Basic Fantasy OSR with Chris Gonnerman
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- I was joined by @ChrisGonnerman, the creator of Basic Fantasy and Iron Falcon and one of the founders of the OSR. We discussed Chris' start in the hobby and the development of the amazing community around Basic Fantasy. We also covered Chris writing Iron Falcon, a throwback to the little brown books and Greyhawk.

Hey everyone! if you liked the video i'd appreciate it if you checked out my channel and if you find others that you like, please consider subscribing! Thanks!
Really appreciated the opportunity to come on your show! Probably shouldn't have let me run on so long though...
I'm sure like everybody else, we'd be happy to just let you keep going!
You sir are a legend
@@AlexanderDunn-cj5me Why thank you!
Chris Gonnerman is one of the nicest,best guys in the TTRPG scene. I just love that he provides free entry into our hobby with his material. Thank you for all your hard work over the years and all the good it's done, Chris.
Thank you very much Garry & Chris. Much love.
Thanks for the video! Excellent interview! Always a treat to hear the insights of Chris Gonnerman.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Mr. Gonnerman has done more for my enjoyment of the hobby than anyone else, except perhaps Gary Gygax who was the first to share the idea. Thank you!
a huge thanks to Chris Gonnerman and all he has done!
I've had many great sessions thanks to Basic Fantasy.
The website is a treasure trove, so many helpful pamphlets with optional rules.
Thank you to all the community that have put this together over the years. Truly, a band of heroes if there ever was one!
Interesting thing about ascending AC, I saw an interview with Zeb Cook where he said they presented it for AD&D 2e, but the higher-ups at TSR didn’t want it (compatibility with 1e).
Great video. I love the minor mention of myself early in the video.... Thanks, I am just a minor contributor in the scheme of things. BFRPG is really the way forward of gaming.
Don't sell yourself short. You were a big help in the early days when the community was just forming, and you're still with me after all these years. It's appreciated.
Love your channel! Great interview and thanks for bringing important creators into the light! This is RPG canon!
Thanks for the kind words, and for watching!
I love Basic Fantasy. It's really the one and only "forever system" I need to run old school campaigns for years on end. There's always a flashy new thing in the OSR scene but BFRPG has real staying power.
Thank you for this interview. Keep these great shows going 😊
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!
Absolute legend!
I agree that THACO was not used in the 70s in game groups, I started in 78 and we never used it. However, it is listed in the 1E AD&D DMG in the monster charts at the back. Published in 79 but being worked on by at least 77 the term must have been in use, but not used by most at the time.
BFRPG is a rules toolkit that has awesome utility - community derived but led by someone who understands the open source model and related licensing. Great interview and discussion. Always love hearing from Chris. (And Iron Falcon is a love let letter to OD&D play I really enjoy too.)
Thanks man!
Thank you Chris. Really enjoyed hearing about the origins of Basic Fantasy. I need to get a new copy soon. Of course I have the pdf of everything but I gave my physical copy to my grandson. I really appreciate you putting out a such a great ruleset that anyone can afford.
BFRPG is like Linux, free and open source and endlessly adaptable.
Noice.
