Just finished off Ian McDonald's "Luna" trilogy and just started in to Martha Wells' "Witch King". Both great reads

Yeah, I blanked that too 🤣

Didnt know Bluesky did algorithms 😱

I actually liked thac0, but as an engineer I can do mental maths

Grrr Martin beats all that 🤣😂

Thank you... You have been an inspiration for me, so thank you for that too.

I have a manuscript needing its first edit, but instead I've done a short story, a game scenario and a resource pack. And I'm semi retired, so cant complain about lack of time!

The engineer in me screams for the clinical lines of dwarven stonework, but my heart craves curlicues and leaves!

Sounds like the film Red Sun with Toshiro Mifune

There is that new one: "United Nations Security Council".
One player is "The Aggressor", the other players discuss how to best resolve the problem.
Afterwards, there is a vote, which "The Aggressor" can then veto.
Half hour fun for all the family.

I've started this new crew as refugees with nothing to their names, building up a rep and slowly gaining experience with new actions and stealing what equipment I have the bad guys show them.

I shall be starting the year with a plot twist from one of the player's background disadvantages mwah hahah

Bizarrely, that link takes me to one of my own products on DriveThruRPG 😂🤣. Merry Xmas, though
