Back from Gen Con!

Gen Con was flat-out amazing. I’ve been to the show 23 years in a row now (I started young), and I can’t imagine my summers without it. For me, this is like summer camp wrapped up with Christmas in August, except you get to pick out (and buy) your own gifts.

Gen Con Ho!

I’m in the throes of preparing for Gen Con this week. The show, the greatest adventure gaming convention on the planet, runs from August 19–22 in Indianapolis. I miss having it in Milwaukee, but last year Indy proved itself to be a fine venue, and you couldn’t ask for a better group of people to run the show than Peter …

The Authority RPG Due Before Gen Con

The kind people at Guardians of Order state on their website that The Authority Role-Playing Game should be out August 16, just in time for Gen Con. I wrote the player’s chapter for the book, which was a blast and a half. I’ve been a fan of The Authority comic book since issue #1, so it was a thrill to …
