So what is the Bloodfall TTRPG? It's a sword & sorcery ttrpg (think Elric, Conan, or Fafhrd & The Gray Mouser) that's loosely based on the Cepheus Engine/Mongoose 1st Edition Traveller and our love of 1974 D&D. It is also mostly a dungeoncrawler but has a lot of room to grow out from that featuring heavily hexcrawling, social encounter procedures, and a fully integrated war game. This bit is probably the most important part of what Bloodfall is, a re-unity between tabletop roleplaying and war gaming.

I haven’t had the opportunity to post in quite a while but work on the Bloodfall Campaign System has been proceeding at quite a steady pace. As such I figured that posting to update y’all on this progress would probably be a good idea. So for anyone new reading this for the first time, let’s answer that pressing question: What is the Bloodfall Campaign System? What is the Bloodfall Campaign…

The game is now much more a homage to the old Stormbringer RPG and old Warhammer Fantasy along with the very solid and obvious AD&D influences. The current version of the rule is about 1/3rd or so done, so I…

Some more info and solid update on the development of the Bloodfall TTRPG!

We’ve been making a lot of progress over the past few days since we last updated y’all on the progress on the current build of Bloodfall. We were stuck with very little progress for a little while as we had to do multiple passes on the Profession systems and progression in order for them to make any sense. In the next few days we should be able to finish up designing all of the Novice Professions…

At the end of August, I made a post about an idea for a game engine/dice system. We spent quite a bit of the last month doing pretty extensive playtesting to see if it should replace the d100 based system that we have been developing Bloodfall to work for. After several iterations, we’ve concluded that we are going to be sticking with the d100 hybrid system that we had been developing but we…

Area A8: Ruined Guardroom This room has been stripped bare of all of its furniture leaving the slick mossy stone construction exposed to the elements. The air in this room is hot and heavy, with a sickly sweet smell drafting in from the southern end.
