Kickstarter announcement – Golden Scroll of Justice
And the big announcement concerning the Kickstarter for The Golden Scroll of Justice, my upcoming mythic China/Wuxia sourcebook for old-school RPGs is… There will be no Kickstarter.

Designer’s corner: wuxia rules
I’ve got a long way to go before it’s done, but I’ve recently had a spurt of inspiration and energy for my wuxia/Chinese folklore supplement for old-school gaming, and I thought I’d post some of my thoughts on how it’s going to be organized, and what sort of stuff will likely find its way intoContinue reading “Designer’s corner: wuxia rules”
