  • Dear diary, Please accept my most sincere and humble apologies for not caressing your beauteous pages with my fine script in these last few days.  I am sure you will understand why once i have recounted my most recent adventures.  At the moment, I am huddled next to the forward bulkhead of a small french…

  • The characters now spent considerable time discussing their next move. Much of this time was spent discussing what to do with the laboratory. Should they destroy it, or use it to research a cure for the plague, or steal it and  have a genocide-plague-inducing machine of their very own? Decisions were not made, but it…

  • We last left our characters hidden in the forest, looking upon a small stone building whose door was guarded by two Myrmidons.

  • The Warhammer  Fantasy Role-playing campaign in which I am “particpating” (in the sense that I turn up, and fail to achieve anything for 3 hours in a row) was meant to come to its messy and incompetent conclusion on Wednesday, probably with me being eaten by crazed mutant ratmen.
