Quick Note – We Need a Thunder Rift Appreciation Day!
The more I delve into TSR’s Thunder Rift setting for Basic D&D the more I fall in love with it. This is understandable as my young self was the target audience for this setting back in the early 1990s. So as I read Knight of the Newts and the Thunder Rift setting guide the more […]
Quick Note – Gazetteer 13 – The Shadow Elves released & Other News!
Should have played the Dwarf Gazetteer 13 – The Shadow Elves is probably the one Mystera Gazetteer that I have been waiting on since WotC started releasing the Basic edition Gazetters last year. Back in my non-gaming days, when video games ruled the world for me, the Sahdow Elves of the Capcom Mystara Games were […]
Patreon Supported Adventures – Torture Chambers of the Inquisitor
The Torture Chambers of the High Inquisitor Background In a medium sized trade city a large number of homeless have gone missing. The local governor would normally pay no mind to this as it relieves the city of what he considers to be riff-riff. However, the people of the lower districts have come together to […]
vampire abilities varient 5e
Last night I went to see +Dracula Untold with my wife (a review tomorrow on Fili Archives) and found the movie a heck of a lot better than any of the reviews that came out on Friday claimed it to be. Yes it was a bit rushed in some places and drawn out in others, but over […]
Maps – Torture Chambers of the High Inquisitor
For an almost done patreon … a patreon with a huge back log! This one will be for Swords & Wizardry and is technically a 1-Page Romp.
Quick Note – Still Alive
This past week has been pretty interesting: minor house fire that killed the oven my son getting a pretty nasty fever and my wife’s new schedule as a department head. Obviously, this has put a bit of a dampener or pretty much everything going on at Genius Loci Games … which seems to happen every […]
Patreon Supported 5-minute Adventures – The Coming of the Night Train
A little early because the month is nearly done. Below you’ll find the Basic Modern adventure “The Coming of the Night Train” made for my WIP Basic Modern source book for Swords & Wizardry. Most, if not all the rules can be found on the blog just do a search for “Basic Modern”. Patreon holders, […]
Quick Note – Working on a New Sanity System for Modern Basic
I got a hold of Call of Cthulhu d20 and found that the sanity system is amazingly complex. Being that I dislike complex things and knowing that my previous sanity system was a tad bit broken I decided to go back to the drawing board as it were. Sanity is derived from the the combination of […]
Quick Note – 5e Style Ability Checks being added to Basic Modern
As I’m writing “the night Train” adventure for my Patreons (and seriously thinking of limiting the variety of choices for next month’s poll) I’ve found the need to add in the ability checks of 5e with some minor editing to stay in form with Modern Basic’s (eventually I will rename that) core tenet of being […]
Quick Note – Assault on the Southern Horn Reviewed
Merricb over at Merric’s Musings has reviewed the 5e version of Assault on the Southern Horn. The review is relatively nice but does point out some issues with my interpretation of the 5e rule set (issues I hope to solve in the next week after I review my incoming copy of the Monster Manual). Of […]
