Supplement 2: Blackmoor (Dungeons & Dragons, TSR, 1975) | Retro RPG RPGGamer 2023-10-23 | Caution! This is the second supplement to the highly addictive game Dungeons & Dragons. Handle it at your own risk. Even a brief perusal can infect the reader with the desire to do heroic deeds, cast mighty magical spells, and seek to wrest treasure from hideous monsters. The most insidious factor, however, is the secondary nature of this work. Any reader who becomes infected from this work will immediately develop a craving for the other parts, i.e. Dungeons & Dragons, Greyhawk (Supplement I), Chainmail (Medieval Miniatures Rules), polyhedral dice, and various and sundry other items. Anyone so completely ex- posed will certainly be hopelessly lost. In short, if you are not already an addict of fantasy ad- venture, put this booklet down quickly and flee!As with the first supplement, the material herein is arranged to follow the format of Dungeons & Dragons, with corrections, additions, new rules, and so forth being shown so players will be able to distinguish material at a glance. All of it is, of course, optional, for the premise of the whole game system is flexibility and personalization within the broad framework of the rules."Blackmoor" also contains some interesting and amusing information regarding the actual campaign of that name. It is the oldest and longest running Dungeons & Dragons game, and readers should find such material quite helpful in assuring the longevity of their own campaigns.#rpg #dungeonsanddragons Please Subscribe to our Channel: youtube.com/channel/UC_LzCQWjKa09lPIlrRHvoeA?sub_confirmation=1Please help support the channel, here's our Patreon:patreon.com/_rpggamerTales of Fur and Steel on DrivethruRPGdrivethrurpg.com/product/442802/Tales-of-Fur-and-Steel-Legends-of-the-Smallfolk?affiliate_id=3908907Battle for the Golden Sun (Star Wars, West End Games, 1988) | Retro Adventureyoutu.be/NGDonb_7cGoEquipment Acquisition | House Rulesyoutu.be/ptPVvrXeCeMOur Discorddiscord.gg/tBg3BVzDKC

Deep Space Nine: Technical Manual (Pocket Books, 1998) | Retro Books RPGGamer 2023-09-29 | Unlock the secrets of Terok Nor!It was once a battered Cardassian ore-processing facility orbiting the planet Bajor. But Terok Nor took on new life when the Cardassians evacuated and were replaced by Starfleet personnel. With the discovery of a nearby stable wormhole connecting the Alpha Quadrant with the Gamma Quadrant, the newly christened Space Station Deep Space 9 became one of the most important installations in known space.Filled with hundreds of schematic diagrams and illustrations, the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Technical Manual is essential for anyone interested in the ships, technology and weapons of Starfleet and the many different species, who frequent the station, including the Klingons, the Bajorans, the Romulans, the Cardassians, and the Jem'Hadar.As an added bonus, four full-color gatefolds have been specially created for this book. In addition to providing an in-depth look at the exteriors of the station, these illustrations also show the Promenade, and highlight the U.S.S. Defiant.Turning the ravaged outpost into a fully operational station involved much more than a simple name change. The transformation represented an arduous challenge to the Starfleet engineers who were required to merge two divergent technologies. How they achieved that feat, and how the Federation helps the Bajoran government keep the station running smoothly, is revealed in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Technical Manual.#rpg #startrekPlease Subscribe to our Channel: youtube.com/channel/UC_LzCQWjKa09lPIlrRHvoeA?sub_confirmation=1Please help support the channel, here's our Patreon:patreon.com/_rpggamerTales of Fur and Steel on DrivethruRPGdrivethrurpg.com/product/442802/Tales-of-Fur-and-Steel-Legends-of-the-Smallfolk?affiliate_id=3908907Renraku Arcology Shutdown (Shadowrun, FASA, 1998) | Retro RPGyoutu.be/SL1rSbgcrTAEquipment Acquisition | House Rulesyoutu.be/ptPVvrXeCeMOur Discorddiscord.gg/tBg3BVzDKC

It is frequently referred to by the acronym BESM. The title alludes to the common anime drawing style of characters with huge, expressive eyes and comparatively small mouths.The initial edition, designed by Mark C. MacKinnon, was released by Guardians of Order in 1997. Soon after that, RPG writer David L. Pulver began writing supplements for what was essentially a fairly simple game, adding a detailed system for the creation of mecha with his book Big Robots, Cool Starships. Skills were added with the next supplement, a genre book called Hot Rods & Gun Bunnies. At the same time MacKinnon and his colleagues were using BESM's system (now referred to as "the Tri-Stat System") as the basis for licensed games based on anime properties such as Sailor Moon, Dominion: Tank Police, Demon City Shinjuku and Tenchi Muyo! All of these innovations were incorporated into a second edition, which was released in 2001 to a very strong reception.

Two years later, Jimmy Mah's Project A-Ko: The Roleplaying Game (1995) became the first Silhouette game of Dream Pod 9, which had been formed in 1994 to indicate a new beginning with the new game system.

D6 Space (Purgatory Publishing / West End Games, 2004) | RPG Shorts RPGGamer 2023-09-07 | #rpg #d6spaceRetro RPG: D6 Spaceyoutu.be/3eJRdiGEDggD6 Space is a generic science fiction role-playing game (RPG) based on the D6 System. Although derived, in part, from material originally presented in The Star Wars Roleplaying Game, D6 Space is published as a stand-alone rulebook (not dependent upon or requiring other D6 System or Star Wars rulebooks) and is supported by its own line of supplements.D6 Space uses the D6 Classic System ruleset, and is thus compatible with other games using those rules. Some differences do exist between D6 Space and other related games. D6 Space uses Agility, Mechanical, Strength, Knowledge, Perception and Technical as its attributes. Apart from Agility replacing Dexterity, this is the same attribute set previously used by The Star Wars Roleplaying Game. A seventh optional attribute, Metaphysics, is also possible.The Metaphysics attribute is used by a new free-form power system. This is based on the Special Effects system from Masterbook (which was derived from the magic system from Torg). This replaces the system for using The Force from The Star Wars RPG, and the Psionics system used in the earlier D6 Space Opera PDF.Scaling (a method of determining how combat is handled between combatants and objects of starkly different sizes) uses a numeric modifier in D6 Space, and does not conform to the ship class names used in The Star Wars RPG. This new scaling system is also present in D6 Fantasy and D6 Adventure, though the benchmark names for the values listed differ between the three games.A disadvantages, advantages and special abilities system not present in The Star Wars RPG, is included, as is a system for using special abilities as Cybernetic implants.A basic star ship construction system is presented (which is expanded upon in the Space Ships supplement). This system differs from the systems presented throughout The Star Wars RPG line.The D6 System roleplaying game series offers fans of one of the most popular cinematic systems a new way to get their favorite game. Combining the best of over 15 years of D6 System design ? including systems appearing in Men in Black, DC Universe, Hercules & Xena, and the awarding-winning Star Wars roleplaying game ? each D6 System rulebook provides an attribute and skill set tailored specifically to the genre while using a game engine that's cross-genre compatible. The covers, when placed together with D6 Adventure in the middle, form a stunning panoramic image.D6 Space Rulebook- Suitable for any far future setting, including cybernetics and space travel.

Wraith: The Oblivion (White Wolf, 1994) | RPG Shorts RPGGamer 2023-09-05 | #rpg #wraith #worldofdarknessRetro RPG: Wraith: The Oblivionyoutu.be/eBJO901NGY4The game of Wraith: The Oblivion sets the players as characters who have recently died and found themselves within a grim afterlife. Characters have the options of struggling to find a means of ascending into a 'true' afterlife (referred to in the game as Transcendence), becoming embroiled in the politics of the afterlife's denizens, or gradually succumbing to the dreaded Oblivion that seeks to devour all newly deceased souls.Wraiths draw their strengths from the passions that held them to the living world. In game-terms, each character possesses Fetters, representing an object, place or person which binds them to the world of the living, and Passions, representing an emotion that they have not resolved. Fetters allow a Wraith to remain close to the world of the living, while Passions allow them to gain emotional energy to sustain themselves. However, each Wraith also possesses a secondary personality called a Shadow. Their Shadow, often portrayed by another player, works to assert dominance over the character. The Shadow's motives are always self-destruction of the Wraith. With a mix of emotional fetters and the confrontational play style that the Shadow presents, games of Wraith: The Oblivion are often powerfully emotive.

Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition (Wizards of the Coast, 2000) | RPG Shorts RPGGamer 2023-08-23 | #rpg #dungeonsanddragons #shorts #shortsvideo Retro RPG: Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition Players Handbookyoutu.be/w_Cb0BwyVd4The Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition Player's Handbook contains all the rules you need to create characters and begin adventuring with the world's most popular role-playing game. Newcomers to the game will appreciate this book's clear explanations, effective examples, pleasing layout, elegant rules, and brilliant art. It's never been easier to create and role-play a heroic human ranger, cunning elf wizard, or any other fantasy character from the game's 7 races and 11 classes.Old-school players will likewise be pleased, as the outdated AD&D rules system has been given a thorough overhaul. Gone are almost all the old restrictions on race and alignment. Halfling sorcerers, half-orc paladins, dwarf barbarians and gnome monks are now possible. THACO, negative armour class, funky saving throws, inflated ability scores, heat-based infravision and just about every other needlessly complex rule has been reworked into a faster, more consistent and fun system. Players can choose unique special abilities for their characters as they gain levels, which means that even two fighters of the same race and class can have very different abilities. The end result of all these changes is a dynamic game with more customised characters.Almost every page has some form of new artwork, and the art almost always serves to explain a concept or illustrate a point. The book is filled with example montages that help to show the difference between human, half-elf and elf, or relative size differences between creatures or what the various levels of cover and concealment look like. These illustrations make the rules much more clear. The style of the artwork is consistent throughout the book and is a definite departure from older editions of AD&D. Instead of the classic medieval artwork of Larry Elmore, the new book has the spiky, leathery, Mad Max-meets-Renaissance look of the Magic: The Gathering card game.

2300ad (Games Designer Workshop, 1988) | RPG Shorts RPGGamer 2023-08-09 | #shortsvideo #shorts #rpg #2300adTraveller 2300ad (GDW 1988) | Retro RPGyoutu.be/iASql2N5shkGame Designers Workshop (GDW) had created their popular Traveller with themes taken from Space Opera short stories and novels of the 1950s Golden Age of SF. Now GDW wanted to replace Traveller with a game that had a more contemporary hard science fiction edge. They had already published Twilight 2000, a realistic and hard-edged role-playing game set in the year 2000 in the aftermath of an apocalyptic World War III. In 1986, GDW published a new roleplaying game system called Traveller 2300 set 300 years after Twilight 2000. However, the similarity of the names Traveller and Traveller 2300 caused confusion since the new game was entirely separate from Traveller, and used neither Traveller's rules system nor the setting.To lessen the confusion, in 1988 GDW released an expanded second edition of the game renamed 2300 AD. However, 2300 AD never reached the same level of popularity as Traveller, and while GDW continued to publish new supplements and versions of Traveller, in contrast 2300 AD became only a secondary line, and eventually GDW dropped it.The game was revived twice, first in 2007 by QuikLink Interactive as a supplement titled 2320 AD for the Traveller20 game (based on the d20 System), and then in 2012 by Mongoose Publishing as a 2300 AD setting sourcebook for their version of Traveller.The game setting follows on from that of GDW's military role-playing game Twilight: 2000, in which a worldwide conventional war with limited nuclear exchanges at the end of the 20th century nearly brought about the end of civilization. In the intervening three centuries, mankind has rebuilt and returned to space. A Space Elevator orbital interface has been constructed, connecting the city of Libreville, Gabon to a satellite in geosynchronous orbit. Also, practical means of faster-than-light (FTL) travel have been discovered, leading to the exploration and colonization of planets orbiting nearby stars. The post-Westphalian nation-state remains dominant, and most space colonies are considered the territories of various nations back on Earth, resembling the European colonial era of the 18th and 19th centuries.The dominant power, both on Earth and in space, is France, recently reorganized (in 2298) as the Third French Empire, and incorporating much of Africa. France was able to survive the nuclear war relatively unscathed by abandoning its NATO allies and officially withdrawing from hostilities at the start of the Third World War, retaining enough assets and skilled people to develop a significant head-start in the race for postwar rebuilding, political leverage, and technological development. Competing powers include the United Kingdom, Manchuria, Germany, and an alliance between the weakened United States and Australia. All of these control certain extrasolar planets themselves. There are three major lanes of explored space, called Arms, named after the nations which dominate them (the French Arm, the American Arm, and the Chinese Arm). Lesser routes leading off the arms are called "Fingers".It is still early in mankind's expansion into space, and exploration has reached little beyond 40 light years from Earth. As of the time period of the game, each of the three Arms is saddled with a particular difficulty. The French Arm is the route along which the alien Kafer are pushing an aggressive invasion into human space. The Chinese Arm is beset by an insurgent terrorist faction. The American Arm has reached a dead end, further expansion along it impossible under available technology.Mankind has met with several intelligent alien civilizations, all of which are decidedly strange and non-human, from the genetically-engineered Pentapods to the reflexively bellicose Kafers.

The Gallifrey Chronicles (Virgin Books, 1991) | Retro Books RPGGamer 2023-08-04 | The planet Gallifrey: cradle of the most ancient civilisation in our galaxy, source of the technology that mastered both space and time, home of the people who call themselves the Time Lords — and the origin of the mysterious, quirky, itinerant time-traveller known as the Doctor. When the British Broadcasting Corporation transmitted the first episode of Doctor Who in 1963, no one could have predicted that the programme's popularity would ensure its survival for twenty-eight record-breaking years.In that first story we learnt only that the Doctor and his granddaughter Susan had left their home planet, under something of a cloud, in a remarkable time-travelling craft called the TARDIS that looked — at least on the outside — like a police telephone box.The Doctor and the TARDIS have remained the constant elements in a television saga that has seen many changes over the decades. As the years passed we learnt more and more about the Doctor's background, about other Time Lords, and about Gallifrey.John Peel has researched every Doctor Who story ever shown on television to bring together all the facts about Gallifrey and the Time Lords. The result — illustrated throughout with photographs from the BBC archives — is a comprehensive guide to the foundations of the entire Doctor Who universe, and a fascinating insight into the most comprehensive science fiction mythos that television has ever produced.#rpg #doctorwho Please Subscribe to our Channel: youtube.com/channel/UC_LzCQWjKa09lPIlrRHvoeA?sub_confirmation=1Please help support the channel, here's our Patreon:patreon.com/_rpggamerTales of Fur and Steel on DrivethruRPGdrivethrurpg.com/product/442802/Tales-of-Fur-and-Steel-Legends-of-the-Smallfolk?affiliate_id=3908907Rifts Conversion Book (Rifts, Palladium, 1996) | Retro RPGyoutu.be/SrOUcaPflwEMagic | House Rulesyoutu.be/5OBOjx2gVkMOur Discorddiscord.gg/tBg3BVzDKC

Battlelords of the 23rd Century (Optimus Design Systems, 1991) | RPG Shorts RPGGamer 2023-07-25 | #shorts #rpg #battlelordsRetro RPG: Battlelords of the 23rd Centuryyoutu.be/tHVjkXeOJ0YBATTLELORDS OF THE 23RD CENTURY is a science-fiction tabletop roleplaying game where players can assume the role of mercenaries, misfits, soldiers, spies, pirates, and heroes adventuring in a war-torn universe. The soldier of the future will be more like a medieval knight in ultramodern armor than a soldier of the 21st century. Operating autonomously, they will be light years from their commanders and support. -Military Scientist, Howard Dickenson. Earth, Year 2083. By the year 2282 humanity has spread among the stars and joined The Alliance of Allied Species. The Alliance is composed of over a dozen species who pool resources and technology to expand across the galaxies and defend themselves against the threat of galactic war with the hostile Ak-Nar-Ryn. The Ak-Nar-Ryn, who are more commonly called the Arachnids, have destroyed worlds and decimated populations as they advance into Alliance territory. More recently the Alliance has been faced with a new threat that is even more insidious than even the Arachnids. The shapeshifting, nanite swarms of the Atlanteans which are capable of devouring entire cities. Many member species of the Alliance have longstanding rivalries, conflicting agendas, and a few have even gone to war with each other in the past. However, each species brings something unique to the coalition, but all must overcome their bias and speciesism if they are to cooperatively achieve their goal of survival. In the midst of it all, the mega-corporations run the show from behind the scenes and cash in every chance they get. If you re not living in a colony town on some backwater world on the frontier, you re probably working for a mega-corp on a long-term contract. They own and run nearly everything, including you for as long as you re under contract. Against the backdrop of war, you can take the fight to the Arachnids as soldiers of the Galactic Armed Forces. Become a hired gun working as a corporate mercenary. Explore the universe, discovering new species and relics of past civilizations. Protect the bottom line of your company as you engage in corporate espionage or research the hidden threat the Atlanteans pose to the Alliance working as a spy. Maybe plunder is more your style? There s always room for another pirate out on the frontier. The possibilities are as limitless as the universe. Lock and load, private! Bring your extra pulse mags and your sense of humor. You ll need both. Battlelords of the 23rd Century is a complete, self-contained, roleplaying game. All you need besides this book are some gaming dice.

Mazes and Monsters (CBS, 1982) | Satanic Panic RPGGamer 2023-07-21 | Mazes and Monsters, also known as Rona Jaffe's Mazes and Monsters, is a 1982 American made-for-television film directed by Steven Hilliard Stern about a group of college students and their interest in a fictitious role-playing game (RPG) of the same name. The film stars Tom Hanks in his first lead acting role.PlotThe film opens with a scene that is revisited later in which a reporter meets with police searching a cavern. He is told a game of Mazes and Monsters got out of hand.Robbie Wheeling starts college at the fictional Grant University and soon develops a group of friends, all of whom have personal problems and issues. Jay-Jay feels marginalized by his mother, who constantly redecorates his room since she cannot make up her mind about the best look. In his "self-decorating", he wears a variety of unusual hats. Kate has had a series of failed relationships, and suffers from her father leaving home; Daniel's parents reject his dream of becoming a video game designer; and Robbie's alcoholic mother and strict father fight constantly, and he is still tormented by the mysterious disappearance of his brother, Hall. They are fans of Mazes and Monsters, a fantasy role-playing game over which Robbie was kicked out of his last school when he became too obsessed with it. Though he is reluctant, the other three students convince him to start playing again with them.Through the course of playing the game, Robbie and Kate begin a serious relationship, and he confides in her that he still has nightmares about his missing brother. Eventually, Jay-Jay, upset by feeling left out by his friends, decides to commit suicide in a local cavern. In the process of planning it, he changes his mind and decides the cavern would be better suited to a new Mazes and Monsters campaign. He dramatically kills off his character to force them to start a new campaign, in which he says they will be living out their fantasy. He proposes playing his new game in a disused and condemned cavern, and dismisses the warnings from his friends – who reluctantly agree to participate.During the actual spelunking, Robbie experiences a psychotic episode involving the last time he saw his brother, and hallucinates that he has slain a monster called a Gorvil. From this point forward, Robbie believes he is actually his character, the cleric Pardieu. This leads him to break off his relationship with Kate (to maintain celibacy) and start drawing maps that will lead him to a sacred place he has seen in his dreams, the Great Hall. In his dream, the Great Hall tells him to go to the Two Towers, and he disappears.Robbie's friends report him to the police while concealing their trip into the caverns. They and police investigators suspect he is deceased. Robbie travels to New York City, where he stabs a mugger whom he imagines to be a monster. He sees blood on his knife, then his bloodied clothes in a window, and breaks out of his delusions long enough to call Kate from a payphone. After he agrees to go to Jay-Jay's house, a delusion leads him into the subway. Not finding him at Jay-Jay's house, the friends deduce Robbie has equated the Two Towers with the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center. Robbie believes that by jumping off one of them and casting a spell, he will finally join the Great Hall. After a search, his friends find him and stop him from jumping off the south tower observation deck using the game's rules, once again pulling him out of his delusion.The film ends with the friends visiting Robbie at his parents' estate, hoping to pick up their friendship where they left off. Though he is now in regular counseling, it is implied that Robbie will live out the rest of his life trapped in his imaginary world, believing he is Pardieu, that his friends are their characters, and that he is living at an inn (actually his parents' home) and paying for his boarding with a coin that "magically" reappears in his pouch each morning. He then tells his shocked friends of a great evil lurking in the forest across the lake, believing that it threatens the lives of the "innkeeper" and his wife. The three, feeling sorry for Robbie and guilty for their role in his psychotic break, decide to engage him in a "game" of Mazes and Monsters, letting Robbie dictate the events to them. In the end, Kate says, "And so ... we played the game again ... for one last time."#rpg #satanicpanicPlease Subscribe to our Channel: youtube.com/channel/UC_LzCQWjKa09lPIlrRHvoeA?sub_confirmation=1Please help support the channel, here's our Patreon:patreon.com/_rpggamerTales of Fur and Steel on DrivethruRPGdrivethrurpg.com/product/442802/Tales-of-Fur-and-Steel-Legends-of-the-Smallfolk?affiliate_id=3908907Paranormal Animals of North America (Shadowrun, FASA, 1990) | Retro RPGyoutu.be/NYWWzw7I9NwMagic | House Rulesyoutu.be/5OBOjx2gVkMOur Discorddiscord.gg/tBg3BVzDKC
