Duncan Thomson

Here's a copy of the Newsletter I send out for Rand Roll and Chaos Gen Newsletter.

Highlighted Gens and Tables

At rollaquest.com you can roll not just quests, but Themes, Settings, Villains, Dungeons and more. All on the same page

Over at Inkwell Ideas is Hexlands, a free online hex generator.

Over at itch.io, Flightless Saucer has a pay-what-you-want Book-Based Story Element Generator, mostly for solo play.

Articles at Rand Roll

Three solo Interviews with Shawn Tomkin of Ironsworn/StarforgedPatrick of the Soloist Newsletter, and Jon of the Tale of the Manticore podcast.

Solo RPGs also had an introduction and start for Broken Cask, a solo game looking after a tavern and the final part of Electric Bastionland playthrough.

In Gamebooks is the beginnings of a Gamebook Resources page, and the monthly gamebook diaries with Gamebook Characters.

Random Tables is updating D&D Encounters to 2024 Rules, with Arctic, Desert, Underdark and Underwater.

More Updates of D&D Encounters

Much of March has been taken up with updating more D&D Encounter tables to use the 2024 rules, and adding a version of 2014 with internal links in the pdf. Most terrains and all noncombat encounters now done.

They've all been put into a 2024 Encounters Bundle to keep track of them. 

Finishing Up

Hopefully back to non-D&D projects soon! 

Happy gaming!
