100%. It's a capsule RPG and a perfect introduction to a classic setting and unique game.
I am so envious. I'm running Pendragon at the moment but RuneQuest is my favourite.
Epic. Love player-driven heroquests at initiate level.
A glamour campaign sounds awesome. Are the players rune-level and did they start at initiate level?

If you are intrigued by Pendragon but don't want to commit to the monolith that is the Great Pendragon Campaign, the original 80s game is a rules-light masterpiece full of chivalric vibes, worth checking out at PDF tier at the very least!

Dragon of Thunder Hills (RuneQuest)

Forge of Fury (D&D 3e/5e)

White Hair (Best Left Buried)

Horror on the Hill (Basic D&D)

I don't think there are that many good pre-published dragon adventures.
Now to complete 6e... 👀
Dragonmeet for TTRPG focus instead of primarily board game. New venue this year but for the last six years I've not regretted going.
Tbh, life stuff has got in the way. But I agree the series isn't concluded. 😊
Most RuneQuest players cut their teeth on RQ2 and 3. Those games had a lot more blank spaces before decades of excellent published worldbuilding. So don't be afraid to build scenarios without research. Flick open to a random paragraph or lore and turn that into an adventure.
I know anti-canon is popular in the OSR. So this is officially my "hot take".

...but seriously, if you backed the RQ Humble Bundle and haven't checked out the books, skip the core rulebook and dive straight into the Mythology book (and subsequent Cult books). They're cooking at Chaosium.
Drafting my own blog response to this, but really ttrpg religion hasn't been beat since Glorantha in the 70s.

RQG's Mythology book is a primer on doing religion right. From the mundane rituals to the cosmic conflicts.. but most importantly it drives engaging tabletop play!
In RuneQuest, you literally sacrifice your magical power / soul to your god in seasonal worship ceremonies to get new spells and a larger casting pool. That on top of gifts, geases, duties and temple sponsorship is amazing.
RuneQuest's Cults (divine), Shamans (spirits) and Sorcerers (arcane) are the gold standard

Different magic systems.. different progression arcs.. different strength/weaknesses.. and mechanics that reinforce theme.

Absolutely insane how much the system has fucked you around...

Hopefully your open letter gets to someone who can make an impact.
I implore people to read and share Reece's story.

Absolutely heartbreaking that our country is failing to support people impacted by this illness still, several years later.

And if anyone has any advice that can help Reece receive the support he needs - I'm sure it would be appreciated.
An open letter to Keir Starmer:

Slightly different from my normal blogs! I wanted to send the UK Prime Minister a message about my struggles with #LongCovid and PIP, but the #No10 website only allows short messages. So it's Public: reecednd.blogspot.com/2025/03/open...

Open Letter to Prime Minister Starmer
This letter was meant for Keir Starmer and his government, but Downing Street’s 1,000-character limit silenced me. So I’m sharing it publicl...

Yeah, I saw that. Makes no sense to me...

I also can't buy the version I want (leatherette) so will just have to wait another month. 🙃
Seems like the PDF-only version and the leatherette aren't up yet. Are they coming today?
I'm gutted I couldn't go. Looks great!
Thanks! I really should since the final post goes through my process for building the pointcrawl from scratch.

The issue is I am running a lot of games right now and selfishly my games take priority over my blogging.

Promise to get back to it when I'm less busy!
