Meanwhile we must meet soon at our usual greasy diner in Joisey and eat in the true style of Spade and Marlowe -- H


Shouldn't you eat in the true style of a certain orchid-growing gentleman instead?   :wink:

Fantastic Worlds sounds like just what I've been looking for!

Will the pirates supplement need Gloire to be played or will it be on its own?

You'll need Gloire for Under the Black Flag as it will not contain the main rules.

This topic reminded me of these calendars, full of evocative Pulp ci-fi covers... Oh, those stories...

Yes! Go, get Gloire! You won't regret it (at least I don't think so).

I won't regret it if you buy Gloire....  :mrgreen:

Even if you just want to play pirates, it'll be like getting a swashbuckling game for free.

After the release of Super Science Tales, I'll also begin work for an early 2008 release of Broadsword Adventures: Savage Tales of Fantasy. Forget all those Tolkien clone games, we get back to some serious Conan-style excitement!.


2008!! D@&^!!  now i know what my wife meant when she said she disliked odd numbered years!!  i will wait (less than) patiently for the release  :cry:

Well, with each release we have more to build with. You can expect some drawings and more photos as well. I will definitely be adding lots of examples as well.

In fact, Jerry Frazee has just done some interior illustrations for this book. Here is my favorite of the new batch he just sent.

Action will take place at a dockside, in the streets of the city, in Chinatown, in a Buddhist temple, a warehouse, at a boxing match, and the secret lair of the Jade Hood. Those are the only specific places that you may want to look at.

But scenery can be altered to suit what you have. Don't go to crazy building and maybe plan some terrain that has alternate uses.

P.S. Did you get my PM?
