April 15, 2024: Discworld RPG Bundle Of Holding Available For A Limited Time!

Bringing the realm of Sir Terry Pratchett's beloved Discworld series to your gaming table has never been more affordable, thanks to the Discworld RPG Bundle of Holding.

The Disc Collection consists of three PDFs. The shining jewel is the Discworld Roleplaying Game, the Powered by GURPS stand-alone RPG that gives you everything you need to explore the Disc's magic, mayhem, mirth, and mortals (and immortals!).

This bundle also includes two other useful books. GURPS Low-Tech helps serious-minded individuals add realistic options to their GURPS Fourth Edition games. GURPS Fantasy-Tech 1: The Edge of Reality collects less-serious-minded ideas that people once upon a time thought might be possible or work, but – as it turns out – weren't feasible, making it perfect for settings where the impossible is a bit easier to come by.

April 14, 2024: Ogre Minis Set 4 Shipping Early!

Earlier this year we launched Ogre Minis Set 4, our first project on BackerKit's relatively new crowdfunding platform. Not only did the platform work well, we were very happy with the response to Set 4. Our tried and true Ogre fanatics showed up to support it, and we were also happy to see a lot of new folks interested in experiencing Ogre for the very first time! The response to the new-player pledge levels was so strong that we sold out of multiple pledge levels on the first day. Thank you!
 
Now on to the even better news.
 
At the onset of the campaign, we had estimated a June 2024 fulfillment date. We're happy to report that we are ahead of schedule, and the Warehouse 23 team started shipping orders of Ogre Miniatures Set 4 on April 9! Look for miniature tanks to arrive in mailboxes around the world over the next few weeks.

April 13, 2024: Communication Situations

Recently, a short personal development video about conversational styles appeared In my YouTube feed. Since playing games can be a social event, improving communication among participants can increase the enjoyment of the game.

The video described three aspects of communication and the different ways people interact:

Personal information: Can you easily share information about yourself at every opportunity? Or do you prefer to wait until someone asks you questions?

Favors: Do you only ask for favors if you are sure the other person will say yes? Or do you ask without any expectation of the outcome because you are comfortable denying requests?

Stories: When someone shares a story, do you add your own anecdote about something similar (or maybe even only vaguely related)? Or do you affirm the other person and/or ask a relevant question?

We often talk with other people expecting . . . [more]
