System of the Month November: Draw Steel

A new game for a new age! Draw Steel is the breathtaking new, action-oriented, fantasy RPG from MCDM that’s both fun to play and fun to run!

Designed for five players, meant to be played using maps with a grid, Draw Steel is the result of thousands of hours of testing and polish. 

In Draw Steel, your character grows more powerful over the course of the battle, not less! Characters build heroic resources over the course of the battle so battles get more interesting round by round! 

But Draw Steel is not only a game about epic battles against hideous monsters. The game also features robust, detailed rules for…

Montages! Cinematic sequences where the heroes work together, using their skills in imaginative ways to defeat a series of non-combat challenges. Navigate a deadly swamp! Escape a collapsing ruin! The montage rules make it easy for directors to design new montages and challenge their players in creative new ways outside of combat.

Negotiations! Convincing an NPC to help you (or stop helping your enemy) can radically change any adventure. 

The rules for character creation in Draw Steel produce three dimensional characters and with the negotiation rules, you can quickly make any NPC a fully realized character with their own motivations.

System of the month October: The Skeletons

Years fly by like dead leaves. Everything is darkness. Everything is silence. You stand vigilant before the sarcophagus without thought or breath-such is your compulsion. You do not remember your name and still you watch. The flesh has fallen off your bones and still you watch.

And then one day there is light and motion and you weigh your bearded axe and raise your shield, lusting for the fray, eager to measure your skill against these tomb-robbing children so full of blood. You’ll never be alive again, but in this moment-in the chaos between violation and destruction-you truly live, and you remember what you once were, and you taste the sun.

The Skeletons is meditative structured freeform game for 1-6 players. You’ll need a few hours and a private space.

The Skeletons flips the script on the classic dungeon crawl— here you play not the intruders, but the guardians, cursed to spend all of eternity defending a tomb. As time passes, both the tomb and its guardians will change. Ferocious battles are fought and won, and the skeletons slowly remember who and what they once were. Melancholy, introspective and spanning epochs, The Skeletons is unlike anything you’ve ever played.

Perils and Princesses, once upon a time…

A party of valiant Princesses embarked on a grand adventure. They each received a magical Gift from their Fairy Godmothers to aid them in their quest through the enchanted forest. They bargained with pixies, outwitted goblins, danced in the moonlight at a mossy shrine and even stopped for a picnic with a unicorn along the way.

With bright sword in hand, they faced down the fire-breathing dragon and saved the realm. And the beguiling riddle of a mysterious old woman beckoned them deeper into the hidden wonders of a world of folklore and magic.

Perils & Princesses is a fantasy role-playing game of gritty and pretty fairy tale adventure for 3–5 players. Great for newbies, families, or seasoned gamers looking to go on a fairy tale adventure. Steel your resolve, gather your grace and sharpen your wits, and you might just live… Happily Ever After.

If you’re a fan of Grimm’s Fairy Tales, animated Princess Movies, and Classic Storybooks where plucky heroes use their resolve and wits as they undergo fantastical adventures, then this is your kind of TTRPG.

KuL News May 2025

There was another Höck in May with lots of interesting topics and discussions – and we don’t want to withhold a summary from you. Finally, as usual, an outlook for the coming weeks.

Information from the Höck

  • We put the finishing touches to the terms and conditions and then post them on the website. All people who book our room must agree to them.
  • If you think something important is missing in our rooms – whether it’s equipment or decoration, for example – please let us know via Discord in the Feedback & Ideas channel. (By the way, replacements for the chairs that are currently in the lounge are already on the wish list).
  • The board games and RPG books are now electronically inventoried.
  • Board games can no longer be borrowed and taken home, but with the lounge we now have a great place to play them. (Unlike RPG books, which can still be taken home, too much can get lost with board games).
  • All Höcks for this year are posted in the Discord events and in the calendar, so that you can transfer the dates to your calendars and nothing stands in the way of your participation.
