Jason Cordova suggested I move this question here instead of Twitter. The question is also for Ray Otus but I couldn’t figure out how to add him.
On Twitter I asked “@rayotus and @GauntletRPG I am going to be running the abstract dungeon with the dragon from Discern Realities Annual. How many steps aka 6- rolls till the dragon finds the party instead of the party finding the dragon? Say one efficient 4 hour session.”
Jason asked for clarification and I replied.
“Yeah, you had your abstract dungeon with the vampire but you listed Ray’s plundergrounds version as well. “When you navigate the dungeon roll +INT” the 6 or less option was the dragon gets a step closer plus whatever hard move the GM choses.
Just six more days until we launch the Codex Vol. 1 Kickstarter. Today I am delighted to show you the mock-up of the final book. The cover illustration is by the talented Claudia Cangini.

Just in time for Halloween season, Tom McGrenery and I are back with a horror-themed episode of Fear of a Black Dragon. The module we’re covering is Tales of the Scarecrow. During The Expert Delve, we’re talking about how to sell horror at the roleplaying game table!
I’ve been playing RPGs since the early 80s but I have never really gotten into playing table top RPGs online.

Over the past few years I’ve fallen in love with Dungeon World and PBtA games, and this seems to be the best community around these games. Also I’ve heard on podcasts you do online play as well as in person.
Where would you recommend I start for online play? Are there some articles or podcast episodes that act as a basic introduction to the process?
Sorry if this is inappropriate for me to post, this may be one of my first posts and I’m still feeling out the group.
We are also excited to announce that, after much number-crunching (and basically moving heaven and earth) we are able to offer the hardcover book for a much lower price than originally planned. Now, the standard pledge tier is just $50. The early bird pledge tier (the one for Patrons that doesn’t include PDFs) is just $35 (!!!). The latter will be in short supply, so be sure to keep an eye out for when the campaign launches on October 2nd!
Hi! I heard people around here like World of Dungeons. A while back I asked myself, “What if World of Dungeons, but make it Traveller?” and then things got way out of hand:
Hello everyone. Does anyone know a cool video, podcast or blog post that is suitable to introduce newcomers to Monsterhearts 2 and/or Monster of the Week. I want to promote the games on a Con in Germany.
