Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded).

This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

MidGuard: The Roleplaying Game is coming to Kickstarter!

In MidGuard: The Roleplaying Game, you will be introduced to the world that combines science-fiction with Nordic mythology and play a character who is no stranger to cybernetic implants, but can also be an adept of the mystical art of hexeri.

Now you can create your own, futuristic saga, where the residents of the Nine Systems constantly fight against one another. Will you have enough courage to face trolls, dragons and space krakens?

You can also connect yourself to the forbidden Yggdrasil Network to give the finger to Odin himself and prepare for the approaching final battle of Ragnarok.

It is your story. Make it epic.

MidGuard: The Roleplaying Game was first released in Poland in 2022, following a very successful crowdfunding campaign. The game is based on a custom d20 mechanic with heavy emphasis on the player's resources, allowing to modify the outcome of the check result.

Follow our pre-launch page on Kickstarter and stay tuned for the upcoming news!

Hello DarkDave!

I run the Randomworlds TTRPG Discord chatroom and hold text-based Q&A sessions for game authors there. Would you be interested in coming by to discuss MidGuard?

This is a free service, although tips are welcome at https://ko-fi.com/gmshoe.

Your Q&A will be promoted on my Facebook feed, at 16 Facebook groups -- 18 if it is a Kickstarter -- and on three major RPG web forums (TheRPGSite, RPGPub, and Enworld). In addition, the log of the Q&A will be maintained on my blog.
