In all seriousness, you should be giving Bennie’s out a lot. If they aren’t doing many things that seem worthy, give them out automatically at scene changes, after a fight, every real-world hour like torchlight in Shadowdark. It’s also possible that looser standards of worthiness would help...

Well, dang, spoil it for everyone, why not? [Exit Bruce, huffing, hands on hips as if caught mid-calisthenics.]

Finished rereading Kim Newman’s four early ‘90s novels for Game’s Workshop’s Dark Future setting, published under his Jack Yeovil pseudonym. They are…exuberant. It’s the end of the 1990s. Oliver North is president. (Presidents since 1960 include Nixon, Agnew, and Heston, among others.) The whole...

It’s the removal of one of several small dams in the vicinity of Edinburgh a few years ago. Dam removal turns out to be a significant business these days: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dam_removal I recalled reading about it and couldn’t resist going for an image.

Warhammer: The Pogo Age?

Oh, sure, I like the work of Chris, Joe, Malcolm, et al. I have a bunch of friends at Green Ronin. But this is where my interest at the moment.

Just wanted to say: best wishes on recovery. A few years ago, I got hit literally overnight with orthostatic hypotension in the wake of a diabetic crisis - nearly lost my feet, and then couldn’t stand without help or walk. I’m slooowly regaining more functionality. Not the same as your...

Thank you for reminding me of Agents of Oblivion! I got that years ago on the strength of John Rogers’ endorsement and used bits of it in Fate. And thanks for your experience during Cthulhu stuff in Savage Worlds. How long did Masks take, and how did it go? On the side, I note that even just...

Thanks! That all sounds pretty appealing. :)

Yes, Conan would indeed be outgunned on the Planet of the Apes.

Yeah, the current RuneQuest art is glorious. I suspect it must be very similar to some of what was in Stafford’s mind. Ironsworn and Starforged have the best photo-manipulation art I’ve ever seen in gaming, with the possible exception of some of Dennis Detwiller’s art. It’s gorgeous and so...
