Probably because I started in the industry as a pro game cartographer... I wouldn't make that choice, but then I do create in a different order than others, I suppose. Once I get a general framework of the kind of nation(s) I want to establish in a given region for a specific story, I...

When I developed the Kaidan setting of Japanese Horror (PFRPG), which is set in a feudal Japan analog, I tried to cleave to historical Japan as much as possible (even though Kaidan is not Japan), and I made Kaidan a rice based economy, as feudal Japan was. At macro-level it's rice in million...

Well as part of The Planet Builder, a set up tables and rules I published last year, I included something akin to macroeconomics between starfaring nations, but it's in no way commerce at the player character level. It's more a world building tool. The first part of the book is about creating...

I participated, though I don't do freelance anymore not for 2 years now, I just used the stats from my last Legendary Games maps I did, even though it was the last out of 15 maps for that particular commission. While I've been a small publisher for 13 years, even while still doing commission...

I've been developing for Starfinder RPG, which is science fantasy. I'm probably more a fan of harder sci-fi, but since I'm publishing for Starfinder, I've been dipping my toe consistently in sci-fan. I'm okay with it, though not my pure preference, but I've been developing for it just the same...

Even before I was Gamer Printshop, as a publisher, every writing project I was involved in, I was also one of the 'publishers', so I was getting a share in profits, not a 'rate' per se. I did write the City of Kasai Gazetteer for Paizo, but that was part of a commission for a map, and I was paid...

I never play full casters. I know Rangers and Paladins count as part casters, but I put the separation between full and part...

The last group I regularly played with, the hostess (we mostly run games at her house), she has all the books (her Dad who is passed away was a DM and she inherited all his dice and minis). But she doesn't really read or understand the rules much, and she only ever plays a fighter, because it's...

Just a heads up. I wanted to get Hardcover print version of this publication, and in order to do that I had to pull the product offline from sales, while it goes through the process. It has been approved, and the printers at GM's Guild has shipped a single book, but it's going to take 3 weeks to...

Bloodwing Ship is a singular Spelljammer ship of 4 decks, made from the carcass of a gigantic beetle by a lich and empowered by the soul of a necromancer pirate captain, under a Greater Undead ritual, creating a vampire ship. It is crewed by strigoi (feral vampires) created by the ship by...

I didn't do the research, but someone in my grandmother's line of the Irwin family is derived from the Ulster Irish noble house settled in Southern Scotland during the Kingdom of Dal Riata of Erinveine (which means 'Irish' or 'western' noble). So if true this lineage precedes the Roman invasion...

In feudal Japan, farmers used an unofficial unit of distance measurement that every farmer understood. Due to metal scarcity, and the control of metals by the authorities, farmers were forced to weave wicker horseshoes, and a set of four such shoes lasted about 2.5 miles before they fell apart...

Come on: Stones, Hands and Leagues as measurements or go home! :P
