So things are moving on with Sanctuary, the survival horror game I had scribbled up a bit about. Mainly this is thanks to Kelly from the Dutch Invaders who had a really interesting setting from a novel she had been working on. She let me steal it and so I have been tweaking Sanctuary a […]

We really need better NHS dental care in this country, but until then I guess it means I get to make slightly more regular updates. I went to Dragonmeet at the weekend, what can I say? It was Dragonmeet, same as always. I helped out with the Indiemeet Games on Demand stuff by running Fiasco […]
Read moreConception and Updates
Conception is over for another year, I’ve put a brief con report up at the UKRP forums. My game of the con for playing was Montsegur 1244 facilitated by Rich Lacy. I was completely carried away by the story line that emerged for Corba, and am glad she finally got her revenge. I also ran […]

Managed to get in a playtest of What You Wish For, it was generally well received by the players with some useful discussion. The main thing I am learning is that I need to be more clear about how the structure is supposed to flow and the things that the game is designed to explore. […]

We playtested the game and it worked however I wasn’t particularly keen on the story that we produced, but that’s just how gaming goes sometimes. […]

On Saturday I went to the regular London Indie Meet-up that I go to once a month. Due to the way numbers working out and my inherent reluctance to break people up from the games they wanted to play, I ended up without a game in the morning slot. Normally I would be pretty bummed […]
Read moreConception and Narrative Pursuits
I am back from Conception, you can find a full con report on UK Roleplayers in the usual place. The playtest of Narrative Pursuits went really well, most of the players seemed to enjoy themselves and all of them gave really great feedback. Each of the sessions was played with slightly different rules, and I […]

I am at Conception from tomorrow until monday, so I am hoping for lots of great gaming over the next few days. More importantly for those of you that are actually interested in Damwain is that I will playtesting my current game Narrative Pursuits whilst I am there. I know I promised a draft would […]
