Dis Raw brainstorming
One of my first ideas for Jonathon Walton's "dis". There are certainly some cool aspects about it. I especially like the Minotaur with a raptor on a chain. This is a the raw "artifact" version. If I had liked it enough it would have gone into photoshop and cleaned up and tweaked etc. There are a lot of reasons I don't like this one and I consider it more of a brainstorm. It's pretty messy, I think I completed it late at night just to see what kind of impression it might have with full inking and contrast. I present it here for your amusement. And if you would like to see the completed version I finished check it out here. http://nates-notes.blogspot.com/2016/05/dis.html

Danger Patrol 1944 Moleskin Notes
Basically all my major notes for a Danger Patrol 1944 hack I ran at GPNW2013. Somewhere I have the character sheets I used, which were really just WW2 retrofits of the original John Harper game.
The setup: A secret mission for a rag tag crew of supers (and a couple red-shirts) they need to extricate a certain Dr V. Frankenstein. His family castle has been taken over by the Nazis and is now a defensive stronghold. Get the Dr. out before the Allies airstrike.
Flavor: Castle Wolfenstein meets The Invaders.
SPOILERS: The Dr's Monster, and the 2nd Monster, and the Dr's Nazi Daughter (whom he won't leave behind.)

A roguish game of Roguish
Played a hacky quick-set-up game of roguish with my 5year old and a friend tonight. It was fun. We made up a lot of rules as we went along but it worked out. We made our cards pretty darn fast and added a combat chart.
Rule expansions:
Combat chart.
Sacrifice a treasure to add to dice roles.
Warrior = defeat level 3 monster
Thief = steal level 3 treasure
Magic user = navigate a level 3 magic tile card.
Thief scan roll to detect a secret door to add a tile.
Magic users can roll to teleport (we talked about this after game)
Hope to play again. Would love to spend more time on the cards!
