'Names in the Black Book' reviewed!

With the approach of Halloween, a young man's fancy turns to horror.

And on that note, I want to call you attention to a review that Jonny Metro of the Midnite Media blog posted of NUELOW Games' Names In The Black Book: Three Nightmarish Mysteries by Robert E. Howard.

If you haven't checked out this collection of classic horror mysteries, there's no time like the present--as the nights get darker and... things start appearing in the shadows.

"Names in the Black Book" can be purchased at DriveThruHorror.com for just $1.75.

October is 'Play a New RPG Month'!

The good folks at the Dice of Doom podcast have declared October to be Play a New RPG Month.

We here at NUELOW Games wholeheartedly support this idea, and I'll be suggesting to my Thursday group that maybe we try mixing things up a big, just for October.

In addition to embracing Play a New RPG Month on a personal level, I'm taking it up one step and offering a Play a New RPG Month discount bundle of ROLF!: The Rollplaying Game products.

You can make ROLF! your new RPG (RPG can stand for "roleplaying game" as easily as "rollplaying game" can it not?)

So, if you haven't tried ROLF!, now's your chance. You can get the basic game plus four of the follow-on releases with one easy purchase... and save 45% off the regular price. Get your Play A New RPG Package now by clicking here!

We're putting the finishing touches on ROLF!: Cap'n Jack on the Isle of Pirate's Doom, a trifle we're releasing tomorrow in celebration of International Talk Like a Pirate Day.

It features game stats for three Captain Jacks, Helen Tavrel (extra pirate geek points if you can identify who she is and why she belongs), pirates (Caribbean, Somali, and Copyright), ninjas, and The Mustache, the mysterious Manchurian Ninja Master who has brought them all to the Isle of Pirate's Doom for battles to the death! There's also new Combat Maneuvers and Spellings.

New ROLF! Combat Scenario now available

The latest supplement for "ROLF!: The Rollplaying Game of Big Dumb Fighters" is epic! Well, epic by ROLF! standards. Click here to get your copy from RPGNow for just $1, or read on to be convinced you want a copy of Supermodel Slapfest!

Six supermodels are trapped in a building with a whiny fashion designer and a hunky handyman... and a murderer out to get them all! Sounds like the teaser summary for a slasher film, but it's actually the subject of the latest supplement for ROLF!: The Rollplaying Game of Big Dumb Fighters.

Dangerously close to being a real adventure (as opposed to the usual stuff where characters meet, characters kick each other into oblivion), this 10-page product features new Combat Maneuvers, new Stuff (both Armor and Weapons), eight pre-generated player characters, as well as the maniac who is trying to kill them. Well, who probably will kill them if the egomaniacal supermodels don't kill each other first.

As an added feature, there's a system for secretly making one of the "victims" the killer--just like in the slasher flicks where there has to be a "Big Reveal"--and no one knows who the murderer is until the time is right.

"ROLF: Supermodel Slapfest" is avaiable for just $1! Get yours today!

'Mr. Sparkles, A Tale of the Asura' by Jeff Grubb

Jeff Grubb, the designer of "Dyvil: First Edition", is presently one of the lead creative talents responsible for breathing life into the world of the Guild Wars MMO for ArenaNet. He has just posted a short story on the GW Blog. Check it out!

And if you haven't already, I invite you to check out Jeff's "Dyvil" game from NUELOW.

Some art created for "Supermodel Slapfest!"

Although it's hit some developmental bumps, the next ROLF! supplement is still in the works.

"Supermodel Slapfest!: A ROLF! Triumph of Style Over Substance" will be hitting the web Tuesday or Wednesday... although this slide in the schedule may mean that "ROLF AT SEA!" may be not out in time for International Speak Like a Pirate Day. Which is a real bummer to me.

Anyhow, there are some of the character portraits that have been created for "Supermodel Slapfest." The Combat Scenario itself will revolve around six supermodels locked in a building with a masked killer who is stalking and picking them off. Of course, the supermodels can also take the opportunity to kill hated rivals and blame it on the insane butcher.

 

Coming this week from NUELOW Games

We're re-releasing "Dyvil: Jeff Grubb's 30-Minute Roleplaying Game", in anticipation of "Dyvil: Revised and Expanded" in the month of October. Look for it Thursday.
