Bundle Watch - May 12, 2026 - Traveller, 5e Kobold Press, and Solos!
Posted: Tue, 12 May 05:00:02
I made it! There and back and through a work conference! I had the privilege of running some RPGs on vacation, and had a great time trying the Twilight Sword WIP Core Rulebook. That took a bit of reframing - I'm not use to videogame style logic of magical monsters without much reason for being except being bad!
So, let's catch up on the bundlerooskies!
As a reminder, I cover bundles from Monday last week to this last Sunday so I can draft the post in advance. I'll cover yesterday's bundle's next week.
Bundle of Holding
:kF::ki::kr::ks::kt:<< these are the links Runs from 4/27/2026 to 5/18/2026
It's May again, and that means it's time for more Traveller bundles! I'm going to cover the new one, and link to the other re-offers at the bottom, since I was away and am catching up.
This new bundle features books to source material from regarding the Third Imperium's Imperial Navy. This single tier bundle is priced at $15 USD, and includes The Imperial Navy sourcebook, Element Class Cruisers book, along with blueprints and the Naval Campaign sourcebook; and four naval adventures.
Also available (these I've covered before):
Traveller Update Bundle
Traveller Mercenaries Bundle
Traveller Great Rift Bundle
Journal of the Travellers' Aid Society Bundle
:kS::ke::kc::ko::kn::kd: Runs from 5/4/2026 to 5/20/2026
Next up is the Critical Kit Solos bundle collecting 1- and 2-player games by Tim Roberts at Critical Kit Ltd. These popular solo games only require the book, pen and paper, and 2d6!
This single tier collection costs $13 for Be Like a Cat, Be Like a Crow, five Crow expansions - Crowthulhu, Feathers of Fjorgyn, A Fistful of Feathers, Korvus, and Tales from the Crow's Nest; as well as d666, a solo dungeon building RPG.
Humble Bundle
:kF::ki::kr::ks::kt: Runs from ❓ to 5/23/2026
Humble dropped a 5e focused bundle while I was away, featuring a bunch of good stuff from Kobold Press. There's a lot of adventures here, and also some setting stuff and Creature Codex, a nice monster book I have in print!
I'm a fan of Kobold Press's monster books, and I've had my eye out for a few other titles here, so you can bet I'll be picking this one up. I don't think tiers 1 and 2 are all that great, so my advice is probably skip those and either get the full bundle or pass for now.
Be aware, if this matters to you, that redemption is through DriveThruRPG. This is welcome for me, but I know others might have preferences for one store or another. I don't recall KP items from Humble going through DtRPG before, so I wanted to call it out.
Tier 1 - 4 total items - $3
Warlock: Fey Courts
Warlock: Elves
Warlock Lair 9: Returner's Tower

I DM’d you about a couple of games in your For Trade list.
I saw, someone beat you to the punch on both, but negotiations are still happening. I'll get with you shortly. 🙂

Anybody winning 2+ auctions of mine will get 10% off your total order.
My BGG collection is like 99% up to date; if I have anything under "for trade" you're interested in, let me know via DM. Because we're trying to clear out space, trades are a little counter productive. (Use filters to make it easy on yourself.)

I need to get into some sci-fi gaming myself and play my way. :laugh:
Maybe I should get to work on that.

There is something to be said for not bothering with rolling for things that should be fairly routine. Maybe those tiny chances of something unexpected could be handled another way? Maybe like a scene interrupt in Mythic? Or would that be too extreme? Or maybe just not rolling for them every time? I dunno. 🙂I need to get into some sci-fi gaming myself and play my way. :laugh:

The weird part is that sdonohue previously rolled d107 = 37 ( ) of them will swear the others don't deserve medals.

Just here to state that The One Ring is awesome and worth getting, IMO.
