Game was really well packed. LotFP box is stuffed with awesome. Three books, character sheets and tiny set of dice including two d10s. Other is for rolling d100. Cover art is stunning. At first I didn't like Referee cover picture but it is actually pretty old-school in a good way. Normal set of dice left, LotFP dice right. Comparing LotFP book size with a random encounter (Dungeons & Dragons Player's Handbook 3.0) Back covers of LotFP books are stuffed with handy tables. Layout is really simple and easy to read (even though some headline fonts are a little unclear). Both black & white a... more »

Finished Fallout 3, finishing Fallout inspired RPG

Thaumiel Nerub at Cradle of Rabies - From role to games - 4 weeks ago
Finished playing Fallout 3 yesterday. I had four weeks break playing it and only played it for two hours yesterday and got ending credits. What a bummer! It felt like it ended suddenly. That's what I get having a break playing a game. Anyways, wanted to continue so I bought and downloaded Broken Steel. Broken Steel continues two weeks after main game and new level gap is 30. Back to exploring and avoiding main quest for now. Anyways, playing Fallout 3 inspired me a lot. I wanted to create! So I decided I'd make a roleplaying game inspired by Fallout 3. My first draft was too complic... more »

Started reading d20 Dialectic blog (you commented my post and I checked who you are and liked your blog) found that funny little banner with wizard shooting spell what reads OSR! Curiously I opened the link and got to http://campaignwiki.org/planet/ (Old School RPG Planet). Started checking it out and... OH my dear God! I have accidentally spammed it's RSS feed! Sorry guys!

[LotFP] Character dies... my solution

Thaumiel Nerub at Cradle of Rabies - From role to games - 4 weeks ago
My style of gamemastering is about adventures and characters. My player is focused on her character. If character dies adventure dies with it. You can roll new character and continue with small briefing but my player wouldn't like that. Tough, someone might think. But that's the way it is. Starting LotFP I was a bit nervous of character death. My player is not that interested in fantasy adventuring (weird or not) so I was afraid that if her character dies she looses interest. Tough you might think but I want to play weird adventures. So I had to find a solution. When character sho... more »

My own OSR logo

Thaumiel Nerub at Cradle of Rabies - From role to games - 4 weeks ago
I have found OSR basically late last year and the beginning of this year and wanted to add OSR logo on my site. But I thought it is not right. I am no OSR veteran... So I created my own OSR logo. Here it is. Pretty cool, eh?
