Lazy Company – Remember that warm mud?

Talk about crazy weather going abouts!

Good day and a New Year!

May she be kinder, calmer, and less chaotic, as I think we could all use a break!

Roan News

It is the last legs, one of my largest updates for the backers has gone out which includes rules for Ranks, Commendations, and Additional Talents.

Ranks allow Officers to earn a few bonus points and also increase their Platoon by 1.

Commendations can last for the rest of the campaign, or they can be spent as a limited time bonus.

Talents are merely abilities that offer Platoons an advantage on the field!

A few minor works are weapon names and descriptions, which should at least anchor things down with equipment weapons.

One of the biggest challenges I found with Roan World at War, is having to look at things from a Platoon perspective and not a Character perspective, where a shovel might matter to the character, it is superfluous to a Platoon.

Still, lots learned, and lots of fun, and soon you can all expect to then see other armies introduced, and the long in writing Cyberpunk series!

Till then, Game On!

Prepare for Spoopiness!

The dark comes, and the candy beckons hungry mouths to devour them whole!

Roan World at War is in the art phase, it is slow going, as art is, but nearly all backers have their character art, and progress is certainly being made, so YAY!

Till then, everyone be safe!

If you are in the US, and are of voting age, study up the people running and vote!

Game on and be well!

Artists need love!

These ponies are doing their part to keep things clean, are you!

With Covid-19 out and about, folks should remember to stay calm and keep a good habit of washing your hands, not coughing on people (use that elbow as a sneeze guard) and once again keeping calm!

Roan is in the final tweaks of magic and equipment, and then I can begin sending the draft out to CatsPaw for editing and layout, once the layout is done, artist can begin filling in for the required locations of the book!

Stay safe out there folks and be careful! With any luck, I will be seeing you all in California come April for Babscon!

If not, I’ll see you all next time, important to be safe, but still go and support your favorite artists and writers, as this will be some tough times for them!

Good day to you all!

I have been working on the Skill list for Roan World at War, which also involves a lot of editing when one realizes that certain skills don’t fit very well on a Platoon level.

With these changes, also comes the need to redefine what a Skill Specialization is and Skill Branches (normally called Specialized Skills in the HEX system…bit confusing there.)

The system shares some ground rules with HEX, but over all, it is a completely different system due to its nature of commanding a platoon, as well as extreme abstraction of warfare.

As well, a donation has been made to the 160th Night Stalkers foundation, and I’m just waiting on the finalization and receipt.

All that aside, I do hope you all are as eager for Turkey day as I am!

More importantly, I will be attending Babscon as a guest, and I shall be running a special game of Roan World at War for players who wish to join!

I’m extremely excited to be able to see many friends again, and I do hope you all are ready to support this great con so we can continue to meet new people!
