Boosting the Signal! - Wasted Lands: The Dreaming Age

Image
 Today is the day you become Gods. Ere you lose that chance I beg you to choose divinity over death and dishonor. This is the day that you will achieve excellence in Tabletop Roleplaying Games, for there is a new game on the horizon: Wasted Lands: The Dreaming Age. Welcome to my blog. I hope to boost the signal of a fantastic looking TTRPG called Wasted Lands: The Dreaming Age. A Lovecraftian Sword and Sorcery OSR RPG wherein the rules are customizable and the setting is optional. Do you want to play a straight sword and sorcery campaign akin to Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser, Elric, or Conan, go for it. How about playing a traditional fantasy game with dwarves, elves, orcs, and dragons? You got it. Or you can play as characters who become Gods whose adventures will echo through the ages. It would be best if I described the setting of The Dreaming Age a bit. The Dreaming Age is our own Earth 65 million years ago.

In the year of our Lord 2020, some folks got together to ruin the OSR for everyone else. They became known as the BrOSR. Led by the inimical and foul wretch known as Jeffro the Vacuous they nearly destroyed the free peoples of the TTTRG Community.

Darwin's World - The Best kept secret in Post Apocalypse RPGs

 Darwin's World is probably among my favorite settings in gaming. I sincerely wish I had more time spent playing it. Luckily I have started playing in a Campaign with Grim Jim and T-shirted Historian among others. The system we have been using is Other Dust and to say the least, the setting is pretty different from the Twisted Earth. The Twisted Earth Setting Map However, we have encountered The Clean Water Cartel, a Mutagon whose lair was in a ruined mattress store in a strip mall. We also fought some Plague Zombies which was pretty awesome. By the by our characters are all Humans who got cryogenically frozen in 2018 so we are not natives to the twisted earth. Also, last session we gained a new NPC who is apparently a female Assassin Android. All in all The Twisted Earth and by effect The Darwin's World Rules are quite honestly my favorite out of all Post Apocalypse TTRPG settings. It's got androids, brutal and realistic mutations, defects, Slavery, Sexism, Genocide, Drugs
