    2 of my favorite projects I've ever been a part of! I did spot art on Errant (including trim on cover) and the Cover for all of the Brighthammer Booklets! A trip seeing them all together!

    I picked up Brighthammer and the Fate Mill die after this video and I’ve been having so much fun with them-along with your Solo GM Guide. Thanks for sharing these gems with us, as always. 😊

    Awaiting the material to be in the description.
    Was looking at Errent the other day, I liked some of the systems I saw debating getting it
    This story felt like a big vision trip, a trial of the bard.

    • @GeekGamers01
      @GeekGamers01  Рік тому +1

      Thanks for pointing that out. Description fixed. I like your characterization of the story that developed. Agreed. It felt trippy in the end...In this vid, I focused on Errant for the spells but it has a bunch of other things in that are useful for soloists such as basic procedures for travel or downtime, for example. What it does not have is an extensive bestiary (though it does have rules for eating monsters). There are about 10 monsters in the book, some with slight variation, as well as rules for creating monsters and importing stats from other systems.

    Loved this so much! I pretty strictly play small rules light games these days. That's all I really have energy or time for at the moment. So I loved getting introduced to another one to try.
    ETA: Just thought about how Brighthammer + Pocket Delver would make a pretty delightful pocket rpg kit. Maybe there's a good pocket oracle with an inspiration table out there too.

    • @GeekGamers01
      @GeekGamers01  Рік тому +1

      Gald you enjoyed and great comment. Pocket Delver is another great little system and while I haven't thought to use with Brighthammer, it does call out for supporting material. I may do a vid on that game in the future.

    ive really been trying to figure out a system thats both dimple enough to do on the go, but engaging enough to not feel boring or overly nebulous.

    • @GeekGamers01
      @GeekGamers01  Рік тому

      That’s a tough order in a small size. Have you played Four Against Darkness. Might be too simple for you depending on your criteria. D100 Dungeon has more detail going on and can also be played out of one book (or more, of course).

      @@GeekGamers01 Hmm maybe. I was trying to do something similar to risus, where its essentially a resource management game with each creature defined by 2-5 resources, with a low total number of stats to remember.
      really, I think the key is to keep the things I have to remember

      The title of the vid wasn’t necessarily meant literally-more meant to suggest portability. There are many games you could play on a laptop itself of course or for analog play you could go with just the basic Four Against Darkness main book, a pad of paper, a pencil, and a dice roller on your phone.
