Lincoln Station Stories

+Christopher Cortright has posted his supplement for Sentinels of Echo City, a city sourcebook called Lincoln Station Stories. It's a solid city resource (and is more fully developed than my own setting, Echo City, which has only been presented in broad strokes so far). Just reading through the book I had a half dozen ideas for adventures, and he's got some cool, unique concepts throughout that give the setting flavor. You should head over to rpgnow and throw a few dollars his way!

Teaching Ted Kickstarter

So I've launched a KS for something completely non-gaming related. I'm collecting my webcomics for Teaching Ted into one volume, and I've got some teacher swag to go with it.

Twitter Stuff

I don't know how many of you care about twitter, but I have an account there in case you want to follow along with my occasional musings and comic updates:

Kirby from the new ants comic has set up his own account as well:

@kirbythebot

And by the way, a new ants page is up today. So there's that.

Thanks to +magehammer Chad for the heads-up. You should be able to use code MARSHIP to get free shipping at Lulu for the next day or so... it looks like it's US only, but now might be a good time to stock up on some books... just sayin'.

Shards of Tomorrow Revised and in Print

Look at me, a whole 50 minutes early!

The revised pdf for Shards of Tomorrow is now available on RPGNow. This includes minor corrections based on the errata that people had suggested or which I had found. I ended up not including an appendix on companions, because I wasn't really happy with how it was turning out, and I decided to save it for the next issue of Splintered Realms Magazine.

You can also order your copy of the print edition now, BUT if you purchased the pdf, you should follow the link in the revised file (bottom of the last page) to get the $5 discount on the print edition.

Thanks!

Splintered Realms Magazine #1 Now Available

The first issue of Splintered Realms Magazine is now available as a pay-what-you-want download.

This ongoing publication is your go-to resource for the old-school games Saga of the Splintered Realm, Sentinels of Echo City, and Shards of Tomorrow. Resources for all three of these B/X-inspired games will appear in every issue.

Even if you don’t play these games, the resources herein can be used for any old-school game with minimal tinkering. And, because it’s all released under either a Creative Commons License or the Open Game License, you can take the content and use it anywhere, and anyhow, you want.

This first issue includes new archetypes and a campaign setting for Saga of the Splintered Realm, a cosmic adversary and GM guidelines for Sentinels of Echo City, along with a guide to bounty hunters and stellar random encounters for Shards of Tomorrow.

In the long-standing tradition of comics artists, the cover of this issue is a tribute to the frontpiece of the greatest edition of any game ever published.
