I don’t want to fill up our community with Kickstarter posts, but everything Ken Hite does with history is gold to me.  Also, the fact that it is based on Robin Laws’ The Armitage Files (the best sandbox campaign framework I’ve ever seen), upgrades it to straight electrum.  Mix in an annotated version of Dracula and you have solid platinum in my book.

Dracula is not a novel. It’s the censored after-action report written by Bram Stoker after Operation Edom, a failed attempt by British Intelligence to recruit a vampire in 1894. Edom is still trying — it’s up to you to stop them, and kill Dracula for good. The Dracula Dossier is an improvisational, collaborative campaign for my vampire spy thriller RPG Night’s Black Agents. It’s two books — the full version of Stoker’s report (Dracula Unredacted) and a compendium (The Director’s Handbook) of hundreds of encounters: shady NPCs, conspiratorial organizations, dangerous locations, and eldritch artifacts, any one of which might be completely innocuous or a minion of Dracula.

And by an odd coincidence, The Dracula Dossier is Kickstarting now. I’d appreciate your plusses, shares, plugs, shout-outs, and oh yes your cold hard promises of cash.

A new kickstarter from John Wick about legendary weapons and the heroes they wield… I mean wield them.  Jason Cordova , maybe we could use this to explore some of those artifacts from the Anthology.

A pretty enticing actual play report (don’t worry, it’s not a full blow-by-blow so it’s pretty short) for Will Hindmarch’s new stealth action RPG Project: Dark.  

It makes me think of the tense times I had playing games like Splinter Cell and Metal Gear Solid, except with an almost Mistborn milieu.

An idea I had for the Gauntlet Anthology is to play Our Last Best where the party is a bunch of adventurers trying to prevent some cataclysmic event (say, demons pouring out of a newly opened hellgate in the center of the capital city from over-running the country). Not sure how much modification OLB would require, but it’s worth looking into. I think it’ll be my next project.
