Eye Con

This Easter long weekend (starting tomorrow), I'm heading to EyeCon.

This will be the first hard road-test for the core of my Quincunx System, the single page RPG I designed called Guerrilla Television.

I know that half of my sessions for the convention are already booked up, and that's pretty good for an independent game when the majority of gamers are coming along for D&D.

I'll probably get my regular crowd of players...some folks just enjoy the way I run games. I guess that's one of the reasons I like to run stuff at conventions, it's a tiny bit of my own cult of fame (nothing compared to some of the other stuff I've seen this week, but ego stroking none-the-less).

They're the easiest for most people to wrap their heads around.  But my preferred form of geomorph is based around the hexagon, these tend to produce more organic and interesting shapes. This is true for natural environments, but it's no less true for urban environments. The example set of geomorphs above as a simple two-phase system. One edge type is plain, the other edge type has a road piercing the centre. There could be dozens of combinations and permutations for each of the two phases around the hexagonal edges, but a quick look at the variety of buildings and road shapes shows that there could literally be hundreds of possible options when drawing these map fragments. But you certainly don't need to create hundreds of designs for the system to be effective. Usin

A Guide to Geomorphs (Part 1)

After numerous requests to get back to map tutorials, it's time to start our new series. This time focusing on the concept of geomorphs, modular map fragments that can be mixed and matched. We'll start with a couple of theoretical tutorials before sinking into a few more practical posts. I'm predicting a dozen or so posts in this sequence, but let's see how long it lasts.
