The final chapter of Handbook House Kurita is still somewhat stuck, largely due to me losing an evening’s worth of writing earlier this week. Typically I hit CTRL-S every few minutes to save my work as I write but for some reason, I didn’t the other night. When I went to close down, I got …
HBHK writing is in the winding down stage; I would’ve been done the other day except I completely forgot the role playing notes in the Rules Annex. A little shock there when I discovered I still had a bit more to write. But then again, it covers more of the “general life” of a Combine …
[“Black Marble” by NASA Goddard Photo and Video] And we’re back with a look at the ongoing work in Handbook: House Kurita. One of the more popular bits of the Handbook series is the Touring the Realm section, which provides a wide look at various worlds in the interstellar nation. Each author picks the worlds …
The NHL locket is OVER! As I contemplate what exactly this means for me and my hockey viewing/consumption habits, I thought I’d share two emails I got this morning. Obviously, the NHL and its teams have a massive PR mountain to climb in repairing the damage done to their fanbases, so these letters were expected. …
This will be the last update on Handbook: House Kurita for 2012. Principal writing is winding down and during the upcoming holiday week, most of the book will be (hopefully) completed.

Been a few weeks, so I thought I’d share a bit more from the ongoing HBHK project.

The …
This past weekend the BattleTech Line Developer made a visit to my area. While in part a long-overdue vacation, he also came to visit with the idea we would talk about the next several years of game development. So on Friday we roped in our second assistant, Paul, and got down to business. While obviously …
And we’re back with the next installment of HBHK, letting you peek behind the Dragon’s curtain at the mysteries within. Or something like that. Anyway, progress continues forward. I’ve pulled some material for preview; the selections this week are scattered across multiple sections.
Work on HBHK continues apace, though last week was largely interrupted due to my work’s massive annual conference. Since I handle all of their communications…all extraneous writing was suspended for most of the week as I spun the media web. The entire conference was a huge success, however, and I’ll be returning to my work …
The highest ideals to which the subjects of Lord Kurita can aspire are Purity and Harmony. By Purity is meant freedom from all that might come between the citizen and their duty to their Lord and government. [Commentary: Purity does not mean avoidance of bodily functions such as sex. Rather, it refers to using those …
