KOBOLDS IN SPACE! (A rules-light TTRPG about spacefaring chaos lizards!)

Kobolds in Space LogoAren’t you tired of high fantasy?

Don’t you ever just want to be a kobold in space?

I made a rules-light TTRPG! It’s about kobolds! They’re in space! You get to play as one and go on adventures to expand the Kobold Empire!

Exclamation points aside, I tried to have it be something with a lot of replay value and significant emphasis on creative storytelling over complex game mechanics. There are four stats (Chaos, Order, Body, and Brains) and every die roll is done with one or two standard six sided dice.

Don’t want to waste time making characters or planning adventures? Ellie made a frikkin adventure generator for this game already! Every time you reload the page it gives you a new group of kobolds, a ship, equipment, a quest, and whatever things intend to get in your way.

It’s “Pay-What-You-Want,” even if what you want to pay is nothing! Check it out!

A lot of friends helped out, including Chris, Cindy, Ellie, Io, Jen, and Will! If you’ve been following what we do here, those names will likely be familiar to you. If not, follow those links or check out our Cast Page for relevant information.

And if you really like KOBOLDS IN SPACE!, perhaps consider signing up for the Patreon for as little as $2 US per month? Proceeds have been going towards paying Jen and Ellie for the writing they’ve done on here. Click the links to see what they’ve done!

Crash’s Course Ep 01: Rounding Damage

In this new series I give short tips on playing TTRPGs (OK, mostly D&D) that I’ve collected over the years. I don’t pretend to be a high and mighty expert, but if some things have helped me then they might help other people as well.

In this first episode, I talk about the benefits of rounding the damage that players do to enemies.

Follow this series on…
