EPT Rules without the Petal Throne...

I have been slaving away the last couple of days on a player's handbook for 1975 rules for Empire of the Petal Throne without the references to EPT. Basically just a new clone using those rules for gaming. I hope to complete this document this week and put it up for download. I really like the way characters are generated and handled in this version of the game (especially the skills/spells generation for priests and magic-users). I also dig the damage dice used by fighting men in combat (and to a lesser extent priests & magic-users).

Not sure if anyone will find it useful, but it has been fun putting it together.

Updated version of the Modern Firearms rules.

I have just uploaded a cleaned up version of my Modern Firearms rules that I converted from the old Dragon article and intended to use for my RESISTANCE setting. It can be downloaded here, and in the sidebar area.

The Healer Class, again...

I found my old S&W White Box version of the Healer class and have updated it and made it available again for download. It can be found here as well as the download section of my sidebar.

Uploaded old S&W WB: Balrog class.

After my old web space was deleted and my new one was hacked, some of my old files were lost in the shuffle. I recently found my Balrog character class document for Swords & Wizardry white box and have updated it a bit and made it available again for download here and in the download section of my sidebar.

I plan to update all of my older documents eventually to make them look better (I was using Oopen Office to make my pdf's but have since purchased Adobe InDesign which is a much better way to work - and I think they look pretty spiffy. Besides it gives me something to edit and play around with.)

I am still looking for some of my files as I am sure some of them are missing. If you have one that is not in the download section, shoot me an email (should be available in my profile - or drop me a comment on this post).

Returning home...

I think I have sorted out my gmail / blogger issues and hope to start posting again regularly on this my original blog. Now I just need to start working on some game content to post, now that regular life has settled down for me.

A new blog home for me...

I am moving my blog over to a new one (thanks to new email and mistakes on my part). So please check out my new blog (and new project) at:

Swords of Abandon

I will also move my downloads over to the new site in the coming days too. Eventually this site will be shut down.

Thanks.

Sorry for lack of posts...

I have been busy finalizing divorce and getting personal affairs in order. I hope to resume posting in a month of so - once things have settled down. Things are looking up here, getting back out after 16 years of marriage. No worries, life is getting better. Wife leaving me may have been the best thing for me.
