Review of we deal in lead. This RPG is a unabashed ripoff of the Dark Tower series by Stephen King but it is really well done in an excellent translation into games they can work with a lot of different things, but if using the rules of Cairn, a rules light and free Osr DD variant.

Oz and Neverland by Andrew Kolb are very well reviewed RPG Settings that take the original books and mix them with really interesting new things.

As I said in the title, my player will get to choose where he goes from the one shot that starts off the game tonight.

I’m very excited!

Wish me luck everybody. I’ve been out of the game for several months, so this is me dusting myself off and getting back on the horse.

🙏❤️

Haven't heard of this system and my players wouldn't like it that much I suspect... But I know someone who'd love it.

That’s awesome! What are the things that I really like about the rpg scene days is that there’s literally something for everyone. I know a role-playing game about a family that runs a Chinese restaurant in the 30s that’s being attacked by demons. I know a game about the experience of minority Canadians in World War I. That’s a really really specific experience!

So I will say cairn is free so if you wanna check out the chassis you can look at it there’s a lot of cairn hacks, but they basically add details to make it fit the genre they want.

They all have only three statistics and auto hit. That’s right, under normal circumstances you do not roll to hit you just do damage. We deal and let is slightly different when you use artifact guns but it’s still mostly like that.

Do you have a favorite very specific niche system right now?

Because I’m a huge fan of Dungeons & Dragons, but sometimes I just like to do something weird.

Thanks again for your comment!

Technically Cairn is an Into the Odd hack. If you like Cairn, you should check out the original too. It was recently rereleased on DrivethruRPG

Oh yeah!

And also apparently Knave? Been, Milton is listed in the credits page.

I actually own both of those, and I’m saving up my pennies for print copies of the remastered of into the odd. electric bastion land and mythic bastion land.

I’m really excited about mythic bastion land actually.

Thank you so much for mentioning this! I just love how all of the systems kind of like speciate and them are still very highly a usable together.

I’m going to be honest with you. I never running module in the system is intended for these days and I never have any problems.

Thanks again!
