I am happy to invite you to Neoncon 2008; Las Vegas' biggest and best gaming convention. Across the board, Neoncon 2007 attendees had good things to say; some...
Howdy. Anybody have a good source online for nonsensical asian- philosophical sounding phrases? I am using the following NPC in my current game, and must...

... I have a preference for quotes from "The Sphinx" in Mystery Men: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0132347/quotes They're offbeat and great. Especially if you...
Thanks much! The Mystery Men quotes are especially good....with 'The Sphinx' having just the tone I was looking for! The Confuscious sources are alright,...

Hey..just thought I'd pass along a link to my new Risus blog: Risus Thought of the Moment (or Risus TOTM). I make no guarantees, but I'm having fun with it...
Its been a Long time, but... Guy, I would be interested to hear how your Heroic Greek game went... did you ever run it? Did you ever put together much material...
Jon, I still haven't run it yet (waiting for a suitable gap in our long-running RuneQuest campaign), but I'd be happy to make available the material I have. I...
Thanks for the response... I am full of questions: Were you going to use the "real" geography of ancient greece (and if so which period or cinematic trope were...
The peplums play fast and loose with history and geography, so I'm not terribly concerned with producing historical maps. My current plan is to use maps from...
I never saw the Xena and Hercules game... and Mythic greece? was that the Palladium book? or Gurps? Damn! I'm lacking in my cupboard of useful source material!...
Were you thinking of a one-off game, episodic, or a ongoing campaign? I always find it fascinating the way some genres/settings/tropes lend themselves to a...
Looking to restart my Risus Dungeoneers campaign, as a SERIOUS dungeon crawl. I plan on using the classic modules as 'Inspiration'. We are using play by post...
"Mythic Greece", by Aaron Allston, was a sourcebook for Iron Crown's Rolemaster/MERPS systems and Hero Games' Fantasy Hero. There are Greek supplements for...
Think of each "adventure" as a movie. It might take more than one night to play out, but it's mostly self-contained. A series of "movies" can be sequels to the...
As a player form the first game I recommend it. I'll be back as will one of teh other players for sure. If we could get 1 or 2 more players I think it would...
Yeah, most games I have run in the last few years have tended to be either 1-offs or more episodic in structure... I think it is that I allow cinema and TV...
Pardon the probably silly question, but is there some place I could take a look at a few game narratives? I'm still wrapping my head around some of this RPG...

Magicians, priests, and philosophers in my Mighty Sons of Risus! setting. It's not finished, but I'd love any constructive comments. In the files section under...

I've just added a couple of files to my "Mighty Sons of Risus!" folder. My map of the "known world" is centered on Greece, but is intentionally vague about the...
Whoops, forgot to mention the other one, an mp3 of the theme song of the "Sons of Hercules" TV show. This was a show in the 1960s that featured Italian sword...
... So are you new to Tabletop RPG's, or just new to Risus? I'm wondering how appropriate Risus is for someone new to RPG's. I can imagine using Risus with...
