A Lame Opening

 Well here we are. My first post. 


I'm Terance Crosby and I have been taking an increasing interest in OSR games and wanted a place to jot down my ideas and whatnot and this is basically where I'm gonna do it. 


This is mostly me testing things out so don't expect much.

It takes something that should be inherently harrowing and dramatic with a built in ticking clock element and lot of chances for adventure and reduces it to a minor annoyance that players can just pay their way out of.
