These mecha rules are well done and actually feature several mecha heavy settings. This includes a World War II setting where both the Allies and Nazi powers have developed mecha. Then we have a forgotten colony world that's FTL civilizaion has developed mecha. Feudal Mecha Knight is another mecha setting with the mecha and knight genre baked right in;"You are a Mecha Knight, the feudal warriors of a powerful noble to whom you have sworn fealty. Your mecha is a prized family heirloom, passed down through the generations, and the source of your social stature and income." The next setting we have is Mecha racing and sports surrounding these machines. <br />We start getting into the deep end with Dynamo Force Epislon which has mecha defending the solar system; "UN ships patrol the space lanes, and when there is trouble, they launch highly maneuverable transformable mecha: Dynamos." <br />The final mecha heavy  setting is the 'Armored Infantry Space Troopers'& it hits the high marks for the AIST; " The Armored Infantry want you! Join the military, survive grueling basic training, and then get shoved into cryo-storage as your ship heads to the front."

According to the Sorcerers of Pan Tang wiki entry;"<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shannon_Appelcline" style="background: none rgb(255, 255, 255); border-radius: 2px; overflow-wrap: break-word; text-decoration-line: none;" title="Shannon Appelcline">Shannon Appelcline</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #202122;"> noted how after the fourth edition of </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #202122;">Stormbringer</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #202122;"> was published, "the best books to date for the line were produced first by Keith Herber, then by Mark Morrison.

This book delivers the Pan Tang island in colourful and dangerous detail. This supplement fits right into the Games Workshop 1991 edition of the  Stormbringer Rpg.

Hard Light is a thirty six page lower tier Science Fiction  adventure that for 1-3 level PC's. This adventure has a bit of everything for encounters with Stars Without Numbers adventurers and spacers. Jordan R has a great review on Drivethrurpg from 01-25- 2017 ; "A very solid "adventure hub", perfect to start a campain, but that can also be easily integrated into an ongoing one (especially if the PCs don't have a spaceship). The 3 "sky tombs" are very different (a pirate base, a relatively lightly guarded sunken tomb, and a big one where two groups fight one another). The layout is simple yet highly functionnal : the backstory and key to a 37-rooms sky tomb fits on 4 pages, plus another one for the map; all NPCs are described on a single page (another one gets you all the combat stats) with their important motivations and ties stated (useful in play to help you recall the more in-depth descriptions given before); lots of plot hooks and complications to throw at players while they are on Brightside station; etc. The background provided, both for the tombs and the station, is just long enough to be useful to a DM : the information provided is meaty enough to help playing the NPCs and improvise when needed, but not so much that you lose yourself in details and minutiae."</span></div><span style="background-color: white; font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">Bright Station is a great adventure location for the PC's to get thier feet wet within Hard Light. The alien skytombs are great for PC's who want to do some dungeon crawling within these interstellar relics. There's also the pirates who are lurking around the station. Also there's a rebellion brewing under the surface of the adventure. </span><p></p><p><span style="background-color: white; font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">Hard Light is a perfect adventure to drop into <a href="https://legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/142933/Strange-Stars?term=Strange+Stars+">Trey Causey's Strange Stars </a>OSR campaign setting. The fact that the Hard Light adventure is an rpg tool kit & easily adaptable to the world of Strange Stars  campaign setting. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhl05Pf2bxseibd_rzjuUbTxLMtAIlciILyZwl9mcy9TF7Q5Ek748k5gs7lfyR8BzTgkq4tpA2Tqm5BNp6YPQBmUQAHRpMqtsfqlX2sQgY6UjeTiNIf4g8cDzfBzVXL-5H8TKFF0aGPlUK6cJs-xBVKSZ-5QfjcHbqAN_y69AC1rT4Rp3fNe10vwfkWFq0" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="825" data-original-width="638" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhl05Pf2bxseibd_rzjuUbTxLMtAIlciILyZwl9mcy9TF7Q5Ek748k5gs7lfyR8BzTgkq4tpA2Tqm5BNp6YPQBmUQAHRpMqtsfqlX2sQgY6UjeTiNIf4g8cDzfBzVXL-5H8TKFF0aGPlUK6cJs-xBVKSZ-5QfjcHbqAN_y69AC1rT4Rp3fNe10vwfkWFq0=w496-h640" width="496" /></a></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br />There's literally nothing that can't go into the Strange Stars campaign setting.

I'd throw the Bright Station right around a hyperspace gateway. </span></div><p></p> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Needles</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2024/11/osr-commentary-m1-stars-without-numbers.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2024/11/osr-commentary-m1-stars-without-numbers.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2024-11-22T20:44:00-08:00'>8:44 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2024/11/osr-commentary-m1-stars-without-numbers.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1389871235'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=3490026242865436256&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=3490026242865436256&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=3490026242865436256&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

This game is all about the childhood adventures and dreams that we're forced to leave behind as we move on to adult hood. This is an rpg about the adventures of childhood and uses a simplified version of the Red Rpg system. The artwork is very well done, the editing is solid, and the layout is certain up to Red Room standards. <br />Clocking in at over 244 pages of rpg 'The End of Innocence' rpg does not skim on PC set up for your 10-14 year. You get everything here including a stat to show just how tight you are with your circle of friends. The PC creation should take about ten to fifteen minutes of dice rolls and deciding. The system is simple, quick, reliable and highly effective to generate a PC quickly. <br />The combat rpg system is as I said is a simplified version of the Red Rpg system and PC's can't die per say. That's not to say there are not consquences for your PC's action. "San Cristobal Bay, a Gulf Coast town where summer seems eternal, provides a backdrop for lighter mysteries and sun-soaked adventures. " according to the End of Innocence rpg page. And we also a Ray Bradbury rpg  setting as well;"Oakbrook, inspired by Bradbury’s fictional Green Town, represents autumn’s approach, seasonally and metaphorically" So your getting two campaign settings in one book for your youthful PC's. <br />What  makes The End of Innocence different is how it pulls off it's rpg system. It allows you as the PC to impact the setting. This rpg should have games set canocially within the 1970's through the 1990's. <br />But is The End of The Innocence a good game?! In a word yes! This game has the rpg systems pull this off. We get an expanded set of rpg investigative rules, weird meters, and even psi talents that get looked at as 'Childhood Dream' abilities. <br />You easily pull off a Saturday morning cartoon too a full on Goonies style rpg campaign with The End of Innocence rpg. <br />Is this a kids on bikes rpg?! Yes and no. Yes it takes it's cues from Seventies through Nineties classic kids & family films, tv shows, and pop culture. End of Innocence takes most of it's cue from literature, film, and even to certain extent the works of Ray Bradbury. There's a sense of a solid rpg here  & it looks like it plays very well. </span></span></td></tr></tbody></table> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Needles</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2024/11/osr-review-commentary-of-red-rooms-end.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2024/11/osr-review-commentary-of-red-rooms-end.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2024-11-22T11:57:00-08:00'>11:57 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2024/11/osr-review-commentary-of-red-rooms-end.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1389871235'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=202378060956460411&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=202378060956460411&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=202378060956460411&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

Do you have what it takes? Recruited to investigate the disappearance of missing townsfolk, the heroes soon discover that there is more to these kidnappings than meets the eye, and that these explorations aren’t just a ruin-crawls into the crumbling old mall. Can your characters survive the challenges that await them, or will they meet their end someplace deep below a besieged post-apocalyptic village? The Mall of Doom uses the Outland System™ game mechanic and requires only The Mutant Epoch™ hub rules RPG book to play. Here’s what’s included: • Multi-Path adventure: never plays the same twice. Designed for group gaming or solo play. • Due to some of the suggestive themes, horrific circumstances and descriptions, this adventure is not for the squeamish"</span></i><br /><br />So last night I was reading through Mall of Doom for the Mutant Epoch rpg & looking through the adventure.

It's been while since I've cracked open this C&C tome. One thing I've noticed is that even though all of the classic monsters are here. The organization of the Monsters & Treasure is done in such a way as to make it advantageous for adventure construction. The thing I started noticing is that Monsters & Treasure is laid out like a tool kit. You have a certain way that the monsters are placed with the right amount of likely treasure & the advantages the monsters have over the PC's. </span><span style="font-family: georgia;">Is Castles & Cruasades Monsters and Treasure classic OSR?! Yes and no, Yes this book certainly fits the asthetic of modern rpg system but uses the trappings of old school gaming. So much so that Gary Gygax endorsed Castles & Crusades when he was alive. <br />Castles & Crusades Monsters & Treasure fits the asthetic of the old school by providing the full gamit of horrors and monsters for your C&C adventurers to run into in the dungeon. </span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #666666; margin: 1em 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #666666; margin: 1em 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhbfR_PI1V_PV2FTlFAMv9tkD2AX3v-y0359lgfET7UUirxxNulmnMnivTZ5offJwgen-BMVrFubXponcDGrWaIwuyrChPQB4aaYkNylaC8A0vBHgy4dnsYXVcOPWHh5UHVEeJqBa7Q9wM_LuD9reLQwDtOmAt-bPlf0fv5YHmqMD-PriHq54tnH6aArZQ" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="632" data-original-width="474" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhbfR_PI1V_PV2FTlFAMv9tkD2AX3v-y0359lgfET7UUirxxNulmnMnivTZ5offJwgen-BMVrFubXponcDGrWaIwuyrChPQB4aaYkNylaC8A0vBHgy4dnsYXVcOPWHh5UHVEeJqBa7Q9wM_LuD9reLQwDtOmAt-bPlf0fv5YHmqMD-PriHq54tnH6aArZQ=w480-h640" width="480" /></a></span></span></div><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></span><p></p><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #666666; margin: 1em 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">There's enough generic bent to the monsters that they can fit into an any OSR or old school rpg campaign that is using the Castles & Crusades rpg system. For example we ran a Greyhawk C&C campaign. The Monsters & Treasure book was essential to running Greyhawk especially since it was such an unstable time in Greyhawk's history. <br />Now we're talking about when there were a ton of raiders and barbarians during this time in Greyhawk's history. Therefore the Monsters and Treasure were essential to this core of this campaign. Why because of the number of treasures that had been looted from the countryside. Every small kingdom & village had a small treasure or artifact that seemed to wind up in the hands of every petty tyrant, king, dictator, and warlord in the region. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj9_qL_dvN0L6l3o4DZsiACycx5upmT-7UKSojRJn7DpNXK4u2hki_D5b5O_I6FqSfl9aRKYtVHswApbOB3EMAyIjtOleY221BHK4dcEgzlP3Cb8eVrMEpo0OhGB9opvbSgzorRdWKPZEEBgXcNfmCEnO7FHjrC59CKh5OgFPuYBJtqk9X2c3aEpTmxZUQ" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="2560" data-original-width="1978" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj9_qL_dvN0L6l3o4DZsiACycx5upmT-7UKSojRJn7DpNXK4u2hki_D5b5O_I6FqSfl9aRKYtVHswApbOB3EMAyIjtOleY221BHK4dcEgzlP3Cb8eVrMEpo0OhGB9opvbSgzorRdWKPZEEBgXcNfmCEnO7FHjrC59CKh5OgFPuYBJtqk9X2c3aEpTmxZUQ=w493-h640" width="493" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">This was a time in Greyhawk's history when monsters were outta of control and they were a part of the dark forces of Greyhawk. Our adventurers  came in as survivors of the purges and raiding from various villages or outlying regions. This again is where Monsters & Treasures came in handy as both reference and guide for our Castles & Crusades campaign back about two years ago. To me Castles & Crusades Monsters & Treasure is one of the C&C essential books and very well done in my humble opinion. </div><br /><br /><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><br /><p></p> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Needles</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2024/11/osr-commentary-on-castles-crusades.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2024/11/osr-commentary-on-castles-crusades.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2024-11-18T11:19:00-08:00'>11:19 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2024/11/osr-commentary-on-castles-crusades.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1389871235'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=6079382096193824515&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=6079382096193824515&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=6079382096193824515&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

Most games have a handful of creatures that are out of the ordinary that you didn't see coming. The Mutant Bestiary One is chock full of them, and also includes a lot of generic classics. The author isn't afraid to just stat the more generic creatures and give them a short description, while lavishing the more unique beings/beasts with full write ups. (While carnivorous squirrels definitely need stats they don't need a long write up.)" These creatures are for mature readers/players because of the fact that </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #0f1111;">slavery, and sexual exploitation are a part of this supplement. Because these species see mankind as an exploitable resource. Ninety percent of the entries on these mutant monsters have random tables to randomize the mutations on these monsters.

There's plenty of rpg tools that allow the mutant monsters of Mutant Bestiary One to be inserted into your TME adventures easily. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">What this means is the range of TME mutant monsters are greatly expanded from the regular TME rule book. Adventures can easily be constructed around the mutant monsters within Mutant Bestiary One. Some of these monsters will challenge even the most jaded and experienced TME players. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">There's a certain' seen it all' mindset that comes to the post apocalyptic rpg genre that Mutant Bestiary One can cure. Be aware that many of the Mutant Bestiary One mutant monsters are 'party enders'. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Mutant Bestiary One is a well written & well designed supplement. The number of times I've used this book is numerous including for other OSR post apocalpytic rpg's. That's the utility of the Mutant Bestiary One supplement for post apocalpytic rpg gaming. </div><br /></span></span></div><p></p> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Needles</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2024/11/osr-review-commentary-on-mutant.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2024/11/osr-review-commentary-on-mutant.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2024-11-16T11:17:00-08:00'>11:17 AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2024/11/osr-review-commentary-on-mutant.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1389871235'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=5100693087040082186&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=5100693087040082186&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=5100693087040082186&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

This is solo player's tool in many ways because it hits differently from the regular Hostile rpg rules. The Player Aid & Hostile Solo rpg has the feeling of complete isolation  & being alone against the darkness of space. This is especially true of Hostile Solo rpg.<br />This means that the level of the Hostile Solo Rpg comes comes across as having a feeling of survival and skills for being alive fall on the player's shoulders. The Players Aid helps the player cope with the Hostile Solo system.<a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/502293/player-aid-for-hostile-solo?src=hottest_filtered"> The  Player
