Dudley Bug Ball

Spent an enjoyable Saturday at the Dudley Bug Ball, playing games such as Car Wars, where I crashed and burned early on thanks to Harvey Mills (A point-blank hit from a rocket and a t-bone collision; that's just not fair!), Chez Geek, where you win by drinking beer and sleeping, and Hero Wars.

Sadly neither the journey to Birmingham nor the return featured any of the surviving Virgin Cross-Country class 47s. Outward journey was a shiny new Voyager, and the return was diverted West Coast 87, which took us through Bescot.

Additional piece of trivia. Yesterday was St Pancras Day, not officially the patron saint of class 45/1s.

How to write a best selling fantasy novel.

It's easy! Just don't say 'and the venerable wizard raised the orb and muttered the Arnic words "Hastalavista".' (via)

Not just for boring computer systems.

Written by John Kirk, Design Patterns of Successful Roleplaying Games is a free .pdf download. Railway modelling has had stuff like this from the likes of Iain Rice and Cyril Freezer for years.

Klingon Fairy Tales

Thanks to **Dave for the link to Klingon Fairy Tales. An example:

"The Hare Foolishly Lowers His Guard and Is Devastated by the Tortoise, Whose Prowess in Battle Attracts Many Desirable Mates"

Doggone!

Carl Cravens is disillusioned with the current flavour of the month RPG.
