Finally found the time to start Blood Like Roses. Blending Swords Without Master with Miso and adding a touch of ICRPG for inspirational scene cards.

Session 2 of my Microlite 20 solo Star Wars game. I just realized I haven’t introduced my character further:

His name is Randal Urich and he is a level 1 human operative (rogue). His stats are: Str 14, Dex 17, Con 12, Int 14, Wis 14, Cha 15. As I am playing solo I need a somewhat above average character so I generated my stats by rolling 1d6+11 six times and assigned the scores afterwards. I use Microlite 20 skills and classes but the standard six stats, together with somewhat more detailed combat rules. My skills are Physical 2, Knowledge 2, Subterfuge 5, Communication 2 and Survival 2. I have a blaster pistol, a combat knife, combat gloves for weapons, together with a utility belt and survival pack. I wear a heavy leather jacket that is reinforced with plastoid weave fibers on the inside (light armor, +3 AC, basically reskinned studded leather) giving me AC 16. I also have 16 HP.

So here is the second part of my first mission:

Part 20 of my Star Wars d6 campaign is up. The PCs journey to an even more inhospitable place, and have a chance to settle a score.

Just spent the last couple of hours doing a solo sidequest in Pathfinder using the Path of War stuff from Dreamscarred Press. I loved Tomb of Battle back in 3.5, so it was fun to return to this idea. You can check it out in my newest blog posts on Play Every Role.

After SGAM2017 is over I have started a new Star Wars game to get into the mood for the newest movie, which I will watch on the 27th, so no spoilers please. I reverted back to my handwritten scribbling after going electronic for SGAM.

I know it is better to read, more clear etc. than my handwritten glyphs but for me, typing on the computer just doesn’t feel like gaming. As I mentioned before, solo gaming is a physical experience for me that is just as important as the story. The shaking of the dice, the ink on the paper, the pen in my mouth while I am thinking about the next move etc.

This, and the fact that I have an office job and sit in front of a computer screen all week. So I apologize if you need a forensic investigator to read my actual plays but that’s the way I like it…

I use Microlite20 as a system, my character is a rebel intelligence operative and the time frame is shortly before the events of Rogue One.

My first (hopefully not last) mission is to retrieve a valuable defector from a planet under imperial siege…I use a variety of tools to mix things up a little (Mythic, Impetus, sometimes the FU oracle etc.).

A few people have asked about Ironsworn here so I thought I’d be a bit forward and post a link to my blog where I have started a solo play of it in my own take of the Horizon Zero Dawn setting.

Up front, I am not a writer and this is my first time doing any solo roleplay so take it for what it’s worth. But any constructive feed back is appreciated.
