Dark Matter Equipment In Progress
Added 2018-04-01 05:30:59 +0000 UTCI'm almost insulted any of you thought that you could be rid of me so easily! No; as you all know, I'm bound to this website phylactery and likely shall never escape.
However, to celebrate two years of successful Patreon, I bring you a look at the Equipment chapter of Dark Matter, which you'll find quite useful when rolling up a Gadgeteer.
Our dumb April Fool's goof, preserved for posterity:
Years pass over here
Turn to ash ere farewell voiced
Blood spills game of bliss
I can't believe we made it to two years on Patreon. Exactly two years ago we started this thing, and everyone's support has been amazingly strong ever since.
As an extra bonus gift, I wanted to show off something we've been working on. It's not finished yet, but I think you'll all appreciate it:
This book of Postmodern Haikus represents everything we love about gaming: the freedom to express yourself, the majesty of language, and specific and arbitrary mechanical constraints.
And with that, I (The Finger) am saying goodbye. I'm taking an indefinite hiatus to focus on my real passion of haikus. (Making gaming content was only a temporary stopgap on the way to professionally writing poetry, as it is for so many writers). I'm leaving care of the blog and Patreon in the hands of the Palm, who I'm sure will pursue only the best ideas in my absence. Take care, all!

Really enjoying the Dark Matter material!

2018-05-11 10:42:14 +0000 UTCSo do blasters and firearms from high seas count as ranged weapons for the purposes of archery fighting style or the sharpshooter feat?

2018-04-08 01:52:29 +0000 UTCIt would be godawfully useful to a campaign of Dark Matter I'm playing in right now if hoverbikes and chainsaws were in that equipment list...

2018-04-02 00:59:40 +0000 UTCYeah, it shouldn't have a special property -- that was a holdover from old versions of the weapon
Mage Hand Press
2018-04-02 00:35:57 +0000 UTCGood catch. Shall be fixed

2018-04-02 00:35:28 +0000 UTCThe haiku about the Fighter says "melee martial weapons" instead of "martial melee weapons"

2018-04-01 15:04:24 +0000 UTCShould the Blitz Cannon be marked as a 'Special' weapon, because it's not mentioned in the 'Special' weapon ability section?
