Looking forward to attending Gamehole Con next month! Just got my annual vaccines. While it won't help against all flavors of con crud, I'll at least hedge my bets. And I already had to miss one Gamehole Con because of sickness...

Ran a fun dinosaur themed one-shot of Outgunned (combining Outgunned, Outgunned Adventure, and the Dino Storm Action Flick) at BSer Con this morning. Thought it went well! Will run it again at Genghis Con next month.

My good friends from Italian studio TwoLittleMice have hit Mithril with their #TTRPG Outgunned. To celebrate they made a bundle to get into the system super cheap. It's my favourite system right now, gorgeous art, great translation, fast mechanics and this price is hard to beat. 50$ for 7 books!

If you run, or would like to run, the Vaesen RPG, I strongly encourage you to check out Wayne's adventure "The Invading Wood". I had a chance to playtest an early version, and it's great! Lots of attention to detail, great characters, advice for running as a one-shot or as part of a campaign, etc.

I really enjoyed running Outgunned RPG for the first time today at #BSerCon. I think the system accomplishes exactly what it sets out to. Cinematic action, with everyday heroes succeeding against terrible odds. And a joy to run (especially with great players like I had).
