Hey folks, what are you think (broadly) about creating? I'm wondering what kind of breadth of stuff we may see come out of this!
Right now, my idea is a prop for in-game use coupled with an alternate/new equipment supplement. What's yours?
I’ve been tinkering with a discord for a bit but it’s a little out of my depth as a one person team atm. If it’s something others would find helpful to collaborate, I can work on opening it up to jam participants.
Happy to answer any questions about the design. I designed the graphics and charts. Pretty much everything besides the illustrations which is all Alex Mitchell.
If you’re interested in adventures, I’d encourage you to check out the follow up book, Conflict Resolution Guidelines, which has six adventures of various lengths. I’ve made more community copies available or I can send you a key direct.
In light of real life corps being even more evil than usual lately, I'm also thinking about changing my jam project to an inversion adventure where you are a team that's recovered a powerful assets and return to HQ with the intention of using it to destroy the company. Could be played after a particuarly gnarly adventure in a campaign setting or as a one or two shot.
I've got two ideas I'm circling:
The People's Republic of .EXE-A Cold War era AI that bloomed in the Maunsell Sea Forts and now serves as a reluctant information broker in return for being allowed to live.

I'm also looking at something involving Manod Mawr, the Welsh mine where the National Gallery's stock was hidden during World War II. Which in the game world would be an active cultural 'seed vault' and somewhere the Company is very eager to get into.

Also have half ideas about Dinorwig Power Station ('So what's in the Turbine Hall?' 'Excalibur.' '...WHAT?!')

And possibly a version of the Strategic Steam Reserve which is basically a free-floating, on rails nation inside a nation.
:) If I can land the Manod Mawr thing, I've got the makings of something about the Artisan, a distributed intelligence which is essentially the Fae that's been connected to art in the UK for centuries. The Artisan spreads out from Manod Mawr when the National Gallery is refilled and each element of it can mimic one type of art. So one is a painting, one is a podcast etc...There's some fun to be had there with them as a defence system for the country against the Corp and also a really terrifying iteration of the fae.
