December 19, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

  Did you miss the 6d6 Kickstarter last year? It offered a wealth of products in return for pledges. It reached something like %330 of the funding goal.

6d6 Online Tools – sell other GMs ideas for money?

February 1, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 3 Comments

6d6 Firefall is a new discovery for me. It was their decision to release the core 6d6 mechanics under Creative Commons license (ie, for free and re-use) that caught my attention.
