Paradoxical

August 22, 2014 by Dave Brookshaw

One Pack, Many Prey

August 16, 2014 by Stew

Oh, that’s where you are! Why didn’t you say so? You did? Sorry, I was up past my ears in stuff for… well, other books being announced at GenCon right now. Anyway, the others are all there and I’ve got keys to the blog. David Hill’s around here somewhere, and he has comitted bloggeration, but that was in another timezone, and besides, the draft is red.

Yes, that’s the Jew of Malta in the opening paragraph. I don’t get out much.

Let’s start with some news. As revealed at GenCon today, the Idigam Chronicle is no more. It’s now Werewolf: The Forsaken Second Edition. I’m really quite excited about that. It’s the same great book I’ve been telling you about, but now the title’s not going to confuse anyone.

Awakened Inspirations

August 11, 2014 by Dave Brookshaw

Welcome back! It’s my last day at home before starting the Ohgod miles journey to Indianapolis and GenCon, but I think the poll on the last post is now comprehensively won by “Consilia,” and I thought I’d put the next post up.

Pathfinding

August 6, 2014 by Dave Brookshaw

July 30, 2014 by Dave Brookshaw

Welcome back to our tour of Awakening‘s Fallen World Chronicle. To the list of fora I’m now monitoring, we can add Penny Arcade’s tabletop roleplaying game thread. Hello everyone over there! So.

Excellent Things: The Gangrel

July 25, 2014 by Eddy Webb

First, a quick note: I’ll be closing comments on the Lasombra page as soon as I post this. As I mentioned previously, I’m going to try to keep to about a week’s time of open development so that I can keep things moving. Following the vigorous discussion of Clan Assamite for Lore of the Clans, … Read more
