Just ran Gardens of Ynn, the classic depthcrawl adventure by Emmy Allen over the weekend.

I used the cheat sheet from the Eldritch Fields blog which has all of the tables you need to run the adventure.

It's great, but uses the page numbers from the original first edition of Ynn. I was using the newer, purple hardcover edition.

I made my own modified version with the newer page numbers:

I've been running a little RPG meetup group for last two years, and it's been going quite well. We've been using Discord and Meetup to schedule events, and the group is growing.

One thing I'd like to do for the group is set something up where GMs could propose games, both one-shots and campaigns, that they'd like to run. Some kind of online site where GMs could explain what they wanted to run, perhaps adding a few links about the game, and what days they'd be available to run something. Also, players could respond with their availability. Perhaps a polling system to see what games have the most interest. This would just be for face-to-face games in our local group.

Neither Discord or Meetup really work for this. Discord messages fade away too quickly and Meetup events are fixed to a particular date and time.

I was thinking of perhaps cobbling together something using Wordpress, but I thought I'd ask around first.

Has anyone done something like this before? Is there a web service already set up for something like this?

Here's a fillable version of the official character sheet for Dicey Tales, the pulp adventure RPG.

It's the same system as Everywhen and Barbarians of Lemuria.

For anyone who wants to try Sprawl Goons, the cyberpunk hack of Tunnel Goons, I've taken the official character sheets and made them fillable. https://polyhedralnonsense.com/2026/05/15/sprawl-goons-fillable-character-sheets-for-a-cyberpunk-rpg/

Just got a message from DriveThru - Atomic Ninja, the publisher of Dead End, One-Shot Wonders, and other Savage Worlds material is shutting down.

Apparently we have until May 23rd to download stuff from DriveThru, after which it will disappear.

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.

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.

TravellerCon USA 2025 is coming this October 24-26th. It's at the Double Tree hotel in Lancaster, PA.

I missed last year, but I'm definitely going to run something this year.

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/
