Eco Mofo looks interesting. So 200 years ago everything went to pot? So it's set in 2216?

Definitely looking forward to hearing more about Star Drifter in the long term and seeing the Glide expansions medium-term, but since you report that you haven't done a lot of "true" solo RPGing, I'd vote for you to start small-ish with _Harper's Quest_ so that you don't bounce off the whole pile (like I would). HQ feels like it's closer in theme/world to some of the adventure books you've covered, you'll get a chance to draw some dope dungeons, and the "starter" quest seems manageable.

This is some great stuff. Eco Mofos and Harper's Quest 2 are extremely underrated and I can confirm they are quality. I've read We Deal in Lead and it looks fantastic but haven't tried a session yet. I'm so excited to see you dip your toes into more free-form solo RPGing! :D

Hi there! Well the total order was about 30 quid. The smaller ringbound books were only a couple of quid each. You can go to the site and add a couple of documents just to see 🙂

In a PnP PDF, it is common practice to only provide a single sheet of card backs. I don't do it in PDFs that I prepare but I see it often. However, you do not need to dissasemble and reassemble. In the print dialouge, you can simply specify page numbers. Lets say for instance it's a PDF with 7 pages of card fronts and the 8th page is card backs. In the field for page numbers to be printed you can input: 1,8,2,8,3,8,4,8,5,8,6,8,7,8. Easy peasy :) I hope you enjoy Star Drifter. I loved it! Although I would most definitely reprint that on A4. It will be much easier to read. I also got some Poly Tab dividers to help me get to sections of the book easier. And very cool on the expansions for Glide. It is on my "To Buy" list and now that I see it has expansions as well it's likely to get picked up next month :)

Indeed when I print at home it isn't a problem. Just this printer doesn't offer that degree of granularity in terms of doing multiple copies of some pages but not others. Yeah - we'll see how much I enjoy it, but I may get it reprinted in the future 🙂 sounds like your copy is much more playable than mine!

I spent quite a while with Galdor's Grip and found it interesting, but the designer was (very responsibly) still iterating on the design/cards; at a certain point I lost track of which version I would need to re-make to have the "correct" version of the game. Out of curiosity -- is your PNP strategy for cards to just slip them into a sleeve with a generic card to stiffen things up? Or are you sticking the front and backs together somehow?
@lone_adventurer
Жыл бұрын
Yeah I was vaguely aware of that - fingers crossed I've got a moderately up-to-date version! I spent a bit of time during the COVID lockdowns getting half-decent at print and play games (card-based games mainly). Check out my Iron Helm playthroughs - they are all cards I made 🙂

@@lone_adventurer I, too, spent some time during lockdowns getting half-decent at PNP -- I use the gutter-fold method with linen paper, and get decent results using my home printer. I was curious to learn more about how you're making your cards. Do these print-ups get used to sandwich a third layer of cardstock?
@lone_adventurer
Жыл бұрын
@@Genghis-Pawn Interesting. I haven't done the gutterfold method before, though I may have to try it as it looks like the One Card Dungeon sheets are set up for this method. Up until now, I've just done what you said - sandwiched a piece of card between the sheet with the fronts on and the sheet with the backs on.

Seen some of the these or similar played by Madlad designs on KZitem too, great to see these printed out, worts n all. I hope the video covers the print error cost as you've probably save others that cost out there. The last one was too small but good travel size -If you narrate I will take your word for it lol.
