Donate to the RPPR Ransom, The Goblin Hulk, a 4E D&D Dungeon usable in any campaign! Tom, Aaron and I discuss our plans for this year’s Gencon and RPPR’s third time there. But before we get into that, I discuss the werestorm, one of the more baffling features of the World of Synnibarr. Tom’s going to play in several games and I’m running 6 games for Arc Dreams. Even Aaron is going to play in a few games, including some fancy Battletech Pods. Scott Glancy of Pagan Publishing might even let us playtest some new WW1 Call of Cthulhu scenarios.

Tom’s Call of Cthulhu WW2 actual play Shout-outs Last of the Living: Zombies in New Zealand. Hell Yeah. Ghostbusters the game.It’s fun, I guess? Survival City: Cold War Archeology, nuclear bunkers, missile silos and all that cool atomic era architecture. Blackest Night: I don’t even know. Hell’s Highway: A documentary about highway safety films, the first ultraviolent gore films. Dreamquest to Unknown Kadath the graphic novel: Lovecraft’s fantasy epic as a funnybook.
