Finished running Hammer of the Gods, a new Trail of Cthulhu 2e pulp scenario and it went down well.

Two investigators flayed and eaten, one prematurely aged to dust and the last escaped gibbering into the cold night air.

Of course, being Pulp there were Nazis and their arses were kicked 💪

WarhornPelicon 2024 | WarhornPelicon 2024 This year, a large tabletop gaming convention decided they wouldn't run an online version of their event, for completely reasonable reasons. So, a motley bunch of members of the Pelgrane Press Discord decided to see if they could fil...

@synallia beaucoup de #JdR ont complètement renversé le problème.

Par exemple les #PbtA considèrent que le résultat négatif d'un jet n'indique pas nécessairement un échec mais une complication qui survient. Je trouve la porte secrète, mais en faisant un bruit qui réveille le monstre derrière.

D'autres systèmes de jeu sont totalement dédiés à l'enquête. L'enjeu n'est jamais si l'information sera découverte mais comment. Voir #Gumshoe, #BrindlewoodBay, ou #MagistratsEtManigances.

After all those years, I've finally got to start a campaign of @robindlaws's #DreamhoundsofParis! It's set in 1929 with Dali, Picasso, Eluard, Magritte and Artaud, and for this 1st session, a short one after explaining #TrailofCthulhu, #Gumshoe and the characters, we managed to get a lot of drama as an introduction session. That bodes so well for the rest of the campaign. Besides, my players are really into the surrealists, which helps a lot. @pelgranepress @foundryvtt #ttrpg #rpg

"Favorite game system?"

I really enjoy running #TrailofCthulhu based on @robindlaws' #Gumshoe system.

I was a huge fan of #xfiles as a kid. Ever since, I enjoy running supernatural horror mysteries.

Gumshoe comes with a simple yet brilliant idea: investigators' skills are divided into those that players have to roll (like Driving and Shooting) and those that ALWAYS work (everything used to gather clues).

It's a deceptively simple, yet utterly brilliant idea.

#RPGaDAY2023 Day 20: In 20 years' time, I'll most certainly still be running #NightsBlackAgents, and I've been at it for 10 years already. Beyond the #Gumshoe system that I love, I'm a sucker for (see what I did here?) spy stories and technothrillers, with or without vampires. Moreover, this game can easily adapt to the everchanging geopolitical situations around us from the angle of secret agents. Besides, this #ttrpg is absolutely awesome! #rpg #jdr @pelgrane Press #KennethHite #RPGaDAY

Rumor confirmed that Trail of Cthulhu Second Edition is now in the works. As much as I love this game, it needs a new edition. The advice it gives is outdated and often confuses new players. It also needs a more newbie friendly adventure. (Apologies to Ken Hite, I like the adventure in Trail but it is too advanced.)
