Okay, I haven't really seen anyone talk about this so far, but I just want to talk about something that I think is the best practice I have seen from any RPG company around edition changes... That being the way that The One Ring deals with edition changes.
Humans, @rascal.news is doing some amazing job and they are the most profesional bunch of journalists in the gaming industry. They are having a tough time keeping up the numbers to stay alive. Please, lend a hand if you can. We need them to continue! www.rascal.news

GenCon 2026 Reflections
A good time

This is true and I feel it in my bones. (Also, stressing what I reposted last night - go and support Rascal! Remember how the TTRPG community echoed a cry over Dicebreaker? Here's your chance to not let that happen again.)
Do not even think about uttering the tired old lie of there being "no money in tabletop": for it is dispensed in large sums to influencers, indie darlings, and corpos, whilst the people who truly enrich the artform increasingly feel the need to beggar themselves for scraps. Rascal deserves to go on
Lovely seeing SPINE and @almostbedtime.bsky.social's Song of the Scryptwyrm side-by-side at GenCon!
12/18 The Librarian's Apprentice, MIRU I, II, and III togther, and the very fast-selling The Magus and the Oracle, and SPINE: Siderius Plug's Immortality in Ninety-nine Endnotes
And my other game, The Words We Leave Behind, with art by @carlydraws.bsky.social. Such an honour to have 2 games amongst such a wide and varied collection on the IPR stand!
9/18 A big stack of Star Crossed looms over many other fine games but we have not stacked it like a tumbling block tower so all will be fine.
So it wasn't on the official list, but Mappa Mundi - An Exploration + Ecology RPG is available on sale from @ipr.bsky.social at Gen Con! Go get yourself a copy. These are the last they have until the new shipment we've sent them arrive!
5/18 MORE games, including Cloud Empress Starter Kit and Carved in Stone.
The House of Spyglass are also one of my (George) favourites, too. Plus, her card deck artwork is iiiiincredible!
It's #CityOfEspersRPG Thursday, and here's a gander at one of my fav Houses, Spyglass! House Mother Evie Dence started out as a PI, and after dragging up to go undercover, she never looked back. Just over a month 'til the campaign's live! tinyurl.com/3xpdvebh @threesailsstudios.bsky.social
Again reminding you that using AI reduces your reach.
Because it came up a bit over the weekend, I'm going to reiterate something here for all my #ttrpg designing pals, new & old. Using AI can only shrink your audience. No one is excited to see AI, and plenty of folks abhor it. When you use AI, you attract no one new & repulse more than you know. …

I just saw a meme that said “get in losers, we’re reclaiming the emdash”. People. PEOPLE. Where are your STANDARDS? It CLEARLY should be “get in, losers — we’re reclaiming the em dash.”

Been writing some ideas about how to navigate the relentless need to self promote the thing you made. It’s a thing I’ve been doing for 26 years, it’s not new or some terrible fresh hell. You just gotta. So here’s a simple thing you could try. Or don’t. I’m not the cops. Do what you want. 🧵
