Here’s what I want: The third film — that red one on the right, there — doesn’t exist. It’s the poster I knocked together for the sequel I want to see happen right after Carpenter’s original. The title is “The Thing” in Russian (well, according to Wikipedia and Google Translate). Taking information provided in Carpenter’s… Read more »

It’s Quiet
Last year I made it to number 11 in the final round of Tenkar’s Tavern’s OSR Superstar Competition. That being a thing long over-and-done I thought I’d release my entries into the wild. So, here. Its_Quiet01 Its_Quiet_map_hires01 But wait, there’s more. I also wrote this: Its_Quiet_bonus_Cacofonix01
Look to the Skies!
My goto genius is wrapping up the first 24 as I type this. They’ll be available through the site in January.
Honesty is the best policy
I recently realized something about the shenanigans of published RPG articles, modules and supplements that throws off my various 3d6-in-order, etc. converters for Mutants and Death Ray Guns and Song of Blades and Heroes.

Dr. Steve Broo’l says, … “Breestmen!” Reaper Bones (here, here and here).
Thoughts on Empire of the Petal Throne
House-rule Dump! Here’s my first run at how I’m going to treat armour and such: EPT_armour_shields_weapons01 I’ll be granting players the option of giving their characters either the rules-as-written version of Constitution bonuses/penalties or this version by Glenn Rahman, from Dragon 31 (no back and forth though; you’re either an ox or an ocelot: choose):… Read more »
Thirty years on, I like what I like
In 1984 Pepe Moreno created “Bunker 6A.” In 2013 Hajime Katoki directed “A Farewell to Weapons.” [The above link is a Japanese voice/Spanish text version of “A Farewell to Weapons.” This being the interweb, with its millions of Japanese speakers and millions more Spanish readers, I’m posting it anyway. Besides, it’s awesome in any language.]… Read more »
Incoming!
Now that it’s en route to casting, I can show you something. Inspired by this: And this (step ahead to 2:20): https://vimeo.com/74577166#t=140s I’ve done this: Another masterpiece by Bob Olley. It comes B.Y.O.T. (Bring Your Own Torso) so you can make the rider look however you want. Here are two excellent lists of torsos, arms,… Read more »
