Nostalgia Trip: D&D B/X

I've been feeling extremely nostalgic lately about some of the games in my collection, both physical and digital.  In particular I've been paging through the cover-less copy of the D&D Rules Cyclopedia a very old friend gave me back in junior high school (circa 1994?).

Outward Bound 1: Post-Diaspora Earth

I'm going to switch gears and write some posts about a custom sci-fi setting for awhile. You'll want to use a system such as Traveller (any flavor really), Cepheus Engine, Stars Without Number, or Thousand Sons.

Campaign Settings: Buy-In

The World VI: Interesting Places in Galedon

Since one of Godbound's main conceits, setting-wise, is that the world was broken into pieces I kept that idea when working out my own setting.  This particular piece of the multiverse is called Galedon and I thought today I'd share some of its more interesting places.

The World V: The Arts of Magic

There's high magic (known as theurgy in Godbound's rules) and there's low magic.  While the standard traditions exist in The World, they're slightly different and have some new kin.

The World II: The Godbound

Now to go into the various kinds of Godbound that inhabit the World.  Unless otherwise noted, the rules for these Godbound are found in the deluxe version of the rules.  Any changes to their mechanics are noted immediately after the entry.

The World I: An Overview

I've been running a Godbound campaign for a few weeks now and I must say I'm enjoying it.  Sine Nomine Publishing produces a free version of the rules, though I recommend the deluxe version for its expanded material.  While the default setting is cool, I like adding my own twists as usual.  I threw in chunks of Exalted and Nobilis with some of the key defaults for Godbound, as well as some ideas of my own.  Here's the premise piece and a tiny mechanical change from the default assumptions of Godbound.

Playing Catchup (1-28-2019)

Yeah so it's been awhile!  Have a deluge of photos of miniatures I've completed since March last year.  I also decided to strip all my Space Shark Primaris models clean and repaint them as Ultramarines.  Something just kind of vaguely didn't sit right with Carcharodon Primaris.
