A Requiem for Runcible: Order within Chaos version
Chapter 8: A Requiem for Runcible landed on a Friday the 13th in October for me, so I decided to make it a little more creepy. It was an interesting challenge to take some that is light heartedly creepy and make it more serious and horror based. A few things I took into consideration about Arnon…
Managing Gaming at a Convention, Part 1: Intro
The Return of The X-Files
In 2016, one of my favorite shows of all time returned to TV for a short 6 episode mini-season.

Shatterzone RPG & Miniature Play
After not running Shatterzone for over 20 years, I ran a one shot recently. I openly recognize that my game style has evolved over time. In the past, I ran games out of a college room, using a chalk board for combat maps. It was very abstract. It was what I was comfortable with it….
