Tabletop games, whether roleplaying, board, card, improvisational or otherwise
The rather engaging image from the front of the ‘Crash Course Manual’ is currently up on eBay, selling from a mere starting bid of $1,200. While the premise and book largely sucked, the cover does provide a rather fetching image that might adorn the wall of some lucky citizen. Rendered… Continue reading Crash Course Cover Art
Quick post. Got the new Black Missions version of the PARANOIA Troubleshooter book. A quick scan indicates re-organised, re-fonted, re-formatted, re-illustrated, and reduced in thickness/weight. Essentially, Allen’s XP edition with tweaks… and my name misspelt in the credits. Mongoose have been informed and termination vouchers duly issued. I’ll post more… Continue reading Black Omissions
Interesting set-up at Svalbard – Seed Vault – where the hope of generations to come, post-apocalypse, sit in racks of dark grey boxes. A holy grail for Sierra Club members, and undoubtedly there’ll be a way in via the Underplex. Accessing from underground would obviously be a lot easier than… Continue reading Seed Vault
If you haven’t made the most the chance to get hold of the current PARANOIA line in PDF format from DriveThru before now, then you have less than a day left to get over there and do something about it. Right now, I’m struggling to get my head into gear… Continue reading Last Chance to See
Off to the UK Games Expo in Birmingham tomorrow. Should be a quick drive (less than 2 hours traffic permitting) and I can then have a snoop around the game stands to see what’s new. Last time I was there, they had the new edition of Talisman (before Games Workshop… Continue reading UK Games Expo

I’m definitely certain there was something that happened today that made me think of PARANOIA. Now, however, so many hours after whatever it was, I have forgotten. Not a clue. I can’t believe that it has simply slipped away. Oddly, time continues to slip away too and I’m getting precious… Continue reading Amnesia
I find writing can take on many of the characteristics of a river – sometimes free flowing, other times clogged up with silt. I have spent a good while jammed up behind a big beaver dam knee-deep in silt, but I feel I may be coming up for a change.… Continue reading Lost – Day #104
I notice that Gareth H. (@mytholder) has been muttering – well, tweeting – about having a problem with the end of a PARANOIA mission. I have been keeping an eye out for his posts and Tweets because I’m interested in how the new edition of the game might be developing.… Continue reading Can’t Tell Stalk from Mutter
For anyone keen to try PARANOIA for the first time or simply fill out their collection in a way that doesn’t impact the world’s trees, you can currently get pretty much the whole range at a discount online. DriveThruStuff have a celebration of the GM on this week – advertised… Continue reading GM’s Day
