May ‘24 Update
Added 2024-05-03 12:37:04 +0000 UTCFirst off, welcome to new patrons! For those of the Beleaguered Bouncer and Aspiring Tycoon tiers, I have put a posting containing various PDFs (literally hundreds of pages) of work-in-progress, backburnered, or old versions of adventures and rules, including the full version of the Prismatic Wasteland rules from 2020 among a lot more. Most of these have been shared previously, but I figured it would be helpful to have them all in one place. I'll try to do a similar round-up about yearly.
Secondly, stay tuned for the Barkeep on the Borderlands Game Jam! I have written an “adventure reference document” and license for it but need to set up the itch page, and it will run from June 14 (the anniversary of Barkeeps getting shipped into the world) to August 14 (my birthday). The idea is basically for people to write their own pubs for the pubcrawl system, although the door will be flung wide for even more creative approaches.
April was a pretty busy month for blogging with 3 posts on the website and 2 patron-exclusive play reports of Vecna Lives! A few of you are in starring roles in that campaign so far, but if anyone else would like to jump in, the discord server welcomes you.
Candy Country is moving from ideation to writing as I have begun to write up some of the factions. It is going to be a slow-moving process still, but I have lots of ambitious plans for this adventure.
I’m headed off to the Kentucky Derby for mint juleps and mingling with old friends, so everyone behave while I’m away. I hope your spring is winding down nicely.
Cheers,
W.F. Smith
