Well, back from vacation and ready to get back to work. Tonight I have uploaded two more pictures of the Park Board under construction. These show the brick...
There's a new name for the Noir game and a new logo up on the Group Home page. I think it captures the "pulp" feel. Take a look and let me know what you...
Anyone who knows a little about Tarzan, knows that Edgar Rice Burroughs made up the race of apes that raised Tarzan. They were not gorillas and they were not...
Hey Rich, Your rules are pretty tight. I think we need to run a longer scenario to make sure some of the characters hit the "out-of-ammo" point. I also think...
I have to agree, that I find the excitement of not know when and if you will run out of ammo by having you run out on a roll of a one enjoyable as well,but I...
The historical crowd argued for ammo tracking, the other gamers liked the "out of ammo on a 1 roll." My fear of the paperwork involved in ammo tracking turned ...

Okay, first, I uploaded a new PDF to the files>playtest section. This is the sheet design for the playtest characters. Morale has been added as a stat line and...
I like that, it will ad a bit of drama to the game, and still keep it fast and fun. Gygax is to Gaming what Kirby was to comics Alas poor Elric I was a...
The initial information has been added for the Inventor to the files section. By adding this model to your side, players will be able to add new equipment and...
Rich, Just read the rules for the Inventor. I have a question about the gas gun function roll: By any chance, did you mean for a roll of a 1 to have a radius...
... the roll of 1 is the gun exploding in the user's hand. The 5" radius is from the shooter, not the target. ... model to be rendered unconscious, there...
Okay, I'm tossing out a new ability. Any Level 2 or 3 model can replace one of their skills with the Lucky ability. Lucky (+1): Models with this ability seem...
Rich, Sounds good. However.. Hero points can be used for movement. So a player can just use the lucky skill as a bump up on movement when not engaged with the...
I did contemplate that, but I'm not sure it needs to be altered. A model could use normal hero points to effect movement, these should be the same. The ...
Hey Rich, I was thinking about the "Shootout in the Park" scenario a little yesterday, and I was wondering how it would work if the Gargoyle and Bridget had...
Markus, I have played with the idea of limiting the hero points and have a possible way to do it, however, I'm not sure yet if it is needed. The last game that...
Sounds powerful, especially for those hero-point-challenged bad guys. On the plus side, it would encourage players to play their characters "more heroically",...

I've seen a lot of historical gamers popping in to the group and I wanted to give a quick overview of the game. Being a historical gamer myself (as well as sci...
I just saw a posting on the SFSFW (Society of Fantasy and Science Fiction Wargaming) Yahoo Group that The Virtual Armchair General will be producing a set of...
Richard: Patrick Wilson ("the" Virtual Armchair General) is a friend of mine and he recently emailed a description of his forthcoming Mean Streets range of ...
One of the things people have asked me about the most is how will model creation be handled? Well, I'm giving everyone a free chance to create their own Gat...
Rich, Just to be clear, does this example represent the ONLY skills that a level 1 henchman will have, or is this just a random sampling of useful skills for a...
This represents what the "Gat man" will have (for the most part. I'm still tweaking a little and might add a few.) The Bruno for example will not have the...
I just uploaded a new picture into the Board construction folder of the photos section. This is the park for the first scenario. It will make its BIG debut at...
I played on the completed board last week and it was really sweet. Nice job, Rich! ... of the photos section. This ... Cold Wars in March. I still ... ready,...
