Skullduggery Playtest

Sunday, April 29th, 2007

Some of you may recall that, a while ago, I was working on a card game called Skullduggery. Well, it’s still under construction, and I had a playtest session with my friends Tad and Chris on Friday night. It went pretty well. There were some unclear rules and some things that needed [...]

Saga

Saturday, April 21st, 2007

Alright, some news: Gamecraft 2.0 is no more.
Wow. That was misleading. What I mean to say is, the project is still happening, but the name is changing. Gamecraft 2.0 has always been a working title for me, and I’ve been wanting to change it for a while; it’s too wordy, and the [...]

Review: HeroCard: Cyberspace

Saturday, April 21st, 2007

HeroCard: Cyberspace is the most recent addition to TableStar Games’ HeroCard series of board/card games. The fundamentals of the card battle system are the same as in all of their previous offerings (read this if you’re unfamiliar with the basics), though there are a few new (and very interesting) rules introduced via some characters. [...]

Prelude to a Review

Tuesday, April 17th, 2007

This is just a quick post, the the promise of something bigger later (probably over the weekend). I’ve got a lot of packing and stuff to do and, frankly, my spare time right now is being spent gaming. Some of that gaming, though, has been HeroCard: Cyberspace, TableStar’s most recent entry into the [...]

Wild Blue Playtest

Tuesday, April 10th, 2007

On Saturday, I went to my friend Mike’s house and ran a Wild Blue session with him and my friend Rich. I thought it was awesome. This was the first time that either of them had been introduced to either Gamecraft 2.0 or Wild Blue (aside from what I’ve shared on this website), [...]

Stories in Board Games

Sunday, April 8th, 2007

Monte Cook just did an interesting post on his blog. I must say that I do agree with this position. When it comes to board games, stories are great, but it’s the gameplay that’s the real clincher. I’m a big fan of games with themes, and I sometimes make my decisions based, [...]

Skill X

Thursday, April 5th, 2007

I guess I spoke too soon when I said that the Gamecraft 2.0 skill list was final. I did a little tinkering, and decided to take out the Survival skill. When I created the skill list, I wanted each skill to be general enough to cover a wide variety of uses. For [...]

My Candidacy

Sunday, April 1st, 2007

I’ve decided to announce my candidacy for President of the Universe. No, not really. Happy April 1st.

Some cool things

Sunday, April 1st, 2007

This past week was my spring break, and I got a chance to do some gaming and watch some really good movies. In no particular order:

I got to play some Runebound this week, which was great. I haven’t played Runebound in a while, but I thoroughly enjoyed playing it again. The first [...]
