Grimme Hack Back On Track!

 I spent most of summer and fall of 2024 working on a fantasy RPG called Grimme Hack. Then in November I got inspired to do Villain Mission Force  and I had to see it to its end. Now that VMF has been out a few months, I have had time to rest and recharge. 

Now it's back to Grimme Hack! 

Check out Todd S. Tuttle's amazing logo for the book: 


This is the b&w version cropped from the character sheet. 

Along with the logo being done, I also have an amazing cover, but I will wait to show that off for another post. 

In the meantime, Grimme Hack uses Luck points, and characters will begin each game with 1 - 3 of them. While visiting Game Masters, an amazing game shop in the North Hills area of Pittsburgh, I found these awesome, locally produced tokens and had to grab them for use in GH and other games: 




They had many colors, but these two were my favorites. 

So expect to hear a lot more about GH moving forward on this blog, and on my Blue Sky account. You can follow me on that platform here. If you have questions about GH, as here or anywhere else you can find me online. 

Thanks for reading!

The Return of SuperFigs?

Image
 Well, maybe. The last year or so I have been quietly working with a talented digital sculptor who approached me about redesigning the SuperFigs line as STL files. It's been 24 years since the release of the first SuperFigs, and I just can't believe it.  So he has been slowly beavering away at figures who strike his fancy. And I am content to let the process play out and see where it goes. There's no deadline. No release date. No pressure.  But Eric did send me some test prints last month, and I finally got around to painting them up. Last year I had also gotten a batch and painted them, and I might have shared them on my FB group, but I don't remember. Anyway, these two are very nice and I am happy to show them off here now.  We have Zoya and Tenpin, along with some rebased Heroclix for scale.  Painted with a combo of Speed Paint and Fanatic paints. I really love the detail Eric achieves, and the posing is lovely.  Zoya is meant to be about 7' tall, so yo...

Villain Mission Force Unleashed!

Image
Villain Mission Force: Solo / Co-Op Anti-Heroic Skirmish RPG  is now available in PDF! Get it here ! Here's the key info:  From nobody to nemesis?  Villain Mission Force (VMF) allows players to run a small team of low-level supervillains through a gauntlet of challenges that will make or break their villainous reps. Utilizing easy 2D6 mechanics, VMF’s multiple play modes include solo, co-op, PvP, or RPG. VMF offers rules for character origins and backgrounds, a versatile power system for varied character design, and a campaign system that will carry them from third-stringers to major threats. VMF also provides dozens of write-ups for foes that you can run using flexible, archetype-based mechanics. All you need to play are some figures from any manufacturer, a tape measure marked in inches, a handful of six-sided dice, around ten numbered chits or cards, and a suitable play area. Are you ready to build your team and join the infamous ranks of the VMF? Villainy awaits! Ch...

Yeah, I make a lot of super games...

     Artwork by Jan Annarella.  I make a lot of super games because I love the genre and I love tinkering with different mechanics and dice systems.  I figure that if you also like super games, one of my rule sets might be for you! That's why a couple of years ago I published the FCS Guide to Super Gaming . It's a list of all of the currently available supers games I make, along with brief write-ups and complexity ratings about them.  I've just updated it to include the imminently available VMF game, but I also wanted to share the text here because I think these sorts of "insider" tidbits might prove interesting to folks who like my games.  I'll also include the entry for SSG that comes right before it in the document for context and comparison:  Super Skirmish Gaming Core System: 3D6 (roll-over) Complexity: 6 of 10 Published in 2022, Super Skirmish Gaming (SSG) synthesizes years of superhero gaming experience into one slick book that offers easy ...
