Over on Mastodon (where there's a great RPG community forming) someone posted about their adaptation of the 1978 version of Battlestar Galactica into Classic Traveller. I found this sort of inspiring, so I made some custom character sheets in the BSG style. One is color, the other black & white.

Sherwood: A review and custom character sheet for a Robin Hood RPG

I've posted before about … Continue reading Sherwood: A review and custom character sheet for a Robin Hood RPG
