Roll Lots of Checks with 1d20, Upcoming City of Arches Updates
🕑 Added 2022-12-22 17:00:03 +0000 UTCHi friend!
This month I have a small update to Uncovered Secrets Volume 2. This one-page guide, inspired from a long-lost article in Dragon Magazine issue 113 back in September 1986, helps you roll large numbers of d20 checks (like attack rolls or saving throws) rolling only a single d20. If you feel like the "one quarter succeed" guideline from the Running Hordes sections of the Lazy DM's Companion or Uncovered Secrets Volume 1 is too simple, this "Rolling Lots of Checks" guideline gives you some variance but still makes it easier to roll dozens (hundreds?) of checks with just a few d20 rolls. Find it on page 23 of Uncovered Secrets Volume 2.
I'm also hard at work on a huge section of the City of Arches called "Sunken Revvia" which talks all about the ruined and dangerous city lying deep beneath the City of Arches. It's like a mini-sourcebook inside a sourcebook suited for adventures for 5th to 11th level play (maybe even higher). Right now it's about 11 pages long and I've commissioned another awesome map from Chloe Bolland to cover the city. I expect to have it in your hands in January 2023 but if you want a sneak rough preview, you can check out the preview here.
More exciting things are going on in the future of Sly Flourish as well including a one-on-one adventure for Patreons and a new Kickstarter with my friends and fellow designers Scott Fitzgerald Gray and Teos Abadia! Here's a sneak preview of the cover!
Have a great holidays and a happy new year!
