Quick Note – I am being kidnapped!
Okay everyone I’ve got some bad news. Starting tomorrow the blog will be on haitus until the end of June. I’ll be away, down in the southlands of the original colonies were a beautiful woman has decided to spirit me away to … and on a beach lock me to her. In other words I’m […]
Maps for play
Playing around with pyromancer map creator again. I may use these … just not certain as for what. Maybe for that Pathfinder experiment I’ve been itching at … or something purely 5e … or hell all three!
Quick Note – The Devil You Know
For the last fifteen minutes (as my son watches a 19-year-old girl ballet kung-fu in a seedy space bar) I’ve been staring at this. I’ve been debating it for the last three weeks, even unpacked the core book and monster book from their box in the attic. Gulp.
Quick note – five Ways to Add horror into Your Adventure
Five ways to add horror into your adventure. Horror doesn’t always work in gaming especially on the large scale. The more you try to make an entire campaign of Lovecraftian or Ashcroft style horror the more you will typically lose your players. Why is this?

It is still labelled as a Work in Progress. Today the wonderful blogger member, Scarecrow reminded me about this and so I am […]
Quick Note – Character sheet mock-up
Chromatic Commandos is nearly done its first draft. I’ve already gotten some good words about the character and combat rules and soon the introduction, Referee and Sample Setting/Adventure will be complete. I’m in the market for a name credit only (since CC will be pay-what-you-want) person who would be interested in creating the character sheet […]
Quick Note – X-Plorers’ Centaur Class by BD Games
Hot on the Heels of BD Games’ Xplorers Quick Start guide is the Centaur Class and optional rule set for Brave Halfling’s Xplorers rpg. At this point it seems certain that BD Games have taken the reins of the Xplorers franchise out of Brave Halfling’s hands, much in the same way that White Wolf took […]
Quick Note – X-Plorers of Terra Nova
No, no, no I am not annoucing yet another project, but this one goes out to +John Adams and Brave Halfling games. Xplorers rules in a Dinosaur setting. Crashed spaceship leads to a colony or time travel alternate timeline. So that is the idea that popped into my head as I was laying on a couch, […]
Quick Note – Fever-addled Ramblings
I am sitting at my desk regretting the fact that I am currently alive thanks to this damned cold and staring dumbly at my “character creation” doc for the Modern Setting/OSR rule set I’m working on.
