Boy, do I? www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti...

Our new book "Get It At Sutlers" proves that everything is fun as long as an ambiguous threat of violence hangs over absolutely everything. #rpgtheory

As Troika afficionados it behooves you to check out the new book by Daniel Sell coming in a couple of months. Get It At Sutlers is an enormous retail adventure generator for inclusion in sandbox campaigns within the city of Troika. Get a job! Meet the locals! Don't die! Get it at Sutlers!

After 9 sessions, the Big Squirm is complete. 1 PC was eaten by a Pretender Worm. 1 died in a poison gas trap. 1 was killed by deadly silver threads welded by an even deadlier assassin. Everyone else got rich but also got turned into a pig. Here’s our investigation board. @melsonia.bsky.social

Just gimme that Clerks campaign

"Mechanics" > "mechanisms" is the hill I die on

Don't tell anyone, but Daniel Sell wrote a new book: www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti... Keep it under your hat!

Hey, stop reading about how horrible everything is. Go play with this name generator for Troika Citizens instead. It's got, like, a billion names and jobs and stuff. Chill out for a bit. perchance.org/4tpvv57r56#e...

It's new weird RPG book day! Didn't realise how THICK The Big Squirm was going to be, there goes a week of lunch breaks! @melsonia.bsky.social

It expels this methane through the hole in the cap, which bubbles continuously to the surface, leading many to believe a water nymph lives there.

Ahoy hoy, it's almost troika day (6/6)!

Friends of the Arts Council are trying to save Peaches the cat. The world is on fire, everything is hard, but look at those little toes! gofund.me/321a2506

Got some exciting mail from @melsonia.bsky.social !

If you were on the Troika patreon, rather than here exposing yourself to the yawning abyss, you'd be reading the world's longest rpg price list right now

It's Sunday, which means CAMPAIGN PREP DAY. What horrors are you planning for this week's game? I'm gonna make people deal with a boggart

A cheeky little weekend sale to celebrate some very positive reviews www.melsonia.com/whalgravaaks...

Just some Troikan saints going out and about

Got @melsonia.bsky.social's Longshot City (beautiful box set!), and this web of baddies mechanic has really pumped me up in prepping for our 1st session this afternoon!

So wanna make it in movies (or rpg publishing), huh, kid? Well you better go find yourself an existing book made by someone who's got loads of followers for you to glom on to but doesn't want to deal with the nightmare that is kickstarter or posting books

Today on Between Two Cairns @bradkerr.bsky.social and I review Whalgravaak’s Warehouse by @andrewwalter.bsky.social and @melsonia.bsky.social, and answer a mailbag question. www.buzzsprout.com/2042709/1488...

Whalgravaak’s Warehouse - Between Two Cairnswww.buzzsprout.com Yochai & Brad review Whalgravaak’s Warehouse by Andrew Walter, and answer a mailbag question.Mootsack: How do you decide whether something you've written should be published?

Are you a TTRPG creative? Do you miss the thrilling interactions that came with bar/retail work? Well why not try running a Kickstarter! It's never too late

Since rewatching Columbo, every time I watch a giallo I can't help thinking he'd have solved this much quicker and without all the psycho-sexual fuss

What I want is hard process, raw output, dirty bits of cast off ideas. Piles of stuff!

Most days checking on social media is like walking in on that scene in Midsommar where they're all crying on the floor, except they also want you to buy HUEL and learn how they gained 100,000 followers in one month

Melsonia likes to do charity fundraisers sometimes. Today we picked Doctors Without Borders. Share it around for us if you can. www.melsonia.com/troika-chari...

If a financially successful creative career was a sponge cake, being good at the creative bit would be the pinch of salt. I often forget to salt my cakes and no one notices

Ignore the fact that we have a troika patreon, but the idea of sharing every half-baked bit of game development publicly is weird. If what someone shares makes sense and appears in the finished version, it's just advertising. Marketing is such terrible dark magic!
