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…

Savage 80s: V – The Rescue (Playtest, RonCon Spring 2024)
February 10, 2024 I cam up with a sequel to my first 80s game, based on one of the novels – The Florida Project. But first they have to rescue the BA Baracus from a moving truck. I like the idea of using the novels for plots for RPG one-shots. Next, maybe I will do…
Voyage of the Doomed (Playtest, RonCon Spring 2024)
System: Savage Worlds I converted an old adventure from the Fires of Marl Masterbook sourcebook, into Savage Worlds. I tweaked a little to take advantage of some of the story elements they chose not to take advantage of (time travel) and trimmed it down for a 4 hour one shot. It went pretty well. It…
Savage 80s Test
If you can’t name at least half these characters, you are probably too young to play Savage 80s.
Converting Voyage of the Doomed (Fires of Marl)
I am converting this adventure to a one-shot for conventions. The characters, for their own reasons, board the tramp steamer Jolly Marie, bound from Galitia to the city of Dela. The boarding and launch takes place at night from the docks in the Esler district. I happened to have a large steamer ship terrain piece…
Missed Dues (Savage Bloodshadows)
I am converting the CoC adventure Missed Dues to Bloodshadows setting using Savage Worlds rules – yes, not only am I converting the system but also the setting. While the feel will still remain mysterious and investigative, there will be some place I can insert the setting to make it different. The Gangster aspect of…

Game Scenarios: Horror of Tontine
I am not entirely sure why I saved this or where I got this but it is a Call of Cthulhu adventure by Julie Hoverson that I liked enough to save. If she wishes me to take this down. From Serendipity’s Circle E-Mag THE TOWN OF TONTINE “All for one and one for all” takes…
Alien Race: The Vrokians
Group Type: Alien Race, Bolter Classification: Non Humanoid A bolter race that is vaguely insectoid, the Vrokians have become a major fixture on the Inner Frontier. Attempting to re-establish itself as a contributor to a society, the Vrokians have made an attempt to make their Inner colonies a civilized part of the frontier. Many consider them the…
Alien Race: The Nogusian
Group Type: Alien Race, Non-Core Classification: Humanoid An alien mammalian race that seems to be a cross between a terrestrial prairie dog and a otter. No one is quite clear what planet is their homeworld as they have been found on multiple world across the near colonies in small communities. They communicate telepathically to their own kind…
