My characters have a tendency to capture murder-hobos in their sleep, then take them to the authorities and collect whatever bounty they have on their heads. I just don't like murder-hobos. I don't like the trail of bodies they leave behind them. I don't like that playing style. I don't like people ...

Wow, this is awkward. Alright, here's the deal. I freely admit that I have frequently made reference to my pro-credits here, without ever explaining them. I can't specifically point out the professional game design work I do here, because... A) The Den REALLY hates many of the products with my name...

I've only got one RPG credit to date: a little-known Star Hero setting published by Blackwyrm Games in 2011 called Terracide . I'm currently working very hard with the folks at Pinnacle on an all new expanded version of it for Savage Worlds, to be released early next year. :hiro: <--- see how hard I...

Re: Police Procedurals
What needs to be kept in mind when making a game/campaign where the players are cops? It doesn't matter whether you're angel cops in Finality, Men in Black in alien-infested NYC, or even Shadowrunners with a badge in Seattle. In any mystery-based game, you can't assume a party of Sherlock, and inst...

Basically, orcs are people, too. Orcs in this view aren't a corruption of nature, evil by virtue of their very existence. They're criminals, or an enemy nation. Their culture is evil, they're raised to be evil, but they don't have to be evil. So slaughtering their babies is evil, too. That's not fa...

Another thing: Does your fantasy setting have at least one deity in its pantheon devoted to Law, Justice, or anything remotely similar? Congratulations, you've got CHURCH POLICE! (With apologies to Monty Python....) They are all Lawful Neutral, and extremely zealous. They have a Holy Mission to hunt...

Does anyone remember the demise of GDW? The lawsuits surrounding the release of Dangerous Journeys ? The howls of protest from the Traveller community when The New Era was released? Either of those two alone would be a noteworthy debacle. But coming out in the same year as back-to-back releases, tho...
