Underused Biomes for RPGs in c/rpg@ttrpg.network
[โ€“] nortonglover@ttrpg.network 5 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

For land environments, I can't think of any that have been unused, but for aquatic adventures there are a few possibilities:

  • Coral Reefs - a whole maze full of creatures
  • Sargasso Sea - Vast mats of impassible plants containing wrecks, hidden islands, etc.
  • Deep-sea vents - the closest thing we have to an alien environment on earth..

Fillable Character sheet for Dark Conspiracy (ttrpg.network)
 

For a character creation game jam, I decided to make a character for Dark Conspiracy, the 1999 action/horror game from GDW.

I had hoped a fillable character sheet was already available, but I was disappointed.

So I've made my own fillable version, available to download here: https://polyhedralnonsense.com/2026/05/05/character-sheet-for-dark-conspiracy/

If you were interested in the DC system and setting, I'd recommend the https://www.darkconspiracytherpg.info/ Dark Conspiracy fan site.

My custom SW character sheet - wtill a WIP (ttrpg.network)
 

I wanted a fairly clean SW sheet for an upcoming pulp one-shot.

  • It's fillable, including adding a character image.
  • Extra space for the Edges, so I can list their effects.
  • It has a table tent for the second page

Still a WIP, but I'll post the PDF when it's done.

A quick con report for last weekend's Travellercon/USA

TLDR: I had a lot of fun, great games, wish there had been more people there.

My custom Mongoose Traveller GM screen in c/Traveller@ttrpg.network
[โ€“] nortonglover@ttrpg.network 3 points 6 months ago (6 children)

As far as I know, docking is generally just a simple Pilot roll.

If you're interested at getting a feel for the current version of Traveller, I'd recommend their Explorer version - only $1.00 on DriveThru: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/380244/traveller-explorer-s-edition

You can also try look at the free release of the old 1981 version: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/355200/classic-traveller-facsimile-edition

My custom Mongoose Traveller GM screen (ttrpg.network)
 

For my Mongoose 2E campaign, I made my own custom GM screen, with only the stuff I found myself needing on a regular basis. It's 3 landscape pages, designed to be put in a customizable GM screen.

You can download a PDF copy, and the original Affinity files I created it with, here: https://polyhedralnonsense.com/2025/10/09/a-custom-gm-screen-for-traveller/

Kosmos 68 - A character sheet for the Soviet sci-fi setting (ttrpg.network)
 

cross-posted from: https://ttrpg.network/post/22820933

Zozer recently released a version of their Kosmos 68 setting for Classic Traveller. It's based entirely on old Soviet sci-fi. The new version used the same page design and style as the original LBBs.

I've made a modified version of my Classic Traveller sheets to match this setting. They're fillable and free to download
