@Tomovasky13 Hmmm. I have about half of these from a previous bundle.

BUT I only have half of these from a previous bundle...

Finished the first book on my #SummerReadingList - Station Eternity by @MurHerself

It's a cozy (well, up to a point) #scifi murder #mystery set on an alien space. Cool setting, fun characters, and a great payoff at novel's end.

My thoughts on upgrading to the are up on Nuketown.

Short answer, it's a hell of an upgrade, especially when you're coming from an ancient iPad Air.

@gangrif Agreed. I've been very pleased with how well it works for drawing. At some point I'll post my replay of Zork ... and the map I created for it using Freeform on the iPad.

I haven't had that much fun taking notes for a video game since high school and Ultima IV.

@gangrif Nice! I've been using Procreate for some ad hoc maps, combined with Inkarnate (a web app).

Time to flex those brain muscles and get READING! ... it's Nuketown's 17th annual Summer Reading List.

Includes books by and

Turns out, the list wasn't quite done yet (but then again, the list is never REALLY done until the end of the summer).

I added The Long Tomorrow by Leigh Brackett (hat tip to @grueproof), a post-apocalyptic novel which fits well with our summer.

There's also the Solo Game Master's Guide, which I picked up at in 2023, started reading, but got distracted by life/work/other projects Given a certain solo/co-opt game we've got cooking, now seems like a good time to pick it up again (and to use the Summer Reading list to finish it).

And then there's the book about a place that was synonymous with summer when I was a kid in New Jersey in the 1980s:

Action Park: Fast Times, Wild Rides, and the Untold Story of America’s Most Dangerous Amusement Park by Andy Mulvihill and Jake Rossen

@Acantigue It's a funny book; definitely worth reading for anyone who ever went to (or saw the after effects of) Action Park.

Spending a not-so-lazy afternoon working on my campaign for . The Heroes of Hope are battling their way through corrupt Hool Wastes, fighting demons, undead, and worse.

Naturally, I need to find a few more enemies for them to fight. Good thing I brought a few books...

@ipr Oh - this looks cool! I've had a blast playing RPGs with my kids when they were younger (I still play with my 17 year old and his friends every summer).

Experimenting with using #DnDBeyond to create a custom black dragon for my #ElementalApocalypse.

Morsinth - the Creeping Death - is is an adult black dragon ... and with the shadow dragon template and the spell-casting variant.

I may beef up the spellcasting; I find those rules to be underwhelming in 5e.

I just won DriveThruRPG bingo as I went to purchase Dragons! Vol 1: Chromatic Dragons ...and found I already own it!

The great thing about Dragons! is that it has incremental ages for your draconic villains, so re-introducing Very Young, Juvenile, Young Adult, Old, Wyrm, and Great Wyrm.

I like having the gradations of dragons, because jumping straight from "Young" to "Adult" is a great way to get a Total Party Kill.

And really, I'd like them to sweat things a bit before meeting their doom.

I hadn't realized that when you customize monsters in #DnDBeyond, you can edit the underlying markup for special abilities.

This allows your custom monster's attributes to still be rollable, which in turn means we can send them to Roll20 via the Beyond20 extension for Firefox and Chrome:
