Pimp Post
There is something slightly useful and interesting at the bottom of the post if you want to go there BUT right now I have to pimp some RPG books I am selling off on eBay to maintain the blessed cash flow.
These are all on sale right now, auctions end on Saturday night (UK time). I will combine postage if you win multiples;

I wrote the title adventure for this and literally no-one is bidding on it. PAIN. Will sign it if you win (if thats your desire).

Mouse Guard! This is signed by Dave Petersen. I have never really understood this system and have just decided now to accept that I never will and will probably never run this.

Fever Swamp! I screwed up the sale of this one last time so apologies for that.

Crypt of the Mellified Mage! People seem waaaay more into this than 'Spire', paaaain. Its got Zedeck, Fiona and the robot rape guy in the period just before he got done for robot rape. Truly a cultural moment.

Carcosa, grab your child-strangling noose and get on board for a series of tables baby!



Forbidden Lands the full box et, untouched with the map with the stickers included. Before there was Mork Borg there was this.

But now there is Mork Borg, here is the fancy black edition from the Kickstarter. I actually had no idea this would be this popular. holy shit.

But I did do a bit of writing for it and am in the credits so if you want it signed I can do that.
Useful table below!
I have been putting together 'Bones of Bukako', the new revised and updated version of 'Feast of Bukako', the ever-growing tome of leveless spells based on inspiration from the False Machine catalogue, and in doing so I assembled this table as an aid.
The time intervals are based on the rate of increase in total spell levels in a standard BX Magic-User, rounded and then expressed in natural language. I'm using including this in the new version and including it as a potentially useful tool for DMs to judge how long Leveless Spells should last based on the levels of the caster.
Mage Level
Short Time (rounds, combat)
Medium Time (turns, exploration)
Long Time
(hours, days)
Very Long Time (curses, transformations)
Ritual Time Required (summoning etc)
