Revamp

 


 

With the new symbols, and some slight modifications to how the system operates, I've needed to change the layout of the graphic that describes the games mechanisms. However, one of the main reasons for this was the fact that I could only find the flattened version , and couldn't modify it... so it was easier to start again.

Another issue here is that I wanted to fit this SRD into a 16 page zine format. I'd tightly managed to fit everything that I thought I needed for the document, but that tight fit meant that a lot of the layout was problematic. I'd rather give the words a bit of room to breath, and throw a few more images into the mix. I'm still planning to do a "printer-friendly"/"image-free" version of the SRD, but we'll get to that once I'm happy with this version.

More updates to come.

A Guide to Geomorphs (Part 7)

A working computer and scanner...that means it is time to get back to work on the geomorph sequence. A lot of the discussion in this set of tutorials has been focused around square geomorphs. 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.
