I'm in the middle of making Matrix Games for Gen Con. I'm presenting them as board games with fold out hard boards so the map and counters (along with written...
... Intriguing. I can imagine this would be really good for discovery and exploration games. Will tile placement be random? Ongoing? One-time? Adversarial?...
For different games it could be done differently. What I do know is I like games where the tiles then form the "dungeon" the players move around in so that...
I worked long and hard this weekend and am begining to finish up my Gen Con games. All the old games are nearly done. Pretty shiny boxes with colorful shiny...
Exciting! I can't wait to see what you've got at Gen Con this year. My copy of Duffer's Drift is, alas, still unplayed. L My local group aren't as excited...
I've greatly improved the boxes. The covers now wrap around all the sides and the map boards also wrap around. I've switched from polyurethane to shellac as...
I've thought for sometime that the "Kids'n'Parents" demographic is where Matrix Games wouold truly catch on. I'm very happy to see that experience bears this...
...about that game I was discussing over at Howard Whitehouse's Astounding Tales site. I used a variant of your coin-buy system, and thought you might like to...
Ahoy! I have a couple of printed copies of Politics By Other Means, but I'd like to have a .doc file which I can savely archive and preserve for eternity,...
Should anyone be curious (or bored enough) to know how that played out, here's a transcript. We had the battle at work, so it was slow going -- and it remains ...
Zombies and Plasma Cannons and scarecrows oh my! Good luck with the game! On Sat, Jul 18, 2009 at 10:24 AM, Andrew Dr Rotwang! Reyes ... -- Hamster Press =...
I was thinking the matrix game would be good for an idea I had, but I want some input. The idea is to retell the story of Dune by Frank Herbert. The initial...
Depending when it ran, I may or may not have time to participate, but as a Dune fan, I'd be interested. I think that Dune gives you a pretty set up. It's clear...
Yes, if you were championing Baron Harkonnen, then you would be automatically championing his faction, but things aren't as clear if you were championing Paul....
I think that a Matrix Game would work very well for this scenario. Please feel free to use any rules on my web page (or any part of them you find useful). ...
I was planing on running it at www.rpol.net. One idea I had was that when people made arguments, they would have to provide reasons that were derived from the...
Okay I looked at rpol.net and I think you could run a game there easily. I've not done one on a forum but it should work even better than email because you...
Gen Con was a little slow this year but we did okay with the games. There were a good number of Matrix Games run and everyone seemed to enjoy them. That said...
I'm eager to try a game. I'm still nervous about running that Dune game I was thinking about, maybe playing in a matrix game first will help me wet my feet. If...
 Chris have you thought about asking for players on The Miniature Page????    Jonathan  Gen Con was a little slow this year but we did okay with the...
I've never posted for players on the miniatures page. Maybe I should this time - once we decide what to do. Sounds like Daniel might benefit the most from a...
I don't know the Cthulhu setting but it sounds like a good game in any case, I'm interested in joining. When I was trying to make the Dune game, I thought I...

 Chris I would like to play Billy-Bob Skaggs !!! I always wanted to play a Moonshinner !!!!  Jonathan  SALEM’S CREEK, INDIANA 1922 Four years ago Honest...
Can I be Doc Markwell please? I'm not quite sure I understand how the Horror and Actions charts work. The action matrix helps out a lot though. I was going to...
Chris, Call me a "lurker at the threshold" as it's been a long while since I last posted, but the fact is that I lay not dead but sleeping, and rise again now ...
Everyone - you have the roles you've asked for! Let's give it a couple of days to see if anyone else joins us. I'll put a notice up on the Miniatures Page....
