An interesting read why the people behind #TroikaRPG now do their own DIY crowdfunding: https://www.melsonia.com/blogs/news/diy-crowdfunding #TTRPG #OSR

And now you can buy a copy of The Gardens of Ravandos Xarr on LULU

I plan on running Barkeep on Borderlands in the near future (like half a year from now, minimum, considering our pace) and also maybe try again with some #NSR campaign but for the love of me I don't know which system to choose.

BotB will probably go on Troika! as I want to finally test it. And then? #DURF #cairnrpg #Cairn2e #Octave or #TroikaRPG are my contenders for this experiment, somewhat more epic campaign in low power mid weirdness fantasy.

OK, ho pubblicato l'avventura che ho scritto per la one-shot di Troika! della settimana scorsa. Prevedo un bel POD illustrato in futuro, ed anche una versione inglese. https://artikid.itch.io/i-giardini-di-ravandos-xarr

It is one thing to interact with a hostile stellar arthropod, another thing entirely to interact with a philosophizing stellar arthropod.
So, for the right mood, the Mien table is more important perhaps than the ability scores.

By embrac8ng these two simple concepts I was able to run the most surreal gaming session I ever had, and the most entertaining -and surprising- for all involved in a long time.

Point 2 i(perhaps even more important for emergent play): Even something as horrible as the Loathsome Worm That Will Consume The Sun is rather rarely violently hostile.
And NPCs are not just "friendly, hostile, neutral'.
They are suspicious, distracted, wild, careless, depressed, pompous, hungry, meditative, needy...
This is not merely aesthetics, as you'll discover if you indulge the system as it deserves.

Some post-session thoughts about Troika!
1. Don't underestimate or ignore the absurdity of backgrounds
2. It pays a lot not to script NPC reactions and rely on a creature's Mien Table..

I dare say that with the right combination of the two, half the game is done.

Point 1: an enterprising player will try to use their skills however unlikely. Juust like with equipment: give a player's character cheese and they will find a way to use it to defeat the Goblin King.

Just prepping my #TroikaRPG session for #SommerCon in #Osnabrück next week. I will run #ActiveTimeEvent!!! , and the players can choose from backgrounds like "His Eminent Dopeness, Lil’ Starchild," "Battlebitch," "Irrational Believer in the Simulationist Conspiracy," and the "Obligatory Cutesy Mascot." I am just wondering what I got myself into... a lot of weird fun, I guess.

Es werden übrigens noch Spielleiter:innen für die #Con in #Osnabrück am 17./18. August gesucht! Ich leite dort seit einiger Zeit und finde das Publikum toll ☺️ Ich bin selber mit #ForbiddenPsalm , #TroikaRPG und meinem #OnePageRPG #TheBigChallenge am Start. #PnPde https://rubicon-osnabrueck.de/rundenanmeldung/

CHE FINE HA FATTO BELLADONNA MORTSAFE?

Stasera sto finendo una one-shot di “Troika!”, avventura “Ricercata: Belladonna Mortsafe”, iniziata a CapodannoCon 2023/2024, in cui @dismasterfrane gioca come GM.

Sto giocando il background della Spadaccina in Sottogonna e ho chiesto a Bing Image Creator di creare un ritratto per il PG.

Labyrinth: The Adventure Game is the most gorgeous #ttrpg book I've picked up. I'm a little scared to run it because it is very #osr rules-lite but my wife LOVES Labyrinth and I couldn't resist. Someone suggested running it with #troikarpg, tempting since I just received the Troika! supplement, Acid Death Fantasy.

Bought the #Grok?! #TTRP pdf as it was on sale. It's absolutely gorgeous looking. Tempted to buy the reasonably priced book too. The system itself looks really good it's floating around the #Bastionland / #TroikaRPG sweetspot that I'm always finding myself in. Will probably try and run some Grok?! online soon, is anyone #lfg? 😁
