I'm on the hunt for Carved from Brindlewood things. Do you have a game, a mystery, AP, review, or not-so-secret fifth thing? I want it! "But it's not well made..." I want it. "It's only a 30-second video..." I.WANT.IT. "It's only a link with no art..." I want it all! forms.gle/oM1fMX2e1h9s...

Dear manager, this week I: 1) I didn't think about my lady. 2) I know that sounds kinda mean. 3) But me and my old lady had fallen into the same old dull routine. 4) So I wrote to the paper, took out a personal ad. 5) And though I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't half bad.

Quick reminder that the ashcan of STEP RIGHT UP, my RPG set in Dust Bowl Oklahoma in the 1930s, is available for playtesting. Players are performers in a small truck show carnival facing troubles mundane and supernatural. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I see Luigi, but this meme belongs to Amos.

Some images I made for an imaginary Dino Crisis remake. One can dream.

This is how it’s done.

Remember how I said you could expect this sometime this month? Well... I've had some delays--mostly really good things that I don't think I'm at liberty to discuss yet--but who shows up to a party on time anyway? Expect the Aperitivo Edition of PARADISO ROSSO this Spring (if all goes well).

So an open threat against a sovereign state. Where are all my “state’s rights” people?

We hit both Session #20 AND the Siege of El Paso today. Lots of twists and turns. youtu.be/0QKauBd9Qj0?...

Wes Anderson's No Country for Old Men

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

The Mastermind for my CfB pirate game (the Isle Beyond the Mists) is the Ghost of Henry Morgan. Here is @rapidpunches.itch.io depiction of the rascal:

The Year of Podcasts keeps marching on for The Gauntlet! We have new episodes of Fear of a Black Dragon and The Darkened Threshold out today. Links and details in the replies!

He’s been co-POTUS for 4 weeks. Not even a month. And they’re already calling for the likely future leader of the Democratic Party—a nonwhite woman—to be put in a cage. Twitter has many tweets like the one below. Everyone needs to understand: America is on very limited time now. Fascism is here.

what's your sign?

Let's help get Wes out of DC! 🫡

You might be wondering who that Chaotic fellow that keeps on getting mentioned on Gauntlet podcasts? It's me! Also, I'm probably just continuing to be an S&K regular.

I have a couple of things in the second issue of Sprigs & Kindling: sprigsandkindling.com Both are threats for the Between. "The Night Belongs to the Horde" and the playbook threat for @carrion-comfort.com 's the Prisoner, "St. Joseph of Cupertino Society of Space."

Volume 2 of Sprigs & Kindling, the Carved from Brindlewood fanzine, is out TODAY. This issue features 100+ pages of awesome stuff for The Between, and is 100% FREE. I interviewed Amanda Mullins, one of the zine's creators, for The Gauntlet Podcast (2nd Edition), which is also up! Links to follow.

It’s here! Volume 2 of Sprigs and Kindling, and this time is a whopping 146 pages of free stuff dedicated to The Between by @gauntletrpg.bsky.social! A huge thanks to @iamatrex.com and everyone on the team who pushed to get this huge issue out

Last week we launched The Gauntlet Podcast (2nd Edition)! In this first episode, @carrion-comfort.com and I talk about Dance of the Damned, a game inspired by Masque of the Red Death, and then talk about what we’d do if we were making a 2E of it.

I'm reading Public Access and I absolutely love the "turn a Key" mechanic. A frequent issue in TTRPGs is the sequence of events for rolling / narrating / using bonuses. By having the GM narrate the first result, THEN turning the Key to a better result, you solve this issue and provide player agency

Well. Yes.

The only playbook for the Isle Beyond the Mists that has not been playtested is the Stowaway. They are a child who snuck aboard the ship and in fact telling this story to their grandchildren in the distant future. Here they are depicted by Rapidpunches with Ivan from their Bodyguard move.

In Unsinkable, play a faith leader who dedicated their life to serving others, and then the one moment you opened your heart to sin, you were smitten. Turns out your beloved who is on the ship with you as your "assistant" is actually a demon in disguise. Share your bed and survive if you can.
