This is a question for TTRPG GMs. What RPG books, supplements, or accessories do you find yourself using year after year? Which RPG products provide the biggest regular impact at your table?

Kind of neat to see you on lemmy. I've purchased Return of the Lazy Dungeon Master and have watched some of your youtube videos, the 1 year of shadowdark was informative as I just started a Shadowdark version of Keep on the Borderlands.

I have done online only since the pandemic so GIMP, Inkarnate, Roll20, and ZIM Desktop Wiki are pretty essential for organizing as well as digital table-top for play.

I own and frequently use the (Stars/Worlds/Cities) without numbers books often depending on the genre for procedural world-building but I was recently gifted Microscope and im sorry did you say street magic so I'm looking forward to making the shift towards collaborative world building with the players.

Also from the SWN book are the faction rules which are broadly applicable.

Finally I usually reread the Mothership Wardens Operations Manual before I do my October horror one-shots

While I haven't yet purchased Justin Alexander's So you want to be a game master, I have extensively read his blog, and often reread it when creating for a new campaign.
