Grognards need to dial back the “Back in my day D&D was actually dangerous,” nonsense, as though they’re real life combat veterans. The old guard backlash at more recent editions of DnD positively reeks of reactionary old white guy entitlement.

Came out ahead in the Great Race for #Grogmeet:
A Fight at the Opera: Dragonbane
The Green Scourge of Salisbury Plain: Twilight 2000
Starfleet Academy - 2270 - Milk Run: The Code of the Spacelanes
The Forest of Doom: Dungeon World
I will avoid the 3am Club!

It is assumed that the size and weight of each coin is relatively equal to each other coin, regardless of type.
Weight is usually stated in gold pieces, 10 gold pieces equalling 1# (pound).
Page 35 of the #ADnD Players Handbook asserts all coins in the game are "relatively equal in size" and page 102 asserts all coins weight 1/10 of a pound.
For some reason, this pair of "facts" upsets many #grognards, but it just amuses me. #DnD be crazy like that, people!
There's your Call of Cthulu campaign map, #Grognards
Yo, #Grognards and #Nerdlings, show these little 'mechs some internet love for the #Minipainting
(Not my work, I just enjoy celebrating people that are in the hobby)
Wow, a #traveller AP, don't see those everyday.

Okay #Battletech #Grognards & #Nerdlings; here (finally) is my version of the Gurkha Battlemech.

Just a small fee for the work that went into it. If there are any issues with #3dprinting yell at me so I can correct them!

Hey #grognards! Help!
I love my old #dice that you had to crayon the numbers. Especially the larger ones rather than #Moldvay / #BECMI boxset dice.
I ESPCIALLY love #d20 that have 0-9 2x rather than 1-20.
Where can I get new dice like this? Not looking to spend $$$ on vintage. #ttrpg #DnD #D&D
You confessed everlasting love to everyone on the #Grognards Discord.
I think we once mooted a 'Grog On The Tyne'. #Grognards #North
#grognards needed. #grogsquad #traveller
One for the #Grognards

I used to play a version of this on the Amiga :D
Lol, all of us #grognards! The high-Gygaxian prose leaves the rules unclear at times REQUIRING close reading if for no other reason than arguing minutia with other old grognards!
High concept #DnD or lunacy?
Start in an isolated old stone age setting, use #OD&D rules
Move to new stone age, add OD&D supplements.
Find copper age people, use #BECMI #D&D
Bronze age, move to #AD&D 1e
Late bronze age: 2e
Early iron age: 3e, etc.
Would take a unique group of #grognards
Hey #grognards! Remember that old Dungeon Magazine article '30 Greatest #D&D adventures'? That's now 20 years old 😆
How many from that list have played? A bit over 1/2 for me. #DnD #AD&D
Q: What was YOUR favorite module and why?
Here's the old list

A set of hot pink multi-sided dice for role playing and board games.
#Grognards #Gamers - Help! When bringing a new player into the hobby - is there a protocol for presenting them their first dice? Should it be from An Elder's collection, passed on? Buy and present them new ones? I feel letting them choose their own should come after the inaugural set of dice.
A lot of #Grognards don't think non-binary is trans.
You know who does? Hate groups. They've reached out to let me know.
The silence of white men on banning transphobes from this platform is very loud right now.
Historical Gaming, which I'm sure would benefit from the advice of #Grognards to fill out the ranks and expand it somewhat.

Six snazzy miniatures from the 27th Pantaloon Piddlers. Dare you call them mousy?
Arvic sees you. Arvic knows you.
#Turnip28 #Kitbash #Grognards #Shako
Six miniature men in big shako hats. They are marching with muskets at the slope. There is pep in their step.
These Grognards, part of the 27th Pantaloon Piddlers, are younger and more stylish than their rivals from the 29th Bearskin Browners.
#Turnip28 #Shako #Grognards #Kitbash
Six miniature men in silly hats and snouty masks are marching to the left with muskets at the slope. They are annoyed because the second in line has stopped. That man is Sievert. Sievert is having a moment of introspection.
Sievert feels alone, even among friends.
#Turnip28 #Grognards #Kitbash #Bearskins
A tray of six miniatures with silly hats and snouty masks. They are marching with their muskets at the slope. They are filthy and weary after a long march.
A Grognard's hat is a heavy burden.
#Turnip28 #Kitbash #Grognards
This was the first time I sculpted masks using greenstuff. The result is, as you can see, awkward. Great success!
So those of your #Grognards who asked for 2300AD (Mongoose 2nd Ed) at Grogmeet in Jan, here's another choice for type of scenario:
1. Frontier - out there on the rim
2. Inner - set on a core world
3. War - during the Kafer war across Aurore and the French Arm.
That's when you realise this is a scenario whose target audience is Grogmeet and #grognards 🤣
Title art of the 1996 TV show Kindred: the Embraced featuring a blood red gothic border, white lettering and rose petals and blood stain on cement.
Is there a term equivalent to #grognards for folks who played Vampire: the Masquerade #vtm and other supernatural horror games in the 1990s? I'm talking about those of us who remember when Fox bought the rights and put out a TV show called Kindred: the Embraced.
