There are one shot options in the text (as there are in Hungry Hollow and The Bureau). 

If you’re looking for something designed specifically for that size of session, The Chair or Metroskate Bloodbath would work great too!

Goal: To create a sustainable way to help bring more LH adventures to print without being a large upfront cost to creators.

tl;dr: Launch your adventure as print on demand through Lulu (or drivethrurpg or hosted on your own site) and the LH team will work hard to collect those on the main website and promote them.

Thought Process: As the LH dev team continues our journey growing, one of our main areas of focus is supporting new creators. One of the reasons around hosting the jams is that it helps us build momentum as a community. We also acknowledge that a big part of ttrpgs is the idea of tables being able to buy physical books. There is something about being able to crack open those pages and reference a physical object. The downside is that getting a book to print often involves a lot of work and cost (ordering stock, shipping it to your place, packaging and distributing). One great way to get started is to have your adventure hosted on Print On Demand (PoD). This allows customers to buy the work, and it gets printed and shipped to them without an upfront cost to you.

LH Third Party Print Program: The LH dev team will create a page on the main liminalhorrorrpg.com hub to host print products by creators. This will be at no cost, and simply link to where people can purchase the books (and their digital counterparts). We will also catalog them on the liminalhorrorlibary.com as their own entry!

PoD Steps:

1. Write and design you adventure, getting it ready to print! Remember that each printer has its own specific margin/design guides.

2. Set it up as Print on Demand

  1. Lulu (resources) https://www.lulu.com/publishing-toolkit
  1. Drivethru (resources)

3. Price your work. A pretty standard rate for adventures is $10-15 for zines, 20+ for perfect bound soft cover, 25+ for hardcovers. But you can set it to whatever you like. 

4. Launch the title!

5.Start making money of print titles as well as your digital options!

6. Reach out to the LH team to let them know your work is in print:

    - discord

    - LH library submission

    - DM

7. LH team will post it to the library, the main hub page, and promote print projects regularly in newsletters,  etc

If you are selling your print product (not PoD) Steps:

1. Finish your adventure

2. Get it printed and shipped (to you or a distributor)

3. Start selling it online. 

4. Reach out to the LH team to let them know your work is in print:

5. LH team will post it to the library, the main hub page, and promote print projects regularly in newsletters,  etc

I think the file is still the one page document and not the front and back! Excited for this one!

There was three small things I worked on rewording (one of the bonds was a repeat, stims effects, and the hunted legacy fallout). 

I typically run my LH games with 3-4 players. I've run games with 5 but that may be pushing it (but is definitely possible). I know Josh has run games with two players quite successfully.

There are a few solo rules out there: Liminal Horror modules tagged 'Solo Rules' - Liminal Horror Library

There are also a few Duet examples out there (one facilitator, one player): Liminal Horror modules tagged 'Duet' - Liminal Horror Library

Okay. I went in and rewrote the text in a new box and re-exported it. It is showing up on my end. Hopefully it will on yours too.

(1 edit)

I just downloaded the most recent version of investigators and it should be showing up. I checked it using a browser viewer and preview.

If you go in to download it again, please let me know if it still is missing from your version.

you definitely could. 

If its for Liminal Horror ttrpg it should work out!

here you go!

the backerkit will be the “crowdfunding” but in essence is going to be more like a preorder store. 

Have they been sent out yet? trying to get my final forms in place for doing taxes. 

Body Building…the true body horror. 

there should be some more copies being shipped over from the uk/eu (hopefully I’ll get an update soon on those). After those get sold out we’ll be doing another run! Hopefully not too much longer until they get back in stock!

No worries at all! Hope you enjoy!!!

Oh it’s already updated there as well!

the deluxe edition hardcover will have expanded GM parts

So there are about 60 copies of the Legacy Edition being shipped back from the UK (but the timeline is unclear about when). Those will be the last copies of those editions so definitely will want to pick them up when you can.

Interestingly enough, the Investigators edition just launched today in print: https://spacepenguin.ink/collections/liminal-horror/products/liminal-horror-inve...

Yes. Dm me (on Twitter or discord) and I’ll get it to you. 

Lh investigators (the new core zine) will be. 

The mall and the bureau will eventually migrate over. We may be doing some 2e updates of those two titles and releasing alongside the hardcover next year. 

All new adventures will be coming out at SP

the intensity and severity are definitely up to you. For a oneshot I may shy away from having it be immediate and instead have it unfold in a different way

D6 target Dex. 

we will be considering some sort of community copy program for all of our modules. 

there’s definitely going to be a print edition. We’re finishing up the layout now. Then submit it to printer (along with one night). 

Keep an eye on: https://spacepenguin.ink/

This is an amazing resource. I'm so excited to have this framework to learn and grow from.

You'll be seeing some things from GA using Explorers Design!

So there’s two answers to this:

1. It’s a total typo and should have a different, drained condition. 
2. it’s a clever way of showcasing Liminal Horror vampires. 

The order was placed for 400 more so should be soon! I’ll let you know when it restocks. 

Modern horror ttrpg that’s focus is how characters change as a result of the different weird things they encounter (and try to survive). 

The design framework does a good job getting to the heart of what it is: https://goblinarchives.github.io/LiminalHorror/Design%20Framework/
