Whither Reddit? In the meantime, here’s a place to chat up old school revival (OSR) and new school revolution (NSR) style TTRPGs.

My name is Todd aka Hexed Press and I am the current caretaker (have I always been the caretaker?). Here are some other places to find me, if you are so inclined:

I thought it might be nice to set up a thread in which we can recommend game systems to one another. What do you like? Why? Give us a quick blurb about a game you like and why you think others might like it. Maybe call out if you think it would be good for absolute beginners or folks new to the OSR/NSR. Oh and the genre too. If this gains some steam, I’ll pin it to the sidebar for easy access.

There's some resemblance there, that's true :) We played Gloomhaven before Forbidden Lands, too, but all online, so there weren't many stickers involved in the first place. Congratulations on finding a group to play, are you campaigning or just hexcrawling? There's a community for FbL on lemmy, did you know?

@theLazyPragmatic we are starting the campaign this summer finally. It's my friends I have been playing with for over 20 years, and recently we decided this year we'll finally get around playing FL, Mothership and possibly Lancer. But then yesterday I got Broken Compass and I might want to push that on top of the list.

I will definitely join the Lemmy community! Thank you for the link
