For any TTRPG people thinking about their first con, attending their first con as an exhibitor, or even (like us) getting ready for their next big ones this year and next, Colin's post-con breakdowns are invaluable.

Do yourself a favour and give them all a read, starting with this one!

Hello UK #TTRPG folks! I need your knowledge!

What TTRPG stores do you know in the UK?

I decided to create (the start of) a compilation of stores that stock TTRPGs. Have a look, and if you know one I've not found yet, please submit it through the form linked on the doc!

Yes this exactly what we mean. If you want everyone in your group to have their own copy, we want to make that a little easier for you. This also makes it easier for people like @friede.bsky.social and @guyintheblackhat.bsky.social and @czamboni.bsky.social to pick up classroom copies.
congratulations on this amazingly successful launch - this rules. quick question - when you say "retailer / coop", do you mean i can join forces with my pals and buy a bunch of copies to share, without being a retailer?

my more recent project started as a list of notes to myself about my own games. how can rulebooks be more accessible? as both a disabled & busy person, long #ttrpg rulebooks are hard!

i made a checklist with lots of tips broken down into work stages for designers!
