My Idea Debt: The Six-Gun Seven

Steve Johnson9 years ago3 years ago01 mins

I’ve been a fan of the weird west genre since I watched The Adventures of Brisco County Jr. in high school, and at least half of the (admittedly few) Boot Hill games I’ve run have featured something supernatural, or at least seemingly supernatural.

My Idea Debt: Groovin’ Zed

Steve Johnson9 years ago2 years ago02 mins

The next chunk of idea debt in my Binders of Lore is technically titled The Groovin’ Zed and the Roller Kings Intergalactic Tour Guide or some such nonsense, but I’m going to stick with “Groovin’ Zed” because I don’t have all day. To properly appreciate Groovin’ Zed, you have to understand that Leighton Connor and…

Cinemechanix Design Journal: Guardians of Aetheria PCs

Steve Johnson9 years ago3 years ago01 mins

With the new rules changes, I had to change a few things around with character creation, so while I was at it I rearranged, renamed, and simplified character creation. Since I also had to rewrite the Sample of Play Theater entry for character creation, I went ahead and upgraded the characters for the Guardians of…

Cinemechanix Design Journal: Areas Where QAGS Needs Improvement

Steve Johnson10 years ago3 years ago01 mins

You’ve probably already figured out that I took a break from blogging last week because of the holidays. I was tempted to use the same excuse this week, but decided to start the new year off on the right foot and finally get around to the Cinemechanix posts I hinted at a few months ago…

Omarian Magic Rules

Steve Johnson10 years ago3 years ago02 mins

Last week I posted a map and some basic information about the setting for the terrible fantasy novel I’m writing for National Novel Writing Month, The Quest For the Lord of the Dragonsword Throne. Since one of the characters is a wizardess, I’ve had to come up with some basic information about how magic works…

And Now For Something Completely Different

Steve Johnson10 years ago2 years ago013 mins

In a few recent posts, I’ve made references to a super secret project I’ve been working on. Today I’m going to tell you about that project. First, here’s a brief history of QAGS for those of you who aren’t familiar: sometime in the late 90s, I wanted to come up with a quick system that…
