Had a really great session on Sunday night. A Dark & Dangerous Magic failure resulted in a random roll that just absolutely fucked the party, and it was awesome.

They had to completely abandon their plans and we ended up with basically an ad hoc warlock duel...

My turn as GM is done for this rotation as my crew has safely made it back to town for some downtime activities. Next up, I get to play , where the intrepid crew of the Miss Jump are about to blunder our way into a diplomatic incident...

And this chapter of our campaign comes to an end. The Green Dragon Brotherhood only kind of fell for the trap set by the strange intelligent giant apes of the Suurat Jungle and were able to fight their way back to civilization...

Everything is prepped for tomorrow night's session. All the Green Dragon Brotherhood has to do is make it back to town. Easy peasy, right?

Not usually the kind of session we run, but tonight's game was one big combat to rescue a party member taken hostage by a shit ton of Serpentfolk.

The Green Dragon Brotherhood was vastly outnumbered, but they finally started using tactics and the martial exploits in the game to even the playing field, and they emerge victorious!

And it's COMPLETELY coincidental that the only PC with real damage is the one I had to run because the player no-showed...

Today's session was a real success! The players all came from 5e, and all of them raved about LFG.

The I built was perfect for one session, time-wise.

The ideas I recently read about and saw about how to more effectively use traps really paid off, too. They spent a lot more time problem-solving and no dumb gotchas. They still almost killed themselves.

Might revise it and run it again!

Running in person today for actual people around a table. Homemade scenario started with random seeds from the . Alternately worrying it'll be too hard and too easy.

Prepping a one-shot for a group of friends from the gym. Setting it in the same world as my ongoing campaign so hopefully my "real" players can run through this, too.

A few random rolls on the tables in the and now I've got a dungeon (thanks to ), a pin on my map, a new cult to protect that dungeon, a couple home-brewed monsters, and a little lore.

My poor 5e-playing jiu jitsu friends ain't gonna know what him 'em. I expect my regular campaign players will find their corpses at some point...

So a few friends from my gym asked if I wanted to play over the holiday. Never one to say no to gaming, I said sure.

Turns out, none of them can DM. And I don't know very well. So I've talked them into trying

I feel like I'm about to radicalize them...

At present I’m running a weekly campaign (online), and a monthly (in person). My weekly online campaign recently ended so we’re playing an one shot I wrote right now.

In the coming year I REALLY want to try out .

folks, what are you running, or hoping to run?

Fun session of last night. Using a couple adventure frameworks from the campaign setting and a whole lot of random tables.

Committed to emergent sandbox play but maybe guiding the players just a little at this point in time because I didn't make all those goddamn Foundry tokens for nothing.

Getting prepped for tomorrow's session. Using one of the adventure frameworks from the campaign setting - but adapting it so the party is being lured into a trap.

crew - I'm thinking about running a West Marches style game, which I've never done but which really sounds fun. Can't decide if trying a new system at the same time is too much new stuff at once.

It would either be , which is my current beloved system, or , which I've bought but never run.

Anyone got any insight before I get in over my head?

Had to push our session to Tuesday. My wife and son are going to a Morrissey show tonight, so I gotta feed the other kids.

Last night's game was a total blast. We had a Dark and Dangerous Magic roll almost ruin a heist, a chase that ebbed and flowed, a random encounter that gave them a glimpse into the bigger picture. The system just provides well designed FUN at every turn!

I am feeling really unprepared for tonight's session, despite the fact that every session ends up being wildly different from what I have prepared in the first place. Do other GMs get this anxiety?
