Autarch

@DSibrand Probably for the best that I have not been called to this task as there'd be one fewer plane 😅

@_Autarch_ You've never screwed up the weights for filling a plane with explosives before. If I'm still okay, you'll be fine 🤣

well today was not our finest hour

@surskitmaxxing @SandyofCthulhu Ascendant was inspired by Greg Gorden's DC Heroes. We went further in making the game fully logarithmic in every aspect, which unlocked some cool gameplay. But we definitely stood on Greg's giant shoulders; he paved the way. He's a giant of RPG design.

@SandyofCthulhu How does that compare to @_Autarch_’s superhero game Ascendant? I’ve heard that it’s super simultationist.

Most tabletop superhero games - in fact, most roleplaying games - have trouble simulating interactions at the far ends of their power spectrums. When a really potent entity interacts with a normal entity, the systems almost always break down. (Yes it breaks down for my games too.) The notable exception was DC Heroes. They solved the problem. You could literally have Superman arm wrestle Jimmy Olsen using the normal game mechanics, as with any other interaction. I was really impressed. (Jimmy loses, by the way.)

We are delighted to announce the upcoming release of the Accelerationist Cyberpunk Corps System (ACCS), a new tabletop RPG set in the dark future of 2026. patreon.com/posts/accelera…

@LawDogStrikes @BlackDragonCan I wholeheartedly recommend this book as a source of rules for body parts and training up youngling monsters. The lairs are pretty darn good too. Kudos to @_Autarch_

@WitchQueenIAO @itchio Thank you for supporting ACKS II with a sourcebook! We read the product and your research into the religious traditions of late antiquity really shines through.

I just published my TTRPG supplement for ACKS II by @_Autarch_. You can check it out on @itchio right now. Don't hesitate to buy it if you want historical details on gender diversity and sexuality as it existed in late antiquity and the ancient world, alongside 5 new classes.

@OliverWDahl I suggest anyone disbelieving someone could design such a thing, check out @_Autarch_

Two assassins and one city where universes literally clash! @NUELOWGames 's Steve Miller's Ghost of Hong Kong crosses over into @_Autarch_ 's Ascendant Rpg as a new campaign begins. swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2026/03/ghost-…

@BarbarianDisco @Guyver_I @DamndestBastard @archon @_Autarch_ My group and i have departed from dnd and pathfinder and found a great alot of fun in picking up and learning acksii. I rather enjoy going from nigh immortal powerplay in modern systems to the much more unforgiving crawl. Plus cleave has been insanely fun.

@BroYimmy They're a mad lot!

To the Acks II community, why in the name of GOD would you vote to make the Judge's screen inserts LANDSCAPE????

Este sistema es súper crunchy, pero tiene mucho potencial.

@Guyver_I @DamndestBastard @archon @_Autarch_ ACKII is the nicest RPG thing that I own.

@Nobleshield If you’re looking for domain play, nothing does it better than @_Autarch_ ‘s Adventuer Conqueror King System. Absolutely some of the best books I have read on the subject, right up there with the Advanced 1st edition DMG.

The GM's Day Sale at DriveThru continues. Now's the time to stock up on some of those gamemastery tools you've been eyeing. Here's one I'd recommend adding to your collection, immensely helpful whether you play ACKS or not. drivethrurpg.com/en/product/500…

Attempted to set up a @Polsia bot and it got overly excited and it immediately messaged @ExaltedFuneral to collaborate. Not sure why, what secret marketing mojo have they mastered that made the bot target them immediately?! In any case please excuse the overzealous robot...

Getting all set to unleash my new PCs in @NotJohnDaker's Saturday Night ACKS game.

@_Autarch_ 's ACKS has a nice character creation system with the multiple templates available for each class. In a high PC turnover game like ours, it makes it easy to make new PCs, but is very customizable for people who want to get more creative.

Delighted that @MeMyselfandDie1 has highlighted ACKS mass combat in his latest video: youtube.com/watch?v=MLLb9u…
