Notebook

This is my game-design oriented weblog for news, announcements, thoughts on my projects and about roleplaying in general. Somewhat informal in style.

The management accepts no responsibility for its own opinions but will discuss them if forced to.

TAIGA

Nasty roleplaying game of a bleak future torn between totalitarianism and anarchy. Set in Central Asia of 2039.

Characters are wasteland bandits trying to survive by raiding government transports and agricultural settlements. Some dream of a better future or a revolt against the ruling government but most are just counting the days by the number of rounds left in their gun.

The European version is available from Fantasiapelit Ltd and the North American version from Renaissance Ink.

Character sheet now available as a PDF.


Downloadable PDF-game of the golden days of the American Gangster. Found your own mob and build an empire of crime in the spirit of Al Capone or Lucky Luciano!

The PDF-layout is arranged so that all you need to do is to print it out, two pages per paper, stack them and put staples through the middle. When you fold it, you'll have a neat A5-sized booklet.

Click and download. Fun, easy and free!
