Random Thoughts On A 4E Game

Not sure if I want to go anywhere with this or not... a part of me wants to do a classic fantasy world, another part REALLY wants to do full-on no-apologies space opera. Too many game ideas, too little time... Anyway...…
Chugging Along...

I really need to drop the ADD thing -- I have too many ongoing projects. My latest is a feeble attempt at a 4e Necromancer -- look here. I also have a ton of work I should be doing, but whenever I get an idea in my head,…
Feeling Better...

I seem to have pulled out of it. I know you were all deeply, deeply, concerned. Anyway, about midnight, I finally got some energy and cranked out 20+ idea for new 4e Rituals to submit to Goodman Games (it's an open call…

Over at mrlizard.com, an experiment in design for both 4e and 3.5, involving goblins. Other news... Saw Valkyrie. Very good movie, even though you know the ending. And if you don't know the ending, sue your high school…

Writing Instead of Working

I am looking at a smegload of coding to do. So what am I doing? Writing a blog entry. Lessee, played around w/4e in anticipation of Tony's theoretical new campaign. I love city games. :) Anyway, wanted to go with Eladri…
An Early Attempt At 4e Game Design

Still really, really, ambivalent about 4e. It goes out of its way to make itself hard to like. Nonetheless, I keep trying, because I don't want to lock myself out of a good chunk of the market and because there are inter…
Holy Freaking Cuisinart Of Doom, Batman!

Someone was worried about the lack of iteratives in 4e... Blade Cascade Ranger Attack 15 Daily Martial,Weapon Standard Action Melee weapon Requirement: You must be wielding two melee weapons. Targets: One or more creat…
