Space and Spaceability

As a result of a forum discussion this morning, I dug up this old AP for a Jane-Austen themed space pulp session we ran about five years ago using Unviersalis. Despite being a full-force descent into the ridiculous, it's a great favorite of mine.

"There is no polite way to refuse you, therefore let me be impolite."

New Google Group for How to Host a Dungeon fans

Tavis kindly set up a Google Group for fans of How to Host a Dungeon. I hope we'll see some exchanging of dungeon maps, dungeon game discussion, and some forum games of How to Host a Dungeon. I think this is a good place for anyone who's a fan of the game, or just loves Dungeons and maps. It's still in the fledgling stages, so now is a great time to come by and say Hi!

How to Host a Dungeon on YouTube

Greengoat posted this awesome How to Host a Dungeon animation on YouTube. It's as good a demo of the game as I could wish for. It makes me want to pull the game out and play a few rounds.

Principia Ashcan at Gen Con

I've got a pre-release (or "ashcan") edition of Principia to bring with me to Gen Con this year. You'll be able to buy it at cost at the Forge booth ($11). The reason I'm selling them at cost is because I'm still tinkering with the game. It's ready to play for a group that's ready to tackle a work-in-progress and maybe help me tweak the design a bit. This is a chance to help me make this a game YOU would like.

Also, as a bonus, ashcan purchasers are entitled to free PDF copies of all future editions of the game.



It looks pretty, but don't buy it if you're waiting for the real first edition. That will be prettier and probably more streamlined to play.

How to Host a Dungeon: Revised Edition!

The revised edition of How to Host a Dungeon is now available! This edition features some rules clarifications (especially for the Dark Elf civilization), as well as new rules for aquatic and lava-inhabiting monsters, floods, and strange new worlds such like coastal regions, mountain ranges, and the Hollow Earth.

Also, if you're going to be at Gen Con this year, stop by the Forge Booth and visit me!
