A Well Deserved Shout Out

Over at the Tales to Astound! blog a group of guys at my forum get a shout out!  An OSR Forum Makes a Subsector and a well deserved shout out at that. Tales to Astound! quotes from one of the guys (The author of  The BLUEHOLME™ Project) at The Ruins of Murkhill forum who posted this:

Inspired by the Traveller Out-of-the-Box posts on the Tales to Astound! blog and makofan‘s post on the OD&D Discussion forum, what do you think of our chances of putting together a subsector based on the 1977 LBBs? I know we’re a small community, but the recent one-page setting contest seems to show there is enough will and talent here. The only question is whether you’d all be interested in doing something like this for old-school CT.

The idea is that I would prepare the blank map using only the random method in LBB3 (including ’77-style space lanes), and everyone would take it from there to develop their own clusters or individual worlds (in communication with your neighbours if you feel so inclined – we found this was the most fun part when we developed the Spica Sector for Spica Publishing years ago).

Interested?
This is the way it is supposed to work people get inspired to DIY whatever they want by something here and something there! If you have a passion, keeping posting - you never know who or what you may inspire in this wide spread hobby of ours! This project is down in our Rules/Campaigns Projects forum and is titled Space: 1977.

To quote Tales to Astound!:

I can’t wait to see what they come up with!

  1. It's an exciting time for RPGs... much more in the spirit of when I started playing decades ago!
