    Step into a galaxy under occupation where heroism is punished and survival is a way of life.

    A decade after Order 66, the Empire has had time to settle in. Not just with armies, but with laws, checkpoints, informants, and fear. Systems are occupied “for their safety.” Industry is nationalized. Dissidents vanish. Whole worlds are taxed into oblivion, and those in power prosper.

    Shipping lanes are plagued by patrols.
    Bureaucrats seize cargo with a signature.
    People can disappear into the system.
    And what power you believed you had over your own life is gone…
    unless you learn how to move quietly.

    This is an 18+ story-first roleplaying game. Write the stories you want—action, intrigue, romance, slice-of-life, and long arcs—built on consent, collaboration, and respect.

  • Conversations and questions about current, upcoming, and advertised games and the hobby as a whole.

    i would definitely not. dabbling in paid DnD, even my strong belief that storytellers should be allowed to do what they want was tested by the annoyance and expectation of “i am paying for this”.

    any time anyone ever suggested arx be monetized in some way, I broke out in full body shudders

    @Gashlycrumb Also, chances are most of the people you (general not specific) have a problem with have a similar opinion of you so 1) Why would they care? 2) Why would they be surprised? People are allowed to avoid games because of Staff (whether your own issue or in support of someone else) so it seems hypocritical to not allow Staff the same option especially when they’re the one putting in the effort to run the game.

    @tsar I am replying here to get your attention for no reason related to past posts in this thread.

    I just want to say I both appreciate and 😄 over the 🐌 facts I see when I peek at Crimson Compass’s site.

    You’re certainly free to decide this doesn’t match your preference, but it’s not really fair to decry it as a miscarriage of justice.

    A miscarriage of justice? Haha.

    But really, the expectation that everybody gets a turn and the GM doesn’t skip yours because they kinda feel like it is not something that needs to be explicitly stated in a policy. It’s how gaming works. It is fair to decry it as rude fuckery, which is what we talk about here.

    disagree. if you are odious or rude to a staffer, or you no-sell when they try to include you, or you just are high maintenance and take up too much gm time? These are all perfectly valid and fair reasons to skip players, leave them out of things, or refuse to GM for them.

    Yeah, I can’t say I was psyched ot see it was 5E but it’s not a deal breaker either. It’s weird because we live in a great time for IP-based RPGs(Transformers, GI Joe, Power Rangers, and now Thundercats), but I’m not a huge fan of any of the systems behind them. The exception being Star Trek. I do like the 2D20 system.
