T1 Smartsuit Mods


SF thing needed for reasons - mysteriously had some ideas i needed out of my head

Smartsuits are advanced clothing options mostly printable from standard universal printers with basic materials. The basic full-body suit and cap or hood are standard for exploration, ship crews, uniformed roles and even as a fashion status symbol. Available on any colony with basic universal 
first template technology level. Some mods may be restricted to law or millitary. They have +3AC or +2 without a cap or hood - any AC benefits are one less without headgear and you could be targeted in the head ignoring all benefits of AC. The basic model of suit is 1 ENC and modules and mods can easily be attached to upgrade it as needed.

Standard suit 3 mods
Elite suit mods 6 mods

I might come up with some common example setups for civilians, colonist, explorers, astronauts, millitary

T2 mods include maglev, energy screens, and energy weapons and require a nanite assembler not just a basic robot assembler or printer

T3 mods include anti-gravity flight, teleporters, storing items in subspace and stasis fields. options require molecular assembly and possibly subspace-made components. The most advanced powers can take note of devices like this being operated at all.

Money is mostly obsolete in most civilised places and goods are requisitioned from personal AI or workplace admins on a need-to-use basis. Fashion stuff is no problem. Some are criminal only and illegal or for professional spies. If your going into space more options become available. If you are a colonist or explorer different choices become available for wilderness survival. Millitary have their own versions which are limited or bootlegged by crime or outlaw colonies.

Carry on Local Weirdos & Creeps





































I'm probably slowing all my production doing other stuff. Will write again when I feel like it. I'm hoping to do a 3fold adventure at least a month on Patreon to keep it going without any charges this year. Possibly just watching 36 carry-on movies might have influenced this.

Every city has some colourful weirdo helping to make the city unique. Not professional or sacred like village idiots. These people are more interested in attending. Locals are familiar with these creeps and roll their eyes and look away mostly. Still as awful as they are locals and anyone harming them might anger a mob.


d12 Weirdo Secrets
1 Condition is curable with magic and they will dial down their antics if treated
2 Is a spy for some faction and in fact, is quite lucid playing the fool to be ignored
3 Actually an heir that the family are looking for - maybe they prefer to not be found
4 Is actually a cultist and this behaviour is part of some oath or pact
5 Performed some sin against the gods and this is their penance for redemption
6 They are actually a magician of some kind in secret
7 Actually a fairy creature or changeling in disguise
8 Has a family looking for them who want to take care of them
9 Escaped from a cruel dungeon for mentally ill patients run by someone awful
10 Is protected by spirits or a familiar or faeries
11 Was kidnapped by fairies as a slave and returned like this
12 Is from another plane or village where everyone like them

d12 Local reactions to Weirdo
1 Fondly thought of as a unique feature of the area
2 People ignore them like they are not even visible
3 Locals feed them and give them coins and old clothes
4 Children throw mud and cow poo at them and sing mocking songs
5 Bailifs will put in stocks or a cage occasionally if too annoying
6 Locals are ready to form an angry mob if any more trouble
7 Locals yell abuse at them and tell to go away
8 Locals debate if weirdo is good enough to be the official local idiot
9 Everyone thinks they are a harmless duffer to ignore
10 People buy them beer and like the looks visitors have when meeting a weirdo
11 Locals believe the character struck by faeries and not to blame for antics
12 Locals considering making a statue or memorial for the weirdo for the fame they bring

Mail Call


 



















A new lot of stuff arrived and I'm kind of buying less and reading what I have more. Ive been doing other creative stuff more of late like music and I'm in a band and probably blowing money on synthesizers and music gear for a while. I am reading what I have already more and lots of comics I'm behind on and hopefully, i get my new glasses and can read novels again. My retro collecting is almost done. A few more Dungeon Magazines Id like but mostly my collection is done. I almost had every cthulhu product ever but seem to have lost interest after playing since 1984. A few recent things I find repetitive and long-winded. Most of the fan-made items have poorish design and art and layouts though some do better.  RQ and glorantha feels quite dated and I'm less into the cultural plunder from the real-world approach and would rather play history or weirder games. The fandom of RQ and Cthulhu is also a factor in my increasing disinterest and both plunder indigenous beliefs quite a bit which I seem to be over. This might change either way. 

Ive been writing less and only doing a three-fold adventure a month without charging on Patreon this year. I did use quite a bit of AI on my last project and the RPG scene has turned on this kind of art and helped push me to write non-gaming stuff and other projects. I struggled to get up a book on LuLu and gave up. I've had more interest in my other non-gaming art projects from people which has had an effect. I think I did occasionally do spit the dummy posts about my lack of interaction in the past - this is more of a fizzle in my interest now.

But I have had a few new items arrive (and I still have a few KS things Im hoping for). Also Im reading new editions of Trigan Empire and finished a DC showcase of The Phantom Stranger - back when he was more enigmatic.

Warlock Traitors Edition 💓💓💓💥
This game gives me a fighting fantasy and early Warhammer/White Dwarf vibe but is simpler to play than either. Though simple has a few good roleplaying features to vary your character backgrounds. It has a good UK 80s grit vibe I like. If I was into a simple system this might be it. Illustrations have a good retro vibe and a few are inspired by the old monster manual. Sometimes art is flawed and crude but it does set up a good vibe. I will keep an eye out for this but unsure If I would get to play outside some one-offs. Might be good for playing with kids.

Update: its a good players' book and the backgrounds are an interesting way to vary characters with only 2 stats. There are races but they don't really give you benefits. For a simple game you could play more than a few sessions before advancement broke the game - you could totally run warhammer or DnD type scenarios with this and mure streamlined and simple than the Fighting Fantasy rpg.

Dungeons & Dragons Behold a search and find adventure 💓💓💥💥
A Where is Wally-type book is on sale at a good price for a hardback. Has some nice busy spreads of crowded fantasy locations and characters to find. I find the heads a bit big and dominating but a fun book to look at and good value. 

Completely Unfathomable 💓💓💓💓
I had Operation Unfathomable and hoped to run one day but this hardback colour cover book contains the contents of that book plus many more. Sitting with my favourite dnd hardbacks and an utter delight. This is a more complete setting and surface world as weird as the underground dungeons of worm and bug people. I was surprised by the size when I received it which is always good. Lots of great and inspiring gonzo G+ style weirdness everybody should have. I somehow got the DCC version but mostly it's pretty system neutral or usable with older-style games. I will sell of my older version now I have this.

Starship Geomorphs 💓💓💓💓
Sourcebook for travellers from Far Future Enterprises based on Robert Pearce's blog of SF maps its a wonderful fantastic must-have for any sf RPG. What metamorphosis ALpha should have done decades ago. Over 700 maps here are great as a hardback and from the PDF you could cut and paste your own deck area. Previously only some online deck plan generators and FASA's Star Riders trilogy had this many useful SF maps. I'd rank this one of the most must-have SF gaming books of all time.

Bottomless PIt of Zorth 💓💓💓💓
An amazing module of high weirdness. At a guess, I would say inspired by Erol Otus Cthulhu Mythos art from the original Deities & Demigods book. In a vast swamp strange mists, slimes and oozes have been coming from a vast alien hole. Within this orifice is a rotating cylindrical staircase leading to multiple dungeon levels and an amazing array of magic slimes, several disgusting ooze gods and lots of magical boons and perils aplenty. I look forward to running this, especially in a more deadly-style old-school game where players like to experiment with strange stuff. Im going to look for more works in the setting as this is an amazing taste product. I could even put it in my Xor setting. Great array of slimy horrors and a chance to be eaten by gods and of causing untold damage to the setting you run it in. A setting with Cthulhu Mythos monsters would work very well with this. I almost considered slipping it into a straight Cthulhu campaign.

Update: I don't quite know how I got this book or where but is on Drive-through RPG

Game Log






















In my cursed bronze age game we had an absentee due to scheduling and I had JB playing his warrior with cleric sidekick and bard charioteer plus Dallas with his amazon wizard and her paladin wife and bodyguard warrior. The team managed to make a non-aggression pact with the Reptilians and the Tyraneans allowing the Tyranean armies to come to the front with the Death Templars of the Grey wastes.

The heroes on chariots crossed the lands and arrived at the united war camp to meet all the factional generals. They were updated on the 4 millitary allied camps and a number of fortified towns in the area. The party decided to visit some towns to check up on the possibility of spies after some divination.

Went to first town to find 100 skeleton archers led by two skeleton warriors. Was a few tense moments until the got close enough for clerics to turn skeletons into dust. A few heroes were wounded and the konga pulling the chariots were injured but remained obedient. Skeleton warriors jumped on chariots and got closed but one turned then killed and another was repelled by an anti-undead shell spell. It climbed on the chariot yoke to attack the konga and was destroyed by magic missiles.

Arrived at the first town and saw it had skeleton guards they turned to dust. Met the lord in his palace and he explained the locals felt unsupported by the distant crown and felt they had to be prepared to get along with the death templars. Then there was a poisoning incident. They also detected some evil people. So the warrior who was poisoned at the dinner table was outraged and shouted about the wicked enemies in the town. A fight broke out and the poisoner fled while the party killed the Nergal priest and captured the lord and made the town surrender. The dead priest was questioned by clerics and they rounded up various evil cultists for a warning to not side with the death templars over the border. The priest apparently was responsible for the skeleton army. The local ruler returned to his position and apologised for the problem with his cultist relatives.  The poisoner spy was caught executed and questioned. Isn't magic wonderful? They also found texts in the Nergal temple on treating the plague menacing an allied camp and so thought that would be the next place to visit.

On way to the next town and millitary camp was attacked by a wraith and wights which were eliminated easily. Divination on remains revealed they were sent to ambush party. They visited the camp and the commander was a bit unimpressed by these adventurers with fancy diplomatic credentials and cheap fame. They reported local illness problemsThe local town was apparently miserable and in decline so they visited. The guards seemed depressed and not alert and didn't escort them through the semi-abandoned town to the lord's manor. The windows were boarded up and servants took them to the lord explaining he was sick and couldn't stand the light. He looked unhealthy and was detected as evil so they turned him. Horribly melted before all into a staggering skeleton that fell smoking to the ground and had fangs. So the palace staff were all aghast and they questioned the dead vampire thrall to learn there was one vampire and 16 thralls in the palace. The spirit was pleased its evil body was destroyed freeing all of its soul. They found a vizier in the library and fireballed it clean (lucky everybody writes on clay tablets in this setting). They went onto a shrine and killed some more thralls and entered the catacombs. Ten thralls were a bit of a problem with a girl child vamp who tried to trick the party but a cleric had detected alignment up. Most of the party was shielded by an anti-undead shell and one poor warrior lost three levels and got scared before luck turned and fireballs and spells and turning eliminated most of the vamps. The locals were grateful and given hope and a lord from the camp came and assumed command. The camp general was impressed and apologised for doubting them.

Now Lv 14 and ready to secure the borders with the Death Templars. Tyranean arrivals reported reptilians had moved troops to their part of the border and forests of the elven border in the mountains had grown closer. Soon the invasion of the death temple would begin.
