I finally uploaded the fourth extra material for Runner of the Wastelands for the 80$ goal!

This "Extra N4" comes in a zip file. Inside, you will find "Unwritten Actions: Rules for those actions without rules." The idea of these rules is simple: providing a framework to do things outside the core rulebook and previous extra material.

It includes:

An extension of the "everything you do costs 1E" overarching rule (as suggested in the core rules).

A dice pool procedure to include external factors and weave them into the narrative.

A "Do it anyway!" rule to try your luck instead of paying the E cost.

A spark table for failure, success, and the consequences of "Doing it anyway!"

For the fifth goal (the $100 goal), if we reach it, I have the crazy idea to record a soundtrack to listen to while playing Runner of the Wastelands. This will be a major endeavor and will take longer than previous extra materials, so I'm still unsure whether to pursue this idea or not.

Also, I still want to create more focused spark tables for each type of terrain, and at some point, I would like to develop some procedures for factions (which is something I miss in my own game).

If any of this sounds interesting, you can help by buying it, sharing it with your friends, or commenting/reviewing it on itch.io, DriveThruRPG, Wargame Vault, or RPG trader.

I wanted some insect-like beastmen, so I put some spider heads from Wargames Atlantic on some beastman bodies, and for the arms, I used bits from the Frostgrave Gnolls.

Old style:

New Substack post!

This time, I want to share the latest updates to No Peace for the Heathen, my OSR/NSR setting inspired by my country's folklore and history.

After a long hiatus, I'm returning to the bimonthly post schedule on Substack from my new home.

For this comeback post, I want to share the latest updates on my game, "Runner of the Wastelands."

You can find the game here....

and here...

If you want to help me create more content for the game, please share it with your friends or buy a copy to help me reach the next goal!

I just added the new material for Runner of the Wastelands: Rules for prestige, handler, and an extended version of the connect table.

I made these rules to have more gameable pieces to interact with when visiting towns. In particular, I was interested in having an impactful, mechanical way to interact with the "history" of my character as a runner in each town. My vehicle for this was the idea of having a record of the "prestige" of my runner, which directly affects how much I could charge for as a runner, and a new "archetype", the handler, which is there to show one extra way in which the runners impact the societies of the wastelands.

As with all extra rules, these are purely optional, even on a session-to-session basis, as sometimes I want to play the game just with the core rules, and others I need more depth to the mechanics.

If you have played it or want to play Runner of the Wastelands, I would love to know what you think of it!!

HERE YOU CAN FIND THE GAME:

Thinking while drawing, possible ideas for a miniatures game, already thinking of setting and mechanics.

Last week, I played Mordheim with the amazing people from Mordheim Chile at a local game store. It was a three-on-three game, with lots of hits, lots of saves from the brink of death, lucky hits, and incredibly narrative moments ⚔️

"Runner of the wastelands" is an ongoing project, a solo-journaling resource-management TTRPG where you explore the wastes using a hex-map and miniatures in a hex-combat-grid to resolve encounters.

You are a "Runner", a traveler who faces the dangers of the wastelands as a courier between the few cities that still stand. Make people trust you, so that when someone has to send a package, you're the runner they think of.

It is a game I regularly play and that I would like to create more of: more art, more rules, and more tools for it, so that you and I can have the most fun with it.

So, for every 20 bucks that this game makes, or for every 20 reviews/comments (about your experience with the game), I will do one more thing for it.

We have already reached two goals (an oracle and a zoom-in exploration and looting procedure within each hex), and we are now close to the third milestone!!! :)

The game is available for free at Itchio and drivethruRPG.

Perhaps some of you might be interested in playing it?

If you are, I would love to hear about the adventures of your runner! Also, I recommend that you read the adventures of Saari, the meerkat runner, one of the runners who is currently exploring the wastes.

See you on the wastelands!

It was amazingly fun to test this new extra material, and more challenging than the previous one, as this one is intertwined more with the rules of the game. Hope you all enjoy it as much as I have been enjoying it!
