OSR Christmas: Day 1 Winner

Bygamingballistic

For the first day of Christmas, the random number generator says . . . Edwin Nagy!

He’ll get to choose between Lost Hall of Tyr and Dungeon Grappling . . . because it’s not like I’m running out of PDFs any time soon.

Anybody that did NOT win – 26 more folks that left a comment today – will be rolled forward each day for the PDF awards.

I would appreciate a fresh comment if you’re interested in a physical product. The first one, on the 16th, will be a copy of Dungeon Grappling.

Merry Christmas!

A friend of mine forwarded this to me, taken at Source Comics and Games in the Twin Cities. A whole rack, all mine! Dragon Heresy prominently displayed, plus both of the new Dungeon Fantasy RPG products! I think I need to go there and get a selfie of, as a Discordian put it, my “nice…

A Superior Training Sword for Me? I was perusing the Sword Buyer’s Guide list of swords under $300; I’m always on the lookout for less expensive training swords that my classmates and I can consider for use once we pass our first rank test, from Karl to Vikingr. Yah, Viking-style fighting: sword-and-shield, spear-and-shield, axe-and-shield, etc….

Dungeon Grappling: Tower of Justice So, I ran the Con Scenario that was shorthanded Grappling Smackdown but is formally called The Tower of Justice.

Viking Training Sword Modification

When I’m not doing publishing, I do other things. One of those things is some obscure HEMA – Viking-style shield-and-weapon fighting. My group (Asfolk, in MN) tries to work with equipment that’s as similar to historical weight and manufacture as is feasible, and then we work on things from there. I got into it after…

Magical Weather: The Sunderstorm

This morning, my 6yo said, through a mouthful of hard-boiled egg, that “th’ sunderstorm woke me up last night.” She is quite articulate normally, but no one is really articulate – or neat – through a mouthful of eggs. Even so…that mispronunciation was interesting. D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder both have a several-step process for damaging…

Festival of the Week?

Bygamingballistic

I am having *ridiculous* fun writing festivals for the Hall of Judgment setting and adventure. Why festivals? They’re a great way to introduce a party of adventurers to a new town and culture. There can be competitions, roleplaying, interesting customs, intrigue, rumors, and exposition. Why so many festivals? So you don’t have to force a…
