new entirely; in fact since that last post, we have received another submission for FreeDLs.
This makes two waiting... and I already had another waiting from my stable, so that make three.
It's difficult to not get overwhelmed, so if a person submits a 'Free DL' and provided say, professional grade (like Joe Singleton's work!) commission black & white art for me to work with, it certainly helps (but is not required).
I'll get to them as soon as time permits... I have a lot of balls in the air juggling... Smiley


Well, AK, speaking as a novice juggler, I'd offer the following advice: take your time. It took me time to make my free DL, so I'd rather wait longer and see a carefully crafted product than one that's done sooner but lacks your unique polish. Besides... it's not as if we are starved for new content, eh? If you need a break - take it! Smiley

Ramble


Let me echo Ramble's statement here.  There is now WAY more stuff than any player/GM could use, even if they played every day for months!  Keep the quality up and take breaks when needed!  Smiley

Ah well... in drawing the counters, I am on the part where CHESS makes an appearance in the adventure... time to draw some Rooks and Knights...

These guidelines actually exist on Page 29 of the Revised Edition...
But I could stat them out if necessary...

Wow, they totally are on page 29...and I knew that at one point.  And somehow COMPLETELY forgot about it for about the last oh, 5 years.

That said, an example knight or rook would be cool.  Someone more fleshed out than the guidelines.

Maybe you should check out Mercenaries.
Alexander VI is a former Chess Knight turned Mercenary/Super Villain. He still works at CHESS as a Rook/Technician as a cover to gather intel, and he uses an upgraded CHESS Sky Cycle.

And is there a taboo about "the monkey", because i feel the same way about "in broad daylight"... is it a good one ?

I saw two different reviews on "Signs of the Zodiac". If you look at the "Signs of the Zodiac" thread, you can see some of the some of the chatter about it.

When I wrote SotZ, I built to have enough content for at least three adventures in it (the two featured adventures Firestorm and Quicksand, and then the Zodiac home base which can easily become a battle zone if the heroes follow the Z back home). It's also got various supporting characters and plot threads that an enterprising GM can work with.

I think it's a good sourcebook/adventure, but I wrote it so I'm completely biased. Got a question about it? Let me know.

Well, I'm guessing it's OK, to go ahead and post this. Here's the cover to a little something I've been working on, called Mall Madness. More on it as it get's closer to completion.

Thank you. It's always cool to have home base and stuff. It's something i'm not into as a GM Embarrassed


In fact i was looking for a feedback by some GM's that would have played it. (Is it easy to play? Feedback of the players etc..)
I'll chek on the reviews

Thanks! (although I can't take any credit for the the cover)

I hope it does not disappoint. Yad did some nice art for this one, and James corrected my many errors.

As far as I can tell at this point - it's ready, so I'm on to the next book.

Art-guy Yad is now working on "The Department" - A Department-88 source-book. (I love watching Yad work on mecha - he gets all frustrated  Grin ). I'm actually finished with "The Department" so I'm working on an adventure this time.

Cool!  How soon for Great Bridge 2?  Department-88 sourcebook?

Also, Mall Madness?

Thanks!

Great Bridge 2 is ready to go - it just needs to be posted (I think there is a software issue or something holding it up - I know Jame's PC bricked on him.

IS UP ON THE FGU SITE

"The Department" is written, and Yad is working on the art for it. It's gonna take him a while, but the stuff I have seen is pretty cool - so it should be worth the wait. I had almost as much fun writing this as I did writing Marie (and that was a blast).

My current writing effort  (takes place in Space) is turning out to be MUCH more complex than I first imagined, but should be completed about the time Yad finishes the art for "The Department".

Thanks for your patience, everyone.

Great Bridge 2 is available/on sale at the FGU web site.

I apologize for any lack of expedience; I've just been swamped by an entirely insane amount of responsibility in all facets of life. I hope everyone is doing well.

The first Great Bridge was delayed as well, although for very different reasons. I think I am seeing a trend forming.

But, things happen, and computers brick themselves, and life is only easy on TV. I'm just happy to see it on the site now. though I admit to getting a bit "anxious".

Back to work...

OK, I got few minutes of spare time, so I posted the link on several forums, as well as sending out info to the Yahoo V&V groups.

The two villains who stand out to me are Dorobato and Inarri.

I noticed that in both the original Great Bridge and Great Bridge 2 the power Heightened Attack is described as +1 to hit per level rather than +1 damage per level per the V&V rulebook.

I have been hearing the same about Dorobato and Inarri from a few other people. I figured the Vampire-bondage-fairy would get more response. Or even the flying fat guy. But those two have "something".

As for my confusion on HGT ATT... Uhhhmmmm.... It's a Variant Rule! Grin (See VV2, pg 44, section 7.3 - totally lame, I know...)

Honestly, guys, I just made a mistake. It is likely that EVERY time I have ever used Heightened Attack, I put it in wrong. I just got it stuck in my head that way and can't get myself to change it - at least I'm consistent.

My NEXT FREEBIE: John's Errata. I figure I'll toss in the actual names of the Armor Dolls since I totally head-spaced on that one...


<edit> I checked "The Department", and somehow I got it correct. Got it wrong in "Centerville Incident" and "Power of One" Huh</edit>
