(https://discord.gg/jWF9BbF) REVIEWS HAMMERFIST #1 Writer: Rick Remender Artist: Steve Epting Publisher: Image Comics Cover Price: $5.99 Release Date: August 26, 2026 Meet MIKE DENTON: a dirtbag hitman, junkie, and absentee father who's spent his life chasing the easy fix — drugs, cheap sex, and murder for money — while failing the one person who still believes he can be better: his daughter. Now, on the eve of BLACK NOON — an ancient darkness that erases the light in all things — Mike has to drag himself out of the gutter, awaken a supernatural weapon powered only by love, and fight his way through the living embodiment of evil to save her. PROJECT PERSEUS #1 Writer: Jack Mulqueen Artist: Edison Neo Publisher: Vault Comics Cover Price: $3.99 Release Date: Sep 2, 2026 It's a race against time! When a disgraced member of a cryptid hunting squadron vanishes with a time-traveling apparatus, Slug Stephens must sober up from a decade-long bender to track down an all-too-familiar friend turned foe. With a legendary lineup of cover artists, featuring Esad Ribíc, Brett Bean, Pete Carroll, Jorge Corona, and more, Jack Mulqueen (Nightlife Noir) and Edison Neo (TMNT, Godzilla) bring readers a stylish and hilarious adventure across treacherous jungles, frozen oceans, and deadly dive bars. TRADE DISCUSSION H.P. LOVECRAFT'S THE CALL OF CTHULHU Writer/Artist: Gou Tanabe Publisher: Dark Horse Comics Cover Price: $19.99 What links together two bands of worshippers, one deep in the Arctic snows, one hidden in the bayous of Louisiana, is more than their shared practice of blood sacrifice. It is the inhuman phrase they both chant: Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'yeh wgah'nagl fhtagn--"In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming." Now these nightmares will disturb the sanity of Francis Thurston, a young man pursuing an investigation into the cult of Cthulhu that leads to the most forsaken spot in the vast Pacific...and to Earths supreme terror, the risen corpse-city of Rlyeh.

Welcome to the Summer Conversations, a short series of podcasts in which I welcome a guest who brings their own topic of interest and we have a chat. The recordings are done in under one hour, barely edited, and released without fanfare.Episode 4: Finding Your Table — Building a Gaming Club That LastsHow do you grow a tabletop community from twenty strangers into seventy-one paying members with two regular game nights? Brian McKay joins Che to share how the Northside Adventure Gamers Association in Brisbane pulled it off — incorporating as a nonprofit, securing a permanent home in a state school library, and running tables across everything from D&D 5e to Cthulhu to Dungeon Crawl Classics. Plus: managing player flow between tables, keeping table identities intact, and why finding your own space changes everything about how people show up at the game. This one's for anyone who's dreamed of building more than just a campaign — this is about building a home for other players too.Big thanks to Brian for coming on the show!NAGA Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/NorthsideAdventureGamersNAGA Public listing of games: https://public.naga.net.au/NAGA website to log in and book games: https://login.naga.net.au/index.php#Game on!Roleplay Rescue Details:Voice Message:speakpipe.com/roleplayrescuePatreon:patreon.com/rpgrescue Email:roleplayrescue@pm.meBlogroleplayrescue.com Bluesky Social:https://bsky.app/profile/ubiquitousrat.bsky.socialLogo and artwork by MJ Hiblen:https://www.patreon.com/MJHiblenART/ Hosted on Acast.

Darren Grimes and Graham Dunlop launch their new Grimoire platform, a global book club built around 250 plus professionally narrated audiobooks, lunar-cycle book picks, and community participation. They also demo a new online Pegs and Jokers game, whil e walking through the shelves of the library and explaining how free access, founder memberships, and the inner sanctum work. https://pegsandjokers.ca/ https://www.skool.com/the-secret-teachings-book-club-1875   In this episode, Darren and Graham cover the launch setup, the membership model, and the structure of the new book club. They also preview the first book of the month, discuss how the shelves are organized, and share the thinking behind the game and the community features. Key topics In this episode: the Grimoire launches with more than 250 audiobooks, with the library expected to grow to around 260 soon. The free book of the month is The Secret Teachings of All Ages in an abridged edition, chosen because starting with the full 36 hour version would be too much for most listeners. Founder keeper and monthly initiate memberships unlock the full library, while the free tier gives access to the monthly featured book and community activity. The book club is organized around lunar cycles, with a new moon monthly pick and a full moon live read, creating a rhythm of one book per moon month. The community model includes chapter check-ins, passage discussions, Friday tangents, and a final live book council in the last week of each book month. Darren and Graham describe the inner sanctum as a deeper, earned area of the platform, accessible through participation rather than payment alone. The shelves span Hermetica and occult, theosophy, mysticism east and west, Atlantis and Fortiana, mind and prosperity, weird fiction, philosophy and classics, magic, and power and propaganda. They highlight standout titles such as The Purple Cloud, The Machine Stops, Atlantis by Ignatius Donnelly, The Book of Thoth, Psychic Self-Defense, The Power of Positive Thinking, and The Road to Serfdom. Graham demos Pegs and Jokers, explaining how the online version works, how the cards move pieces, and why it is meant to be played with friends and family across locations. They mention the platform is still being cleaned up and reorganized, including moving some books between shelves and adding PDFs and other support material.   Become a Lord or Lady with 1k donations over time.

Pour comprendre The White Ship, publié en français sous le titre Le Bateau Blanc (et plus rarement Le Vaisseau Blanc), il faut se plonger dans la facétieuse oeuvre de Lord Dunsany, et en particulier dans sa nouvelle de fantasy intitulée “Idle Days on the Yann”.Dans cet épisode : HPL part en expédition jusqu'à Boston, ST Joshi désavoue la poésie de Lovecraft, et Dunsany fait montre de la plus distinguée des diplomaties. Errata : L'hôtel où se déroule la conférence de Dunsany à Boston est le Copley Plaza, et non le Corey PlazaLe Cook qui rend visite à Lovecraft est W. Paul Cook, et non pas Paul W. Cook. Frédéric sera dûment châtié pour ses erreurs. Il existe bien un groupe de musique états-unien nommé Cathuria qui a publié un album intitulé The White Ship (sic).

Was haben die süßen Oktolinge von Nintendo zu tun mit dem nicht-so-süßen Cthulu vom alten H.P. Lovecraft? Irgendwie überraschend viel. Das finden wir in dieser Folge raus, in dem wir uns zum einen The Mound anschauen. Das ist das neue Spiel von ACE Team aus Chile, die sich einen Namen gemacht haben mit maximal seltsamen Spielen wie Clash: Artifacts of Chaos oder Eternal Cylinder, und sich jetzt an einem Koop-Shooter im Horror-Universum von Cthulu versuchen. Und dann ist da noch Splatoon Raiders. Eigentlich war die Splatoon-Reihe vor allem ein kompetitiver Multiplayer-Shooter. Jetzt wird es aber zu einem Looter-Shooter, einem Nintendo-Diablo (oder eher: Warframe) für Solo-Spieler*innen und Koop-Freunde. Kann das gelingen? Reden wir drüber!

Café Fandango supo ser un podcast de videojuegos alguna vez, pero esos dorados años ya han quedado en el pasado. Por ejemplo, uno diría que el episodio 619 del podcast tiene importantes noticias que afectan a la industria, y discusiones sobre su impacto. Pero la realidad es que lo más importante que se charla en este programa es si Biff Tannen era templario y si Ranma tiene un calendario menstrual. Además, vas a escuchar a Edu que finalmente terminó el Elliot y continúa vaciando cuentas bancarias en el Football Manager. Seba, por su lado, estuvo volviéndose loco buscando alguien que lo acompañe jugando al The Mound Omen of Cthulhu. Después pasamos a las noticias donde... no pasó casi nada. Cerramos con la Pregunta Fandango, que busca adornar nuestras ciudades con estatuas videojuegiles.

We have tiers as low as $2 a month, or $24 a year, or $240 a decade, or… well, tell you what, you tell me how long you plan on living, and I'll help you budget things so you can continue to support this fantastic community of friends, collaborators, and sometimes even enemies-to-lovers. (I mean, it's not impossible that that could happen.) And listen guys– if monetary support isn't in the cards for you? A like, a share, a referral, a nomination, engagement on spotify, engagement on Discord… all of those points of contact truly do make a significant difference.

Try playing for small, personal stakes. One person, maybe not even life or death, maybe just their ability to continue living the life they thought they knew. Threat/Antagonists What to do instead of cults? Instead of a big monster? Think antagonist rather than villain Or little monsters that do horrible things when they gang up on you (gnomes, puppets, dolls, cloud of vampiric gnats, etc) Try a scenario where the threat is unconventional – I've done a few where the threat is basically just a spell, that exists, but it draws people in and ruins them Pacing If you usually do long, leisurely multi-session scenarios, try a tight 1 or 2 hour event that starts fast and doesn't let up. You can check out No Time to Scream as a place to start. Structure and Clue Trail Shoutout to Heinrich – start the scenario *after* the bad thing has already happened Emphasize or de-emphasize the clue trail In a short scenario, try fewer “Acts” Try improv – Players can do this too, leave your background blank and fill it in as you go, or roll randomly and make it fit the emerging story Tone Pulse-pounding vs. cerebral, quiet and sad, loud and shooty, comic, uncomfortable Singing! An opera/sung-through-musical Setting: Try a new time in a familiar place, or a new place in a familiar time Give your brain lots of new things to explore Try Pulp in any setting For Players Play a totally different kind of investigator: brainy vs. brawny, different social background, different approach to solving problems See what happens if you don't optimize for the traditional Cthulhu skills; Keepers, are you willing to reward a player who puts points in Climb, Swim, Throw, and Track?

Ravenloft is a setting built on fear, tragedy, and impossible choices. Naturally, we spent the first ten minutes arguing about whether Florida is its own Domain of Dread, listening to Ash tell a story about getting magically demoted from noble to peasant, and debating whether "lofting ravens" is a real phrase. Honestly, the Dark Powers couldn't have written a better introduction. Show Notes In Part 3 of our review of Ravenloft: The Horrors Within, we finally leave the player options behind and dive into the heart of the setting itself. Wizards of the Coast dramatically expands the Domains of Dread, providing campaign frameworks, detailed gazetteers, new maps, Dark Lord stat blocks, horror advice, Tarokka options, and enough adventure hooks to keep a party terrified for months. We begin by exploring the overall structure of the book and immediately appreciate how much more usable it is than Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft. Every major domain now includes lore, locations, horror themes, campaign outlines, one-shot adventures, and, perhaps most importantly, fully realized stat blocks for the Dark Lords themselves. No more "just use the Spy stat block." From Barovia to Lamordia, we tour some of Ravenloft's most iconic locations. We revisit Strahd's eternal torment, explore the political nightmare of Borca, marvel at Darkon's crumbling reality, survive Falkovnia's endless zombie siege, admire Har'Akir's gorgeous redesign, and gush over Lamordia's expanded support. Along the way we discover that some Domains received spectacular glow-ups while others inspired... spirited debate. Not every addition lands equally. The panel spends considerable time discussing Innsmouth and Cthulhu's inclusion, questioning whether cosmic horror fits Ravenloft's core theme of ironic punishment and personal damnation. The conversation turns into an entertaining deep dive on what actually makes a Dark Lord compelling and why some monsters work better as unknowable forces than boss encounters. By the end of the episode, one thing is clear: even with a few controversial choices, The Horrors Within dramatically improves Ravenloft as a campaign setting. Better maps, better adventures, better stat blocks, and substantially more support make this feel like the definitive version of the Domains of Dread. Key Takeaways The setting chapters are the standout portion of the book. Every major Domain of Dread receives significantly expanded support compared to Van Richten's Guide. Every major Dark Lord finally has a unique stat block worthy of an epic confrontation. New maps, campaign outlines, and one-shot adventures make the book far easier to run. Tarokka cards now tie directly into individual Domains and Dark Lords, adding flavorful campaign tools. Horror guidance remains solid, especially for GMs running gothic horror for the first time. Several redesigned Domains, especially Har'Akir and Lamordia, receive high praise for their presentation and atmosphere. Innsmouth and Cthulhu spark the episode's biggest debate, with questions about whether cosmic horror belongs in Ravenloft's established mythology. Lamordia emerges as one of the panel's favorite sections thanks to its expanded lore, updated locations, and memorable adventure hooks. Despite a handful of criticisms, the group considers the setting material a substantial improvement over previous Ravenloft sourcebooks. Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.
