Yes this exactly what we mean. If you want everyone in your group to have their own copy, we want to make that a little easier for you. This also makes it easier for people like @friede.bsky.social and @guyintheblackhat.bsky.social and @czamboni.bsky.social to pick up classroom copies.
congratulations on this amazingly successful launch - this rules. quick question - when you say "retailer / coop", do you mean i can join forces with my pals and buy a bunch of copies to share, without being a retailer?

Japanese TTRPG "replays" are a rather peculiar thing.
It doesn't adapt TTRPG content into novels (like Dragonlance), but rather documents the "actual gameplay process."

I'm trying to wrap my head around the DriveThru announcement.
So they take a 35% cut on a physical book that I store in my house, that I pack, and I bring to the post office? That cut is apparently valued because of the number of potential new eyes on the game?
Just go to my store.

It's cosy weather season, so it's the perfect time to roleplay as a Paladin and their beloved, solving mysteries together and while trying to stop said Paladin from going off the rails....(Inspired by T Kingfisher's Saint of Steel series!)

we made a joke about that last sentence more than once when we were in japan. i'm so excited for a ttrpg that explores the real experience of actually being in that godforsaken station
In October, a new OSR "シンジュク・ダンジョンTRPG（Shinjuku Dungeon TRPG）" will be released from Japan. Explore the underground of Shinjuku in Tokyo, which has become a dungeon.
※In fact, Shinjuku Station's underground area is vast and confusing that it feels like a real dungeon.

it gets a brief mention but i really don't feel like rpggeek gets enough credit. i won't defend it from not being super intuitive to navigate, but it is SUCH a wealth of information with a LOT of filters and categorization available and i wish the indie ttrpg community would better utilize it
Solving tabletop's discoverability issues proved too much for one person, but the creator of the Tiny Table Index hopes others will pick up the torch.

ttrpg about being travelers staying medium-term at a tavern run by retired adventurers who Have History and just kind of being like "goddamn there's SOMETHING going on here and i'm vaguely uncomfortable by the awkward tension but INTRIGUED by the tea that remains unspilled"
When people buy Stewpot: Tales From a Fantasy Tavern and For the Queen together (as well they should), we like to imagine they're playing them together somehow, with the Queen's entourage stopping at a tavern run by retired adventurers who Have History.
