Man, Punch and Judy must have really done a number on a generation of British kids from the amount of times I've seen "Dark and Edgy" takes on it.

Oh, the game of twenty squares is just The Royal Game of Ur but with the layout goofed up a bit and its magic.

"What took you so long at the bank?"

"Guy in front of me wanted to get two jugs and five flasks exchanged for vials."

"ouch"

"yeah, and he didn't bring a vial pouch with him, guy was rattling like a wind chime on the way out"

Thank you for the write up. from the amount of time we've seen something interesting get stymied by a terrible game engine its a breath of fresh air to see something that focused on just getting the scenario right and trusting the GM to use a system that fits for their group.

You could work it into a absurdist adventure where the city uses the toll money to hire adventures to bring back adventurers. Options to play along with the farce or just leave. With a secret third path where you unionize the town adventure population and accidentally form a guild.

you scream in despair as the fire starts to spread, if the barn goes down the cows will not survive winter. just as you begin to lose all hope, 20 goblin firefighters burst out from the ground and start cursing and yelling about how they're gonna kick this fire's rear end and that the sun made a huge mistake trying to start poo poo in their territory.

I picked up arkham horror like a week before your review started and its been a great help in understanding the rules. I'm looking forward to seeing how your example play of the gathering goes compared to mine. (poorly, ghouls ripped my flesh and freaked my bean until I swapped from Roland to Skids.)

The entire series of Yakuza video games are just khornite parables against tzeentch, because every time the incredibly complicated master plan hatched by the villains is foiled by one-to-four guys who punch and kick real good.

Adventurer is a reference to the default "freelancer" job in final fantasy games using the job system. Having flat average stat lines and utility skills.

Down With People posted:


Kevin Johnson
An exceptionally divorced Civil War re-enactor. A decade ago, Kevin was abruptly divorced by Nikki Malone, who ran off with a flamenco dancer. The ensuing family conflict from this spilled over into the Adams side of the family. Despite the intense pressure, Kevin dug his heels in and refused to let himself get shut out of the family for the good of his daughter. He lives and works in San Mateo as a school custodian, but spends his summer filling the shoes of Civil War battlefield surgeons - he's intensely passionate about it, because it was a battle worth fighting. If he came into a lot of money, he'd probably spend some of it on Civil War re-enactment poo poo, but he'd mainly try to win back Nikki.

...you're missing the absurdly vital detail of what side of the civil war he's larping.
