Doc RotwangMaaaaan...I wish more people in the #rpg sphere were talking about Tunnels & Trolls.

Digital Mark ฮป โ๏ธ ๐ฎ ๐ ๐@DocRotwang The problem is right now nobody is publishing T&T, and Monsters! Monsters! hasn't got that much support yet. I post when I have something new, but that's about it. Hashtag stack is too much, too.
I have been writing some for my M!M! jungle setting, but I do that in spurts.
mhd@mdhughes @DocRotwang I blame licensing.
There also were some interesting takes on TFT, before SJG squeezed some money out of that again.
@DocRotwang @mdhughes There was at least "Heroes & Other Worlds" which added a bit of d20 to TFT, and the "Legends of the Ancient World" games by Dark City Games.
I'd love to see any version T*T with an easy on-ramp for homebrews, although I'd prefer to have at least some kind of DM's Guild/Jonstown setup and not just a "fan works" non-aggression pact.
@mhd @DocRotwang That's The Fantasy Trip (by Steve Jackson (US), lately republished), not Tunnels & Trolls (by Ken St. Andre).

@mdhughes @DocRotwang I know. My point is that alternative takes to D&D from the "old school" are less likely to receive support because of licensing issues, with TFT it just was a bit more obviousโฆ
Traveller and RQ get a little love, but then again, both have semi-decent licenses.
Any hope on the T&T/M!M! front regarding this? SJG is pretty hopeless here, ideologically and economically (the golden throne of Munchkin)
@mhd @DocRotwang Ken/Steve Crompton have some "ask us about using M!M!" text in the new edition, but not an open license as such. They're a little burned out by the guy who was reprinting T&T stuff.
Revolution's supposed to launch their new T&T this year, 50th anniversary, nobody's very enthused.
I just treat it like Judges Guild treated D&D: Give stats, possibly use euphemisms, don't worry about it until later.
