FnordCon goes Virtual: April 17-19

Bygamingballistic

With the world currently pressing the “pause” button, many conventions have been cancelled, Steve Jackson Games’ FnordCon being one of them.

Originally scheduled April 3-5, it has been re-imagined as a Virtual Convention, to be held on Discord.

The schedule is firming up, and I’m sure SJG will have more to say about it in the coming days.

Virtual FnordCon

April 17-19 on Discord

Gaming Ballistic will be there! I’ll be on a few panels (TFT and GURPS), and my understanding is that there will also be some sort of dealers’ room, with a dedicated channel for dealers, pinned links, and plenty of opportunity to interact with the creators.

In any case, put it on your calendars…and drop on by when the time is right!

Melee Academy: Combat Grappling and Wait

Bygamingballistic

Welcome to the second installment of Melee Academy! Grappling seems pretty cool. The benefits for throwing someone to the ground are pretty impressive in GURPS. They have to spend a few turns getting up (unless then can Acrobatic Stand), while prone they’re at -4 on their hit rolls and -3 while defending. While kneeling, which…

I continue to get layout in on The Book of Heroes. It continues to look good. There’s four small and one giant chapter (the spell lists) yet to do. I’m very happy with the layout of the book, and I will likely be taking the time to make art notes for the first ten chapters…
