddly, I also was recently looking into this.
I want to know for reasons also.
Is there, like, a repository of old D&D ads anywhere? Asking for reasons.

I love the penance move. Also I want to see Axolotl with a gun on my shelf! Sure - you should back my kickstarter too - but there are so many good things out this year!
Day 5 of promoting indie TTRPGs as penance for making a D&D thing for Zine Month:
Axolotl with a gun! Fight the jerks destroying your environment with GUNS! Each gun has a different dice mechanic! There's rules for solo, duets, GM-less, and even 10 players!

The Inq28 scene has similar energy to the OSR when I first joined it. Mordheim feels like the BX of Inq28, but I've turned toward Forbidden Psalms as a quick entry. However, there is still something about Mordheim that is alluring: icastlight.blogspot.com/2026/02/psal...

I made a point to not do any advertising and Kickstarter stuff yesterday. It is exhausting to keep up social media. Also, who wants to hear about this adventure every single day?
It was definitely good for my brain and gave me some room to start work on Shadow of Lunaris 2: Under a Manic Moon.

Thanks to all the backers so far! We are at $5 short of the next stretch goal. I'll be honest, it is a pretty cool goal, but I'm really interested in the one after that: Profit Sharing.

Books are meant to be read and toys are meant to be played with. This is a rad idea.

So, I bought this broken down, split spine, board separated, sorry state AD&D 1e Monster Manual.
The idea is that I'm going to colour my way through it. A bit of meditative self time.
Call it sacrilege, but I figure this book can have a second life, albeit under my amateur hand.
