A great kick-off to Season Three!
interesting podcast I think the black sun game will grow into a wider area with the stranger things twist to go many routes down the road.
There was a Black Sun table at Historicon. Honestly not my cup of tea, but the people there were having a great time with it and the minis and table looked great! 😀
did you see the article how to design one shot RPGs I think any good strange story could be made into a game with the black sun rules to great effect Jim.
I’ve run lots of military-themed RPGs, some of them right here on the site with members of the community, and one (not here on the community) had a supernatural angle in World War II. Gears are in motion to PERHAPS, big PERHAPS … run a small campaign of moderns, but with a supernatural angle to recruit some players that might not otherwise be interested in moderns (White Wolf Mage: the Ascension, 2nd Edition).

Nice to hear some talk about 3D Printing terrain as well. All it takes is a few Air Conditioner Units and a Satellite Dish and your Adobe Buildings for the Crusades turn into Rural Iraq/Afghanistan.
Indeed, @elessar2590 , Chris is a big 3D Printer. Another “secret sauce” for “time and place” for a table I find is signage. Super easy too, go to Google images, download a few highway signs, cafe signs, etc … from whatever area you’re gaming in, print, resize in any software (hell, PowerPoint will do), print, paste onto some old cereal box cardboard, cut, and blue-tack that s*** onto your buildings for temporary signage. This is PARTICULARLY effective in Asia, the Middle East, or Russia, basically anywhere where a different ALPHABET is used in signage. Turn your French Normandy village into… Read more »
Just wanted to say Sitrep had past me by, but i gave it a listen and loved it, I’m now binge-listening the old ones whilst at work! It has made me really want to try a modern combat game (Something i have looked at but never jumped in), recently in the pass it on that beasts of war did I got spectre ops and a couple of teams, so I think I will take the plunge (also have ordered skirmish sangin I also like the views of ex military personnel on the hobby (something I know nothing about), but i… Read more »
