Tintenteufel MhyrWie sich meine Begegnungstabellen in unserer #WestMarches -Kampagne zusammensetzen, wie Spieler:innen mit ihren Spielfiguren unsere Spielwelt beeinflussen und was das mit dem Originalspiel #ODnD und #ADnD zu tun hat:

First day of our #osr mini con #PinkPonyOfDeath - playtested my Liminal Horror module „Nachzehrer“, played in an #Adnd tournament module, and met many lovely people - among them some folks from the #Valravn open table which I met for the first time in-person While games of #Adnd #odnd and #Mothership continue, I’m heading to a nearby bar with some PPoD folks. Not enough time (!) to chat and play with everyone 🥲
Michael / Chgowiz 🎲🎲As a DM, sometimes I watch the encounters I set in motion with a bit of foreboding, like "this could go badly..."
Watching 2 carrion crawlers almost take out a party with 4th level fighters and clerics... was a tense moment for everyone! Fortunately, the first level halfling fighter saved the day!
My carrion crawlers are like facehuggers, but with 8 tentacles, a maw plus legs and a 9 ft long body.
that ordinal person"Tucker's Kobolds" from 1987 is about giving weak #dnd monsters (honestly) excessive tricks including traps. It's a meme now, picked up on YouTube.
Looking through editions, there are zero references to kobolds using traps before it. #odnd just says they are weaker than goblins, basically the crappest humanoid. #adnd1e has them just fighting. #bxdnd says they "ambush". All before 1987. But #adnd2e (1989) has heavy reference to traps for them. TSR eating their own memes.

I've been looking into more #ttrpg #odnd retroclones recently. I've been quite an #OSE fan but reading #whiteboxFMAG got me interested, and then I started going down the "differences between using some books but not others" rabbit hole.
The thing that I found interesting, apart from the massive difference in monster power before and after Greyhawk, is how extremely similar OD&D with all books is to #ADnD. The latter has expanded detail and some extra rules but the structure is almost identical.
Irgendwie brummt unser online #osr open Table gerade richtig - so zumindest mein Eindruck. 2025 gab es u.a. #Shadowdark #DCC #LiminalHorror #WolvesUponTheCoast #Warlock #Odnd #Deathbringer #Pirateborg und #OSE -Runden. Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf Shadowdark, aber irgendwie verselbstständigt und differenziert sich das gerade alles aus. Wenn ihr mal reinschauen wollt, gerne bei @thorsten oder mir melden. Und so funktioniert der Table: 1/2 #pnpde
Highlights:
- two #osr Retreats with good friends: running an old #Adnd adventure, playing #odnd & #ClassicTraveler
- Attending the #LoFi osr Con.
- A couple of fanzines are approaching finalization.
Positive: After 2 years, our online osr open table is still active. Ran #ArdenVul got to play #Warlock
Not so great: less games than I was hoping for due to some nasty surprises the Real Life TM threw at me.
