Taimana Choryu
Taimana Choryu, or Slow Tide Harbour, is a busy port on the Bay of the Golden Sun, further north along the shore from the great capital city of Otosan Uchi. It does – by anyone’s estimation – a brisk amount…

The road through Dry Path Village
The Emerald Magistrate had a few tasks for his new Yoriki, that would take them eastwards towards the coastal settlement of Slow Tide Harbor. First they must meet with his dear friend, Doji Hiroka and hear a problem that they…
Wartales: Life is like a hurricane, here in Gosenberg
I picked up Wartales on Steam a week or so ago and have thoroughly enjoyed it. At it’s heart it’s a turn-based isometric-grid team-battle, but considerably different from XCOM which didn’t invent the concept but did it really well and…
The Verdict is In

After The Topaz Championship
We just got done playing through the Starter Box set for Legend of the Five Rings. I love the idea of Starter Boxes; the Numenera box really helped sell that game for me. The Star Trek starter box helped make…
Space to fill
We did a bit of galaxy-building for The Stars Are Fire in preparation for our Sunday night games finally getting offline. Fuck all this technology, let’s play some sci-fi! We’re using their Revel setting, a near-future… well 300 years in…
