Armor of the Bay

 

Warriors need to have their innards protected. The best way to do that is to wear armor. Here are the common armors in the Birini region.

Cotton

Unprocessed cotton between fabric, creating a very soft armor that dampens impacts and is hard to pierce.

BX 6[13], 50 GP, 100cn

DCC +3, -1, –,d6,50 GP

Lamellar, Porcelain

Pieces of Thrion ceramic overlapping each other creating a hard yet flexible set of armor.

BX 4[15], 50 GP, 440cn

DCC +4, -3, -5’, d12, 50 GP

Leather

Hardened animal hide (typically cow but occasionally mammoth) a cheap and solid way to protect the innards.

BX: 7[12], 20 GP, 200cn

DCC +2, -1,–, d8, 20GP

Plate

Solid bronze, typically they are made somewhat decoratively, showing gleaming metal abs, cod pieces, other features the warrior wishes to accentuate. 

BX 2[17], 500GP, 500cn

DCC +7, -7, -10’,1d12, 500GP

Scale

Small bronze plates overlapping like the protective scales of a serpent.

BX 4[15], 80 GP, 400cn

DCC +5, -3, -5’, d10, 80GP

Shield, Round

BX +1 Bonus, 10GP

DCC +1,-1,–, +1d, 10GP

Shield, Tower

BX +2 Bonus, 40GP

DCC +2,-2,–, +2d,40GP

If using the Partial Armor for Old School Essentials rules use the following formula to create the partial armor for each set.

  • Chest Piece 25% cost and weight. 25AP per +1 armor bonus.
  • Gauntlet 10% cost and weight. 7.5AP per +1 full armor bonus.
  • Helmet 5% cost and weight. 20AP per +1 full armor bonus.
  • Legging 15% cost and weight. 12.5AP per +1 full armor bonus.
  • Pauldron 10% cost and weight. 7.5AP per +1 full armor bonus.

400 New Patches For Mothership

 As someone who collects patches, I love the random patch generator. I decided to think up 400 more to have an even more varied set of outcomes for character creation. These compiled with the ones from the core book can make a d500 Chart for patches.  6 Fingered Hand Abstract Eyeball A Cat Ace of Spades A Cigarette Carton A Dog A Dragon Backpatch Aleph A Meaningless Set of Hanzi Anarchist Star Anatomical Heart Angel Wings Back Patch An Icecream Cone with Rainbow Rings A pair of Dentures A Skull with an Extra Eye Socket Ass A steak covering half of a bruised face.

An unfinished script for a video review of wanderhome

  This was written months ago in a single day it is unfinished and messy and needed to be revised but it was such a release of emotion that I left me satisfied emotionally but not intellectually. I haven't worked on it in a long while so have fun reading this unfinished script. Introduction It is early May 2022, the State of Texas has passed a law classifying parents who let their transgender children transition as child abusers, and requiring the forceful outing of all transgender children to their parents. Soon a game bundle to raise money for transgender advocacy groups in texas is put together on itch. After supporting the bundle I looked through it to see what was included and saw wanderhome. A game I had been recommended in the past but have never picked up. Wanderhome is a game published by Possum Creek Games in April of 2021. It was written by Jay Dragon, illustrated by Letty Wilson, and Sylvia Bi, and layout out by Ruby Lavin. Editing was done by Ruby Lavin, Luke Jordan, a

Bay of Birini

Image
I have recently started work on a bronze age lost world style setting called the Bay of Birini. It's a hex crawl over a 50 x 50 mile area. It uses a bunch of shit from other people because it's a home game thing so I am not gonna post the hexes because a chunk of them are written by other people. Instead here is the plain map and the hex fill procedures that used for the making of it!   Roll 1d24 1-2      Obvious Feature 3           Hidden Feature 4           Obvious and Hidden Feature 1d4 Settlement Monster Lair Weird Dungeon Settlement Roll 2d6 and multiply the results  1     Hermit 2     Thorp 3     Village 4     Village 5     Fort 6     Fort 8     Town 9     Bandit Holding 10     Town 12     Town 15     New Imperial Outpost 16     Religious Commune 18     City 20     Collapsed Imperial Remnants 24     Wizard 25     Dragon 30     Theocracy 36     Kingdom Weird Animal Behavior Magical Feature Treasure Resource Historical Location Hint to nearby Hex Combine 2 Monster Spark Tab
