Even though I’ve been running Castles & Crusades for a number of years now and it’s my “D&D” of choice, I constantly reread parts of the PHB and CKG. It helps to further internalize rules and procedures. It’s also the rare game where I read every spell. ⚔️ #CastlesandCrusades #DnD #ttrpg

Today marks the 36th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. The ultimate symbol of socialist oppression & evil was torn down by my fellow Germans who had had enough of the murderous socialist regime. Never forget the evils of socialism and our natural drive for liberty. #BerlinWall #Mauerfall

I’ve been spending a lot of time in d100 RPG land again recently: reading, studying, and prepping. I’ve been especially focused on RuneQuest, Jackals, and HarnMaster. I absolutely love these games and systems. I’m also starting to (finally) read Zweihänder. #ttrpg #RuneQuest #Harn #Jackals

If you’re serious about good fantasy worldbuilding, there are two settings I feel are must-reads to understand how to do it properly. They both present vastly different yet brilliantly detailed worlds: Glorantha and Hârn. Buy some PDFs and study them. #Glorantha #Harn #ttrpg #DnD #RuneQuest

After 2 years of designing and playtesting, book 1 (the “PHB”) of my OSR game “Falenburg” is done. Next up is finalizing book 2 (the “DMG”) which includes compiling a few years of playtest notes, thoughts, random tables, etc. A lot of book 2 is already done. #OSR #DnD #ttrpg

My hand drawn map of the city of Hawkmoor and its surrounding lands for our OD&D campaign. It’s a bit (very) rough in spots, but it’ll do for the table. I’ll need to scan it, do some touch ups and label it. #DnD #ODnD #OSR #ttrpg #fantasymap

This evening’s reading is Empire of the Petal Throne. After speaking a lot with Victor from the Tékumel Foundation at ArneCon last weekend (and getting some great tips), I’m motivated to want to get the system and especially the setting down enough to run some sessions with EPT. #DnD #OSR #ttrpg

I’m using @dysonlogos.bsky.social B/X character sheets for my OD&D campaigns. It’s not a 100% matchup, but 99.9% and the slight differences are negligible. I just find it visually extremely appealing and the players are able to put all important info on a page with room to spare. #DnD #OSR #ttrpg

I picked a nice modest haul of 📚 at ArneCon yesterday. Left to right: required reading for Classic Traveller, some OD&D in the form of Seven Voyages of Zylarthen, and an issue of the Empire of the Petal Throne zine The Excellent Travelling Volume. #ArneCon #DnD #Traveller #Tekumel

It’s never easy to say goodbye to a family dog. Sadly our Cody passed away during the night. Hug your dogs. Their love is pure and without fail.

I’m throwing together a short notice OSE game for this evening. Since I’m not sure if this will evolve into anything long-term, I’ll be running “The Incandescent Grottoes” and set it in the amazing world of Mystara. ⚔️ #DnD #ttrpg #OSR #OldSchoolEssentials

It was a beautiful late summer day in my German home-city of Münster. It was here (on this very street) that the Thirty Years’ War came to an end in 1648. Münster has a wonderful medieval city center that was carefully rebuilt after WW2. 🇩🇪 ☀️
