Hi there, folks! I thought I would let you know what is going on. If you haven't checked out the Heraldic Game Design web site lately, but I have done a severe...
Hi everyone! I've started a new Outsider Chronicles thread on the Forge at http://indie-rpgs.com/viewtopic.php?p=169084#169084 if anyone is interested in...
Considering that I neglected to give a heads up last time I posted to the Forge about Outsider, I thought I'd better do so this time. I'm not sure how...

Really only one comment from the last post... ... Hmm. Reminds me a tad of the effects that celestials have on "the Symphony" in In Nomine. There were...

In my last post, I said that the next post I made would be a showdown between two different methods of randomization. While I was working on a comparison...
