This is a collection of various published, and unpublished articles and stuff for games of various sorts. It's not a full list of everything I've written - if you are really interested you should check out my cv for that.

Roleplaying Games

• Circles is a complete roleplaying system. I don't expect anyone else to like it, but it works for me. As for background, that's a different story.

Roleplaying Articles

• Bit Parts - in which I give away a couple of the tricks that I use to save me thinking too hard when I run a game.
• Bit Parts - the version of the above article that I first submitted to arcane - twice as wordy. They wisely asked me to shorten it.
• Brainwashing - a rant on GM screens.
• Roleplaying for the Masses - a suggestion for where the future of roleplaying might take us. Noteably, it hasn't yet.
• "Is it like D&D?" - I've noticed, with some irony, that roleplayers are often very conservative. This is when it hit me.
• Losing Sanity - an essay which I am told generated much debate in The Unspeakable Oath. Not that I have been able to tell as the following issue has yet to be published.
• "What's Runequest?" - in which I am rude about Runequest, and as this was published in the Convulsion booklet, it made me the most hated person at the convention. (Convulsion is primarily a Runequest convention.)

Roleplaying Scenarios

• Fear of Falling - a really nasty thing to do to Call of Cthulhu players. (Hell, you could do it to anyone.)
• Devil's Pool - a short encounter for Pagan Publishing's Golden Dawn supplement.
• Kastajhan's Carpet - a whole bunch of generic scenario ideas.
• An Incident at Two Bridge Junction - technically, this is a freeform and lives in my freeform section.
• Tales of Terror - more scenario ideas for Call of Cthulhu than you can shake a stick at.
• Water Source (short 2300AD scenario)

Card Games

• INWO Resources - bits and bobs.
• Non-Isolationist INWO - why INWO promotes isolationist play, and what to do about it.
• Spread the Word - teaching INWO to new players.
• Variants - various ways to play INWO, collected from the mailing list.

Computer Games

• Tang's Resolve is a set of skirmishes for X-Wing Alliance.
• Trainspotter - a sneek preview.
• Many years ago I wrote the novella for the computer game Xenomorph. Here's a site dedicated to Xenomorph.

Reviews

• Tales of the Miskatonic Valley - scenarios for Call of Cthulhu, written for a magazine that immediately folded. Hmmm.
• Sacraments of Evil - scenarios for Call of Cthulhu. I have no idea why I wrote this.
