November 10, 2024 I had built two Airship props and had no game to use it in. Actually I did use one in Titans Grave before it got rebuilt but I really wanted to use them both in one adventure. Along comes Battle For Oz! I decided last minute – like a month out –…

Voyage of the Doomed (Mythic Con 2024)
System: Savage Worlds Date: November 8, 2024 The second time I ran this at a con, and it was a little tough. It’s a very difficult game to run and if the players are not prepared, they won’t have a good time. I lost a player this time because they were too tired. It breaks…
Savage 80s: V – The Rescue (Mythic Con West 2024)
March 2, 2024 The final game was Savage Saturday Night – my Savage 80s game. I have taken all the great 80s shows and brought them into a setting based on the classic 80 mini-series – V and V-the Final Battle (with a little influence from V-the Series). Shows like The A-Team, Knight Rider, MacGuyver,…
Voyage of the Doomed (Mythic Con West 2024)
System: Savage Worlds Date: March 2, 2024 The big one – Savage Bloodshadows, The Voyage of the Doomed. I considered this the big one because I used my tramp steamer terrain, which everyone was impressed with. I was too busy running the game to take pictures, however. This was based on an adventure written in…
The Rogue Planet (Mythic Con West 2024)
March 1, 2024 My first game was Friday night, Savage Star Frontiers – a version of Star Frontiers that I put together with a little influence from other games – Alternity Star*Drive primarily. I wanted to modernize the game but also preserve some of it’s quirkiness. The adventure – The Rogue Planet – was designed…
Long Road to Tomorrow (Mythic Con West 2023)
March 12, 2023 This went really well. I think there were some players that were just too tired to be challenged by my plot, while others did not have the experience in the genre enough but it still went well. Met some great people, great gamers and had a lot of fun.
Project Tor 3: Battle of Terror (JeffCon 2022)
Savage Reich Star Date: November 12, 2022 One final adventure with a group of people that played in this campaign before. I love that this campaign grew into something that had a following. And I am glad I have the opportunity to publish this setting as well (in the works). I did not take many…
Project Tor 3: Battle of Terror (RonCon Fall 2022 Playtest)
Savage Reich Star Date: September 10, 2022 Final adventure of the trilogoes of trilogies. How do you make one small mission group a part of an epic battle? Give them a mission that the battle hinges on. This went very well. Had an aliens feel to it but of course, a lot of my games…
Project Tor 2: Void of Terror (MACE West 2022)
Savage Reich Star Date: March 12, 2022 This ran very well if not a little long. They did not go too far off the planned plot but there was some delays here in there, mostly because I decided to bring some of the playtest into the con game as part of the adventure.
And then everything ended …
I have been struggling to come up with something to write. It has been over a month since he passed but I have no words. As soon as he was gone, I missed him. He was one of my best friends and I hardly saw him more than 2 or 3 times a year. We…
