/tg/'s homebrews
Tee Gee sometimes gets bright ideas about "original" settings and ideas which sometimes turn out to be awesome. However, known for the fa/tg/uys proverbial laziness (due to the intake of large quantities of meatbread) these project rarely come to any sort of fruitition. Nevertheless, everyone knows that /tg/ gets shit done.
What are homebrews
A "homebrew" is an unoffical, DIY modification, adaptation, setting or entire game made by the players themselves and not by the industry or professional developers. It is not intended for publication or wide distribution although in the age of internet people often share their work with others who might appreciate it.
