We got some mood lighting going for last night’s game of Fear Itself. It was a fun time (if a bit disturbing, haha). GUMSHOE is an interesting system, mostly in the sense that it kind of gets out of the way and doesn’t interfere with the story much. It also does a good job of portraying characters who are essentially helpless and for whom every action could mean life or death.

Thanks to Daniel Lewis for running the game.

I’m thinking about running some Google Hangout games on Thursdays from 7-10:30.

Tonight was our sixth session of Oceans of Order & Chaos (and seventeenth session overall). This wrap-up of the Reaver’s Rock adventure saw our party doing battle with the spirits of the Three Wicked Kings (Old King Mermeron, Old King Abradon, and Old King Celadon), as well as lizard men and flesh golems. Additionally, they discovered the gruesome method by which Gormakir and his lizard men raise and nurse the baby hydras that will help them eradicate mankind in the Dagger Isles.

Thanks to Daniel Fowler for playing the only character with a moral compass (it helps to have at least one). And thanks to Kerry Harrison Alexander Hay , Ian Hay and Daniel Lewis for a great session.

Anyone who games with me knows I enjoy making laminated play aids almost as much as I enjoy gaming itself (it’s my version of painting minis). I was organizing them the other day and thought I’d take a pic.
