Kingbeast's Lair

-== What is it? ==-

The 100 Series is a collection of inexpensive PDF/print on demand products from Postmortem Studios that are intended to spark ideas for existing campaigns. ?100? comes from the fact that there are 100 entries on each topic. The layout of these books is very simple. There are a couple of introductory pages then the content. Each entry is exactly 1 printed page.

I think there are around 6 of these out right now. The ones I have purchased include 100 Science Fiction Adventure Seeds, 100 Fantasy Adventure Seeds, and 100 Fantasy Kingdoms.

-== What I Like ==-

I really like the length of each entry. 1 page is perfect to put across an idea plus some twists but not become a complete adventure. I run campaigns in my own worlds so long adventures are often not relevant or need heavy modification. This 1 page format is perfect to give me the guts. I can do the rest.

The content itself is very nice and fun to read. The author takes a light approach with ?cheesy titles? that convey the intent of the entry. The twists are also quite good and really do the trick.

This is gonna sound weird as I am not a GM who games with an open laptop but I think PDF is a great distribution medium for a product like this. I print out the ones I want, write all over them, and clip them into my notebook. Good to go! 😀

-== What I Don’t Like ==-

There is not much to fault in these products. My only complaints are VERY minor?sometimes the entries can get stale but the later products are much better in this regard and the covers of some of the early products are really bad?the later ones are better but the earlier ones are not as good.

-== Summary ==-

I really love these products and strongly encourage them to all GMs. My 100 Series printouts go on my shelf right next to the Suppressed Transmissions books. When you need inspiration look no further.

I give these 9 out of 10 paws.
