I'm working on designing the Far Reaches World generation rules. They are also percentile based, so the variations are greater than a 2D6 system. I probably won't have them ready to show to the public until next year. I have other ongoing projects and I'm splitting my time between the several proje...

I've been working on a way to create aliens at whim, especially during adventures, when a player(s) wants to know the creatures around them. With this creation tool I can whip up an alien species fairly quickly.

The play testers and I have been hard at work simplifying and refining the Ordre Mixte: Napoleon’s Gambit ruleset. During recent test sessions, a few friction points emerged that slowed gameplay more than we’d like. In response, we've taken steps to streamline and clarify several mechanics to keep ...

I closed the voting in the other places, since no one was interested enough to vote on the names. But we did have a finalist, where one title accrued 113 votes. It was "Napolean's Ambitions". Does that mean I'm going to change the name? I'm considering it. I really wanted a little more in...

As I've expressed multiple times, it's best to ask your questions, air your opinions or make your suggestion in the foru...

As I've begun planning the background for the Cepheus based sci-fi RPG, I want to keep all the readers on here informed as to my current projects. The first is the map of the sub-sector where many of the initial adventures will occur; Zharria sub-sector in the Kakos sector, shown below. - Kakos-Zhar...

As a longtime historical wargamer, I found Version 1 of Bataille Empire to be one of the most balanced and thoughtful Napoleonic systems in recent years. It captured the nuances of command structure, unit types, and battlefield momentum in a way that felt both playable and immersive. However, I als...

One play tester group got together today, and they actually had cavalry charges. I was given a list of forces, but to keep things short and simple I'll post only the cavalry. The number is the number of squadrons, but they acted as a regiment. | Nation | Unit | Number | CE | MR | FR | Move | |-----...
