Teylen's RPG Corner

I present to you the new Crowdfunding Collection #138, including every tabletop rpg project started between 03/22 and 03/29.

This week around there are not that many projects, though the one around are quite interesting, thus let’s get to it.

First there is Fading Suns: Pax Alexius offering a new edition of the popular roleplaying game. The project of Ulisses Games does not only offer the corebook, but about over a dozen sourcebooks for the colorful setting and game. I recommend having a look if you like the previous edition or are looking for an science fiction/fantasy game. Gunship is another Science Fiction game, though focused on Space Western. The project offers a look onto the d20 system it uses (for free) and I think the project might be well worth it. Then there’s Teenage Wasteland. A Powered by the Apocalypse game, in which kids got to brave a post-apocalyptic wastelands. The project is interesting enough, though it has a flexible funding goal.
If you are up for a German language game, you should take a look at Scherbenfresser. It’s a storytelling game with a horror focus and I think it offers a quite interesting setting.
Though you might like to check out a gamebook like Retro Quest, it’s just 100 pages but looks quite solid. I consider the Teacher-Gamer Handbook more than solid. It offers a way to integrate tabletop games to teach life skills. I am no teacher myself, though I do consider it intruiging and recommend having a look.
There are of course more projects, like the CAPERS Offworld RPG sourcebook for the Capers RPG. It offers alien, space action, space cops & robbers with a 20s Science Fiction twist and I got an eye on it. There are interesting adventures like Tails of the City for PFRPG or the nifty looking Elite Metal Dice.
You’ll find those and more projects over here:

How to get into the Collection

There are essentially two ways for a project to be included

) I do try to actually find each and every new project. On the one hand, I do use my Crowdfunding Suchliste (It is essentially a list of links). On the other hand, I do try to keep close tabs on several communities, groups, forums, newsletters etc.

) I do have to rely on readers, project creators or fans pointing out projects to be included in the collection. Because several platforms like Patreon, IndieGoGo, Startnext, and more offer no option to enter a search term and look for the newest started project.

If you like to submit a project or your project. There are just a few things to watch:
The project should be somewhat related to tabletop role-playing.
The project should be live and preferably still live when the collection goes up.
The project shouldn’t be included in a previous collection.

Usually, I am happy with any suggestions. It’s as well a method to make sure I include a project which is out of range for my completist approach. As, for example, I don’t include every convention project or every miniature/terrain/map project.
