Fantastic Heroes & Witchery

Fantastic Heroes & Witchery - OSR

You ever flip through a book, and find that one thing that sells it to you? Yeah, I so need a copy of Fantastic Heroes & Witchery, entirely based on this image. Well, okay, this image and the fact that Mark Craddock uses it. Mark manages a game store, so he is kind of a guru on all the new games, so if he considers it worth his time to mock up blog posts using a system, I'm immediately open to it.

Then this sample art found in the online sampler

(Ladies, you so know what I'm talking about, right?)

(buy FHW from RPGnow.com)

Hey, for $7.50, if the authors have this kind of sense of humor, I'm totally willing to try it. If it helps, the online reviews for it are favorable, too.

Personally, I prefer hardcopy, because I like BOOKS - I like being able to handle a physical object, not have to squint, and not have to worry about battery life.

Slings for FHRPG

Some vids detailing historical use of slings. Again, in most version of D&D, this is a Simple Weapon that anyone can use. Halflings usually get some nice bonuses with slings, and some editions of D&D go absolutely bonkers with halfling-only sling feats that produce some damage potential to easily compete with longbows and crossbows. (I can't find the character sheet, but I had a 4e halfling ranger/rogue who, in natural terrain, take 5 foot step at the start of her turn, then use her sling to cause 5d6+4 damage. That was awesome.)

Basic Fuckanomics

You're born with a ton of fucks to give. So you spend them like a kid with a credit card. You give a fuck about your friends, about your grades, about your fashion sense, about strangers opinions ..... you give away too many fucks about way too many things. You have so many. then, as you get older you have maybe ten fucks per month.... so you learn to budget them. You allocate fucks to your family and career, but there aren't enough fucks left to give the newest shit. So someone at work has something they need my help with that's outside my job title? I'll do my best to allocate some fucks, but this month is pretty tight. Then you get even older, so you're down to one or two fucks a month.... and those fucks are damn precious. You give them to your family, your hobbies, your job... and that's kind of it. It's not your fault fucks expire too quickly. I would have liked to save my fucks when I was younger, but I can't. Then you hit fuck insolve...

So, this is sort of a follow-up to my earlier post on Fantasy RPG Armor for women . This is about Martina at Nerdforge , and all the awesome shit she makes. Specifically, here are her videos where she makes her own armor and then she makes a shield. She also has videos where she makes tomes, wizard staffs, and all kinds of awesome shit.
