    Why Sverige got an RPG industry and Danmark did not

    I always wondered why Danes never built a real RPG industry. There has been various attempts over the years to explain it, many of them pretty poor so I guess this is my thinking about it (also poor, since I still have covid). I would be interested in hearing your thoughts. After all we are...

    BRP. Fantasy or guns?

    A post I read from a Mutant player some time ago said that BRP is best with guns. Conversely, it of course started as a fantasy system (Runequest was 78, Call of Cthulhu was 81). So I thought I would ask the floor: Do you prefer BRP as a fantasy / medieval system or as a modern / scifi system?

    Brädspel Norden skal forsvares! Figur spel

    Okay so this is an idea for a miniatures game, not an RPG but I hope you guys will not mind. As you may know, I tend to write fairly narrative / character oriented campaign minis games where units carry over between games. An idea I have kicking around is a stand alone campaign game based...

    Just picked up Expert Partisan

    Assorted thoughts after reading last night (in no particular order). This is a topic I have wanted to develop a miniatures campaign game for (Scandinavia under attack, possibly in a couple of different time frames) for some time, so this was fun to read. -The book is mostly setting and...

    Give feedback while I write (poorly!) in Svenska

    As you may know, I am working hard on getting better at Swedish. My reading is pretty good, speaking is crap but improving and writing is... holy shit it is bad. Part of it is that it is difficult not to fall into how it works in Danish. So I thought if any of you want to help a fellow gamer /...

    DoD Definitive overview of Riotminds DoD differences?

    Cheers folks. There seems to have been multiple versions of the Riotminds DoD "6". Is there a site out there that walks through each version and talks about the differences between them? Failing that, is there a supernerd who can run down the game line?

What system did you have? What were the big Swedish computer magazines and particularly Commodore or Amiga...

    Learning other Scandinavian languages. Was it easier or harder?

    I am starting to get over this now, but when I first started on reading Swedish stuff seriously (as opposed to the bits we did in school) in some ways, I found it a lot harder than German (even though I understood more in Swedish). The fact that the two languages were very similar made getting...

    Best Svenska film and tv from the last 20 years or so?

    Hey, if you would be so kind: What are the "must sees" of Swedish television and film from say 2000 onwards. (I have no objection to older film and tv at all, but its often harder to find online). Please include the genre and like one line of what made it good.

    Anyone follow the Bundesliga?

    I checked with a mod and they said it was okay to put this here :) Any Bundesliga fans in here? What teams are you rooting for? Im not sure if it is as big in Sweden, in Denmark it is (or at least was) pretty popular and quite a few Danish players go down South to play.

    Gearing up for some old school Eon with my American friends and I was curious: I have the big pile of PDFs Helmgast made available. Other than the main setting book, if you were going to suggest 3 books to read through for fun ideas for campaigning, which ones would you pick? (I also have...

    Kommuner / stad som är rolige

    (Im sure I butchered the title) As you may know, I am a Danish citizen living in the US and in 5 years or so, we are looking at relocating somewhere, with Sweden being high on the list. I am familiar with the legal requirements as a nordic citizen and the time it can take to find housing, what...
