Humble Bundle - Free League Immersive RPG Bundle for Alchemy VTT

I'm a fan of VTTs. I've yet to find one that I'm completely happy with, although I tend to default to Roll20 as I have a lifetime subscription to the service, and the rest of my gaming group is comfortable with it.

The Free League Immersive RPG Bundle for Alchemy VTT at Humble Bundle is an amazing deal if you enjoy the selection of Free League RPGs. Core rules, supplements, and adventures for Dragonsbane, Twilight 2000, Mork Borg, Symbaroum, Tales from the Loop, Vaesen, Coriolis, Forbidden Lands, Mutant Year Zero, and Pirate Borg.

Bundle of Holding - Swords of the Serpentine For GUMSHOE

I've been interested in the GUMSHOE system for years, but Swords of the Serpentine may just be the entry game to GUMSHOE that I'm looking for. Swords of the Serpentine is normally 29.99 in PDF, but for the next few days, it is on sale for 7.95, along with a Quickstart adventure.

Swords of the Serpentine is a sword & sorcery game of daring heroism, sly politics, and bloody savagery, set in a fantasy city rife with skullduggery and death. The rules adapt the GUMSHOE investigative roleplaying system to create a fantasy RPG with a focus on high-action roleplaying and investigation inspired by the stories of Fritz Leiber, Terry Pratchett, Robert E. Howard, and others.

Your characters will discover leads that, if followed, propel them headlong into danger and forbidden knowledge. A lead might point the way to sunken treasure, jungle ruins, the missing key to a sorcerous trap, or the true identity of a notorious murderer. The GUMSHOE game mechanics ensure that you’ll always notice leads if you look for them. It’s up to you to choose which one you'll follow into whatever perils lie ahead, in hopes of fortune, glory, justice, or just staying alive another day.

If you want to track down foul sorcerers in a corrupt and decadent city, clamber through underground ruins to sneak into an enemy’s home and rob them, or wage a secret war against a rival political faction, you’re in the right place.

Swords of the Serpentine offers:

• A fantasy city of mystery and magic inspired by Lankhmar and Ankh-Morpork
• Tools for fast and effective character creation
• A customized combat system that opens the door for cinematic, heroic battles
• Social combat that targets your enemy's morale, letting you defeat some foes through wit, guile, and threats
• Sorcery that allows you to rip apart a tower with the flick of a hand—but are you willing to pay the price in corruption to body and soul?
• Powerful allegiances that give you influence in one or more factions across the city, but which can earn you equally powerful enemies...
• Streamlined abilities that power four distinct types of heroes, and which you can mix-and-match across professions to customize your character further
• Gameplay and rules mechanics that encourage players to help build the world they're adventuring in
• Rules for death curses, true names, alchemy, sorcerous items, ghostly possession, political manipulation, and more

New Release - The Village of Greenhaven (System Neutral)

Alright, technically not NEW new, as it was released at the end of 2023, but The Village of Greenhaven is new to me. But then I guested on Inappropriate Characters this past Sunday night and learned about The Village of Greenhaven. It's exactly what I want for my campaigns - plug-and-play support material.

At three bucks in PDF and 6.99 in Print plus PDF, it's a bargain. I just ordered the Print plus PDF of The Village of Greenhaven.

The Village of Greenhaven provides a complete forest town, including locations, landmarks, shops, NPCs, Random Tables, and Potential Encounters!

Designed to be system agnostic so that you can skin this "Pop-In Principle" to your world, Greenhaven is ready to be the centerpiece of your next Campaign!

In the realm of tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs), where imagination takes flight and the story told by the dice and your table reigns supreme, this “Pop-In Principles” series of source materials emerges as a beacon for both novice and seasoned players alike. This supplement transcends the conventional boundaries of rulebooks, offering a treasure trove of general descriptions and vivid imagery designed to kindle the flames of creativity, encourage exploration, and propel dynamic role-playing adventures.With its carefully crafted content, this addition to your library becomes an indispensable tool for Game Masters and players.

As a system-agnostic tool, Game Masters will find detailed descriptions of fantastical landscapes, mysterious locales, and vibrant cities serve as the canvas upon which the narrative unfolds. As GMs pore over these pages, they find themselves equipped with the tools to breathe life into their worlds.

Whether serving as originally intended as a “pop-in” or instant piece of setting, quick diversion, or foundation for a homebrewed improvisation on the contents within, this supplement will assist GMs and players alike with developing their unique game worlds. GMs have less prep and can lean on the scenarios, locations, and encounters within. Players, in turn, discover the inspiration needed to envision their characters’ surroundings, fostering a deeper connection to the game world.

In the TTRPG sphere, innovation and creativity are the lifeblood of unforgettable adventures. Use the settings and characters within to brainstorm unique plot twists and craft elaborate experiences for your table’s characters. Hopefully, this resource becomes a wellspring of inspiration, encouraging participants to think outside the box and allowing them to contribute to the collaborative experience.

Bundle of Holding - Ultraviolet Grasslands (OSR)

In both its 2020 First Edition (funded in a February 2019 Kickstarter campaign and its 2022 "director's cut" enhanced version, Ultraviolet Grasslands has earned praise for its fevered vision of a dying-earth world inspired by Moebius' Airtight Garage, Jodorowsky, Fury Road, and heavy metal.

Deal of the Day - DRAGONLOCK Lost Dungeons: Master Set (3d Printed Terrain Files)

Okay, time to delve into my background with DRAGONLOCK. First off, I've known Tom Tullis, the bald-headed freak (I say such with only love) behind Fat Dragon Games for nearly a decade. To know Tom is to love him, or something ;) 

As for DRAGONLOCK itself, while running convention games for Frog God Games before the year the earth stood still, I ran Mouth of Doom using dungeon terrain from Fat Dragon Games, and it was amazing. It's one of the many reasons I bought a 3d printer in June of 2023 - and no, it's still in the box. Aspiration is everything at times ;)

All that to say, Fat Dragon Games produces some amazing terrain, and I say that DESPITE knowing Tom as well as I do. I kid, but if you know Tom, you have to bust on him, as he gives as good as he gets.

Today's DTRPG Deal of the Day is the DRAGONLOCK Lost Dungeons: Master Set. Normally it is 50 bucks for the files, but until tomorrow morning you can snag the DRAGONLOCK Lost Dungeons: Master Set, which is on sale for 10 bucks. 

DRAGONLOCK Lost Dungeons™ is an all-new 3D printable terrain series that is the culmination of our 18 years of design experience in tabletop gaming, and this master set is so complete we even include a dungeon toilet!

All models print supportless and are optimized for FDM 3D printers. This set features our innovative no-solder LED lighting designs that Dragonlock™ first introduced in 2019 (allowing anyone to make gorgeous LED illuminated terrain with no soldering or electronics experience necessary), our new easy-build hinge design for opening doors, 45˚ angle hallways, round rooms with centered doors, our incredibly popular Dragonbite™ link system, and much more! Lost Dungeons™ expansion sets will allow you to customize your dungeon layouts even further with the groundbreaking innovations you have come to expect from Fat Dragon Games. 

New to 3D printing? We've got you covered! Fat Dragon Games has a YouTube channel devoted to getting you started in this fantastic hobby, we walk you through everything you need to know to get your first printer, troubleshooting, tutorials, recommended settings, and much more. We also do the hard work for you and provide custom slicing profiles for Cura (a free slicing software) to take all of the guesswork out of the printing process. With full color instruction manuals, custom slicer profiles, video tutorials and build guides, and a Facebook support group with over 13,000 members, no other 3D model publisher provides you with as many support options as we do! A typical dungeon wall can be printed at home for only $0.40, and good starter 3D printers can be purchased for around $180. See our website for more info.

Humble Bundle - Doctor Who Ultimate RPG Collection

My memories of Doctor Who go back to my pre-teen and teen summers spent in the Poconos. We had one channel on the TV, a PBS station, Channel 44, WVIA. Surprisingly, it was one of the better PBS stations I ever encountered, having not just Doctor Who and various British comedies, but later even Star Trek: The Next Generation. 

My fond memories of Doctor Who only cover the first few doctors and I never watched any later Doctor Who Doctors. That being said, I know the IP has a huge fandom, and I suspect the sourcebooks included in the Doctor Who Ultimate RPG Collection Bundle will be valuable even to those with little intention of playing the RPG.

This is one of those bundles that I believe really only come into value at its highest level, 44 books for 25 bucks (plus a 20% off coupon for Cubicle 7).
