Hey, Assemblage community! 🌿

We're so excited about how the Assemblage campaign is going so far. Crowdfunding is such a sudden, intense, and wonderful way to enlarge the community surrounding a tabletop game. And, to continue that expansion, we're excited to invite you to play Assemblage on Discord with us this weekend, March 15 & 16.

Scryptid Games co-founder Patrick Watson will be running games of Assemblage using screentop.gg, and Discord chat. Join the Scryptid Games Discord and find the #lets-play-assemblage channel for details on how to play!

Patrick runs these games as "semi-synchronous," which means you'll chat together and use the same digital tabletop, but there is no video call. This means you can play while relaxing at home, over the course of several hours — and folks from various time zones are warmly welcomed. 

Please, come join us! We would love to play Assemblage with you, and explore strange worlds and weird species together. 🍄‍🟫

You can help us keep up the momentum by sharing this campaign on social media and in your gaming communities!

And then be sure to check out Why We Fight, a rad eco-punk game by our Pocketopia partner, Stop Drop and Roll. Why We Fight is a solarpunk TTRPG in which you play a crew of eco-punks fighting fascism to build a brighter, greener future. 

If you back both Assemblage AND Why We Fight, you'll unlock TWO special rewards.  Everyone who backs both games will receive Collective Action, a game duet that showcases how Assemblage can be used to create settings for other TTRPGs, and the expansive possibilities of crew creation and group action in new environments and scenarios in Why We Fight.

This exclusive expansion content includes two PDFs and a set of print-and-play cards inviting you to create and play as both a group of humans encountering a weird ecology AND a weird ecology experiencing the incursion of a group of humans.

Use the Assemblage world-building framework to create a weird ecology on an island located in the world of Why We Fight — and use Why We Fight’s crew creation framework to create a team of scientists investigating that weird ecology. Then use the print-and-play cards to “duet” the crew’s actions and the ecology’s unique response.

Thanks for helping to make both of these awesome games a reality!!
