**Come here and talk about anything!**

This post will stay stickied for (at least) the week-end. Please enjoy this space where you can talk about anything: your last game, your current project, your patreon, etc. You can even talk about video games, ask for a group, or post a survey or share a new meme you've just found. This is the place for small talk on r/rpg.

The off-topic rules may not apply here, but the other rules still do. This is less the Wild West and more the Mild West. Don't be a jerk.

Hi all good people. I'm wondering what device do you use to view those wonderfully colorful rulebooks?
I'm sitting in front of a computer screen most of the day and use an older Kindle Paperwhite to read books offline, but this reader is not suited to pdf's at all, not to mention it has a black and white display.

So I'm pondering my orb purchasing either a reader with a colour display, or a tablet. And here comes my question - what works for you best?

EDIT: Thank you guys for the responses. Reading on my phone is too cumbersome, I'll search for a tablet.
Thanks a lot.

Hello, I've been playing fabula ultima, and having fights without maps (most stuff I've played used those for combat, like dnd or the wh40krpgs) is quite fun and interesting.

What other games with an emphasis on combat use those?

Of course more narrative focused games like VTM wouldn't use those, I mean games with a focus on combat, like dnd, pf or lancer.

Hey, folks. Back in the day I'd trawl ebay for used RPG books and often buy lots of 3 to 6 books. I went through a long stretch where I had no room to expand the collection so I've been out of the loop.

I went looking today and it's kind of a wasteland. Is there a new online marketplace for used RPG books? Or is it something where I'm going to have to drag myself to a bookstore every year or so and see what's to be seen?

Welcome one and all to a post where we can freely discuss the games that we have released or the games that we are making. Stop on by and maybe you'll find your new favourite RPG!

A bunch of us make cool shit, but the Indie RPG space is crowded and it can often be difficult to get the word out about why people should try out your game. That's why every week we try to focus on a different mechanic or setting to see how new RPGs can solve decades old problems or put new spins on old greivances!

"Okay, I'll tell you why I want to talk about cyberpunk rpgs, but I'll only tell you once. Wanna hear it?"

Whether its pulling off heists, fighting corps from the inside or just trying to survive in a neon-dystopia where you own nothing and aren't even happy about it, come tell us how your game (or just any game you really like) tackles Cyberpunk!

Thank you... me, for the suggestion!

As per mod approval, comments here do not count against rule 7 - comment as much as you want, answer as many questions as you need and discuss to your hearts content!

All that I would ask is that anyone who comments about their own system takes the time to look at the minimum at one other game in the comments and ask a question or provide feedback. Lively discussions are what get people interested and what keep people engaged!

Two weeks ago we talked about "Non-Western (Fantasy) Settings" and we got a few interesting systems introduced!

If you want to suggest a topic for future weeks, be sure to include "suggestion" in your comment so I can easily find it!

Hi folks, after running alot of fantasy, I’m looking for a pallete cleanser prewritten campaign. Not just any campaigns but ones that are really recommended.

Not fantasy but can be fantastical and preferably no magic (but something like one Mage in a party may work). I’m not looking for horror I don’t think, and could be campaigns for a specific rules or could be system neutral.

Basically what are some really good prewritten campaigns out there that could work with the following settings/vibe:

1. Pulp Adventure with Jungles, Dinosaurs or Undead: think Indiana Jones or The Mummy. I’m keen to convert Tomb of Annihilation but is there a campaign out there that will scratch the itch and save me the effort?
2. Steampunk City: Think Netflix Arcane or Gangs of New York: crime, technology and underworlds.
3. Aeronauts/Sailing: Think Treasure Planet or Atlantis the Lost Empire. Any great

Nautical campaigns

1. either in the Sea or Sky?
2. Dieselpunk Aeronauts: Similar to the above but more 30s/40s think Ghibli, Disney Talespin, Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. Biplanes and Zeppelins.

Looking forward to hearing your campaign suggestions!

A while back I bought the core and GM books for Pathfinder/Starfinder as a way to get into the hobby, and support Paizo when things were looking rough. Despite that, I find that I probably won't be running Pathfinder much in the future, as my friends didn't really enjoy it-and setting up the map in Foundry was a touch of a hassle. (Something I can learn with time, tbf.) But since then I've bought other books, Daggerheart, VtM, and DnD 5.5E (which I also don't run, my players prefer 5E and I only own the player book.)

But with yesterday's Modiphius sale, I took the time to pick up Dune: Adventures in the Imperium, funnily timed since I just finished the original novel. While I'm happy to have the book, and own something from Modiphius (my goal is to try and own at least one system from the 'well known' publishers, just for experience.) I don't think it'll see a lot of play at my current table, just due to their lack of interest in Dune, and the other games we have to run.

So as a curiosity thing...how many books do you own for systems you never run, or never plan on running? I think it's hard for me to internalize that as a hobby because of how expensive TTRPG books are compared to non TTRPG books, and it's kind of like viewing them as a 'practical play vs enjoyment' thing, which is a whole debate in and of itself.

I'm getting ready to run classic Alternity as a play-by-post game and I'm starting to question my choice, I'm wondering if there's a better game for SF or Space Opera? I have very fond memories of running Alternity in the 90's, and I like the lethality factor...but is it too lethal?

Now I know barely anything about Kult, and neither do my players. I just finished massive Mothership campaign and everyone, including me, want to take a break from Mothership. So I was browsing and buying some horror TTRPGs to try out with my players (Mork Börg, Vaesen and Etc.) and I came across Kult. To my knowledge, it's some sort of Religious, Dark Urban and Psychological TTRPG set in either a Modern, 1920s or Concrete Megastructure city. Now I was wondering on if somebody could tell me more about it, if there's any lore to it I know or just general tips or suggestions. If you do have any of these, please tell me.

So my last post seemed to have quite a few folks explaining the reason crowd funding platforms exist - not as retail stores but a place to basically get money for an idea to try and make that idea happen. I get it. It didn't change my opinion - but I get it.

Now I pose to you a different issue I would like to weigh in on:

How many of you like someone wanting money for a new project when they havnt delivered the first one or two they got funded for. For me it's a hard no. Even if that company has a good track record I think it's rather tacky.

Is it Just me?

What’s the best premade adventures or campaigns for a superhero game?
