Black company with a cup of coffee

Been enjoying this research, reading, and diving deeper into the world. Soon I’ll be shifting gears into Phase 2 playtester feedback… which should be a blast in a very different way. 😄🎲

It’s a holiday weekend, & I squeezed in about five hours of work before the kiddo even woke up. 😅☕ Been crafting the #TheBlackCompany Playtest 2 survey as it's soon & we got great feedback last time.

Now it’s time to switch into Dad Mode and see if I’m cool enough for some video games with her. 🎮❤️

While organizing bookshelves i learn exciting news!!! #booksky #blacksky #blerd #grimdark #theblackcompany #staynerdy

#TheBlackCompany #TTRPG

I liked the first #DarkFantasy novels, the first collection.
I was looking forward to this role-playing interpretation.

In view of the increasing ice-cold, real madness, I think that matters less.

At 3 pm today, beneath a stifling summer of fire and blood, I will guide five of the Company into Beryl’s smothering violent streets, where rumors of something old and hungry stalks in the shadows. 🤘😊 #TheBlackCompany

Five minutes until the squad storms the Beryl streets in the Summer of Riots for the #TheBlackCompany playtest and I am beyond ready. ⚔️🔥 Dice are out, nerves are high, and things are about to get messy. If you haven’t joined the Company yet, it’s still not too late...fall in and march with us.

Just got back to work on this (so, day 9); SORCERY. Blocked in a bit of the left explosion plume, finished off the middle (check out the rocks above the head), and blocked in the third flyer.

Still have not fixed Soulcatcher's left hand.

#TheBlackCompany #Illustration

More painting on SORCERY for #TheBlackCompany, day 7. Near final colours on the guys in the air there. Lots of subtle (fun) work with light and shadow on both figures flying.

For those who asked, it's painted on a Cintiq 27 using ArtRage, which does "natural" media fantastically well.

Progress on the SORCERY #painting for #TheBlackCompany, day 6.

For those interested, the guy falling at the top is what a rough colour study looks like. In other words, ugly as shit.

The guy falling on the bottom is like a mid-way finished colour.

(Still haven't fixed Soulcatcher's right hand).

The Black Company RPG Now Open for Playtesting Arc Dream Publishing has recently opened up playtesting for their much anticipated “Black Company RPG." We take a closer look all the grimdark details.

THE SUMMER OF RIOTS In those days the Black Company was in service to the Syndic of Beryl, bodyguards for a beleaguered ruler.

Comrades, the public #TheBlackCompany #TTRPG playtest is beginning.

As I said, finally an interesting project that doesn't reek of dungeons, dragons or even #OSR copycats.

It's really time for something different! Let's see what they can get out of #military #darkfantasy?!

This dropped on a lazy Sunday afternoon, so I just want to give it a second call. 🤘🏻😊
#ttrpg #ttrpgs #arcdream #theblackcompany

#TheBlackCompany #Sword&Sorcery / #DarkFantasy #TTRPG based on #GlenCook ‘s novels incoming.
#ArcDream did/does very special games like #Godlike #WildTalents & the #horror hit #DeltaGreen.
Great expectations; the books I know were great. Maybe it will turn out to be a heartbreaker.
Fine Interview 👇

Part Two of my interview with @shaneivey.bsky.social on the upcoming Black Company RPG has dropped! We dig into mass combat, dangerous magic, canon vs. table freedom, and where the game’s headed next. What are you still doing here? Go watch! 🤘😊 #ttrpgs #ttrpg #theblackcompany

Glen Cook (“Call for the Dead ," July 1980) returns with an inventive and powerful fantasy about the men of The Black Company. Mr. Cook's most recent book is STARFISHERS (Warner Books). RAKER by Glen Cook

Es gibt ja doch eine Black Company - Novelle, die vor dem ersten Roman erschienen ist. "Raker" (Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, August 1982). #GlenCook #TheBlackCompany

I’m known for loving character creation & the #BlackCompany playtest absolutely delivers! It’s clean, quick, & sets you up to jump into the story. ⚔️📖Thinking about rolling up some characters today…anyone want to join in? I might have time to run it this Saturday. #TTRPG #TheBlackCompany #Playtest

Yes. Yes, I will! #TheBlackCompany! #GameholeCon bound.

A new #TheBlackCompany RPG!!

Yes very interested, as #TheBlackCompany books were core reading in my youth... and I'm also a long time #ArcDteam fan. I'll check arcdream site for playtest signups! (Or if you can point me in right direction, LMK)

I’m gearing up for #TheBlackCompany playtest & it’s almost go time! ⚔️💀 We’re aiming to kick things off next month, & I’m putting together a crew of folks ready to dive into the grit, the shadows, and the moral gray of Glen Cook’s world.

Want to get in on the ground floor? #ArcDream

Oh, are we doing #Inktober? Here's ONE-EYE and GOBLIN from #TheBlackCompany #PenandInk

Oh boy, hope I'm with the White Rose, or Croaker, or... maybe just a totally different continent from all that.
