The 12 Days of OSR Christmas: Day 2

Bygamingballistic

 

The OSR Christmas continues today.

Edwin Nagy was yesterday’s winner, and I gave him a choice of Lost Hall of Tyr or Dungeon Grappling – he chose Lost Hall.

I’ll offer the same choice to each winner – which of my (for the moment) two products do you want? Dungeon Grappling will suit if you really want all the options in it, or wish rules for Pathfinder and 5e along with your Swords & Wizardry.

Lost Hall is the newer product, and also contains a two-page Dungeon Grappling quick-start that will get you going on sensible grappling rules. As a GM, you’ll love what they do for your monsters. As a player, it’s a sensible extension of the usual combat rules that gives an axis of conflict resolution that doesn’t always result in dismemberment and escalation (but still can be used for such).

In any case: the plethora of electrons available in my inventory makes “winner’s choice” a sensible offer.

Merry Christmas!

Roleplay Rescue: Third Time Still the Charm

I joined Che Webster this morning on his Roleplay Rescue podcast. He’s in the UK, so the best time for us both was 6am for me, noon for him. It is, after all, a work day. This means there were a few times I lost the thread; too much blood in my caffeine stream. But…

Exploring HP variations in D&D

Bygamingballistic

I’m quite aware of the many, um, dynamic arguments about the concept of Hit Points in the various Dungeons and Dragons games. Are they physical injury (the answer seems to be ‘mostly not’)? Are they a good way to represent injury (jury out, but very, very heated)? Are they realistic (clearly not, nor are they…

Violent Resolution – Let’s Get Ready to Rumble (repost)

It’s perhaps old news to state that at the very least, the largest force in the tabletop RPGing market – Dungeons and Dragons in all its flavors – evolved from fantasy wargaming, and that combat is a huge part of the game, and therefore a huge part of roleplaying games in general. Gygax noted the…

    1. By commenting, you’re in. Each day I’ll do the random drawing, and if you come out on top, I’ll email you and offer you the choice of Dungeon Grappling/Lost Hall of Tyr in PDF. For physical product, tomorrow is Dungeon Grappling Day, the 19th is Lost Hall of Tyr, the 22nd is another Dungeon Grappling, and Christmas Day will see another copy of Lost Hall.

      The winners of the physical product will ALSO get the PDF, ’cause why not.

    1. Please keep coming by! But you don’t have to re-up to be considered for the drawing. Once you’re in, you’re in.
