Regular campaign on hold - leftover players request new day, open table, episodic play, simple rules that favor maximum mayhem and a grim flavor. Enter my own campaign’s sort of “DMG” for what will run on the @morkborg.com basic chassis.

I like scrawling my own covers for old classics.

Comic panels on company time.

Congrats to @castlegrief.bsky.social for overcoming some seriously costly and frustrating shipping logistics to get their game into our hands! An excellent batch of booklets including robust solo first play!

Beyond stoked. At long last, KAL-ARATH! ⚔️ @castlegrief.bsky.social

450% fully funded and counting after the first weekend. Here’s a look at page one of the intro comic to the new Kal-Arath zine - Tarus of Hessia is traveling to Kar’Eld for one thing only: revenge.

Tarvannion es un kit de herramientas de @castlegrief.bsky.social para gestionar un mundo de fantasía épica y oscura. Está gratuito en itch, y contiene reglas para gestionar un escenario y explorar un mapa hexagonal, y hoy lo reseño en Astrofork: astrofork.com/resena-tarva... #lodelrol #reseña

The new zine campaign is LIVE!! • Full color zine, opens with comic set in the brutal sword and sorcery world of Kal-Arath • New Pulp Mode for heroic ass-kicking in cinematic style • Tables, monsters, and much more! • Works on its own system or to use with your own!

Membership in the Black Legion is considered the greatest honor for a warrior in Kal-Arath. In order to join the ranks of Akkai’s elite shock troopers, one must fight and win in the great tournament in Kar’Eld held only once a year.

New piece and a first look at some comic panels open.substack.com/pub/castlegr...

Kal-Arath is a world of weirdness, where blood drunk monks serve demon Khans and war with martial arts and eldritch rites for dominion of the great steppe. www.kickstarter.com/projects/cas...

Kal Arath is such an evocative read, it's just as joyous to look through and brainstorm as it is to play. More of this is always better.

A new zine from @castlegrief.bsky.social for his amazing Kal-Arath is coming soon on Kickstarter 🔥 Go check it out ⚔️

Awe yeah, another Castle Grief book to add the library!

I have been playing Kal-Arath lately, and I can confirm that it is rad.

“There were rats, dad.” “Rats?” “Yeah, big ones.”

Got me dead to rights!

Working on a regional map entirely based on early 1990’s black metal bands, songs, and lyrics.
