  • Yes!

  • Unusual TTRPG mechanics?

    Jump

  • Yeah. Very well summarized.

    Perhaps I’d also add that the advancement is earned with blood and sweat. 😅

  • I suppose YMMV, but to me it’s central. You see, the Hunter becomes a hunter because she heard a higher calling, and believing in it is what keeps it going.

    You can rename Conviction to Faith, and it probably shows what I’m hinting at. That faith can get you out of trouble (supernaturally so) but it’s also precious. You’re still human, flimsy and prone to errors, susceptible to doubt.

    And you’re way out of your league. All the time.

  • In oWoD’s Hunter: The Reckoning, you can’t advance your Edges (supernatural abilities) with XP.

    To do so, you have to gamble Conviction during the session, while using said Edges (those Conviction points gambled add dice to your pool, ideally improving your odds).

    If you succeed at the task, you gain Virtues (with which you can later buy points in Edges).

    if you fail the task, you lose Conviction points. If you run out of Conviction, you lose your ability to use Edges at all until you rest/meditate/recover for a full week.

    Not sure if it qualifies as “conceptual” or non-mechanical to you. But I love it.

  • Quantum Dark and other titles at cosmic horror sale

    Jump

  • I sort of became lost with Stellagama’s offerings after the Cepheus family. 😅

    Anyway, Quantum does ring a bell, but Quantum Dark didn’t.

    Edit: turns out I do own the base Quantum PDF. That’s why it rung a bell, I guess.

  • Cool. Hadn't even heard of that one.

    Gave it a quick glance... apparently it doesn't "break character" absolutely anywhere.

  • Magnetic overland tiles

    Jump

  • I guess only Dyson and Schley are widely known. But do check them out.

  • Magnetic overland tiles

    Jump

  • In general? Randy Musseau, Dyson Logos, Mike Schley, Eneko Menika, and Guillaume Tavernier.

    But I also lurk in mapmaking communities and gawk at all kinds of maps.

    Jump

  • Thanks! That's the first time I tried something like that.

    Of course, I saw it elsewhere and then tried to replicate it.

  • I was thinking doodling some on index cards. Is that cool?

    Sure, index cards should be fair game.

  • Magnetic cave tiles

    Jump

  • Very cool.

    I was tempted to suggest more room variety, but there’s also so much elegance in simplicity.
