HARN Creators Discussion

[@YukonJack88]

Between the massive Harn World, Merp's extensive Middle Earth coverage, and now Symbaroum's focused mature Grimdark setting, we are fully in the heydays of mature Campaign settings... Seriously inspired times to game within.... to find the time tho...bloody hell!!

[@joeadams3228]

As a member of the HarnWriters Group, I want to congratulate you on the best Harn video I’ve seen! Great job!

[@Gidizz]

I'm a simple man. I see a new MM&D video drop, I instantly start watching and hit like.

[@jasonGamesMaster]

Harn is so interesting to me. I really need to check it out in depth. Also, wholesome af to see Trevor immortalized in his favorite setting

[@OldUncleMojo]

Every time Richard talked about Eric Hotz and his art, I kept hearing him saying "Hot Stuff" (as in the Donna Summer song) which amused me greatly. Yes, I'm easily amused, I admit.

[@michaeltorrance]

IMHO, the pencil art really brings the setting content to life.

[@Renkaru]

Harn's setting has always intrigued me, but I've never played in a game. I'd love to one day.

[@Madkingstoe]

I've been collecting setting books for over 20 years but I only discovered Harn about 3 years ago. Since then I've become a huge fan and it's quickly become my favorite setting. I've backed 4 Kickstarter campaigns by Columbia Games and have always been extremely impressed with their efficiency as well as the quality of their products. I own every hardcover nation book now as well as a binder full of their Harnquest content. I've discovered how wonderful it feels to get new RPG info mailed to you every few months - it really gets me excited for the content and forms a type of bond with the company. Thank you guys for all the incredibly top tier work you do, and for your integrity in keeping Harn so well preserved despite how much "popular fantasy" has changed over the decades. I'm looking forward to Tharda! (BTW, I saw you as Bruna Sarat, Trevor. Great expression)

I bought my first Harn product on, i believe, 1982. Must have been Cities. I have not played much ttrpg ovwr the last many years. I am Really Loving the new improved "updates" that I have bought. Keep it up Columbia Games!

[@bbailey01]

Cities of Hârn and the original Hârn Master Module published in 1983. I'm glad you're enjoying the updates! As a musician, I hope you enjoyed the recent article on the College of Harpers!

[@CrossZeon]

Fellow newbie Harn fan here. Thank you, Trevor for introducing me to the setting. I noticed that the portrait resembles another Ivinian baron, Kjal Forsetha, of Geda keep, in Chybisa. I'm really looking forward to the kingdom of Evael renewal, but I first need to go through the rest of Chybisa. I also agree that this setting deserves a lot more attention. Many thanks to all the team at Columbia games for all their hard work!

[@ahtech1990]

Holy shit, I can't believe I commented just a day or so ago on the Harnmaster episode of Sage's Library suggesting a Featureless Grey Plain only to see this in my feed today! I should comment more often if this is the result! I think I summoned this! (/s on that last part, lol).

[@1000buffalo]

Great to see Harn featured for a discussion. I've been greatly enjoying the new Harn hardbacks.

[@peterixon8708]

The 'scary' thing about this talk is its similarities to how long-term careers in militaries in the western world work. You can have your own way of doing things, but ultimately you are part of team and long after you have retired, the institution must endure. I worked 43 years in that world, and even now am still assimilating that basic fact; and I worked at parliament, our equivalent of the US Congress, as well as attending the Security Council of the United Nations, so I was given wonderful insights. Great talk guys. Your reflections on 'process' and interaction were insightful and have broader application than just Harn, or voice-overs. Well done.

[@paavohirn3728]

That was amazing! Huge thanks to the team! The art, maps and the article texts are great! Congrats Trevor for your appearance in the world! 😁

[@ryanmechel4161]

I have loved harn since discovering Azadmere and Chybisa modules in the 80ies.

[@ArnauMartinez-dr9pp]

Hey Trevor, following your review in the Sage's library, I decided to buy the Harnmaster. It arrived just in time for Christmas!

[@michaelmullenfiddler]

I started listening to (sometimes actually watching! Lol) Trevor partly because he talks about Harn. Now come to find out he is "Harnfamous". Lol

[@GrantDalgliesh]

This was great to watch. Thank you all!

[@video36]

Thanks again for having us on for this chat. Excited to see Harn get some love, growing with new fans. Its been a long time coming. Also, thanks for modelling for Vulenheim. Im sure you will be a major player in many campaigns for years to come.

[@Guildofarcanelore]

I’m a registered Harniac. I wish Harnmaster would get more love.

[@andreasmuller5223]

I'm very eager to try it out. However, those prices are too steep :-(

[@hoos-karl7807]

@@andreasmuller5223 - keep your eyes on Drive Thru there are often sales there. Also Columbia has a few freebies.

[@Guildofarcanelore]

@@andreasmuller5223 you don’t need much to get started.

[@paavohirn3728]

​@@andreasmuller5223That's true. I ended up starting to collect the pdfs in a somewhat focused way when they're on discount on Drivethrurpg. Especially those often 50% offers drivethru sends by email. I know it still ain't cheap and it's slow going but it's somewhat feasible for me.

If Ragnar Lothbrok incarnate says Harn is good, it must be good.

[@patricknilsson4360]

”Father with a loud voice” 😂 Thanks old friend.

[@michaelmullenfiddler]

No ballhogs in Kiraz... 😁

[@Chivalrics]

Thanks for this interview!

[@7mmScout]

Very interesting. But ...is that Mike Ehmentraut?

[@Shamustodd1]

Harn was very hard to collect. I loved the world but could rarely afford it when I found it. Ended up selling what I had years ago but never lost my love for the setting.

[@RUdigitized]

I met this guy at gencon and he was so great

[@bradleyhughes8065]

A bit off topic but is there any plans to do a Ironsworn delve or starforged play through? Your play through helped me a lot with my dyslexia to understand the rules clearer and helped me fall in love with Ironsworn, even bought the physical copy!

[@MGP2210]

5:52 A face for radio, and a voice for print. 😅 🤪 😂

[@antoyal]

52:55 Nice!

[@MrPrimalAndrew]

H A R N !

[@JohnDretired]

Why are the Harn products so significantly more expensive than other game systems? Especially considering they come in looseleaf. Also, the PDFs are in a similar state.

[@agrayday7816]

Harn!~
