1) What is your favourite mythical or fantastical creature or tale from folklore and why? Ever tried incorporating that creature into a game? If so, tell us about it. If not are there any settings you feel they would work well in?
That one is dead simple: Orks and Goblins. They can be all. Big brutes, small cunning thieves, hilariously stupid and funny and they fit every universe. Because who has ever heard of a universe without fungi?
2) Favourite TV show or shows form your childhood. Have you ever re-watched them as an adult? If so, how did they hold up without the nostalgia goggles?
Uh, this may take a while. As I am a kid growing up in the 80ies I have a deep well to get stuff from. So let’s see:
- Transformers
- Mask
- Robotech
- StarCom
- Marshall BraveStar
- Jason and the wheeled Warriors
- Thundercats
- Robotix
- MASK
- He-Man
- Ghostbusters
- The Real Ghostbusters
- Inspector Gadget
- The Smurfes
- Ulysses 31
And yes, I revisited most and appart from some obivous plot holes in some episodes, most hold up. Sort of 😉
3) What is the one hobby project you have always wanted to do but have never started? What is holding you back from starting?
A full scale 4×6 permanent terrain gaming table. And what is keeping me from that and a lot of other projects: space. I literally only have the space in front of my keyboard as hobby area to myself. The rest is shared with wife and daughter. And it’s cramped full. We are looking for a house to buy but money is tight and the market for houses is somewhat heated and prices are up. So until I get a proper hobby room, it’l not get much bigger than my pew pew tower.
And now music:
Now excuse me, I have to work another hour, drive home, pack my imperial forces for Star Wars Legion and kick someones rear end. 😉
