I'm diving into studying every RPG adventure published in Challenge magazine from 1986 to 1995, searching for HTT and HTT-adjacent design.

For a gamer who doesn't much like military sci-fi RPGs, I'm spending a LOT of time eyeballs-deep in them lately. 😆 Ah well.

A neighborhood-scale crop of a larger fantasy town map. This is the neighborhood of Knoutside, in Hammondal.

It's nice diving back into campaign design with the #Hammondal campaign (companion book to the city guide).

2 of my first 3 books were campaign modules, and ... then I just did a lot of stuff that WASN'T that, for a lot of years. Nice to return with experience.

Draft room arraignment using sticky notes

WIP on current dungeon layout

WIP on dungeon design. First I used sticky notes to arrange the basic room layout.

Currently using Dungeon Scrawl to make the map because I have absolutely zero talent when it comes to any other form of drawing.

Updating descriptions for rooms as I go along. At least I can write.

Draft of TTRPG adventure I’m designing called Pitch Black Blood

Been busy lately.
Got a MacBook.
Had to return said MacBook because it wasn’t the one I ordered.
Did taxes. Got $88 back.

Aside from that I’ve been spending the majority of my free time writing/designing a dungeon I soon hope to be subjecting my DCCRPG group to.
