Whither Reddit? In the meantime, here’s a place to chat up old school revival (OSR) and new school revolution (NSR) style TTRPGs.

My name is Todd aka Hexed Press and I am the current caretaker (have I always been the caretaker?). Here are some other places to find me, if you are so inclined:

What holds it back in terms of long campaigns?

Honestly, mostly personal preference.

Black Sword Hack is a pretty narrative rules-light system, and while those are great to bring to the table when I'm just running a game at my FLGS or RPG Club, for a long term campaign I'd rather have a few more campaign tools and deeper systems. So for my long campaigns I use systems like Forbidden Lands, ACKS, WWN, or at minimum OSE with something like Into the Wild bolted on.
