Blood Bowl

SuddendeathAmazon.com has also posted the cover to Blood Bowl: Sudden Death, the third book in my Blood Bowl trilogy from the Black Library. The site lists the book to be released on April 25, 2006. Well before then, of course, you can pick up the second book in the trilogy, Blood Bowl: Dead Ball, on December 27, 2005.

The colors of the Sudden Death cover posted on Amazon are way off the real ones. To see Max Bertolini‘s art in its proper glory, click on the thumbnail to the left. Pay close attention to what’s really holding up the trophy. It took me a moment to spot it myself.

Beyond the Storm: Shadows in the Big Easy is now available in softcover as well as a PDF. You can order either or both versions from Lulu.com. All proceeds from the book go to support Katrina disaster relief. I’m going to order one for myself right now, and you should too. Not only is it a great book full of wonderful roleplaying game material, short stories, and essays, but it’s for a good cause.

For my part, I wrote up the “Naked Room Service” story of GAMA Trade Show legend in a piece entitled “Truth and Lies in the Big Easy.” As a teaser, here’s the first part of the story to whet your appetite.

Decipher just announced that it’s going to release some new books for its Lord of the Rings and Star Trek Roleplaying Games as PDFs through DriveThruRPG.com. This may include some books in which I had a hand back when I worked as Decipher’s Lord of the Rings RPG developer. Or not.

Honestly, it’s been more than three years since I left that position, and I can’t recall the titles of everything we had in the works at the time. Jeff Tidball carried on in my stead, and I’m sure the lion’s share of what may see the light of day will be the excellent fruits of his labors. I’m happy to see the material will finally be available to the public.

Battle Dice

I just saw a preview of the TV commercial that Playmates is going to run early next year to promote Marvel Heroes Battle Dice. This should get heavy rotation in lots of regions of the television lineup that I usually only see while peering over my kids’ shoulders. It looks great, and that’s even before they add the animated bits. Woo-hoo!

On September 21, I left the US for Prague, to witness the marriage of one of my best friends, Bill King, to the love of his life. I got back on the 28th, and I’m just now caught up enough to spend time on this website. As you might guess from the slew of new posts, I’ve had lots of things building up in the pipeline here, waiting for my attention.
