Well, get going!!

For valor, fairness and truth! THE JOUST!!

 Tourney season is upon thee! Prepare yourself for FULL TILT! a game of jousting and knightly combat.

With the rules for the minigame from an old White Dwarf magazine, cardstock terrain and a heap of paper miniatures from OKUMARTS. We play an afternoon's worth of Jousting Fun!! The Barony of Avondale lies just west of the Duchy of Marqest and it is here we find ourselves embroiled the politics and social combat of the Summer Tournaments.

To Start let's meet the teams:

Team Blue

The Blue team is led by: Syldar Windforge the Honorable (center), Ravanwulf Windsword the Dapper (left), and Fariel Von Castor the Divine (right).

This team represents all that is good and just in the Kingdom. They are accompanied by a champion Bowman by the name of: Finn Voltashard who will participate in the Archery contest after the joust.

This team is run by: Mark E.

Team Red

The Red Team is led by: Vorozz Blackspawn the Defiler (center), Ravinian Necrobane the cursed (left), and Morrez Greyforge the Malicious (right).

This team represents all that is foul and treacherous in the Kingdom. They are accompanied by a champion bowman by the name of: Morran Dreadflame who will test his skill in the Archery contest after the joust.

This team is run by: Mightyeroc

The court of Avondale

The crowd gathers and awaits the first round! The contestants will be Syldar Windforge vs. Ravanian Necrobane. Will honor triumph over treachery? Let's find out. . . 

Round 1!

Tilt round 1

The first tilt goes to Red with 3 lances broken vs. 2 lances from Blue. No one gets unhorsed.

At the far end of the field a group of minstrels sings the praises of the rules of S.A.F.E.T.Y. 

the SAFETY dance

On to round two!

Tilt round 2

In the second round we have Fariel Von Castor vs. Vorozz Blackspawn, and it is a hard fought joust as Red just makes a win with 2 lances broken against 1 from the Blue team.

Round 3!

Tilt round 3

In the final round we have Ravanwulf Windsword vs. Morezz Greyforge. Once again the game is close as Red just barely gets in 3 broken lances against 2 for Blue!

The final points are tallied and we have:

BLUE: 5 lances broken

RED: 8 lances broken

WINNER: Team RED

The crowd jeers at the team Red, but was never the less quite entertained. The most amazing thing was no combatant was unhorsed, showing that all of them are skilled jousters.

The field is cleared and set up for the Archery contest. There will be three rounds total. Round 1 at short range, Round 2 at medium range, and Round 3 at long range. Each archer gets three shots per round, with a hit worth 1 point and a Bullseye worth 2 points.

The targets are ready.

Morran Dreadflame for the RED team and Finn Voltashard for the BLUE team take the field, and the crowd goes silent. 

Red (left), Blue (right)

Round 1 goes to Red with 5 points scored with 2 bullseyes and a hit, while Blue gets 3 points from 3 solid hits. 

Round 2 sees Blue win with 2 points as Red scores only 1, but Red still leads with points.

As the bowman ready themselves for the final round, the crowd is unsure who will win.

Round 3 starts with Red scoring a hit and Blue getting a bullseye in the first shot. The second shot is missed by both archers and the crowd is squirming!! The third and final shot is a MISS for RED and a second bullseye for BLUE!!!! 

The crowd goes wild and then everyone retires to the Ale tents and feasting tables!!!

Archery Scores total:

BLUE - 9 points

RED - 7 points

WINNER: BLUE Team

More Tournament fun coming soon as the summer progresses. We will be adding Man to Man combat in the next Tourney.

Fare thee well!

White Star: Battles in Space!

 Battle in Space!

Two short space battles were fought to play out the situation between the Galactic Consortium and the Solar Alliance forces as they clash in Quadrant 44.

Players:

Mark E. & Mightyeroc.

Battle 1: GC forces surprise assault on a small moon along the border of the Red Shift Kelron Sector and the Blue Shift Venturi Sector.

A squadron of four Galactic Consortium Patrol cruisers made a swift assault upon a series of detection satellites along the sector border near a small unnamed moon.

The GC were able to disrupt one of three satellites allowing them to drop a ground assault unit to the moon and take the Alliance forces there by surprise. One Alliance cruiser was destroyed, and a single GC cruiser was left a floating hulk.

We used spaceship board game counters for the ships, and the Attack Wing movement templates for maneuvers and weapon ranges. Mix in a little Traveller space combat rules and we were off and running.

Battle 2: Alliance forces attempt to cover the escape of ground forces leaving the outpost after the ground battle was lost. ( See Galacta 25 post ). The GC forces were able to destroy the escaping Solar Alliance transport as well as three Alliance cruisers, though the GC took heavy damage in return.

Alliance cruiser launches missile

This was an adhoc mishmash of games and styles we threw together for fun. It might be further refined, or we might try the next Battle in Space using the Space Combat rules straight from White Star.

Either way it made for a great couple of hours of dice rolling and fun. The outcome of this will roll into the outcome of the Galacta 25 miniature battle and will influence the overall background of the ongoing White Star RPG campaign. ( Players take note! )

THE END. . . .  for now

PSI WORLD: an 80's RPG gets dusted off for play.

 PSI World of EROC!

One possible prelude to the Gamma Mutant Future World of Eroc! This will become a deep RPG dive into my universe.

by Fantasy Games Unlimited

PSI World, where the players choose to belong to one side or the other in a sociological and genetic clash of power. The world is slightly more advanced than present day. Regular shuttles service both orbiting space stations as well as lunar bases. The nearest planets and asteroids have been visited by manned probes. But most important, psionic abilities have begun to appear in the human genome.

Pure Strains (humans without PSI ability) are more and more starting to view PSI's ( Psionic able humans) with fear and suspicion. Good and Bad actors from both sides are maneuvering and vying for political and economic power, as the divide between the two branches of humanity widens.

To start we rolled up a pair of characters today so we can play a short Mini-campaign or two this year.

Character #1: Dane Granger, PSI. (created by Mark E.) Dane is a 21 year old drifter that uses his skill of operating construction vehicles to get work as he moves from place to place. His PSI ability is teleportaion, which he uses to commit various thefts. 

Character #2: Winston Griffith, PSI. (created by Mightyeroc, will be a GM NPC) Winston is a 22 year old technician for SECSYS Corp. This company installs security systems that can detect PSI abilities. Winston uses his position to feed information about these technologies to the PSI underground. He is also adept at creating falsifed ID documents for renegade PSI's escaping persecution or infiltrating Non-PSI areas.

Players will also be creating Pure Strain (non PSI) characters as well. These characters may work with or against the Psionic PC's in game.

Stay tuned for adventure write ups & campaign background coming soon.
