My favorite book from the Swords & Wizardry Days at Frog God Games is Monstrosities. I have two copies of it in print. Excessive, I know, but it IS that good!
Monstrosities thundered onto the OSR landscape when it debuted in 2013. Ten years after its first appearance, Monstrosities is back and better than ever with over 500(!) monsters.
Are you tired of seeing the same old boring monsters in your campaigns? Fear not, for the ultimate monster compendium is here again! And it's a monster of a book, pun intended.
You can never have too many monsters! No matter what kind of campaign, there are foes galore to stock its wildernesses and dungeons, even the unknown depths of its mysterious oceans. This is a compendium that contains the monsters from the rulebook and many monsters from the First Edition of the original roleplaying game, but there are hundreds and hundreds of completely new beasts. This book has everything you could possibly need to spice up your game.
So, what are you waiting for? Get your hands on this book and start unleashing an army of monsters on your unsuspecting players. Who knows, they might just thank you for giving them a challenge they'll never forget. Or they might curse your name as they run for their lives. Either way, it's sure to be a wild ride.
Note: This is a 2023 revised printing of the original Swords & Wizardry monster book, updated with errata, hundreds of illustrations, and twenty more monsters for your OSR game.

An audio drama starring SEAN PATRICK FLANERY, TIM RUSS, BRUCE BOXLEITNER, and TOM BAKER with RPG, CDs, books, prints, and Woola plush!
Imagine my surprise when one of the creators behind the John Carter of Mars The Audio Seriesreached out to me to set up a potential appearance as a guest on one of the Wednesday night live streams. Then, imagine my further surprise when I found out there was a week left in the Kickstarter, and I had failed to schedule said appearance. Yep, the last few weeks have been… hectic in the Tenkar household.
Well, I’ll be backing the John Carter of Mars The Audio Series. Over the last few years, I’ve become hooked on audiobooks and audio dramas. It's my preferred method of consuming fiction these days.
Backer levels start at $25 for the audio series and go up from there.
John Carter, science fiction’s original and greatest hero, returns in a multi-cast audio drama starring Sean Patrick Flanery of Young Indiana Jones and The Boondock Saints in the title role, and co-starring Tim Russ (Star Trek: Voyager), Bruce Boxleitner (Babylon 5, TRON), and Tom Baker (Doctor Who).
We're also offering a role-playing game supplement compatible with both the Fifth Edition of the world's most popular RPG, OSR ("Old School Revival"), and Pathfinder Second Edition rules, a digital download of the audio drama, a double CD set with Frank Frazetta art, a foldable map of Barsoom, limited-edition novels published in English and native Barsoomian (Martian), and the first-ever plush of John Carter’s loyal companion, Woola™!

I've been using versions of Hexographer / Worldographer for the better part of a decade, and I'm excited to see what the latest version of the Worldographer software offers.
If you haven't heard of Worldographer and its predecessor Hexographer, Worldographer is a map-making program that lets you create and edit world and region maps; city and village maps; as well as dungeon, building interior, and other battlemats, plus cosmic sector maps.
What makes Worldographer different from other map-making software?
It installs to your computer: Unlike a web app, if the company goes out of business or if you're just on a bad connection, you can keep using it. Use it on Windows, Mac OSX, Linux, or anything that supports Java (it is written in Java, but has native installers for the most common platforms).
Worldographer has many built-in generators. Want to create a world? Just choose a few settings and it creates one in seconds! Or generate a region, city, village, tower, shop, dungeon, and more! The results are fully customizable.
Have a specific world or region in mind? Start a blank map, then rough in a fraction of the terrain. Next use our "Terrain Wizard" tool to fill in the rest of the map and edit the result.
It doesn't just help you create and edit the map. It also creates data about the world or city. For a world, it will generate a few bullets for each of several cultures, nations, and religions as well as details of cities, villages, forts, and other points of interest. For a city or village, it generates a list of residents or staff/patrons/prices for a tavern or store. All the data is fully editable.
It can also generate locations of interest for a sandbox or hex crawl style campaign.

I am not a huge Transformers fan. The first movie was alright, and I remember the syndicated cartoon, but I was a bit older than the target audience, and I NEVER owned a Transformers toy.
Still, I suspect there is a fairly large number of Transformers fans out there, and this Transformers RPG Bundle includes physical products, including dice. 40 bucks get you a GM screen, a player's journal, 2 dice sets, a dice bag, plus all the PDFs. PDF only is 18 bucks.
Get ready for exhilarating tabletop role-playing adventures with the Transformers Roleplaying Game Bundle from Renegade Game Studios! This bundle features official rulebooks and exciting new campaigns, including The Time is Now, Enigma of Combination, Decepticon Directive, and more. Create your own Autobot character and join forces with Optimus Prime in a variety of gripping campaigns against the Decepticons. Humble customers in the USA, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand also have the option to receive dice accessories, a character journal, and a GM screen! Get everything you need to embark on an epic Transformers adventure, and support the charity of your choice with your purchase!
