Wargames and Roleplaying Games and Game-Related Computer Stuff
I am sooo bored!
So I've decided to share an interesting superhero RPG with you.
This is "With Great Power...", the "Master Edition". It's surprisingly clever. I remember not "getting it" when I first read it, but having come back to it and done some research, it's pretty neat.
So strap on your shiny blue tights, because it's clobberin' time!
I decided to try something different. Into the Odd is such a clever little game with such a lovely physical book, that I just had to get some play time in with it. I don't have an RPG group, though (at least none that would be interested in this kind of RPG game), so I'm trying to play it solo.
Wait! Is this becoming the solo RPG blog? Are you trying to trick me? Is this a kissing blog?
I don't know. This is just where I am right now. I'm sure I'll get back to some minis soon.
More adventures with Pedro and Chaser! (A scant two years late.)
I don't know if anybody wants this, but my blarg is lying here, fallow, and I've got nothing else right now, so you get a clumsy attempt at some solo "roleplaying" using The Shadow of Yesterday and the Mythic Gamemaster Emulator.
When last we left our adventurous duo, they had crossed a perilous rope-bridge into a dark forest, escaped pursuit by Khalean ne'er-do-wells, and had a personal reckoning. It has now been several weeks of travel as they continue their treasure hunt, though their simple map is proving less and less useful. Following the coast northward, the days become warmer, signs of civilization appear less and less often, and the forest inland grows more and more dense. The strange hoots and growls emanating from the dark, wet jungle speak of death and danger.
Hello, humans!
Continuing from the previous post, Vorann's crew faces a new Challenge in "The Pod".
As they arrive in a new section of Space Station Zero filled with loose, sci-fi junk, a pod opens up and ejects some kind of device displaying a digital count-down.
Oh no! I guess we'd better get over there and disarm what is obviously a virus bomb! Good thing there don't seem to be any other threats in here. [wink]
Snarling Badger Studios came out with a new solo, sci-fi minis skirmish game and it had a great cover so I went ahead and picked it up.
The idea is pretty cool, and it has a sort of "rogue-like" quality that might work well for a video game, but seems to be ruffling some feathers as a minis game. Maybe it's just expectations? We'll see.
Regardless, I decided to give it a try.
