Star Wars: Zero Company is the inheritor of the Firaxis X-Com legacy we've been waiting for, IMO.

Daggerheart Compatible Bundle
Adventurer! This all-new Daggerheart Compatible Bundle presents ebook supplements from many indie game designers that support Daggerheart, the epic tabletop roleplaying game from Darrington Press of brave heroics and vibrant worlds your gaming group builds together.

I guess I'll need to talk to some trans folks from Houston to figure out how much risk I'd be taking on by attending.

I have been rewatching the Waypoint X-Com 2: War of the Chosen let's play series, which then reminds me of No God's Country by @acoupleofdrakes.bsky.social, which I really dig but haven't gotten to play. If you want an X-Com rpg, take a look: acoupleofdrakes.itch.io/no-gods-coun...
No God's Country - Resistance, Forged in the Dark by A Couple of Drakes
Cell-Based Resistance vs. Theocratic Fascism. Light a fire.

someone could do a “after moulton rebuke, centrists face growing pressure to retreat from extreme right-wing positions on gender conformity” number that would be fun

Little TTRPG Design/GM thread: So playtests of LEATHERBOUND showed that players both loved and ignorant of a GMing technique that I thought was quite common & well known. So I’m explicitly describing it in LEATHERBOUND. I’m calling it the “Chain of Obstacles”
Game writing sprint in Philly with the @plusoneexp.bsky.social folks this weekend! Working on finishing LEATHERBOUND, my kink-forward TTRPG, before the semester gets busy! plusoneexp.com/products/lea...
To make good my promise to @orbitaldropkick.bsky.social I present the quickstart to my heartbreaker TAMASHA! An original setting and system inspired by South Asian Myth, LA hip hop and 2000s anime and cartoons. An action comedy journey to become legendary! artbyrecluse.itch.io/tamasha
Tamasha! Quickstart! by Recluse!
Set in a hopeful apocalypse where junk is better than gold and music stops armies. Are you ready to make some noise?
