Just because I'm doing two big supplements for @ostermade.bsky.social's MG2e jam, it doesn't mean I've forgotten about #SHELL-ttrpg; playtesting is just taking way longer than I thought.

There are 12 unique weapons in MG2e, each with a unique fantasy and combat loop. I've had many Monster Hunter fans tell me how much the weapon in MG2e feels just like their favorite weapon from Monster Hunter, which is maybe the best feedback I've ever received.

Yesterday I started to run, with my family game group, The Secrets of the Ancients for #Traveller Mg2E. We had pretty much a session zero with a little touch of the story, a session a half, if you will.

One of my big goals for MONSTER GUTS 2e was to increase the "connective tissue" (thanks @ostrichmonkey.bsky.social) in the game. This goal influenced pretty much every single aspect of the second edition, but I think it's most visible in the Scavenger Creation section. #MG2e #MONSTERGUTS2e #ttrpgs

I've been generally very disappointed with the quality of spaceship-related content in the current (Mg2E) edition of Traveller.
For example this particularly uninspired deckplan. Was this really worth the page space? Has the artist never been on an airliner or train?

It's no secret that MONSTER GUTS 2e takes a lot of inspiration from the Monster Hunter series, and one of the design goals of MG2e is to mirror the gamefeel of the weapons from MonHun. Let's talk about how I did that with the Greatsword. #MONSTERGUTS2e #MG2e #MonsterHunter #indiettrpg #ttrpgdesign

"Okay, let's hunt this monster"
"Wait, why is it already beat up?"
"Okay we killed it--OH GOD THERE WAS ANOTHER MONSTER INSIDE OF IT AAAAAAAA-"
It's a good time 😁

I had an absolute blast running it for the both of you, and I'd happily do it again! (tbh, I might be cooking up some plans for a whole MG2e campaign AP in the new year)
I almost never do follow up skeets about a stream but
1) This game was so much fun to play, I'm absolutely gonna run more of it in the future
2) Go follow the backerkit

This is honestly one of the coolest parts of MG2e; the monsters represent the greed, cruelty, and other worst parts of humanity, and lets you go beat them to a pulp.
Designing 3p monsters for it is great: pick a part of society you hate, make a monster around it, and watch players take it apart.

MONSTER GUTS 2e gives a face and flesh to our modern
ghosts, the horrible, bodiless, seemingly inexorable forces that
plague our world, and tells you to go kill them, cut them up,
salvage the useful, and repurpose the rest.
Happy Hunting, scavengers.
