#RPGaDay2024, The other topics… Days 25 to 30

Here it is, the last speed round of the month. It’s time to catch up on days 25 to 30. The regular daily posts have all been on the themes of Skala Wyzwania’s alternative prompt challenge list. These are my shorter answers to the regular prompts. I hope you find them enlightening.

Day 25: Desirable dice – So many dice, so little time. This is a recent want, but I saw them and just wanted them—the D&D 50th Anniversary Holmes Retro Replica & Modern Inspired Set by Fanroll. If anybody wants to gift them, message me, and I’ll give you my address.

Day 26: Superb screen – I don’t often use GM Screens, but when I do, I prefer the World’s Greatest Screen by Hammer Dog Games, specifically the landscape version. Customizable screens are just the best. I own two.

Day 27: Marvelous miniature – The D&D Icon of the Reals: Gargantuan Tiamat by WizKids. Stretching the definition of a “miniature”, this humongous sculpture of the Queen of Dragons is marvelous. Here’s another gift you may get me if you feel very generous.

Day 28: Great gamer gadget—I have this! I backed the Kickstarter, and I love it. The Hexcrawl Toolbox is a series of hex tiles for creating worlds and running hex crawls. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

Day 29: Awesome app—I know it will be D&D Beyond for many people. Don’t get me wrong; I have a subscription and own a few (just a few!) of the books there. It is good, but as I am currently running Savage Worlds, my favorite “app” is Savaged.us, a suite of tools to run Savage Worlds. It is very useful.

Day 30: Person you’d like to game with – I’d like to play with the man who created this blog, the Stargazer himself! I’ve known Michael for so many years, and we’ve never gamed together. I’d love to sit at a table and game with him.

You may ask yourself, what about day 31? I have a special post planned for that. See you tomorrow.

Welcome, reader; thanks for taking the time to discover who I am! My name is Roberto, although I usually go by Sunglar online. I am a longtime tabletop RPG player, primarily a GM for the better part of that time; some will say that’s because of my love of telling a good story, others because I’m a control freak, but that’s debatable. I was born and raised in Puerto Rico, an island in the Caribbean with a small but active gaming community. I’ve played RPGs for almost 40 years, and for most of that time, I played D&D in all its permutations, including Pathfinder and D&D 5th edition. Other games our regular gaming group plays include Mutants & Masterminds, Castles & Crusades, Savage Worlds, Stars Without Number, Alien, and more. I have played many games through the years and plan to play many more. I am a compulsive homebrewer and rarely play a campaign I have not created myself. You can follow me on social media as Sunglar, and I’m regularly active on Facebook where you can find me posting regularly in the Puerto Rico Role Players group. I am looking forward to hearing from you!
