We're live with the Guild of Icons' second campaign: Heavensfall!
They called it the children's war, a name that sounds quaint, like child's play. For you, the lives you took were real. The collapsing cities were real. The losses were real.
A Draw Steel adventure starring @GoblinHellion @BisectedBrioche @SuperTaliaDX @PixelPodium Ben Newbon, and me :)
20 hours to go to become the monster you've always dreamed of. And then punch in for your adventurer-slaying entry level job at Dungeon, Inc., the greatest corporate megadungeon of all the land!
Missed UPLIFT when it was live? The finale is out now, and the full playlist is complete!
Our High Magic Lowlives AP about getting so high you get magical powers. Full of chaos and comedy!

We're live with UPLIFT!
Our High Magic Lowlives campaign, and it's FINALE time!
The party return to where it all began to try to work out *why* it all began, *how* it all began or even *who* it all began.
Tonight!
The mormons have psionics.
The state of Utah has been alchemically transformed into drugs.
One of the party is literally a rat.
And they now converge on where it all began.
UPLIFT - the wildest Actual Play you'll ever see - concludes tonight at 20:30 UTC on https://twitch.tv/hiscursedness
Na dzisiejszej sesji moje graczki:
1. Negocjowały z pijanym polegergeistem
2. Zebrały pieniądze na budowę kaplicy i zdefraudowały je żeby iodkupić mówiącego konia z kopalni.
3. Zaczarowały rasistowsko-sadystycznego drowa i żeby został ich przyjacielem i podarowały mu stringi pólelfiej arystokratki.
4. Wybrały się do opery.
Było wiele radości.

This weekend was supposed to be the weekend we restart our hombrew #BasicRoleplaying campaign, after the holiday. BUT im about to be slappened with plan altering winter weather a second time. ( We rarely get more than a dusting of snow out here, so inches of snow or more shuts down everything and makes a lot impassable. )
Atleast the Call of Cthulhu campaign dodged two freak winter storms. #ttrpg #NotDnD
Been kicking the tires on #Drawsteel via an online webcam game. AND its a serviceable system, and im going to tough it out through this mini campaign I think. BUT the system isn't for me per se. It's well constructed but not to my tastes.
I keep coming back to the fact that im tracking waaaay too many meta currencies in combat AND It's also feels very much like a "combat first and often" system, and im a combat-light guy. #ttrpg #NotDnD but kinda #DungeonsAndDragons
Ran my first session of Draw Steel, using the Delian Tomb intro adventure. I sense a lot of the D&D 4E DNA in this game, which is what I am looking for. Everyone seemed to enjoy it, and I am looking forward to our next session.
Very fun #CallOfCthulhu game. Started off with our investigators meeting up with a spirtualist con artist who was freaked out one her seances had worked.
Ended with them stealing an "Odic Energy Regulator" from Arkham University, after realizing all this poltergeist activity was kinda centered on it.
Now they just have to figure out what the hell to do with it. ( Turning it off, smashing it or letting it keep running are all bad ideas in very different ways...)
Spinning back up our regular #CallOfCthulhu game today. Our first session after the holidays. Really pumped for the investigation ive got planned for the players. Angling for a smaller but scarier case this go round. #Chaosium #BasicRoleplaying #ttrpg #NotDnD
I went back and forth on this for a bit. I loved Toon back in the day. I finally pulled the trigger in the last 48 hrs.

I see that Draw Steel is crowdfunding for 2026, & they are having backer-only polls. As someone who decided not to back, it is interesting that my opinion isn't being sought. Only those that already have bought in have opinions that matter. Seems like not the way to go to broaden your base.
2026 Gaming Wishlist*
● Play as a player.
● Play/GM the following games:
► Draw Steel
► Lancer
► D&D 4E
● Paint more Battletech minis.
● Play Battletech Alpha Strike.
● Play Car Wars Classic.
*Because fuck goals. Goals create expectations. Expectations create disappointment. Wishes are whimsical.
I see all these 2026 gaming goals posts, and wow are they exciting. Me? I'm lucky if I get to play:
● more than 1 RPG a year,
● something other than D&D or a D&D clone,
● more than biweekly,
● as a player instead of the GM.
As we age, it is harder to find that sense of wonder, of awe. Meanwhile, it is very difficult to find folks excited for the stuff that excites me.
2026? All I want is some joy in my hobby.
I've just published a silly setting for #RisusRPG games. It's a variant of Dan Suptic's Super-Happy-Go-Go-Fun-Time-All-World-Speedy-Good-Delivery-Service-Special-Force-Delta-Five.
I've run several fun games using Dan's setting, but was increasingly uncomfortable with the Mr. Kuri-kana-suro-san character, so my variant replaces him with a Yorkshireman named Horace Wainwright.
Surprise delivery today.
Which 3 TTRPGs were your intro, the one that made you fall in love and the one that opened your eyes to possibility.
Intro: D&D Basic Rules (1983)
Love: Star Wars (WEG 1E)
Opened my eyes: Vampire the Masquerade (2E)

The more I read and explore #LancerRPG, the more I want to run a full campaign of it. It scratches so many creative itches. Frankly, I am very burned out with GMing fantasy. I like the genre enough, just not as a GM.
Big stompy mecha in an original setting really sounds great.
