  1. CW: Outlaws of the North

    Been running B5 Horror on the Hill for my Nimble group. They’ve been having fun ambushing and performing a guerrilla war against the hobgoblins. Hard to believe this adventure was for 1st level characters.

    They have yet to go inside the monastery grounds, but now the hobgoblins are on alert and aren’t coming out.

  2. I need some interesting magic items to give my group. I must admit, Nimble’s sample magic items are very few and not the best.

    I want to give them some useful utility items that won’t break the game but will expand their options.

  3. Outlaws of the North

    My group is headed to Imperial Hill next session, named for the old fort on the hill when this was the old border of the empire hundreds of years ago.

    What are some interesting places to see there? Fun facts? Signature produce?

    It does sit in the middle of Marsanne wine country.

  4. Brilliant idea, or terrible idea: play a game of Dwarf Fortress. Turn the map into a megadungeon for my Nimble game.

    A thousand years later after it’s been transformed for another purpose.

  6. Has anyone played Nimble yet? I was being lazy and Questing Beast's review of it popped up on my YT feed. It sounds and looks cool. Anyone have any thoughts on it?

  7. My group successfully committed some insurance fraud at the Snail Fancier Society

    They followed instructions and didn’t end up in combat.

    They are starting to have enough money that I need to find things they can spend it on.

    Next time they go hunting in the sewers for the beast that’s been eating beggars.

  8. Nimble raises US$ 47M to give AI agents access to real-time web data: The startup uses AI agents to search the web, verify and validate the results, then clean and structure the information into neat tables that can be queried like a database, solving the data quality problem for agentic systems. techcrunch.com/2026/02/24/nimb #AIagent #AI #LLM #GenAI #Nimble

  11. So was thinking back on last weekend's session and I think I've found one of Dusk's main hobbies: cooking!

    You see, as a gnoll, it's true she can eat pretty much anything without issue, but she has a sensitive sniffer, and her shaman and naturalistic training has taught her which herbs and spices are useful for different to bring out different sorts of flavors in her hunts and catches.

    This came out of our shopping trip in preparation for going to investigate why goblins took the founding documents of the town we are in. (Suffice it to say we know they were exiled at one point, but taking the founding documents doesn't do them any good in being able to rejoin the town.)

    When we entered the provisions store, once the DM described the inside, Dusk basically went straight for the spice rack, with all its lovely smells. Sage, oregeno, thyme, baisley, even some curry! She even got a discount on it by accidentally intimidating the kobold shopkeep who had planned to try and overcharge her. Really, all she did was reiterate she liked her meals *fresh* and give him a big toothy smile! The little 3' kobold certainly had nothing to fear from this 7'3" big beefy gnoll lady with very sharp teeth....

  12. Fun TTRPG story time! A week late or so though, I suppose.

    So, a group on a Discord server I'm in started a RPG campaign to try out a relatively new system called Nimble. It's kind of a rules-lite reimplementation of D&D 5e, in that it's extremely easy to translate 5e content, while streamlininging multiple aspects of combat. For example(and this is relevant) you don't roll to-hit. Instead, you just roll your damage die, which misses on a 1, and on max damage it counts as a crit, and you can roll it again(and keep doing so until you don't roll max damage on it ). Normally this can be offset by a "Defend" action that reduces the damage by your armor, but crits ignore this. It's based on a three action system like Pathfinder 2e, but the first round you usually don't get your full three actions.

    So our GM(who is also a bit out of practice) decides to take it easy on everyone and do the stereotypical tavern introduction scene to bring the party together.

    Dusk - my character, a 7'+ tall lady gnoll druid type with dark fur
    Anuleth - a 3' tall bird folk bard resembling a blue warbler
    Drake - a androgynous human student of the old magics
    Ver - an elven elemental mage
    Klack-Klack - a dragonborn barbarian with a greataxe and not much else

    To start things off, the bard was a local and performing while people got their orders in, and conversations started to be struck up. Dusk requested a song of a heroic ballad, which our bard indulged, then literally shoved her face in the stew bowl she had ordered when it arrived. A few kobold miners showed up, poking at her as gnolls aren't typically seen in that area, but she refused the situation by sharing a bit of it with them, and they went to a different table to celebrate.

    Shortly after, a large goblin(at 4') barged in, making threats at the konolds, as well as at the mage and barbarian, as they had previously had a run-in with them. The bard, who had just gone on break and had been chatting with Drake, took exception to this and returned the insults, but backed with magical force.

    The goblin did not take this well, and called in his boys, who began to advance on both the two little groups(as the mage and barbarian had also been sitting together). Now Dusk had enjoyed the birdboy's music, and took exception to THAT, so she stood and shouted, "Hey, I liked that guy's music!" And full forced threw the empty stew bowl at the head goblin.

    Now I just expected this to be the opening shot, but I rolled a crit. Then it exploded again into a third die before stopping. End result? She chucked the bowl at him so hard it outright killed him AND sent his body flying out through the door!

    As the bard pointed a finger in the air and shouted "That's my girl!" Dusk then used her remaining action to cast a wind spell at the two minions who had been approaching Drake and the bard alongside their boss. And critted again(despite rolling at a disadvantage for attacking twice in a round). They went flying out through the windows instead, which thankfully for the barkeep had been open due to the nice weather outside.

    The remaining minions proved no problem, with the barbarian cleaving one, the mage turning another to ash, and Drake simply demoralizing the last one so bad he just trudged off without trying anything further.

    Heck of a way to start a campaign!

  13. Considering getting the Nimble 5e softback books pack currently available via backerkit

    Am in the UK, does anyone know if it will incur any additional customs / tax charges on top of standard shipping costs ?

  14. Youtube algorithm has been pushing this Nimble 5e thing to me today. And I gotta say, this is the most interesting 5e-compatible 5e-alternative rule I've seen so far. Other such rules seem to have replaced 5e's bloat with their own set of bloats, but this one looks like it might actually be more streamlined.

    I'm intrigued.

  15. I have a video series called Finding My Next Favorite TTRPG. With each video, I look at another fantasy game system.

    In the latest video, I looked at everything we know about Nimble 5e: youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRU

  16. I'm proud to announce that the require dsl has shipped in Nimble 13.1.0!

    I've found this to be a very natural way to express "I need this assertion to pass before the test continues", in a dsl that's very familiar to users (it works very similar to Nimble's expect dsl).

    I'm looking forward to the amount of duplicated code in test that this will remove.

  17. I've been working to add require to Nimble, an assertion which throws if it fails, and returns the result of the expression asserted on. Inspired by the Require macro from swift-testing.

    If you're interested, I'd love feedback! The linked PR works, but I'm still dogfooding it and it overall needs to be cleaned up (and documented 😳).

  18. Testing out the new GoPro Hero11 Black Mini. Losing 20-30 grams off the front of a 3.5" cinewhoop is very noticeable! Flies so nice with the 1100mah battery.
