TTRPG Treasure Chest

Tactical Tuesday: The Next Job

By Glenn Bane

Alright, team, listen up—this isn’t one of those feel-good, wave-the-flag kind of missions. Out there in the Gulf of Atithia, the water’s not calm and neither are the people.

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.

They Huffed and they Puffed…

By Arthur Thomas Worth

Ah, reminiscing about the 80s, I recall the thrilling adventures in the company of friends, amidst an abundance of candy and soda.

It pervaded every corner of existence. Alas,…

Tabletop RPGs are Socially Relevant

By Arthur Thomas Worth

Tabletop role-playing games (RPGs) have been around since the 1970s, and they have only grown in popularity since then. These games are unique in that they allow players to create their own characters and storylines, immersing themselves in a fantasy world of their own choosing. But RPGs are much more than just a game –…
