One fortress and one dungeon beneath is not enough, so we are adding something extra to Castle of the Veiled Queen, for all of you who like side quests, idolatry and/or digging through ancient funeral mounds in your #OSR games!

It's done and looks awesome! Jacek did a hell of a job to make something usable out of my sketches. The idea was to have every building in the fortress connected not only through courtyard and walls, where guards can spot the trouble-makers, but also via a network of secret tunnels beneath.

It’s still in progress, but I have to admit I’m hyped for the last piece of map for Castle of the Veiled Queen, in which @brzozenwald.bsky.social is encompassing eerie tunnels under the fortress. I hope you’ll find it as beautiful & practical as I do!

I want Castle of the Veiled Queen to be all about detailed maps that let you see the rooms instead of just reading about them. @brzozenwald.bsky.social was the ideal guy to such task, as you can see below. Isometric view + his talent perfectly embodied the castle!

Cover art for Castle of the Veiled Queen, made by Aleksandra Czudżak of czudzak.com We'll print it in the same technique as solo game & BCG - silver foil hot-stamped on black background. All I have to do is to add the title without screwing over her great work!

Yesterday I played one of the best sessions of my life. With my 6yo son as a GM. My thoughts about it (e.g. why OSR is the best) are too long to publish here, so it was also a good reason to dust off my Substack account, where you can read the whole story.

Honey, new Hollow Press stuff just dropped. Are those as good as Vermis?
1) Age of Rot by Strange House / Joonas Ryynamen - sadly, a disappointment. You can see the powerful inspiration from Vermis, powerful to the level of a rip-off (but both titles came out from the same publisher, so...

Me: All right, let's write up some short Corny Groń module for ZineQuest
Also me:
(good thing is I've learnt a lot about Affinity Publisher while squeezing it into 40 pages of B5 format with maps (shoutout for @brzozenwald.bsky.social !), NPC portraits and other art)

It's my first time with Lulu & spiral binding for the zine(s), but it might be not the last - it has its advantages, and the quality of a print is better than I expected (which was something on DTRPG / Amazon PoD tier).

So, it wasn't most profitable endeavour we get ourselves into (publishing in English seems like more reasonable investment of our post-dayjob time and resources), but! I must admit - there's something special in seeing this bad boy published in my mother tongue

Finally, @lukegearing.bsky.social made a ttrpg for playing criminals in the magic-infused, fantasy City.
(putting tongue out of cheek - I dig the idea of playing BitD but on OS system oozing with British-ness, which better fits such stories, and production values by @melsonia.bsky.social are wild)

My hands're itching to share the maps extremely talented @brzozenwald.bsky.social is working on for 1st Corny Groń module. Idea's to have all objects from living and working fort visible on overview (and more!) mapped out for any kind of prison break/heist/treasure hunting adventures in Karpaki.

OMG @gamesomnivorous.bsky.social did it again - Expedition Log is wild, I love this "cloth dust jacket" thing and faux blood stains (my wife got genuine spooked), and the idea of presenting adventure sites via (failed) quest journal is really cool. Don't go - run! to GO store to grab your copy ASAP

I know it's a stinky time (believe me, as a neighbor of Ukraine, I'm quite nervous about US election), but let me share my glimpse of joy - Corny Groń achieved Silver Bestseller status on DTRPG, despite being PWYW product. Yay!
