Had to end the Fate of Cthulhu campaign I was running early, today. Which sucks and is damaging to my confidence, but ultimately for the best since people were not having fun with it.

Need to work on my improv skills, and as much as I love the game Fate combat always seems to devolve into a bit of a slog? I feel like that ought not to be so and yet yet it appears to be.

On the bright side, now I have more time over the next couple of months to work on the next campaign, once the group's main game wraps up. That one is going to be Jenna Moran's Glitch RPG, though, which is daunting after the failure of this one.

Had a successful playtest of "Traces to Nowhere" this third adventure for ESPionage. This one replicates the Brindlewood Bay mystery mechanic using Fate's Overcome.
They didn’t solve the mystery, but they had fun getting sidetracked and joined a militia.

Tales from the Golden Dragon progress: The next update will be a big one.

Since I am trying to target my book more at newcomers, the core rules of Fate will be included.

But then I realized that I needed to include advice on writing aspects. I had bits and pieces of advice here and there, so I thought I could just put them all in one place. Editing all this stuff together made me realize it wasn't enough. The book needs more advice!

so, like actual life accomplishments:

me and my partner closed out our... 7? 8? year running #FateRPG campaign this weekend.

granted the frequency went way down as we approached the end, but it's probably been a good 75-100 sessions. we punched some space feudalists. we dissolved space pax americana. we achieved space open borders. it's been a good run.

(ps: I have made art for it. it lives here: https://nebulos.space/tag?,beyond_the_awakening)

I still don't like the character creation chapter. I think I might go back to classic phased character creation, where each player has two backstory adventures with different PCs.

It might be fun to have tables to roll on for adventure ideas.

I hate to lose the role system. Is it too much to have both phases and roles?

I finally decided to add the core Fate rules to my game in progress. Surprisingly fun to re-write rules that are familiar to me. Re-phasing and shifting focus to suit my personal style.

It's up to 96 pages now. Just under 30k words.

And it still has a desperate need for more examples.

Ich werde die kommende Woche einen One-Shot in einem #FateRpg-Hack machen. Mehr ein Playtest wie gut ich Fate in Richtung Otherscape/LitM verschieben kann von der Mechanik, alias Fate-nur-mit-Aspekten. Und werde dazu das Setting “Die geheime Welt der Katzen” verwenden. Wer Interesse hat, kann gern auf meinen Discord. Dort ist auch die Terminumfrage

Nehme gern Erfahrungsberichte auf, bisher habe ich nur Seite 28 vom #Fate Handbuch gefunden 😄 danke im Vorraus

I'd just commissioned this art for the third ESPionage adventure, MindGuard, when I had an epiphany to wrap the existing material with a Twin Peaks style investigation, pushing the titular militia off the cover.
It least I can use it as interior art.
