I thought, #ttrpg cons are not for me, until I felt the urge to attend the #cauldron2023 #osr con, fascinated by the idea to have a convention dedicated to osr games ❤️. Since then, I have been involved in organizing two mini osr cons: #pinkponyofdeath con and #LoFiCon last weekend (lovely folks, great fun). I think, it is important to organize cons where people feel welcome, safe, and build community. 1/2

Auf geht’s ins #osr Weekend! Fahre zusammen mit Leuten, die ich u.a. auf der #Cauldron2023 der #PinkPonyOfDeathCon 2024 kennenlernen durfte in ein Haus im Harz, um ein Wochenende lang #Adnd und #Odnd zu spielen ❤️ Ran an die Klassiker.

@alexanderondu Oh no! Cons entdecke ich gerade erst für mich. Initialzündung war die tolle #Cauldron2023 #osr Con und dann haben wir danach gleich eine eigene auf die Beine gestellt und arbeiten an der nächsten Mini Con. Ich dachte, lange, dass ich mich auf cons unwohl fühlen würde und hatte Klischees vor Augen: überfüllte Terminslots, hallende Turnhallen…aber dann war es: gut.
Another blog entry about Cauldron 2024!

Woohoo! Surely the internet has been eagerly waiting for this. My name probably won’t ring a bell to anyone in the roleplaying community...

Bestia ex machina
I start:
- I was involved in launching a multi-GM open table game, which follows a #WestMarches inspired approach. So far, it is an exciting and rewarding experience and something completely new for me. I‘m curious how this little experiment of ours will evolve. We use #Shadowdark, a modern b/x ish osr game.
- I ran my first game at a con (#cauldron2023). I usually play modern #osr games and retroclones, but discovered that #adnd still has it and is super fun
@Rollenspielblog ich war 2023 das erste mal seit 1994 (?) auf einer Con (#cauldron2023 ). Da ging mir vorher „ein bisschen“ die Muffe. Hab ein selbstgeschriebenes Abenteuer geplaytestet. Lief dann ganz gut und war wunderschöne Erfahrung
@kevin @bwebster Recently, I had the privilege of playing in a game of #odnd at the #cauldron2023 #osr con. @wandererbill ran an open table hexcrawl campaign and the game felt so fresh and modern, like I was being timewarped back into the 70s and xperiencing this game for the first time. Why was it so amazing? One aspect (besides great dm), I guess: the world was the character sheet, we were collaboratively working on
@grischa @thopan doch, doch: online. Und zwar um 20:15 Uhr. Wir testen den dnd Hack Deathbringer und ein selbstgeschriebenes Abenteuer von mir, das ich vorher schon mal auf der #cauldron2023 playtesten konnte (mit #Adnd). Wenn Du spontan Lust hast, bist Du herzlich zur Spielrunde eingeladen. Schreib mir ggf einfach ne Mail: bodoheye ät gmx.de. Es wird halt sehr Play-Test-x, muss nicht fertig werden etc.

Here's a battle report of the Chainmail game at #Cauldron2023, written by one of the participants, that was the result of open table AD&D gaming over several years.

This hobby is so awesome!

(Plus: I was unaware that #Warhammer copied most core concepts from Chainmail!)

The Battle for Safeton (aka. The Birch Field Battle)
