In Friday’s third and final slot, I ran the sequel to the game I ran last year: “…And a Little Child Shall Eat Them.” It’s a zombie setting in which the zombie apocalypse breaks out first amongst the worlds children rendering them fierce predators with supernatural strength. Imagine, a toddler with the strength to tear […]
After wrapping up my turn in Don’t Rest Your Head, I moved over to my next game, Succession Wars. Succession Wars is an eighties era, out-of-print number from now-defunct FASA. It’s a turn-based strategy game combining elements of territory grabs (ala Risk) and player negotiations (e.g. Diplomacy) with a healthy application of Battletech backstory applied. […]
Currently wiping commie scum off the face of the North American map. Worse their Red Monkeys rendering U.S. Citizens to mindless Zombunists!!! We’re playing 50s era superheroes with the Marvel Super Heroes RPG rules.
Just completed the Savage Ghostbusters game. Lots of great fun. Been awhile since I’ve played a game that didn’t involve the end of the world or consumption of human flesh. Lots of ghosts and proton pack goodness. I am attending the Fear the Boot live podcast right now. Pretty cool!
First game for Saturday is Josh’s Savage Ghostbusters game (Ghostbusters setting using the Savage Worlds game system). I’m playing Johnson McCoy, a redneck high schooler. Check the mullet, yo.
Sweet fancy Moses, I’m tired this morning! Fortunately, coffee and little chocolate donuts have swept in for the rescue! Yesterday was an unrelenting day of gaming goodness here in the greater Saint Louis area. Games started at 11:30 AM and pounded on for twelve hours. The con’s being held at Memorial Hall in Saint Charles, […]
Finished set up for the next game, which is an Out Of Print number called Succession Wars. It was published by FASA back in the eighties. Chris Hussey is reffing. I have a very sketchy understanding of the rules. And I have drawn the most challenging territory to play. About to have my ass handed […]
In my first game of the con… Playing Don’t Rest Your Head. What’s been keeping me awake? The sky is falling, man. The sky. It’s falling!
I had a terrific time at last night’s World Wide Wing Night, Fear The Con’s pre-con social event. Here’s how it works. Gamers. Wings. Beer. Cigars. Brilliant combination. A lot of us gamer types are not the most sociable people in the world despite the fact that we are engaged in a hobby that’s all […]
Chad gives a presentation on how to smoke a cigar. Surprisingly awesome!
