Ennie Submission is in!

Bygamingballistic

So, just for fun, I threw my hat into the ring for the Ennie Awards in the Blog category. Much like +Peter V. Dell’Orto I don’t expect to win. But exposure is good.

The entries I submitted:

My interview with +Kenneth Hite

The Melee Academy post on Ranged Weapons

The blow-by-blow report for the fight in Iron Man 2: Technical Natasha.

I guess we’ll see how things go!

Also: you’re asked to submit a “theme song” if you win. Mine’s Sons of Odin, from the Thor soundtrack, starting at 0:30. Heh.

Things have been sparse around here for the last few days. Mostly a lot of campaign prep for this weekend.

Thursday is GURPSDay, and much like Christmas time, I was gifted with the transcript that someone did of the conversation between Hunter Shelburne and +Rev.

I’m joining  +Christopher R. Rice and diverse others to play in a GURPS Supers campaign. Christopher writes about it here. This will be novel for me in a few ways. The first of which is that it’s, by far, the most complicated and high-point-value character I’ve ever played. I’ve also never played Supers with GURPS, though…

We didn’t have enough people to run Majestic Wilderlands today, so we yakked a bit about magic items and game design.  One thing that came up was a rules variant, based on the “you got your GURPS in my D&D” concept. But not even really that. The basic philosophy was that of the OSR and…

My wife will don a Black Widow costume this year for Halloween, and so I’ve been prop hunting. I looked for the Glock 26 that Agent Romanov uses in the Avengers movie, but Glock got medieval on replica and airsoft gun makers (in fairness, it’s their right to do so, and if you don’t protect…

Bygamingballistic

Shawn Fisher, co-author of GURPS High-Tech and GURPS WW2: Hand of Steel (among other published works) posted a comment to the thread on rules-lawyering that somehow bounced from Blogger. He contacted me offline with the comment, which was fairly extensive – too extensive to be buried in the comments! So here’s more fuel on the…

I wrote about a logjam of GURPS that was pending, right? And Pyramid being awesome GURPSiness? Well, check out the GURPS News. Excerpts from +Sean Punch‘s update (the text in green are his words, copied from the GURPS News) , with a focus on release dates: With other GURPS material biding its time, it seems appropriate to remind…
