Pledging to the Mountain Witch and like... yeah, I can afford one extra dollar.

I have basically put RPG-making on hold the last few months (hence no posting on here and being very behind on notifications - apologies if I missed anything important) but maybe I'll do a catchup #AprilTTRPGMaker towards the end of the month.

That way I can cherry-pick the questions I think are most interesting, too ;)

Anyone know of a good supplier of mech miniatures? I'm finding the Battletech ones distinctly uninspiring.

In hindsight, symbolically wearing my Apocalypse World t-shirt as 2017 rolled in was maybe asking for trouble. Sorry everyone!

This year I'll be wearing my Steven Universe t-shirt instead. Be the Universe you want to see etc.

At work someone asked what everyone's favourite song was - obvs that's impossible, so I just listed ten good songs (explicitly not a top ten tho). Here they are:

Camera Obscura - French Navy
Talking Heads - And She Was
Freezepop - Stakeout
Manic Street Preachers - Motorcycle Emptiness
The Magnetic Fields - 100,000 Fireflies
The Dresden Dolls - Delilah
Iron & Wine - The Trapeze Swinger
Allo Darlin' - Tallulah
The Mountain Goats - You Were Cool
Deerful - Subjects of Our Love

So I'm really enjoying the new Battletech game by Harebrained Schemes, and I'm sad they're getting flak for simply including a "they" pronoun in the character options. I'm sure they'd appreciate some support, if you're so inclined. (For example, buy the game - it's a lot of fun! Or if you have it, leave a positive review on Steam to counterbalance some of the brigading from petty people who want to see it fail.)

Happy Valentine's Day! This is probably a good day to re-plug my silly letter-writing RPG provisionally called Love Letters :)

It's a two-player game where you write letters to each other to work out if you're in Love with each other or not. Obviously you can't just ask, though — that would be unthinkable.

It's very much a work in progress and I need to make some more updates following the first playtest (thanks +Becky Annison!) but if you're interested, see the draft here: http://nick.idealworld.org/loveletters/

I'd just like you to know that the character I'm playing in my current roleplaying game is called Jack Spaceman - pronounced like Goldman or Silverman, not like "space man".

Every page is just "All work and no play makes James a dull boy" repeated over and over :/

(Sorry James, I couldn't resist :) Actually very excited to have this in my hands!)
