Built my first Compendium for #FoundryVTT this morning. It was easier than I thought. Now to see if my buddy can install & use it on his Foundry rig.

Trying something new. Working on a #battlemap of a Firefly space freighter for an upcoming #GURPS game. This old girl is a bit of a rust bucket atm. With luck & elbow grease she'll shape up. Here's the Engine Room.

Yes, you need to ditch the prologue (probably). But that's not the only mistake making your lore drops feel... awkward and clunky. Janet reveals the top 4 most common exposition errors - PLUS, how to fix them! youtu.be/z8FedteY33w

Working on the new #GURPS Wardlands Campaign set in the world of Ehrto. Today I'm designing and building out the campaign Timeline at #Worldanvil. Set at the edge of "civilized" lands, this campaign will feature more Action and Monsters than my other ongoing games. I'm enjoying the darker mood. 🖤

I'm staring to use #FoundryVTT as a #Worldbuilding tool as much as a virtual tabletop these days. With macros that generate random dates/names, calculate date offsets, quickly search for #GURPS defaults, & the like - I'm routinely finding new ways to use this tool. I'm even building maps in Foundry!
