I stumbled upon these magazines whilst helping clean out a basement back in New York state. &nbsp;This issue features some fantastic tales of horror, a bit of sword and sorcery thrown in, and some old school horror articles. This magazine series is forever linked in my mind with OD&amp;D because it was two years later I stumbled or was shoved right into my first game! And things haven't ever really been the same again.<br />Skywald was an incredible engine of creativity and horror back in the 1970's and then it disappeared under an avalanche of Marvel horror induced haze. Many speculate that this was done as sheer marketing volume stunt to drive Skywald into submission. Needless to say that Skywald folded its tents and its material have faded into the public domain. Its perfect fodder for a retro horror campaign.<br /><br />This issue featured :<br />The Wetness of The Pit which could well be a purely urban retroclone adventure withe PC's pushed right into the horror train tracks of the story. The monsters here are nasty and deadly enough to make this a very easy story to adapt to a variety of old school retroclone games.<br />Taw is another story with potential for an old school adventure encounter, here I'm thinking either Strange Adventures or another modern day variant here.&nbsp;</span></b><br /> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The Beasts of Tomb Island might well be a great adventure encounter for a Planet Mother #$@er campaign touch stone with a bit of reworking this could be used for an old school post apocalyptic campaign.&nbsp;</span></b><br /> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Where Gods Once Stood is absolutely perfect for an Astonishing Swordsmen and Sorcerers of Hyperborea style adventure or any old school sword and sorcery campaign.&nbsp;</span></b><br /> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Corridors of Caricature is just the sort of thing that might go on in a lower key Planet Mother $#%er campaign. Very workable for any old school modern style horror themed campaign.&nbsp;</span></b><br /> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Where are The Inhabitants of Earth? now this is a perfect crossover venue for any old school post apocalyptic campaign including Stars Without Number, Mutant Future, Bandits and Battlecruisers or any old school science fantasy style campaign setting.&nbsp;</span></b><br /> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Titan Weep is another old school sword and sorcery story with a twist that makes a great little encounter for AS&amp;SH or any old school sword and sorcery campaign.&nbsp;</span></b><br /> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Finally The Horror War rounds out the whole issue and keeps the ball rolling.<br />The whole issue of Nightmare has some great filler material and adds from a real by gone age. It gives a great alternative to the huge glut of Marvel horror material of the time. Bear in mind that I love Marvel here even though Skywald was a completely different animal and had a whole different feel to their magazines. From their characters, settings, stories, art, and backdrops in all of their graphic comic magazines. All in all Skywald is like Charlton comics for me. An old school independent spirit in age when boxed and packaged consumerism was just really getting its toe hold in.&nbsp;</span></b><br /><br /> <br /></div> </div> <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/2014/10/another-free-halloween-download-skywald.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2014/10/another-free-halloween-download-skywald.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2014-10-31T19:19:00-07:00'>7:19&#8239;PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2014/10/another-free-halloween-download-skywald.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=8020938521611941299&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=8020938521611941299&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=8020938521611941299&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

Writing and designing this sort of supplement is tricky business because Lovecraft wove both the imaginary &amp; factual into his material. The Clint Staples did a great job with this one but for the Call of Cthulhu DM this book is really a nicely done book. The design and layout is easy on the eyes and the author knows his material very well.<br />Love Bradley MC Durmett's cover art as well<br />Clint draws from both New England folklore and the well stocked Lovecraftian lore to create a unique blend of material that a DM can draw a ton of campaign and adventure ideas.&nbsp;</b></span></div> <b><span style="background-color: #f2f1ed; color: black; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"></span></b><br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="background-color: #f2f1ed; color: black; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>I really don't think that the Call of Cthulhu crowd has given these books or product line a second glance.

This book is a really bold stroke by Skirmisher and Mr. Staples does a great job capturing the flavor and feel of New England in these pages.<br />We're given a nice overview of the history, horrors, and facts all in one hundred and forty pages with additional monsters and mayhem just in time for Halloween.</b></span></div> <em><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> <div style="text-align: center;"> Here's The Drivethrurpg Blurb:&nbsp;</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> </span></b></em><br /> <div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: center;"> <em><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b></em></div> <div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: center;"> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><em>The Mythos Guide to New England</em>&nbsp;provides a record of the land and its inhabitants, its prehistory and history, and its natural and unnatural characteristics.

Some the earliest settlements in the New World lie check by jowl with rugged country that, to this day, is all but untraveled by humanity. The sea, with its rocky shoals, rugged coves, unknown depths, and centuries of legend and lore holds sway over the minds of the region's inhabitants. The mountains and forests are just as mysterious and deadly, keeping secrets centuries and even millennia old, some of which mankind would be better not off not knowing. Between these wild areas are the settled portions, farms and orchards inland and harbors filled with ships and the folk that sail them on the coast. Man prevails in such places, but in the shadowed lanes, forgotten cellars, and&nbsp;lightless&nbsp;passages beneath his world there is still much that is unknown and unsettling.<br />The material here is very well balanced and the author is a veteran rpg designer &amp; writer who knows the material. He's carefully researched his subject but put his own thumb print and ideas into this product as well. This is a product though with a bit of utility at the table top as we'll see.<br /><br /><u>Using The&nbsp;</u></span></b><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><u>The Mythos Guide To New England</u><br /><u>For Call of&nbsp;Cthulhu&nbsp;and Your Old School Horror Campaigns&nbsp;</u><br /><br />There is a lot of old school horror action going on under the hood in this product. New England is a vast subject and while not every aspect can be covered all of the Mythos highlights are hit here and some other traditional subjects are hit upon as well. This is a volume that will spark a DM's imagination and add the thread of the weird and depraved to their imaginations. This book provides a DM with plenty of opportunities to&nbsp;enmesh&nbsp;the PC's into the machinations of cults, high weirdness, and plenty of&nbsp;Lovecraftian hi jinks deep in the New England venue. <br />&nbsp;</b></span><b style="color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><img alt="Cover for &quot;The Mythos Society Guide to New England&quot;" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/proxy/AVvXsEjU6rYeVccksyIYwxbkwd-JlBwNrcgULktTEJQVRd-Zd6w1xdij8HK2jAkj99mHIYHJKwkDByZMOhCVfZTQq05lzdAeI3SlZAo9x0WWoz3L0tL_ENO3ztMkez6HsKdg2-tJ2ed5RRv6rgFaRqz9vxA9yj0TcQ=s0-d-e1-ft" width="259" /><br /></span></b><br /> <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: #222222;">A good example of one of the nasties that are found in this tome but was &nbsp;an over flow creature is the&nbsp;</span><span style="text-align: start;"><span style="line-height: 30px;">Misshipesha.

The ability to build an adventure and campaign around the backdrop of New England and its lands.<br />New England held deep echoes for Lovecraft and his contemporaries. And this volume allows a DM to use this material as a handy horror candy sampler picking &amp; choosing what he or she needs or wants for their old school campaigns.<br />But this does not have to be simply Call of Cthulhu, any contemporary horror rpg can benefit with this material and that's really one of the strengths of this book.<br />Many of the DM's I know who use Realms of Chaos and other Lovecraftian OSR material can easily create their own stats and draw from the plethora of horror material within these pages. There is a ton of monsters, cults, and nasties to bedevil your PC's with. The advantage here is that these monsters have been here for a long time. At least two hundred or more years and this is rout out within this book's pages.<br />&nbsp;Could this material be used in a game like Chill or one of the other great horror games on the market currently including some of the OSR retroclones? Sure it could.<br />This is the first updated exclusively New England book that I've seen seen Chill had their own New England Guide book many years ago and its very well done! Pick this one up and get going on your investigations into one of Lovecraft's back yards!&nbsp;</b></span><br /></div> </div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div

The spin here is about some colonists upon Mars. We've got a washed up boxer and his wife, lightning guns, strange Martian&nbsp;monstrous&nbsp;races and more. Here we've got a Mars filled to the brim with ruins and ancient megadungeons waiting for the coming of colonists from Earth. The story weaves a tapestry of charming pulp adventure but really there is a ton here to pull from for a one shot adventure. An illusion causing proto telepathic race, echoes of history darting through the story and an almost Lovecraftian vibe&nbsp;slithering&nbsp;just under the&nbsp;surface of this tale. Even though its a quick read there's lots of little nuances that can be pulled from to make this into a touch stone for a Martian style campaign, something I'm planning on taking full advantage of. All in all this is rather interesting little relic created by one of the masters from the Lovecraft circle.&nbsp;</b></span></span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><img height="220" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/dd/Karte_Mars_Schiaparelli_MKL1888.png" width="400" /></b></div> <div style="text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

A zone of loot and opportunity that DM over look as an adventure location and opportunity. Well once again Dave Woodrum and Fishwife games comes up with another post apocalyptic product I didn't know I needed but now I can see all kinds of twisted uses for.<br />100 Thrift Store Items, More Crap! follows the exact formula of these products a very concisely put together list of &nbsp;items, junk, and whatnot to stuff the pouches, bags, and what have you of adventures with treasure. The pdf is only two pages and gives the post apocalyptic DM everything they need to fill the ruined shelves of a former thrift stores or dollar store locations which for urban or country adventures are perfect.<br />This is the second product in this series and these locations can offer a DM a great opportunity to set up a monster's lair or mutant tribe right within a thrift store. Another thing that can be done with this locations is their use small scale locations for minor treasures such as those find within the AD&amp;D 1st edition's DM's guide. This list provides the icing on the cake for such locations.<br />These pdfs are well put together, they're system agnostic and can be used with any old school post apocalyptic game or even modern gaming system for that matter.<br /><br /><u>Using&nbsp;100 Thrift Store Items, More Crap!<br />For Your Old School Post Apocalyptic Campaigns<br /></u><img height="320" src="http://rpg.drivethrustuff.com/images/3692/139260.jpg" width="247" /><br /><br />Being the second in the series I recommend grabbing the first of this series and then diving into the deep end of ideas for using this one. &nbsp;Yes this can be used to salt those zombie infested cities that have been cropping up like flies across the face of post apocalyptic gaming. And this list could also be used to salt apartments and various other urban and deep city ruin locations with treasures of the Ancients.<br />Other ideas are to use this list to deck out weird little shops like Christmas Village variety junk shops as well with certain items.<br />These charts can also be used for ruin themed sporting events such as those found in certain old school post apocalytic campaigns to indicate especially rich zones of ruins where mid level mutant monsters are lurking.<br />One thing about post apocalyptic gaming a DM can never have enough loot charts, artifact charts, and relic lists. This is another tool in the DM arsenal for more post apocalyptic fun.

If you love your mutant dinosaurs then this issue is one to get. This issue goes into all of the basics and options for introducing your PC's to all of the high weirdness &nbsp;of mutant dinosaur driven adventures.<br />Here's a sample from an old 80's cartoon of what might be done with this issue's contents &nbsp;turned it into a campaign.&nbsp;</span></b><br /> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="266" mozallowfullscreen="mozallowfullscreen" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/tpuhLkh358Y?feature=player_embedded" webkitallowfullscreen="webkitallowfullscreen" width="320"></iframe></span></b></div> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Mutant Dinosaurs have the potential to be an incredible campaign resource or hazard for adventurers . Here's a chance to really showcase some of the super science of the Ancients and show the lasting legacy of&nbsp;monstrous&nbsp;evil and ecological science gone wild. The genteic super science &nbsp;effects are still&nbsp;echoing through the wastelands even today. And can easily be the lynch pin for a campaign. Even in the&nbsp;rpgnow blurb &nbsp;we get a sample of what this issue is all about:&nbsp;</span></b><br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b style="background-color: white; text-align: start;"><span style="line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Using their expertise in biotechnology, the Ancients created or recreated many new species for use as pets or livestock. Ever-popular dinosaurs were among the first large, complex creatures brought back in the lab. This was not cloning or &#8220;de-extinction&#8221; in the strictest sense, but rather a combination of genetic archaeology and reinterpretation, and the Ancients designed the animals for their own reasons and pleasures as though sculpting with DNA putty.</span></span></b></div> <span style="background-color: white; text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"></span></span><br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="background-color: white; text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></span></span></div> <span style="background-color: white; text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><span style="line-height: 18px;">This issue opens up the possibilities &nbsp;of mutant dinosaurs adventure locations within your campaigns for adventurers to stumble upon. The legacies of the Ancients can be exposed with &nbsp;just this sort of adventure. &nbsp;Mutant dinosaurs can act as the&nbsp;catalysts&nbsp;for entire campaigns here.</span></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><span style="line-height: 18px;">&nbsp;For example from the&nbsp;classic film Jurassic&nbsp;Park we get the remains of a park where super science has run riot .

This is a perfect way of&nbsp;introducing Ancient's DNA manipulation technology and artifacts to a campaign.<br /><br />All in all I found this to be one of the most useful issue of Wisdom From The Wastelands to date. The rest of the issue is rounded out with some great mutant monsters and solid content that could be woven together to create a great one shot adventure or a long term campaign.&nbsp;</span></b></span></span></div> </div> </div> <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/2014/10/quick-shoutout-for-wisdom-from.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2014/10/quick-shoutout-for-wisdom-from.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2014-10-28T12:31:00-07:00'>12:31&#8239;PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2014/10/quick-shoutout-for-wisdom-from.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=4250703774796996949&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=4250703774796996949&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=4250703774796996949&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

font-weight: normal;">An ancient throwback mutated species of primordial looking arachnids whose vicious presence was first observed two years ago on an&nbsp;expedition&nbsp;in the ancient city of Manhat. These&nbsp;heavily armed predators use a combination of swarm tactics and guile to take down prey humanoids and mutated animals armed with deadly clawed and horned legs.</span></h4> <h4> <span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;">&nbsp;A series of neuro toxin producing &nbsp;spines edge the front legs of these creatures &nbsp;are used to rake prey while a vicious toothy bone palette slices and injures the prey with a grating wound across any exposed flesh or soft tissues.&nbsp;Each one of these horrors is as big as the diameter of a humanoid hand and they are often encountered as lone scouts or advanced hunters for larger feeding swarms. <br /><br /><img alt="Palaeotarbus jerami.png" height="370" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9e/Palaeotarbus_jerami.png" width="400" /><br /><br /><br /># Appearing 1- 100<br />AC: 6<br />Movement : 15<br />HD: 2<br />% In Lair : 70<br />Treasure <br />Type: C<br /> <br />The victim must make a save vs death for any wounds received or go into a spasm induced state of rigid paralysis as the toxins do their work reeking untold harm on the victims nervous system and body. As the victim bleeds out from a combination of wounds and poison the rest of the swarm will move in to finish off any fleshy bits. Especially loved are the eyes and tongues of victims.<br />These horrors are especially well suited to temperate climates but have adapted quite readily to many wasteland locations across the former United States. The speculation is that the species is actually a mutant variety of an ancient primeval spider like species from a time space gate from millions of years in Earth's past. <br />The species seems drawn to ancient paranormal energies and the like. There is speculation that these horrors have some form of empathetic/telepathic bonding which enables them form webs of mind energy.<br />&nbsp;These creatures often hunt as lone creatures drawn to ancient ruins and places of power.&nbsp;These monsters are sensitive to the negative energies of certain planar conditions and often seem to be found where undead operate. There are some varieties that glow a ghostly green with these energies as part of a defense mechanism. These&nbsp;creatures&nbsp;will&nbsp;cause 3 points of damage to anyone trying to handle them.Scalpers often seem drawn to dungeons, old military bases, and the like. The Scalper comes in to distinct varieties, the dungeon scalper is often found in areas of undead activity where zombies and the unquiet dead make their homes. They are fond of certain quasi paranormal parasites that infect the undead. They tear into the scalp and brain pan of these creatures which has given the name to the monster.<br />&nbsp;The second variety is the ruin scalper which can be recognized by the distinctive blue green markings around the legs.&nbsp;</span></h4> <h4> <span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;">These horrors love to lay egg sacs within the eye sockets of prey animals and adventurers resulting in the births of hundreds of young feeding upon the decayed corpses of former victims.Often these will burst forth onto anyone or thing present and enter a feeding frenzy on anything present. There are often relics or artifacts present from former 'guests' of the Scalpers.&nbsp;Many times adventurers will seek out lairs of scalpers for the rich pickings and salvage that go hand and leg with these deadly predators of the wastelands.&nbsp;&nbsp;From time to time warlords often capture these horrors to torture and torment&nbsp;especially&nbsp;hated enemies.&nbsp;</span></h4> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> </div> <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/2014/10/the-ruin-dungeon-scalper-for-your-old.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2014/10/the-ruin-dungeon-scalper-for-your-old.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2014-10-27T22:18:00-07:00'>10:18&#8239;PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2014/10/the-ruin-dungeon-scalper-for-your-old.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=5472359753265165954&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=5472359753265165954&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=5472359753265165954&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

Once again I didn't know this setting and material was out there.<br />Its free and there's a ton of great drug induced madness to infect your old school campaigns.

The material here makes for some interesting ideas with perhaps more then a trace of William S.

The small horrors often coat &amp; cocoon themselves in highly enzyme rich slime to enter a deathlike state that can last for centuries only to spring to life at a moment's notice when prey is within the vicinity.<br /></span></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><img src="https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS5qE9vdGcMyYgtisvEJ1IuKiNlGTgSbrxOBLjd5fUQRwc1FL1zKTxzA8Hk" /></span></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br />&nbsp;These horrors are often drawn to body heat and have multifaceted eyes capable of looking deep into several unknown regions of the spectrum. They have infravision up to 20 feet and delicate sensing apparatus capable of tasting blood in the air or water up to two miles away from their prey.<br />There are thousands of variations of the species across the planes and can often be found in dungeons, space wrecks, ancient flying saucers and other post apocalyptic habits. They have adapted quite well to several magic rich prime plane locations and dimensions sharing space with other dungeon denizens some of whom the species hunts as well.<br />Several of the larger varieties of the species which range from four to five feet have paralyzing feelers or tendrils capable of paralyzing a man in moments unless a save vs poison is made. The victim is aware of their surroundings but can do nothing as the horror moves in for the kill. The monster often takes several chunks of flesh from its victim &amp; then comes back to feed at its leisure after the victims bleed out. These larger variety of monster seem drawn to negative material energies often given off by undead and their ilk. They often inhabit crypts, ruined museums, and other places of the dead. They scavenge from corpses and other dead things while sustaining themselves with the negative aural energies of such places.<br />These horrors often keep small nests of treasure and artifacts to attract mates. These are often collections from past victims piled into trophy displays. There is very little difference between sexes within the species and they can switch genders as needed for reproduction.<br />These monsters have filled a little known ecological niche within the post&nbsp;apocalyptic&nbsp;world and&nbsp;though a&nbsp;nuisance&nbsp;to adventurers and&nbsp;excavators. These horrors can present a very dangerous foe if under estimated.<br /><br /><img height="313" src="https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRmzu4O6jNXFgGA4GjxnIAzvZS72UHyW5FPxYTgSNnOlSXn95tcxQ" width="400" /></span></b></div> </div> <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/2014/10/hexopeidic-ruin-trilobites-for-your-old.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2014/10/hexopeidic-ruin-trilobites-for-your-old.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2014-10-26T00:03:00-07:00'>12:03&#8239;AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2014/10/hexopeidic-ruin-trilobites-for-your-old.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=907368178323664501&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=907368178323664501&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=907368178323664501&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

A good example of this is ASE1 and the writing of Patrick Wetmore. Now after zipping around LuLu site today I stumbled upon the unlikely title of Anomalous Subsurface Environment an adventure module and gonzo science fantasy setting. Why the hell didn't I know about this wonderful little piece of OSR wonderment years ago?<br />Apparently this sucker has a science fantasy vibe in the key of incredible. This looks like the type of module Little Jimmy DM would have thrown together after a sick week from school and an overdoes of 80's cartoon school afternoon shows before his mum switched the channel to the soaps or Opera.<br />But I digress after some extensive investigation work and reading up on the module's review &nbsp;because there's now two levels covered. I decided to throw some coin at this product and its author when I get the chance.<br />When began looking into this product this piece of artwork from the module popped up! Yeah that's pure old school science fantasy right there in one quick piece of art.</span></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><img height="272" src="http://www.infinitedragons.com/files/ASE-Tumbler/ASE-Races.gif" width="400" /></span></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Apparently there's also a whole solo blog called Henchmen Abuse that pretty much supports this module with new material and reviews coming out daily. Why isn't this in my blog roll then? Hmm. Lately I've been of the opinion that each DM is really their own OSR. So basically its really up to me to have sought this whole brand of whole sale OSR madness out myself.</span></b><br /> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The fact that this Megadungeon adventure manages to squeeze in a whole post&nbsp;apocalyptic&nbsp;campaign setting into its backdrop in one fell swoop as well is an added bonus of&nbsp;coolness. This needs to be a part of my world! So after looking over the author/designers blog I discover something else. There's a second level that's been made.<br />And this second deeper level to this maze of &nbsp;high level old school weirdness comes &nbsp;with clowns and dinosaurs! Clowns and dinosaurs no less in one module just waiting to be run. I must have been a sleep at the wheel here. This is the perfect bit of madness to torment my PC's with!<br />Yup I'm going to be ordering this series of modules ASAP! Thanks to Patrick Wetmore for making my day a bit more awesome! You'll be getting my cash soon!

fantasy &nbsp;old school sandbox that I've loved. Those efforts have been interesting and have made up the bulk of this blog. One of the key books for this has been Underworld Kingdom Volume One Explorers Of The Unknown.<br />Why? Because in twenty pages it adds a whole background of material that can be dropped in, plugged into, and generally enhance an existing campaign.<br />Here's what's in this twenty page bad boy:&nbsp;</span></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Finally the first Underworld Kingdom campaign booklet is available!</span></span></span></b></span></b></div> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: left;">It contains some new rules and guidelines, 200 random names, quirks, prophecies, mutations and equipment lists, ready to be used in your Old School Gaming Campaign. There's a lot here to take in even in twenty pages and its very well done. This is a very nice set of tools to take out and add into your OSR sand box. Over the last couple of months I've been quietly getting into the mode of non brand post apocalyptic generic gaming an idea that I've been quietly thinking about. The quietly filing off of the various brand names of the old school veterans and doing pretty much what my imagination limits me too. This is one of those tool boxes that can easily help.</span></span></b></div> </span></span></span></b><br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><b>This book lays out more options for a DM to use in campaign construction and adventure design easily, concisely, and without a hint of an over arching campaign or any style of world. Its generic and solid in what it does and does it all in twenty pages. </b></span></span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-weight: bold; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div> <b><div style="text-align: center;"> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> In twenty pages the author lays down without an ounce of background fluff and fuss everything you as a DM are going to need to get the job done of adding in a bit more spice to your on going sand box and does it with style. </span> <span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">I've always loved this book because of what it represents, one guy's efforts to get his passion distilled into an OSR product that can fit any style of adventure writing. And it shows. A very nicely done little piece of sleight of hand writing that has a very well done old school tool box that can be added right into your sandbox for more PC and adventure location options. At the moment its free and a pretty nice little download at lulu.</span></span></span></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">That being said I'd buy the print version as well after taking the free material for a test drive. I'm aware that there is a second volume and more of the authors efforts on the market. So this is going to come in very handy in the next couple of weeks as I gear up for my Winter campaign. My advise is to grab both volumes and throw the author some coin so we'll see more in the coming years. </span></span></span></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></span></b></div> </b></div> <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/2014/10/review-and-commentary-on-free-download.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2014/10/review-and-commentary-on-free-download.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2014-10-24T09:13:00-07:00'>9:13&#8239;AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2014/10/review-and-commentary-on-free-download.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=3066281044215395177&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=3066281044215395177&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=3066281044215395177&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Thovas Thoon sits near the post apocalyptic Martian poles around the swamp lands and is one of the last basitons of civilization before the deep post apocalyptic Martian swamp wastelands. These areas are home to a wide variety of tribes, red men, green warriors, mutant and worse.<br />This area sits right on the edge of the Lovecraftian Serpent Men's territories and city states. The peaks of their ruins and temple pyramid complexes can be seen over the tops of the massive trees and the mix of &nbsp;ruins that still tower over the jungles here.<br />Many of these former city state ruins were left abandoned here after the fall of entropic bombs, Atomics, and worse was used in the conflict that devastated Mars.<br />The players in tonight's game found themselves deep in the streets of the city state after following a party of alien bounty hunters &amp; assassins that they've been tracking after a blood feud has been brewing between the two groups after a heated battle upon another world. After a pitched battle on the streets of a star port, the PC's gave chase through a dimensional door and found themselves on the streets of Thovas Thoon. The red Martian Incan warriors gave them their first clue. The PC's needed to re epuip after the alien bounty hunters gave them the slip down a series of side streets.<br />The PC's found themselves at the city's Grand Bazaar and after a very heated deal with a low land Red money lender and his Green Martian body guard. They ended up exchanging a good deal of their treasure for credits and Martian money. This was a pretty damn one sided deal however and they weren't happy at all.&nbsp;</span></b></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">They began to explore the streets of Thovas Thoon and were quite surprised at the number of mutants and rabble about in the city which seemed to have very low life and slightly seedy quality to the city. There were several duels and one gun fight that caused the party to beat tracks.<br />Just after they ducked for cover they spotted an assassin that they had tangled with from a distance. This bastard was Vothus Hal a were rat Red assassin that they had tangled with long ago. He had ties to the alien bounty hunters they were tracking earlier. And so began a merry chase down the crooked streets of Thovus Thoon. More coming soon.&nbsp;</span></b></div> <b><u><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></u></b><br /> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b> <b><u><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Random City State Street Encounters 1d10&nbsp;</span></u></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><u><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></u></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <ol> <li style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Red men Inca like warriors 2nd level fighters equipped with blasters &amp; power flint swords +2&nbsp;</span></b></li> <li style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Greys technicians 1d4 armed with wands of pain 1d3, 2 hit points each&nbsp;</span></b></li> <li style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Thork warriors 4 hit points each &amp; very intelligent.

Here are a few of those locations that serve to haunt wastelands and some of the horrors that can be visited upon adventurers during their expeditions into the wastes.&nbsp;</span></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><u><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1d10 Random Haunted &nbsp;Post Apocalyptic Fallout Shelters Location Table</span></u></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <ol> <li><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A three tiered bolt hole and vault that is now inhabited by a pack of 1d8 zombies. This horrid family of the ancient crawls from the churning ground and seeks vengeance upon those who survived. The location has been ransacked of most food but there is some sundries. There is also a map to several other such locations in the area though.&nbsp;</span></b></li> <li><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A hidden door in the side of a hill promises some rich pickings but there are several recent skeletons around the area. A weird cannibal spirit is said to haunt the area and guard its rich treasures of artifacts very well. Any items recovered here are said to be cursed. In actuality, this military style bunker is haunted by a very crafty wight who haunts the area. He uses military tactics and gear to terrorize the place.&nbsp;</span></b></li> <li><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This area is the center for a wide array of haunting activity and lights seen at night. The has been eerie pre apocalyptic rock music echoing through the wilds on certain nights. The place is actually the center of a minor cult of necrotic &nbsp;worshipers who summon the spirits of their ancient ancestors. The whole fallout shelter has been converted into a minor temple. There will be 1d8 undead horrors haunting the place.&nbsp;</span></b></li> <li><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">An ancient radio signal echoes from this location where there is nothing at all. On certain days weird witch lights can be seen from a distance. This place is in fact haunted by a very deranged A.I. who is still carrying out its last orders. The thing has a bunch of combat bots made up as 'spirits' but the place is a rich loot area. The bunker is a three floor location in the ground.&nbsp;</span></b></li> <li><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This location is said to be the be haunted location where thousands died and their spirits still cry out for vengeance. There is a mass grave nearby but the place is actually one of the last stands for a small group of Ancient soldiers who used the undead as terror weapons. These horrors still haunt the location and on nights of the full cracked moon ride out on nightmares to hunt the living .They haunt a small fallout shelter that still houses their spirits and has the military weapons that they use. These undead soldiers will be accompanied by 1d4 insane ghosts of the ancients.&nbsp;</span></b></li> <li><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A group of 1d8 ghostly soldiers of the Ancients is looking to press gang any living that they find for their unending war in Hell. These horrors will seek to drag any living that they find to the Hell mouth fallout shelter entrance. Most days the shelter appears to be ordinary if unpleasant.&nbsp;</span></b></li> <li><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This shelter was recently uncovered by the weather and any playing around with the lock mechanisms will release 1d10 zombies of the ancients upon the world. The location is prime looting material as the shelter has never been disturbed. &nbsp;</span></b></li> <li><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This fallout location exists in the land of the living as well as the dead and anyone crossing the space to get to it may 20% chance find themselves in the Lands of the Recently Dead. They will be assaulted by 1d6 minor undead things and must fight their way back. The shelter and its contents will beckon the next pack of adventurers, unless they find their way inside. The place is packed floor to ceiling with weird machinery still running on a small atomic pile responsible for the effect. There are also some minor artifacts as well.&nbsp;</span></b></li> <li><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The area is said to be haunted by some ancient evil of horrid aspect. There is a fall out shelter nearby only recently uncovered by the wind and rains. The shelter is infact the lair for a gang of mutant bandits whose mutations mirror the effects of the undead. A fact that they take great advantage of. There are 1d10 3rd level fighters and some military weapons that they are using.&nbsp;</span></b></li> <li><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Chanting, ghostly lights, and weird illuminations in the sky have been seen in the area.<br />This fallout shelter is the lair for a pack of Lovecraftian ghouls who have recently been scouting out nearby communities to kidnap and take with them back into the darkness of the Earth.

It takes a party of first level adventurers into the Underworld and gives them all of the old school action they can handle and then some. This is a down and dirty dungeon crawl that presents exactly what it says on the tin and then some.&nbsp;</span></b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="background-color: white;"><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The ideas here are clearly marked out and the crawl has some interesting twists and turns. The other aspect of this crawl that also makes it of interest is the customization factor here. As it stands this is actually a family friendly little adventure but can easily be reworked as the DM sees fit and that is one of this retroclone systems's strengths.&nbsp;</span></b></span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="background-color: white;"><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">For a pay what you want adventure the DM gets two levels of play and a whole lot of challenging bits for the PC's. This one will take the characters into the heart of a minor bit of darkness &amp; enable them to adventure with some solid OSR material behind them.&nbsp;<span style="text-align: left;">I like that the wandering monster charts include creatures that have a maximum count - if the party has defeated the max number, they won't occur again. You just don't see this as often as you should.</span></span></b></span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="background-color: white; text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b></span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="background-color: white; text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">My biggest complaint is the font style for this adventure which is a pain in the neck. That having been said its a very minor point.&nbsp;</span></b></span></div> <span style="background-color: white; text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: center;"> Small note is the 'I' in the monster&nbsp;entries&nbsp;is their&nbsp;Initiative.&nbsp;</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> Over all the PC's are not going to find this adventure a push over and even a second level set of characters is going to find this one a challenge. The ideas and background are very well done. Its a very concise dungeon which is meant to be played with the Blue Holme retroclone. It will take a bit of down and dirty converting to use this one with your favorite retroclone system but I think its well worth it.&nbsp;</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> All in all its a pretty solid adventure that should keep a group of players very busy for at least a couple of sessions. I really enjoyed the hell out of the adventure. &nbsp;</div> </span></b></span><br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> </div> </div> <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/2014/10/commentary-and-revisit-to-pay-what-you.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2014/10/commentary-and-revisit-to-pay-what-you.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2014-10-21T05:12:00-07:00'>5:12&#8239;AM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2014/10/commentary-and-revisit-to-pay-what-you.html#comment-form' onclick=''> 4 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=6679585087228089468&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=6679585087228089468&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=6679585087228089468&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

Anyone stepping near this ring of stones will have to deal with hulking insane beast thing that haunts this place. Each and every pylon is inscribed with the name of some ancient demonic prince from a dead world. The ring is said to grant forbidden knowledge to those who sleep in its shadow if they survive.

The thing will be surrounded by a pool of acidic water like liquid. The stuff will burn as a mild acid anything that touches the monolith. There will 1d8 ancient demonic guardian things circling around this thing in the sky. They will attack anyone getting to close to it.
