What was the RPG Pipeline

The RPG Pipeline was a posting board to keep track of upcoming tabletop rpgs from 2015 to 2021 (this Blogger version began in 2019). It covered new English language ttrpgs and ttrpgs going into crowdfunding.

Buccaneers & Brine [Free]

Buccaneers & Brine [Free]:

YQ4pj4.png


You are a pirate! Sail on the high seas with your pirate buddies, command your Crew, gather and spend your Treasure, and generally get up to no good.

A TTRPG for a GM and however many players you want. Each player will control a single pirate, and work together to control their ship and miscellaneous crew.

  • Rules Lite! Character creation takes seconds.
  • Narrative Focus! Resolution mechanic is PBTA-ish, with a heavy focus on story over tactics.
  • Shenanigans! Simple dice-pool system, with effects for highest/lowest rolls, and changing dice based on abilities.
  • GM Guidance! A set of principles to follow to guarantee fun pirate-y madness.
  • GM Tables! Helping you generate fun, Sea of Thieves/Pirates of the Carribean-esque mythical content.
  • Ships! Minimal rules for handling naval stuff. Enough to work with, small enough to stay out of the way.
To play you'll need something to record your pirate and ship down (bit of paper, note on your phone), some d6s, some d4s and some d8s.

Bottle of rum optional but recommended. Dressing up as a pirate and using a pirate voice optional but highly recommended.

Download the PDF or images, or even manually copy them directly from the screenshots.
