Fiasco and Dread are both must-plays, IMO. And I liked what I read of Hollowpoint enough after getting it the other day I'm going to run it at DC Gameday in a couple weeks.

I've had the flu, so while bed-ridden I re-watched all of Season 2 in one glorious session. Now I'm hankering to run another session of my Leverage-based "Archer" game. Bummed I'm going to miss this one; I should have tried harder.

Emporium is in the last update. Another one is expected before the 16th with Heroes of the Feywild (since that's when the next season of D&D Encounters starts) but not confirmed.

I totally dig FATE. In addition to some of the points above, one of the things that is really neat is that the cool things that the characters can do comes more from *who* the characters are instead of *what* they are. If you're tired of games where characters seem cookie-cutter and the same...

Ashen Stars and Eclipse Phase, please.

Cans opened. Worms, everywhere. In short, Palladium has a reputation for (at-best) inconsistent/broken and often incomprehensible rules systems with a kitchen-sink approach to fluff that, incomprehensibly, some people find worthwhile. They also have a track record of being rude and...

Having run it a dozen times since it came out (including once for Piratecat), I really dig it. I talk about it a bit over here.

All planning and discussion of DC Gamedays is now taking place at Welcome to DC Gameday.

The ninth semi-annual DC Gameday will be on the 8th and 9th of October, 2011. The event will be held at the AFT building, at the corner of New Jersey Ave and F St NW (555 New Jersey Ave, N.W., Washington DC, 20001), two blocks from the Union Station stop on Metro’s Red Line. Join fellow...

I was the backup GM for the last Encounters season, and I'm a regular GM for the current Neverwinter season. For the most part, our players have been pretty good, the store is organized and has backup GMs on call, games all seem to start within 15 minutes of the 6:00pm start time (which...

I've read it (and the Dead Rock Seven adventure book) and am intrigued. I don't know that I'd call it space opera, or at least, it doesn't seem to fit my definition of space opera. Much more along the lines of something like the Flinx and Pip books than Firefly, IMO. Still looks interesting...

It was really about the voice, wasn't it.

One of the design goals of my 'Soul Riders' scenario was to explicitly accommodate the 'Dead Man Walking' option.

DC Gameday IX will be October 8th and 9th at the usual location. Signups, additional information, etc., will be at our new website, www.dcgameday.org.

That sums up my opinion as well. I saw the proofs at Origins and got to talk with some of the folks involved, and pre-ordered as soon as it was available. I'm really looking forward to playing it.

I don't know that 'objectively' it's a bad module. I'm not sure anything that's so subjective and variable from player to player could ever be 'objectively' anything. I didn't care for the sci-fi elements at the end. IIRC (it's been almost 30 years since I played it) we hand-waved a ton of...

Glad you enjoyed it. It was nice to meet you -- hopefully we'll run into each other at GenCon next year.

Game will be in the Embassy Suites. No tickets needed, it's an unofficial game.
