Well moved good, health good, blogging more again. Gaming 3 times a week plus once a month and more if i want with game club downstairs (and ninja dojo).
My EMO dnd now 8th level trying to play through levels fast to test system and for nostalgia of working to high level again. Some of gamelogs here developed separate followers to my d100 table stuff.
15th C cthulhu-darklands mashup game on sunday arvos as break from cthulhu which i will use christian art as scenario seeds.
Playing a 1979 government mythos investigators late Thursdays. Playing a bodyguard who watches the psychics back and prevents him being captured by foreign powers.
Offered to join in a DnD 4th ed game - watched them a few hours of play with no dice rolled at all. Fairly serious goal oriented role players not story gamers. Didnt see any mechanics in play so looks good. DM had a whole box of battlmaps, a laptop, npc cards, boxes of minatures the whole shebang. Makes my pile as big as a a4 ream look like nothing. I may give a go as they are all my age and different to every other gamer group ive seen outside my own in Sydney. Have a story with less flamboyant egoism, good role playing.
I did last few d100 tables in response to others in part so suggestions for more welcome. I'm writing for campaign needs and will re-write old ones needing more entries as some only d20 (i was a wimp then).
I have a lot of paperwork next few weeks then some big layout projects after. Revise my EMO rules or at least basic version as pdf. Revise my Psychon book pdf. Redbrick dungeon book will be a product for sale as easiest to do without legal issues. Start working on Gothic Crypt dungeon follow up. Gothic Crypt dungeon will include geomorphs (found my architecture books!), d1000 curses, encounters, melodramas, crypts, graveyards and mausoleums.
Ive play tested Redbrick book lots now and works fine.
No reliable editors come on board so still my biggest publishing hurdle - still looking. Have art now so running out of problems stopping me.
