How does the Pressure Point come into play? I see the rules about what it represents and how it changes, but what does it affect?
Hi ManaDawn!
I would like to translate Barrow Delver to Simplified Chinese (简体中文) and post it on itch.io for free (under CC-BY-SA 4.0), is that okay for you? I’d also like to use the cover material if possible.
I’ve got a lot of other work to do at the moment (*sigh*), but if you’ll allow me to translate this in the future, we can high-five right now.
P.S. I’ve translated Cairn SRD and hacked a beautiful cover!
love this idea!!!
Hi, I'm thinking of translating Barrow Delver to Polish. Would it be ok with you?
please do! That sounds amazing
Great, can I contact you somehow? Maybe I could use some of your files to make it look similar?
For sure. You can reach out at manarampmatt@gmail.com
It's ready at: https://hechlok.itch.io/badacz-kurhanow
Thanks for helping me with it
I used this for a solo game of Cairn and really enjoyed the changing dynamic for the yes/no outcomes. I’m looking forward to trying the spark tables at some point.
I printed a couple of copies and am stuffing them into some of my other RPG zines to run with other game systems, since this is so versatile! Thanks for providing this as a free product.
Love the idea of the yes/no Oracle relating to the Pressure Point DR, very neat!
