So I’ve been previewing this book for about a month and finally, it’s here. Well, okay, sort of here. It was released as an e-book late last night; it’s due as a print book soon. (And no, I won’t say when, just that it is.) This book is a big deal. Well, at least, it …
[Osaka]: “Welcome back, I’m Sako Osaka, and this is your 2300 news brief. Earlier this evening, Terri Chow reported on a supposedly leaked report from one of our intelligence services, presumably the O5P. It is the policy of this station and ISNS not to broadcast unsubstantiated and unsolicited information. However, in light of the subject …

NOTE to all US Government cyberpolice – this is about a game, not current events. Thanks for playing! So anyway.

Ok, so in this case the title doesn’t say it all. Actually, it’s just a lead-in to my thoughts that I’ve been gathering over the weekend. I did miss GenCon 2009 this year. First convention in about 10 years I missed and man, it was tough. As the weekend went on (and I watched the …
‘On The Ice’ courtesy of ‘brookeBAMF’ I really, really wanted to do up a preview of the Eastern Conference Finals between the sixth seed Carolina Hurricanes and those pesky upstart fourth-seeded Penguins. Especially since Game 1 opens tonight at the Igloo. Alas, I don’t have the time. I realize many people don’t know the extent …
My freelance boss for CGL is Herb Beas. He’s the Line Developer for the BattleTech license and a great guy. Overworked like no-one else I know, yet he handles it with…well, sarcasm and a wit sharp enough to not just kill sacred cows, but spit them over a raging fire until they’re juicy and medium …
