We finally overcame the curse and got 1st 2026 #SotWW RPG last night.
@sensiblearchie.bsky.social gave us a nice urban dungeon, @sashette.bsky.social and @antporter.bsky.social killed rats, @xneardark.bsky.social brought the style, and my divination mage actually contributed to combat. Vaguely.

Since @thedicemechanic.bsky.social has called off tonight's SotWW game I'll have to exasperate him in some other way.

Another #SotWW pdf dropped yesterday, and realised I've now got three in the To Read pile. Schwalb is so unbelievably productive!
Fortunately we're on hiatus now til January, so I've got time to read and begin scheming...

Oh crap. Another SotWW book to read. It's intimidating how much Rob Schwalb produces!

Entirely entertaining evening of SotWW with @thedicemechanic.bsky.social @xneardark.bsky.social @sensiblearchie.eurosky.social
Some downtime in the city of thieves which saw us realise we had come cash and so go and spend it!

I feel that with this week's #ttrpg session of Shadow of the Weird Wizard, I've found my groove with Falen and properly inhabited her.
She was a short notice replacement when I realised The Mirror, Cracked (SotWW elves are eldritch and terrifying) wasn't going to work with the campaign and party.

Something like WFRP is set up so that can realistically happen, over time.
D&D/PF/SotWW etc are terrible for it, as you gain power quite drastically with some or every level increase.

ok, after 35 years out of the game, I committed to running a RPG campaign in early 2025. SOTWW - been delving in Obsidian to try and make it all make sense... events, NOC, rumours, locations, items, #TTRPG #SOTWW #OMGWhatHaveIDone

Pleasant evening catching up on reading @theschwalb.bsky.social Kickstarter adventures for #SotWW
Great read and superb campaign inspiration, as ever.
No question. I'm gonna have to run a 2nd campaign at some point.

Progress on the #ShortStirling build for #HeaviesGB is 'glacial'. Lots of other stuff going on, not least prepping a #SotWW campaign on Roll20 (first time), oh, and work.
But continuing on the wings. Cut outs for lights. #HistScaleModels

Woke up a bit early. Decided to download a couple of new SotWW pdfs.
An hour later I finished downloading various pdf's I'd previously bought to my RPG folders 😁

Excellent game of SotWW last night with @xneardark.bsky.social @antporter.bsky.social and @thedicemechanic.bsky.social in which the Harren joined the Thieves Guild, Cassius burnt down a flophouse, and Aldex has a surfeit of enchanted swords.

In @thedicemechanic.bsky.social's SotWW game I've very deliberately presented every instance of "search the bodies" as either a method to find out more information about enemy motives, or to identify victims and if there's anything to be passed on to loved ones or temples by us.

Another fun #SotWW session with @antporter.bsky.social @xneardark.bsky.social and @thedicemechanic.bsky.social
In which our heroes demonstrated impressive teamwork and Cassius revelled in the opportunity to exercise his skills. The others hit things VERY hard.

Had to cancel session 2 of SotWW - all hands on deck to help 13yo who ended up with two wires and a plaster cast for what looked like an innocuous minor finger break.
This always happens. How does anyone get to play every week? It's just impossible!

You went all in? Excellent! I intentionally never read the adventure in the starter set. I suspect the grimmer feel of Dragonbane may be closer to your sweetspot than the heroics of SotWW

SotWW thus far tonight:
"We're so far off the rails?"
"Excuse you, we're entirely on mission and in-character!"
"His arse IS the plan!"

Had to cancel SotWW session again. Work this time.
I had months of free evenings with no game.
As soon as I get a game going, shit happens.

Next week, we learn if SotWW is as forgiving to PCs as the 1st fight suggested, or whether 16 goblins > 4 drugged up bandits.

Seems I missed out on one of the SotWW PDF scenarios.
Sent message to Rob Schwalb via Kickstarter. Almost immediate response with link to free copy.
The man is an absolute gem.

I offered my SotWW players a lucky point for writing up the last session.
No-one did, so I'm going to do it and claim that luck point for the Goblin chief. That's fair, right?
