Terror Target Gemini

      Awhile back I picked up the Terror Target Gemini RPG. A fun little rules-lite game that I would call OSR adjacent.  I finally had time to read through it and wow what a great game!  Expect more posts about this one as my schedule permits! 

Description

In the Maju, life is shorter than a dynamite fuse...

TERROR TARGET GEMINI is an OSR Roleplaying Game where you play as Runners, professional adventurers hired for dangerous tasks (deliveries, arrests, rescue missions, assassinations) in the savage lands known as the Maju.

TERROR TARGET GEMINI is a hyperviolent and anachronistic western, a colorful and wacky fantasy, and an action-packed manga full of demonic gunslingers and martial arts witches. It’s influenced by: The Good, The Bad, And The Weird; Sand Land; Trigun; Progear; Lupin III; Inherent Vice Perdido Street Station; DeadMan; Metal Slug; The Green Fog; and others.

TERROR TARGET GEMINI is 168 pages of full colour rules, setting, and wacky illustrations, featuring:

• All the rules and setting information you need to play the game.
• Create unique characters from one of six bloodlines: Elves, Felids, Imps, Krus, Qaradins, and Humans.
• Choose one of four classes, each of which has four subclasses: Mercenary, Adventurer, Researcher, and Jack of All.

Ashes Without Number!!

 

     Happy I backed the latest Kevin Crawford release: Ashes Without Number! 

     Those who have followed my blog for a while know that I am a big fan of Post Apocalyptic gaming and Kevin Crawford's games (such as Stars Without Number).  Back in the day Mr. Crawford put out Other Dust which was a fun P.A. game using the same basic engine as SWN). Well Ashes Without Number has taken P.A. Sandbox gaming to the next level!  

     This book has tables galore, so even if you have a different P.A. game you are running, you can still use this book to work up a fun campaign. I'll post more about this game soon, going off to read my copy that just arrived in the mail today! Woo Hoo!!

Denizens of the Blood Sands

 

     This is a fairly recent Kickstarter I backed, by Jeffrey Jones (he also does the Gary's Appendix books). I just got the final? PDF for it yesterday and I have to say I am blown away! It reminds me of the OLD Planet Algol blog, in a great way, I want to run/play this now. This is exactly what I have been looking for!  It uses Old School Essentials for its chassis (one of my FAVORITE OSR editions), had the art, all done by the same artist (NO AI), it fantastic!  I love Post Apocalyptic stuff AND Fantasy! Original Gamma World was my jam! And this delivers in gold!  This is the first product in what is supposed to be more.  Its a bestiary, and what a cool bestiary it is! Not just stat blocks but stuff a DM can use to inspire creative encounters. My only complaint is I want MORE NOW!! LOL

     I just ended a 5E campaign, which will be my last 5E campaign, at least for the immediate future. I also backed Kevin Crawford's Ashes Without Number, its more gritty, less fantasy than this, but I can see using the monsters from Blood Sands in Ashes or using the tables in Ashes to supplement this, at least until more content for Blood Sands is released.  

     If you like Expedition to the Barrier Peaks, mixed Gamma World with AD&D back in the day, and love Science Fantasy! You need to pick this up when it is available to the general public!
