Phoenix Apocalypse

 The sun has started to rise over the eerie sky. The year is 2984. And the moon has started a war against the earth. About 60 Years ago we created colonies and cities on the moon and they have started rebelling against our control. But before I get ahead of myself. My name is John Gromes, I'm 27 and a electric farmer from outside the old Phoenix, Arizona. I have 2700 Acres of land that I use to create electricity for most of LA and San Francisco.- Read more...

I recently had the joy to play Nuclear War, a boardgame. It was the ultimate is "Take That!" gaming. It was a simple game with the only stategy of being the land country not nuked senseless and having population left after everyone else b lows themselves to bits. Gamed goes quickly and violently especially when I was refusing to have peace to allow propaganda cards work again,m ,it was more fun being a war-mongering fool and I managed to last until third frm the last country blown to smithereens.- Read more...

I am spending a week in NYC coming up and planning my evenings around games. Get to sample Scion out on a one on one game with my host and play a quest role in their D&D 4.0 game. I have not yet played 4.0 so I look forward to it a good deal. I also plan on meeting up with some gamers from the NYC Camarila chapter I am acquainted with. ON my vacation I plan games. I am a gamer geek and proud to be one.

I continue to be at a loss for gaming words. I cannot casually drop the topic of my book into conversation and cannot blog about it so I am stuck in my own brain and it's getting pretty whimsical. I find myself imagining creative ways to hide the bodies. Imagining elabroate gaming sessions in techniacolor with Cecil B. Demille closeups and multimillion dollar sets and Edith Head costumes to boot (oh especially the hobnailled boots!).- Read more...

As a writer of RPGs, I sometimes get stuck in the idea phase of a game. I have all the research done and NPCs stated out and listed and then I sit and stare at a blinking cursor for days trying to create plot fodder. You would think it comes natural and easy but alas, sometimes writing a game alone is lonely work and the blinking cursor is hypnotizing. I am not complaining about it but it is bone lonely work to create plots out of the threads I've already written out.- Read more...
