  My newest idea for an IRE is a piece of local news. The dominant force in Twin
Cities Theater, the Guthrie Theater, has moved into a spectacular new space
right on the river in downtown Minneapolis. I see plenty of game possibilities
in a new theater opening......

  It's been too long since I've had time to think of an IRE that isn't
depressingly tied to natural disasters, political disasters or other such
unhappy topics. Fortunately, living in the Great White North has given me
something to work with. Last weekend in Minnesota was the Fishing season opener.
It's a very big deal in the state with over 10,000 lakes, a large economic boost
to the lake dominated northland part of the state. Gas stations, among many
other places, sell fishing licenses. The site of where the Governor of the state
goes fishing on fishing opener weekend is news here, even in the urban Twin
Cities. (And no Governor would dare not go fishing this first weekend). Going
"up to the lake" is a tradition among Minnesotans during this first weekend of
the fishing season, which runs until the winter. So, let's go fishing for this

  Back by popular demand is the game meme IRE--Inspired by Recent Events. I take
an event which has happened recently, and we, that is to say, myself and anyone
who wants to play, spins a RPG scenario based on it. The previous IREs are
available to be read here. This time out, I am going to eschew all the bad news
that has hit the world lately, and go for something positive--Eid Al Adha, the
beginning of the Muslim Hajj. The Muslim Hajj is the pilgrimage to Mecca that
every faithful Muslim is asked to make at least one in his or her life. The
pilgrimages traditionally begin at this time every year. So, what shall I do
with this in an RPG sense?...

  With many choices for our 23rd Game IRE, I decided to go with something right
and hot off the presses: IRA orders disarmament. I am going to resist the
obvious Amber idea involving Dalt (and leave it for the likes of Ginger or Arref
to do) and instead use a Chaos themed Amber game based on the premise: What
happens at the *end* of a Vendetta. Lots of the political maneuverings and the
meat of a story takes place in the run up to a feud between two Houses, but how
does such a feud end? If its not...

  Lord, has it been several weeks since my last IRE? Time to change that, then!
Today marks the 340th anniversary of the reincorporation of New Amsterdam by the
English into the colony of New York. Its an important and momentous occasion, a
turning point not only in the development of New York, but America in general.
((L.E. Modesitt Jr. Ghost books, as a divergence, have a Dutch-dominated New
York and New England surviving British attempts at incorporation). So, the
handover of a valuable colony or country between rivals...and the people in the
colony caught in the crossfire......

  After an unexpected and unanticipated hiatus, IRE returns this week! Trying to
avoid the pitfalls of too many things political, this time we are going to take
a look at something a little different: E3, the Electronics Exposition is
currently the hot thing in the West. I'd think that we could extend this idea to
things like fairs, world fairs and expositions and the like, if you didn't want
to stay in the technological milieu....

  Some of the most exciting news today has nothing to do with Presidential News
Conferences or the price of oil or anything like that. No, the news that the
extinct Ivory Billed Woodpecker may not be quite as extinct as one might think.
And so our twentieth Game IRE is set: The rediscovery of a thought-lost creature
and its impact on the PCs and their world. Monte Cook provides an answer in his
Arcana Evolved follow up to Arcana Unearthed, where he has Dragons return to the

  After the difficulty of last week's IRE involving the passing of the pope, I
felt it was only fair to go for a theme that is relatively simple and direct.
April 15th, in America, is "Tax Day", the last day once can file their income
taxes for last year. The Taxman cometh...and what are your characters going to
