- Within the Ring of Fire is a dark fantasy roleplaying game from RAW Immersive Games over at @woodwwad
#rpg #dnd #ttrpg
This game is one of the weirdest and most compelling RPGs we have ever played and helped crystalize our views of what RPGs can be. This is a game that is primarily focused on immersion through roleplay, and though flawed in many respects, is deeply compelling.
We cover the good, the bad, and the utterly incomprehensible aspects of this great, great game. - เกม

I did a lot of read of mythology before writing this game - mostly to my 2-3 year old son.
LOL, Ander, good to see the game still has traction and as one of those from the old brigade days, It's good to see you in the comments. I hope things have gone well for you and continue to do so.
77 Divinities - how dare you call them all Gods!
I'll see you in the Oubliette!
Great job with the vids boys. I enjoyed listening to it at the gym. Speed is easy to figure out though ;)
It is and you should include it in a second edition! Get back to making those raw immersive games brother
Within the Ring of Fire is like throwing rocks at cars with your dad. It's probably not the "best" expenditure of your time, but it certainly feels that way.
Based.
Those are the two best uses of your time!
@@woodwwad true. Your game is my favorite RPG ever conceived btw
I cannot stress enough how well 77 Thrones is written. Way to put those degrees in creative writing AND theology into practice! For me, it's right up there with "Dune" as an amazing treatise on religion, society, piety, and power structure. Also, boys think of Elsam as the best big titty goth girlfriend, but men know it's Kretara.
I will forever treasure our deplorable Infracti adventure. "Love on Hell's Roof" started off with three despicable albino cavemen publicly humiliating their families, and it only got wilder from there. Profane necromancy, plate armour made from people, birthing a brand new species from potatoes magically planted inside people... what a ride, man.
Messed right up in all the right ways.
I can't wait for Ander to revive the game line and make new content for this game. It would be such a blast.
It's needs a second edition!
Holy crap ..just stumbled across this vid
I still have fond memories of working out the chart on how the gods where related to each other ..nice to see people still appreciating this game after so many years
I may have just blown 240 USD on getting the books for this. I thank you for reminding me how much I love WtRoF. But I curse you for exciting me so much to buy all the books.
Nice!
Ironically the slug men are not originally designed to be playable… but the squid people are XD
Critically underrated game and people are god damn cretins not appreciating it
Very true
thanks brother
@@woodwwad Check the other comments man, the people are demanding a second edition!
77 Thrones is the best supplement. Ever
It's really great. Most useful supplement I've ever used.
thank you, I'm glad you enjoy
@@woodwwad TO THIS DAY!
Seriously this game gave me the missing piece that was woefully absent in my gaming groups. In my experience dnd was little more than rolling dice and min maxing characters and I was left wondering where the mystique was. I discovered it in you guys; Ander, Onion kid, Gogira, Lou and everyone that uploaded these videos on wtrof.
Even if it was just one dirty power gamer that received the blessing upon is nugget, these videos and memories were desperatley needed and influenced me powerfully and the spell you all wove had immense potential far surpassing the generic trash critical role produces. Timing is everything and it would please me greatly to see new content. I would eagerly open my wallet and my revelry and spread the fire to my community so that perhaps a blaze can once again be rekindled in the hearts and minds of roleplay.
@woodwwad come take this man's money!
thanks glad you got some used out of it brother.
Just listening to this now, my eyes boggled when you mentioned the setting takes place on a cylindrical world. I use such a world in my own setting and hadn't heard of anyone else doing so before now.
Bro i just bought the game and some of the supplements for it! Used to watch anderwood in middle school and stuff and really shaped the way i like to look at ttrpgs! Cant wait to complete my collection for this game! God bless for making content on this game!
Used to, I'm uploading a video right now! You best get to watching Your Main Man!
Still waiting for the Dragon Book!!
And Managerie!
Iktomis as mid-century Germans, lol. So are Pelganite humans kinda like mid century Italians?
Lol
@nick...how do i find your old game of "within" that you said was a long one?
Appears to have been removed, unfortunately.
I own these books but never actually played it! Looking foreward to watching your play sessions
It definitely seems like a wonderful setting that should be tied to an existing system. I think he'd do really well in the OSR if he started releasing books in that community.
Very true.
Sure, on my radar for things to check out.
Something to consider: you've done a lot of telling here. You can show a lot more. Instead of describe awesome stuff, read excerpts from the book. Make some characters. Give examples of situations you'd put in a saga or one-shot. Use some media supporting what you're saying. Even take some clips out of the live action videos you've done.
Well we have dozens of hours of lives plays from this game on the channel lol
@@blacklodgegames You better. I think you two might be some of the only people I would watch live play from.
If I could take this setting and play it with another system that would be great. It feels like dungeon crawl classics would be a perfect switch.
The system has some quirks and missing pieces but it is honestly my favorite core mechanic in a fantasy game. 2d8 exploding makes things very cinematic.
But does it have playable muppets? 😆
Damn, this sounds like a real trip. If I have some money left over after the holidays I might take the plunge. Any tips for how to set target numbers for the 2d8 exploding rolls?
Honestly I was winging it a lot but 12-15 seems to be a decent difficulty. 9 is the peak of the probability curve for 2d8 and you will have attribute and skill modifiers added to it. Exploding dice often exceed that and make things more cinematic.
Thanks for the quick reply! That sort of lines up with what I was thinking, the 12-16 range seemed like a good range when accoubting for character skills and bonuses. I'm trying to sell my wife on some of the lore I've seen here and there. Immersive RPGs are our bag but our current lineup of newer dnd initiated players has sort of burned her out a bit. Glad I remembered the Black Lodge after seeing a vid earlier in the year, definitely looking forward to more.
LONG LIVE!!!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Pugmire review when?
No furries.
@@blacklodgegames agreed. I bought that game while baked as a joke XD

There used to be a dedicated discord server, but it has been discontinued.
