I've just finished playing The Jaegermeister Adventure for Traveller. Good stuff, and nothing to do with the drink - playing space bounty hunters. Good fun, 10 sessions, and my first time playing Traveller beyond a one shot.

The key reason I don't use AI in my RPG work is that I'm too vain. My writing is better than AI writing, and I have a personal "voice" and things I want to express in my own way. I also love the chance to work with artists whose work I admire (and far exceeds anything AI), which elevates everything.

I've just finished GMing a campaign of Swords of the Serpentine, set in Renaissance Venice. My own work, not the exciting forthcoming @kennethhite.bsky.social book! Good stuff - the Serpent Folk plot was defeated, and war between Venice and the Ottomans was prevented.

Now my turn. You should buy it. It's good. My attempt at an OSR-adjacent RPG involving exploration and factions, focused on a multiworld Empire with an evil at its heart.
The system is based on something familar, but flavoured to suit the setting, especially when it comes to characters.

I thought I found watching or listening in on other peoples' RPG sessions dull. But overhearing @marjoryfrauts.bsky.social this evening playing a Good Society game based around Hobbits and accidentally inventing the jerk chicken patty for a tea party was very entertaining.

Today the two supplements for @thetweedmeister.bsky.social's Out of the Ashes arrived at my doorstep, so now I have everything Out of the Ashes on my shelves! Looking forward to running the campaign in The Book of Quests later this year. Really fond of @handiworkgames.bsky.social's cover art.
