We’re trying to save the city in Freedom Five and this shit ain’t easy
So I found out that I bought Dungeon Crawler Carl book 1 exactly one month ago today.... ....while buying book 8.
I've got room for 2 more players in both Alien and The One Ring. The One Ring game has been going for awhile and is an easy one to bring people into. The Alien game will be a go with one more person. startplaying.games/gm/improvgm
I’ve got slots available for my improv workshops at Gencon! I guarantee you that “building characters” is just poorly named :). We’re not making ttrpg characters, we’re going into how to develop characters in play. #gencon
So Kinfore Council has a worker with my name. I almost never see my name in the wild.
I’m considering playing Chrono Trigger on my modded 1up arcade machine.
My Gencon improv workshops! Look up improvgm or “Mikel” to find them.
Alien Destroy of Worlds 1pm Sundays on Start Playing. 6-9 sessions Colonial Marines on the eve of war are sent into the colony to find four fugitives who've stolen assets. War is closing in and you will very quickly be on the front. Nothing you can't handle. startplaying.games/adventure/cm...
I also go a custom map in neoprene (?) that I wish I’d gotten a little bigger
2 games with slots open. The One Ring: The Darkening of Mirkwood and Alien: The Draconis Cycle. One is one of the great campaigns, a 30 year struggle for the soul of Mirkwood from the Shadow and the other is a tour through all of the Cinematic Campaigns in Alien. startplaying.games/gm/improvgm
I've got 2 seats open for both Unknown Armies (Wednesdays at 7 Central) and Angel: The RPG (Sundays at 1pm Central) over on Startplaying. startplaying.games/gm/improvgm
I’ve been there. It’s real. And has oddly lax open container laws
So far at Gencon, I’ve met another group playing Thunder Road. Vendetta in the lobby, the writer of 500 Year Old Vampire, and ran into someone who thanked us for playing the game her company made
I’m here for a conference but In my mind, I’m doing sick Tony Hawk grinds and kick flips down these rails.
3 of my workshops are now listed for GenCon. There should be more later.
Forbidden Stars. Really enjoyed this at 3 players. I think if we played again and used the same factions, it would be a much tenser game. I picked the right strat with the Orcs (helped by the Space Marines kicking me out of a place that Iwas like “I should be in a different part of the map, anyway"
There was a teacher on the Challenger and space travel, at that point, had regained a bit of its old magic to the masses with the Space Shuttle. I saw it in school.
The Clive Barker one sounds awesome but I haven’t seen anyone mention this: (I also haven’t seen The Mummy)
Another gig tonight. First time we’ve done a show at this place.
If you're a Champaign Urbana person, I'll be doing Pecha Kucha on April 20th at 7:30pm at the Gallery Artbar. 20 Slides/20 Seconds 8:20pm $10/$15 at the door Thecudo.org/PKNCU
