TTRPG Treasure Chest

Tactical Tuesday: Operation Iron Howl

By Glenn Bane

Alright, listen up, tough guys. You didn’t sign up for this job because it’s easy—you signed up because you know how to handle chaos with a cigarette in your mouth and a gun in your hand. Well, congrats; chaos just knocked.

Tactical Tuesday: Build it Loud, Build it Weird

By Glenn Bane

Alright, soldier, you want a vehicle that’s more than just some rusty old tin can on wheels? You want a ride that’s gonna turn heads, drop jaws, and maybe, just maybe, leave your enemies wondering what the hell just hit them? Then you’re in the right place. These ain’t factory fresh; they’re built, not born. Every bolt and every weld tells a story.

Tactical Tuesday: Meet Your Assets

By Glenn Bane

Alright, strap in, rookie. If you’re rolling with this crew, you better know your assets, inside and out. The team’s got the looks of chaos, but it’s all built on strategy, guts, and gear. Everything in your hands or at your back is what keeps you breathing after the lead starts flying, so you better appreciate it. These tables? They’ll build your squad, gear ‘em up, give ‘em wheels, and show you where and how they operate. Roll, adapt, and survive.

Tactical Tuesday: Join the Best…

By Glenn Bane

Alright, listen up. You don’t call yourself a merc without backing it up. If you’re here, you’re looking for something tougher. Something sharper. You’re sniffing around for a shot at joining them. The mercenary outfit with the kind of reputation that wakes people up in a cold sweat. These guys aren’t your barroom brawlers or wannabe heroes—I’m talking the hardest, leanest pack of professional killers-for-hire you’ll find anywhere. If you don’t have what it takes, stop pretending and scram now, because this crew doesn’t babysit. They break you—or worse—and only the best damned soldiers come out the other end standing.

Tactical Tuesday: Know Your Enemy

By Glenn Bane

Alright, listen up, rookie. You’re running a military campaign, and your players just walked into the wrong stretch of nowhere. They’re not up against an orderly line of enemy troops, but the dirty underbelly of warfare—the shadows of the battlefield. Brigands, marauders, guerrillas, and raiders. They’re not the same breed, so don’t treat ‘em like they are. If you do, your TTRPG loses its edge, and worse, your players won’t respect the danger they bring. You’ve gotta know who they are, what they want, and how to use ‘em if you’re gonna make their lives hell.

Tactical Tuesday: Operation Ruinfall

By Glenn Bane

The story unfolds in the crumbling industrial underbelly of Tasrin City—a swampy, corrupt port town that sweats oil and smog. The squad has commandeered an old factory—what used to be a meat-packing plant during the good times.

Time to Rise and Grind!!

By Glenn Bane

Ladies and Gentlemen, the spectacle of Rumble City may have concluded, but who says the action has to stop? The legendary moments, the jaw-dropping moves, the unforgettable wrestlers—they’re all ready to step back into the spotlight.

Tactical Tuesday #13: Tough as Nails

By Glenn Bane

You’re out here alone. You’re not carrying every weapon Rambo ever used. Pick your gear smart—rifle, sidearm, knife, maybe some explosives if you can handle the spice. The key is mobility. You’re not a juggernaut. You can’t outlast a squad. But you can outrun them, outthink them, and hit them where it hurts before they know you’re there. A speed kill is a clean kill, and clean kills mean you’re still breathing.

By Glenn Bane

the allure of power whispered from a gilded chalice, the promise of glory sealed in an ancient scabbard, the faint pulse of malevolence lurking beneath the innocent façade of a silver ring.

Mazes & Mondays: Heroes v Villains

By Glenn Bane

Every TTRPG campaign, whether it be a rollicking adventure of misfit heroes or a descent into darkness led by schemers and scoundrels, eventually finds itself drawn to these archetypes. The stoic hero and the wicked villain are the twin pillars upon which countless tales rest, but, dear reader, crafting these figures is no simple feat.
