They are very strict on what sort of content goes there, though.

What RPG rules would you use for Brancalonia instead of D&D? in c/rpg@ttrpg.network
[–] Scallops@ttrpg.network 2 points 1 month ago

Cortex Prime. Extremely hackable, nearly impossible to break. Powerful to reinforce flavor with mechanics (which is what I think you're going after). Simple mechanics (if you don't go ham with the Mods).

Also might want to consider having 2 referees. The party will split, and this would keep things moving.

Mark of the Odd games (Into the Odd, Mausritter, Into the Bronze, etc.). Extremely fast character creation, the rules so light they're almost not there, very few rolls, very deadly rolls.

He's got the lobes for business.

This is an LLM not. Look at its post history. It's using your answers to train itself to promote a product.

The font and color scheme are very much on point. Traditionally fuel would be marked, but everyone knows all the nooks available are used for fuel, so I don't mind the omission.

Zozer Games' excellent survival horror sci-fi RPG is available on BoH. Everything you need to run and play and more for under $10 or a full set of books for a little over $20.

And they have created a new bundle with extra goodies! Head over for the Hostile Hot Zones bundle to check it out! Going for $13 or $26 depending on choice.

Together with the Starforged bundle ($15, 3 days left), it's a good month to spend on sci-fi RPGs!

Largest "Small Craft"

Currently working on designs for some larger "small craft". variant Shuttles, a Marine Dropship, and a larger Marine Assault Carrier. The dropship is 40 dton, and the shuttle variants are 100, 200, and 500 dtons, the assault carrier is probably 400 dtons. What is the range of small craft in your Traveller universe?
