The Maze of Mothric, with characters' starting locations. I'm playing Basic Fantasy RPG with a few supplements to turn it into a solo fantasy hexcrawl in the world of Eilobar, a doomed land entering its end times. I'm using the Level 0 Character Tumbler , Hexcrawl Aventures and also 47 Critical Hit Tables to Spice Up Your Game . Starting with level 0 characters I'm attempting to keep them alive long enough to level up from -100 to 1 XP and become actual heroes. Introduction After the second TPK last time I looked into using Scarlet Heroes . It sounds like it boosts the player characters in strength quite a bit and makes them much more deadly against enemies in order to be playable with a smaller party of 1-3 heroes. This means it's not ideal for a level zero character tumbler adventure (since PCs are much less squishy), so I decided to use BFRPG for the tumbler and then level up the survivors into level 1 Scarlet Heroes afterward. Let's get on with it. The m
Introduction Hello! I haven't been very active on the blog lately due to spending time making the Dungeon Crawl Classics campaign videos for the YouTube channel . However there are some gaming projects I want to do that are probably more suited to this written format, like learning to play Hostile from Zozer Games. I'm already learning DCC while making the videos for it, so I'd like a break from taking long pauses on camera going "Errr... Let me just find the page for thief criticals". I've been thinking for a while about doing a playthrough of the film Alien in Hostile. Why Hostile and not the Alien RPG? Because I already own it, and I am broke. A couple of years ago I randomly found a Reddit post by a guy who adapted the film into a scenario for Alien RPG and ran it for his wife and son who weren't familiar with the film. It was really entertaining and I haven't dug it up in preparation because I don't want it to influence me. More recently Pau
The Tarantula Nebula (NASA/JPL-Caltech/Cornell University and University of Leiden) Introduction I recently bought the Cepheus Deluxe rulebook print on demand edition from Drivethru RPG. It's a pretty good quality book with a nice weight to the pages. The cover art looks pixellated though, like it was made at 72 DPI and low resolution, and the layout design leaves something to be desired, with a "futuristic" font for headings that really just makes it look dated. In my day job I'm a motion graphic designer so I'm a bit of snob when it comes to these things, but the book is structured well and the rules are easy to read. You also get a character sheet, ship sheet, blank sector and subsector maps, planet sheet, and character creation worksheet that you fill in during character generation. I've also got the Bounty Hunter Handbook by Moontoad Publishing so I wanted to try making a solo bounty hunter character. I just finished a few sessions of solo Cepheus Engine
