Cubicle 7 has announced the 5th Edition of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, timed to coincide with the game’s 40th anniversary. The new edition is currently available for pre-order, which grants immediate access to the PDF, while the physical hardcovers are expected to ship in Spring 2027. This edition remains backwards compatible with the 4th edition, retaining the classic d100 system and the “grimdark” Old World setting while refining rules for combat, magic, and character careers.

Steve Jackson Games and Lynnvander Studios are collaborating to adapt the classic, trope-filled Munchkin card game into a 5.5E-powered tabletop roleplaying game. This new system aims to transition the card game’s signature chaotic, loot-focused parody into a functional RPG experience with official rules support. Launching in October, the project will include the “Ye Olde Rulebook,” new subclasses, and unique “Pun-spiration” and “Cheeky Cheating” mechanics that encourage players to prioritize greed and backstabbing in their campaigns.

A proposed settlement in the Diamond Comic Distributor bankruptcy case has faced a new obstacle due to an objection filed by Sparkle Pop, the company that currently holds the warehouse assets. While the settlement was intended to return consigned inventory to publishers like Green Ronin and Paizo, Sparkle Pop is disputing the deal, citing outstanding claims for warehouse rent and processing fees. This objection has stalled the resolution, leaving affected publishers waiting for the release of their long-held stock from the Mississippi warehouse.

Bloat Zines is currently crowdfunding for “Skullcrusher,” a grimdark fantasy RPG inspired by 90s-era D&D sessions and the New School Revival movement. Created by Eric Bloat, the game emphasizes accessibility through streamlined mechanics and is being released under a Creative Commons license that invites others to create official content. The Kickstarter campaign is currently live, offering both digital and print options, and the team is prioritizing a timely delivery by avoiding stretch goals.

Privateer Press releases a statement about their Iron Kingdoms RPG. The setting became the inspiration for their miniatures game War Machine. It uses the OGL and depending on what WotC does it may need to find another system or license.

There are two Bundle of Holding if you are looking for non-OGL TTRPGs. These bundles are DRM-free PDFs and offer a huge variety of gaming systems for gamemasters and players to try out.

Free League has announced two new game licenses. Because of recent OGL events they have updated their Year Zero Engine OGL and SRD and also a specific license for publishing third-party adventures for their successfully Kickstarted upcoming Dragonbane RPG. 

Facade Games has the fifth entry in their Dark Cities game series on Kickstarter. Hollywood 1947 is a social deduction game that is set in the blacklisting-crazy, red scare Hollywood studio system. Players take the role of a studio employee working on their latest film.THe components like all their previous games are gorgeous and the game box is a replica of a hardcover book that will sit perfectly alongside the previous games.

In this episode, we look at the miniature wargames Warmachine and Hordes. We discuss our first impressions, for Chris and Yujiro, second impressions, for Lyal and Wayne, and whether we’ll play the games again.

If Privateer Press ever gets tired of the motto “Play Like You’ve Got a Pair”, here are a few suggested alternatives in the same spirit:

  • Ladies Need Not Apply
  • Men’s Time!
  • You’ll Die Alone
  • With an Apartment Filled with Miniatures, Dating Is Not Your Priority
  • Play Like It’s the 1950s
  • You’ll Have a Better Chance Meeting Women at Prison Than Across a Wargaming Table
  • Femiwhat?
  • All Sausage All the Time
  • Girls Have Cooties
  • Games Workshop Is for Women (and a lot of Men).
