Blaggards Combat
I went to bed a bit earlier than usual last night. Looking over Cairn 2e, I started rethinking the combat mechanics for my own game, Blaggards, again.

Blaggards: First In-person Playtest

An Introduction
Well, I have been immersing myself in RPG blogs as of late, so it’s time for me to start my own I guess. One of the things I felt convicted about last year, and something that’s been on my mind since the pandemic, is the tendency to sit back and passively interact with social media,…
