But Why?
Although recently I've been using some commercial game systems (GURPS, Hero) I have a tendency to prefer to create my own game systems. This can be considered a bit weird or odd by some folks, and even put others off, since it means having to learn a new system to game with me.
The thing is, I've played a lot of systems, GMed and read a lot more. Generally I find that most game systems have in recent years been heavily design by committee, or are the work of one person a... Read More

Game Design: Episode III: Attack of the Tanks
At the end of the last chapter of my game design story, my starship game had been temporarily forgotten because of some neat new toys... They were these cool little die cast metal tanks with rotating turrets, and they were the perfect size to use with a Battletech map. The only problem was a lack of a game to use these new toys with. But my tank toy owning friend and I were hotshot kid designers! We'd whip something up and start playing in no time. Yeah, right. At first we star... Read More
