[Update] 22/02/2016

Another week down and I surprise myself by actually updating my blog. As per usual I can barely seem to focus on one particular thing at any one time, but at least I'm doing something!

Highlights for the week include:
  • More work on my Advanced Fighting Fantasy Adventure - The Loneliest Tower
  • Completed my January article for my Dark Conspiracy fan site - a review of A Gathering Evil novel (yes I know, I'm running late okay :P). I also started on my Feb article as well...
  • Completed some Dark Heresy Cheat Sheets for my Thursday Skype game. These worked well, even if they were underused (yes the mechanics are dense at first glance, but the basics are pretty straight forward).
  • I also updated my live journal blog with a personal observations on my game mechanics perspective. To be honest this was more to keep the blog from being deleted than anything else, and covers a bugbear I have with RPG mechanics.
  • Finally, I created a whole new blog to become a repository for the various articles, adventures, etc. I've written over the years for one of my favourite game settings - Sundered Skies.
So yeah lots and yet...

Welcome to the first post...

As I settle back into a regular work schedule, it is my goal to be more proactive on managing the creative projects I am focusing on. At present my focus is on a couple of ideas for:

Advanced Fighting Fantasy

After a great session with my sons and their friend, I have a renewed interested in this game (as published by Arion Games). In the last week:
  • I've started writing my own adventure - the Lonely Tower.
  • Created a number of cards detailing the damage/damage-reduction stats for each weapon/piece of armour in the game (this is to help the kids in future).

Dark Heresy, 2nd Edition

Last night we completed the 2nd session of our initial adventure (Dark Pursuits) from this campaign. As the intro scenes from this published scenario are quite linear, I've written an extensive number of leads/subplots to 'flesh' out this introduction.
