Chronomega Kickstarter Launched!

w00t! The Kickstarter for our upcoming sci-fi 2001 Space Odyssey-style board game (with just a touch of Starship Troopers), Chronomega, just launched!

 The year is 2137. The crew and equipment of the V.O.R.P.A.L. (Voyaging Outer Research Project - Advanced Launch) Time-Space Research Station, Chronomega One, have been emergency-ejected into outer space! You play one of the surviving scientists who must collect pieces of floating research tech and combine them into Electromagnetic-, Gravity-, and Time-bending tools to help bring Chronomega One back under control. You have no idea which member of the crew is responsible for the emergency protocol lock-down and crew ejection, so you can’t trust any of them! For 2-6 players.

Ghost in the Shell Review

On this episode of the Vorpal Podcast the dillettante, the dancer, and the dungeon master hack back into the matrix to see what the newest live-action cyberpunk movie, Ghost in the Shell, can teach us about humanity. Turns out: not much. But there is an assassin droid in a Scarjo body if that trips your trigger.

GaryCon IX - Starship Troopers

Its been a week since Garycon and I'm just starting to feel like a human again. When the Con Crud hits, it hits hard. But its good to remember that its always worth it!

This year at GaryCon the Vorpal Chainsword represented, except I ran something a little different than I usually do at Cons. Instead of running a modern or AD&D role playing game about He-Man or Back to the Future, I hosted and refereed a couple of the out-of-print Starship Troopers miniature battles under the banner of the Dead Games Society as a change of pace.
