I've released the Outdoor Survival Scaffolder - a tool that automatically generates lairs, monsters and treasure based off the terrain of the classic OD&D wilderness map! It's still WIP, but has been an enormous undertaking so far - I hope it's of use! chaoclypse.itch.io/outdoor-surv...

Yochai was the first person ever to share one of my blog posts. It was a huge early confidence boost & I owe him a debt of gratitude. He does a hell of a lot for this hobby community & I think he deserved a lot better.
