Brennan Taylor and I sat down at Dreamation 2011 to talk a bit about Swords Without Master, some of the basics of how it works, and some of the challenges I’m facing making it into a thing. All this ended up on Episode 52 of Voice of the Revolution, which has plenty of other material worth listening to.
And speaking of those challenges, over on the forums there’s some chatting going on about how to make sure the folks sitting down for a game of Sw/oM know what they’re getting into. It’s a bit more complex than you might expect. I’d love to hear your two cents worth.*

The auction is over. Congratulations to the winners and thanks again to Chris Roback of We Xogo for putting this all together.
Chris Roback, the gentleman behind We Xogo, was at PAX East this past weekend and took it upon himself to put together an auction to benefit the Child’s Play Charity. And he’s been gracious enough to allow me to include some games.
So if you’ve been waiting for a good excuse to purchase either Time & Temp or Dread House–to indulge yourself while still helping a worthy cause–here is your excuse. Or if you’ve already got the games and you’re
looking to get a copy for a friend, you know what to do (buy these signed ones and give your friend your ratty old copies). Or if you just like helping kids in hospitals and want to make a couple small press game designers look like big shots, here’s your chance. Bid the hell out of these puppies.*
* Puppies not included.

Well PAX East was a roaring success, definitely something I plan to return to many times over. It was an absolute pleasure meeting the lot of you. The times were crazy and the conversations were regretfully short. If we didn’t get a chance to finish our discussion, please feel free to start it up again on my forums over at the RPGCrossroads.
Also, I sold out of almost everything I had. So if you didn’t get to the booth in time, here are some links to get you to the games you were looking for:
Time & Temp:
- Unbound Edition (the print one in the file folder) can be bought here.
- Paperless Office Edition (the PDF version which comes free with the print) can be bought here.
Dread House:

- PDF Edition (which comes free with the print) can be bought here.
