#forgedinthedark — Public Fediverse posts

I'm very excited for our 3rd session of #MountainHome, a #ForgedInTheDark game about building a dwarf colony, ran by partner!
We are playing as a group of political refugees who left their old Mountainhome for more freedom and ended up in a secluded mountain basin inspired by the #LostWorld vibes, with dinosaurs and stuff.

Mit den Regeln von Blades in the Dark sind teilweise Erfolge gar nicht so unwahrscheinlich. Die Spielleitung hat bis zu ziemlich hohen Werten mindestens 50% Chance zu erzählerischer Hoheit. Ich denke, einen Action-Punkt haben PCs bei fast jedem Wurf, oft +1 wegen Setup und, wenn's hart auf hart kommt, noch +1 wegen "Push yourself", also Action Rating 2-3 im Mittel.
Das Rechnen hat Spaß gemacht und ergibt überraschend übersichtliche Formeln.

#pbta #forgedinthedark #pouncesandpandemonium

Heute: Action & Attributes für Pounce & Pandemonium

Chassis: Affect, Dance, Tolerate, Wreck
Culture: Craft, Hunt, Operate, Study
Psyche: Finesse, Hide, Survey, Trick

Sie sollen alle 5 grundsätzlichen Handlungstypen abdecken: Erkunden, Kämpfen, Täuschen, Verhandeln und Vermeiden.

Halb von Blades in the Dark übernommen, halb neu. Der Ton kommt in den Beschreibungen. Bisher macht's aber viel Spaß.

#pbta #forgedinthedark #PounceAndPandemonium

Bisher habe ich https://github.com/amazingrando/blades-in-the-dark-srd-content heruntergeladen und es in eine brauchbare Form gebracht: die große Markdown-Datei aufgeteilt. Daraus baut sich jetzt per hugo eine Website und per LaTeX ein PDF-Dokument.

Durch die ersten Seiten der Regeln bin ich auch schon durch. Spannend wird es dann bei den Playbooks. Aber irgendwann werde ich dann Pounce & Pandemonium auf frei verfügbar machen. :cc: :cc_by: :cc_nc_us:

Blades in the Dark hat echt Spaß gemacht. Es kann doch nicht so schwer sein, sein eigenes Forged-in-the-Dark-Regelwerk zu basten. Gestern habe ich angefangen.
Und irgendwann wird Pounce & Pandemonium Basis für Staffel 2 meiner Expanse-Kampagne Cat & Canary.

We slice into "Blades in the Dark: Deep Cuts," the first official expansion for the award-winning dark fantasy tabletop RPG from Evil Hat Productions and John Harper. https://ttrpgfans.com/blades-in-the-dark-deep-cuts/ #BladesInTheDark #forgedinthedark #evilhat #Doskvol #ttrpg #RPG

Evil Hat Productions' popular Blades in the Dark RPG is heading into the Swinging Sixties, with the much anticipated "Blades '68" supplement now on BackerKit. https://ttrpgfans.com/blades-68/ #BladesInTheDark #evilhatproductions #forgedinthedark #ttrpg #rpg #blades68

I don't know if anybody else in the universe would benefit from a visualisation of the #probability of different #dice results when playing #ForgedInTheDark based #rpgs (e.g. #BladesInTheDark). Maybe it's just me. But here's an illustration I made anyway.

Are there any Forged in the Dark games that have contributed open content? I love that the core SRD is CC-BY, but are there any hacks that have opened their additions to further hacking?

I’m seriously thinking about making Blades in the Marsh, but I’m curious what else I can build from in a licensed way.

@Bartimaeus danke. Lege dieses Mal mehr Wert auf das worldbuilding und vorbereitete Abenteuer. Regelwerk wird mehr telling. Ein #forgedinthedark Mod. Ist noch Sau viel Arbeit und ich versuche es dieses Mal auch auf English zu verlaufen. Also extra viel Arbeit XD

A fantastic game of The Mean Arena, run by GM @theGROGNARDfiles as Slater's Slayers took on Watford Ravenclaws in the grudge match to end all grudge matches.

Full-time chaos, but unforgettable action at The Mean Arena!

There's another quick deal on #BundleOfHolding for #CBRPNK.

It's an absolutely fantastic and incredibly focused #ForgedInTheDark #cyberpunk RPG. A really slim laser strike on “you've been gathered for _one last job_ - what could go wrong?”

Really awesome and innovative physical presentation, too. It's a trifold little package with dry-erase PC character sheets.

$7 for the package. Pick it up.

Woohoo, I'm making my way through some changes to Tribes in the Dark based on Deep Cuts that I want to try out. The Last Caravan is next on my list but those changes won't be as involved because it's a lot simpler. #TTRPG #ForgedInTheDark

Added some spreads to the preview page for FIRE IN THE SPIRES, my upcoming single player dungeon climbing TTRPG.

If you're in the market for a tabletop RPG set in a terribly cursed patch of ocean during the age of sail: check out Gold Teeth. These guys previously made Teeth, which had a table for looking up specific types of cursed pie.

My lunchtime #Ironsworn game was cancelled for today, unfortunately.

We'll reschedule for next week and try again.

This stuff was so much easier when I was thirteen.

#TTRPG #RPG #PbTA #ForgedInTheDark #IndieRPG

My lunchtime game at work had a great #Ironsworn session. I wish we could play for longer than an hour, but I'll take what I can get and it is still working quite nicely even in its shortened time-slot.

My players set out on their quest to avenge the destruction of their trading outpost by a band of elves that drove wild animals into their steading and set the place ablaze with fire arrows.

The Skylarks bring the circus to town - including a private show for a pair of noble kids since one is under bedrest... and has a direct connection to the crown prince.

@apontious It is something you see a lot in the #PbtA enviorement, so #ForgedInTheDark which is very influent for Candela Obscura, and #Trophy and #RootedInTrophy
You can see it in #BlackSwordHack #RatsInTheWalls and another Kobayashi's games.

It is a great way to decrease combat complexity, but removes a lot of DM strategy and simulation.

I prefer NPCs Do Not Roll, so DM reacting games (PbtA being my real cup of tea).

@LeviKornelsen

What a fantastic idea! Found a bunch of new and known folks to follow!

Hello! I'm the sole proprietor of Not Writing Games! I make and talk about #solorpg and am obsessed with #bladesinthedark and #forgedinthedark games.

I'm also a huge lover of the #cyberpunk genre including games and stories and art of all kinds. I love storytelling and hate capitalism.

Also if you're a fan of the film #MichaelClayton we'd probably have some things in common :P

@LeviKornelsen I'm most likely to talk about the #WorldOfDarkness (esp. #VampireTheMasquerade) but also related stuff, like #ChroniclesOfDarkness sometimes. Lots of #PoweredByTheApocalypse and #BladesInTheDark #ForgedInTheDark too. #Planescape #DarkSun #AlienRPG

I _want_ to chat #LegendOfThe5Rings #Kult #BluePlanet #DeltaGreen #UnknownArmies #SinRPG #HeartRPG #DuneRPG but I gotta admit I'm lax on those fronts.

Maybe some #Shadowrun sneaks in, too.

I just finished reading Girl By Moonlight, and it is a credit to Forged in the Dark games that whenever I read one, I really want to run it.

Before I finish my #Dragonmeet gushing I must mention a brilliant #ForgedintheDark game called #ActionPotential, the scenario was The Planet of Dr Moreau and we played downtrodden scum in a transhuman, body-swapping universe which included mechs, synths and tin rats. A fun afternoon whizzed by thanks to the players and the GM/Author (Rhiannon Swann-Price) #ttrpg #FitD
