This is wonderful! Great writing :)

Such great writing! Fits the Troika! vibe perfectly. You really get this material. 

And PieceOfCrazy! What great ideas to expand on this. Definitely stealing these ideas for the open table I am planning. Big thanks all around. 

Much appreciated! Thanks for taking the time to read it. Feel free to keep us updated with how it plays at your table :)

I love this. I'm going to run an adventure based on this next week: I've made a point-crawl map of the neighborhood, came up with some factions or entities that control various zones (there's of course Slipshod, the Shape, and Quisquilious, and I came up with a Drock red church – I'm not sure how it's called in English – that wants to redistribute mass between Dwarfs and Drocks, and a non profit organization that tries its best to help Drocks), made random encounters for all the zones using both the table in the PDF and some stuff I made up, and created a special dungeon for Slipshod's refinery.

In my game Slipshod's goal is actually to use all the NuDwarfs to build a golden barge and flee to another sphere where they can live away from all the inequalities and the chaos of Troika City. He's kind of an Ice King or Lemongrab from Adventure Time.

I hope the players will have at least half the fun I had prepping this (which is A LOT of fun).

Really an awesome micro-setting!

I'm so happy to hear that! I really dig the ideas you're bringing to your session too. The Red Church faction is an intriguing addition. I would love to hear how the game goes.

I've been thinking about releasing an expanded version of Drockside with location maps, additional encounters, more NPC art, etc. since this came together quite quickly to make the deadline for the Jam.

Thanks so much for the feedback!
