Goodman Games

Is this thread becoming for the twilight zone postings?

Nope - leveling is as slow as tar dripping in online games.

Um...west of house? I'm not getting the reference.

Back to editing. Busy month - but when isn't it.

Destiny of Steam and Steel Walking Towards a Cliff Besides the grinding engine it is quiet and deserted up the next staircase. A red link blinks. For a moment it is dark. Then it is red. Then it is dark again. For a moment the corridor is empty. Then it is dark. Then there is a figure. Then it is d...

BTW I've been trying to get ahold of you via E-mail and I've gotten a mailer demon - do you have a new address or is the one on http://www.malladinsgate.com/ correct?

Completing Just A Delivery I handed out a "Delivered" paper award I made up for the 'Con. Joseph Goodman also handed me out copies of the game and his product list to everyone. I ended every game with a review of the game and then told everyone I could get the writer to sign their copies.....

I ran Just a Delivery four times at the 'Con. It went very well. The first game was a little slow with only two players but I squeezed in 7 players during the second game. The third game I was late too (darned stomach) and only two people played but the third game saw a solid 5 people. One player ca...

(Cough, cough stomping that next thread down a little bit.:) Here are my picks from Gen Con. They even include that Luke Johnson fellow who was signing at the Goodman Games booth! I didn't take a lot of pictures this year so it isn't an amazing collection of photos. http://www.charke.ca/Gen%20Con%20...

I'm not freaking out about that one. It'll be burried shortly and of his two words, one is a typo. Very impressive.....

Destiny of Steam and Steel Stuff There is an animator, but it is partially combined with a disciminator, obviously something Hammer had been building as another member of his artificial crew. It looks like this item is designed to detect steam presure (from another device not present) and then turn...

Destiny of Steam and Steel Nothing Happens Nothing happens for about 15 minutes. Glod can finish off the unconcious baselisks if you want. Robert does not hear anything moving around, just the background noise of some of Neddirpik's equipment. Namfoodle is able to rememorize his spells. Basically i...

Destiny of Steam and Steel Dead Basilisks Namfoodle cast's color spray flooding the room with a chromatic rainbow. He manages to catch all of them in the area of effect and being so young they all slump to the floor unconcious. Glod starts blasting steam into the room (3 of the attacks hit, roll up...

Destiny of Steam and Steel Found it! After collecting your gear everyone takes a quick walk down to the Coglayer's Guild. You turn the corner and there, lying on the floor, are a half dozen small green basilisks. Hurray! You found the nest. Of course that cold feeling that hits you instantly right ...

The level-up looks fine!

"Unless any one thinks they can help Hammer, I think we should head towards the command deck. May be we can find out whats going on from up there." "Oh, and can anyone tell me what the hell a balisk is doing on board?" Have you ever seen Neddirpik's storage bays? There are hundr...

I'm going to be at Gen-Con Indy in August, so if anyone is going it's a chance to meet.

Mark Charke

The leveling looks fine. I'll make sure you guys have time after the Neddirpik adventure to do stuff. Shadow Binding is fine. I'll worry about the Shadowcraft Mage in 2 levels but it'll probably be okay.

Destiny of Steam and Steel One Room, One Less Music Getting to Namfoodles quarters is not very hard. Remember that tiny little room? It's still there. It seems someone left the door locked and the room has not been disturbed since. Everything is exactly as you left it, including oil stains on one o...

This is a funny topic. I've reached the point where I don't even like to build characters as a player, or use material as a DM that is "closed-content" (non-open content). I'm always stealing from my gaming for material to write about. My first few books had some rather painful re-writes r...

Destiny of Steam and Steel Doorways It is easy enough for Glod to unscrew the grate. It is noisy but perhaps not quite as would have been with the buzz zaw. Carefully placing the grate on the ground things are about as quiet as ever. There is still the hum of machinery that masks most of the noise ...

Destiny of Steam and Steel Together Music Robert grinds the air with his buzzaxe, cleaning gore off it. Hammer flicks his sword and drops it back into it's sheath. Connaught whips his rapier which hardly collected any gore. The fight is over. The crow and the raven crow down at Namfoodle and Glod. ...

You know, showing up to check the boards in May, skimming over the titles, heart skips a beat. Thinking about Red Dwarf and paused to actually check the replies. The irony of the internet is that people will still be reading this post next April.

I'm very much looking forward to Gen-Con this year. I've got band-aids on my fingers this year from writing... ...well only one and it's from something else, but I've done a lot of writing. Four whole days where I'm not thinking - 'I could be writing'. And I'll be DMing Etherscope: Just a Delivery. ...

Destiny of Steam and Steel Blood and Ichor Music Also wondering if you applied my DR2/- from biofeedback to the damage earlier (just checking). No, I didn't. Please reduce each attack by 2 points of damage. Green These zombies are not very tough and each of Robert's hits fells one. Buzzsaws were ju...

Destiny of Steam and Steel Two Fronts Music Glod crawls up the metal crawlspace. The checker plate siding makes it a little easier. The walls humm with vibrations from machinery working all around him. There is turning and grinding and air is being forced through the crawlspace by large fans... Nam...
