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.

Bag of holdings - Indie Cornucopia 9
« on: November 26, 2021, 06:01:57 AM »
Hi!

Bag of holdings now is offering Indie Cornucopia 9, for 25.53usd (at this moment, the amount increases every time someone buys it) it includes these games in PDF:

Ironsworn Delve
Impulse Drive
Opera House
Against the Darkmaster
Ultraviolet Grasslands
Electric Bastionland
Impulse Drive - 2 Ship playbooks

I don’t know any of these games, do you? Would you recommend them? At a first glance they seem like games that don’t offer anything too different from games that I already own so I am wondering if it is worth throwing money at this. Which are your thoughts?

Not sure what you own -

UVG - an osr style pointcrawl. It's worth having if that's something you're interested in. Well written and a fun read. Worth nothing that dead tree UVG is on sale at Exalted Funeral today as well.

Against the Darkmaster - An homage to MERP/Rolemaster. If that's something you liked, you may or may not need this if you have those already in your library but the art and layout is pretty great.

To add to that, Against the Darkmaster is also a complete game with lots of material packed in. Some call it OSR (but MERP-derived, rather than D&D-derived), and if that's so, it's one of the few OSR games I own and enjoy.
