DC is Dead. Long Live Horror Role Playing

Sunday, May 30th, 2010

Negotiations have stalled on the publishers (Kinstaff Media, er, me) supporting Dark Conspiracy with commercial products, including any new and improved release of a 3rd edition. The editorial in Issue #4 was optimistic and a bit premature. I apologize for dashing any expectations.

If you are interested in investigative horror, I recommend the Esoterrorists. For hopeless, “we’re all gonna die” horror, there’s Fear Itself. For a retro-rules-heavy “shoot the crap out of ‘em” system, I recommend Blood!

Cheers!

Issue 4 went live a week ago!

Live! Issue 4 – Spring 2010

 

Yep. It was a day or two late, but issue 4 went up a week ago! So far, a couple hundred downloads.
And I would like to clarify the pseudo-announcement made in the editorial for that issue. The editors of Protodimension Magazine have reached an agreement in principle to produce commercial materials supporting Dark Conspiracy 1st and 2nd editions.

Look for small-sized support materials on DriveThruRPG/RPGNow under the 3Hombres Games label. No, there is nothing there yet, we still need a signature or two before that happens.

So, as with Protodimension Magazine:  any requests? (we’re not kidding. If you have one, send it along to me, starman at the address listed on the About page.

Cheers!

Corrections and clarifications

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

Oops!

In our rush to get it into your hands, shortcuts were taken.  I have spelled a contributor’s name incorrectly. No excuse!

Dave Schuey’s neat little picture of his AS-500 on page 72 was labelled as “Dave Shuey”. My bad. This has been corrected and future downloads of Protodimension Magazine will have the correct attribution.  I hope Dave will forgive me and that future contributors are not offended.

Cheers!

The Fright or Flight Instinct

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

Whoa!

Ok. Nothing for a month and then two posts, bam, bam. What gives?

Well this is cool!

Lester Smith (were not worthy, we’re not worthy :) ) has unearthed a treasure for Dark Conspiracy fans.  A convention adventure originally designed a while back that demonstrates the Dark Conspiracy setting’s depth is posted and living on Lester’s blog. Check it out. Check out his blog anyway, the guy’s got facets, I’m telling you. Fright or Flight is statless and appropriate for most any dark conspiracy horror genre.

Oh, yeah. That would be here: http://lestersmith.com/2010/01/20/the-fright-or-flight-instinct-redux/

Cheers!
