July 1, 2013: Get On The Right Track!

Drive yourself crazy with the latest Car Wars classic to appear on e23: Dueltrack ! With this supplement you'll get info on gas-powered engines, high-speed racing, metal armor, and more. You can even bring your game forward by looking to the past, with "Chassis & Crossbow" – low-tech autoduelling where riding "shotgun" was really important.



This digital set provides rules, counters, and road sections (including printer-friendly pre-cropped versions); coupled with Car Wars Classic or the Car Wars Compendium , you'll be burning rubber just as soon as you fire up your printer!

July 2, 2013: Harnessing The True Power Of The Atom

Scientists at IBM have created the World's Smallest Movie using a 2-ton tunneling electron microscope and one of the most advanced labs on the planet.



The stop-motion film, A Boy and His Atom, uses animated still photographs of actual atoms to create a short cartoon. You can watch it – and get the rest of the story about it! – at the IBM News Room , or go see it where I found it at Topless Robot (theirs has a Star Trek logo made of atoms).



You've really got to watch it to believe it. You know what? I watched and I still don't believe it.

Warehouse 23 News: Different Places To Go. More Things To Kill.



Start building, blow it up, make defensive positions and send in the cannon fodder!



Ogre: Battlefields is a set of four "geomorphic" maps designed to connect to the G.E.V. and Shockwave maps . . . making it possible to create maps over 2' by 3'!



You get rules and counters for Engineers, Revetments and Militia.



Also included are nine scenarios and variants to let you fight the Last War across these battlefields.



This is not a stand-alone game. You need the G.E.V. rules to play, and some scenarios assume you have Shockwave .

July 3, 2013: Well, Hello There, PaizoCon

I will be attending PaizoCon this weekend, running demo games (including Munchkin Pathfinder !) and maybe even dropping a playtest or two on the table while I'm there. If you're in the Seattle area, I hope to see you there!
