Playing Catchup
Unfortunately, real life has intruded a bit into game design time. I'm taking on a new job at a large security company, and between the added days of work for certification and training, and the push for all things Gen Con, I've had to neglect work on Creatures Strange and Deadly. At this rate, I'm unsure as to getting the supplement completed in time for Gamers' Reunion in Rochester in September... but I'll try.
Products Available Ahead of Website Updates
The hardcover for Kingdom of Ashes and A Time to Kill have both been released into the wild via my page on Lulu, but the website doesn't have links up yet (which is my fault, not my webmaster's, for being behind). You can order copies
here. For whatever reason, the Kingdom of Ashes hardcover still has a spine with the word (hardcover) on it, beneath the pretty black and white coverslip. I don't know why this won't update, and will try to fix the little glitch before Gen Con. Speaking of which...
Gen Con
It looms large. I will be participating at the Forge Booth, which is sponsored by Adept Press, located at booth 1912. I'm bringing a small army of products. They, and their Gen Con pricing, is as follows:
Factions at War: $7
Factions at War Revised: $25
Factions Player's Guide: $16
A Time to Kill: Factions Combat Compendium: $12
Kingdom of Ashes (softcover): $12
Kingdom of Ashes (hardcover): $32
In addition, I will be *giving away* copies of Factions at War throughout the convention. My goal is to leave all but 5 copies of the book in Indiana, one way or another.
In addition to spending a great deal of time at #1912, I will be attending the Diana Jones Awards, as well as the Ennies, and will likely be found wandering the open gaming area of the Embassy Suites lobby most evening hours.
Agency Hunt: Part II
Finally got the rejection letter from Agency Choice #1. I have four others in my immediate sights, and will commence with the Query Letters in short order. On average, I have 11 rejections to go.
All for now,
