No posts on any of my blogs this week.

I am having really bad eye trouble. Hopefully, tomorrow's trip to the doctor will start to make things better.

I hope you'll check in at some point in the future.

And now... 'ROLF!: Playwrights and Piledrivers'

It's the battle to settle, once and for all, who gets to claim credit for the Complete Works of William Shakespear! In this corner: Sir Francis Bacon and the Earl of Oxford. In that corner, William Shakespeare and Macho Man Randy Savage!

Return to the world of "Houseboat on the River Styx", as "ROLF!: Playwrights and Piledrivers" pits Elizabethan poets versus Macho Man Randy Savage in a product only slightly less silly than the plot of Roland Emmerich's "Anonymous."

With new Combat Maneuvers, six pre-generated characters (including the Earl of Oxford and Macho Man Randy Savage), and fiction written by Steve Miller (or possibly Sir Francis Bacon... we may never know the truth, but it is a fact that Everything Is Better With Bacon), it's literary conspiracy theory as only NUELOW Games can do!

Steve Costigan battles again on 11/16/2011!

Last month, NUELOW Games released "Fists of Foolishness", a collection of ten humorous short stories by Robert E. Howard detailing the misadventures of sea-faring boxing champ Steve Costigan.

This Wednesday, Costigan sails again, taking the fight to gangsters, Chinese warlords, Mexican bandits, con artists, and any and all boxers who face him in the ring in "Shanghaied Mitts."

Featuring 11 action-packed tales of outrageous adventures that take Costigan from the wilds of Texas to the interior of China, and a handful for battle scenarios designed for use with The Violent Worlds of Robert E. Howard game, this book is a must-have if you enjoyed Volume One.

Keep watching this space for news as to when the book will be on sale at the NUELOW Games store at Onebookshelf.com. Meanwhile, here's a look at the cover illustration for "Shanghaied Mitts."

Combat Maneuver: Kung Fu Face!

In celebration of Nine Days of the Ninja, here's a ROLF! Combat Manuever. (It will probably be refined by the time it appears in the forthcoming "ROLF!: Nine Days of the Ninja" supplement. Due this Saturday!)

ROLF! for the iPhone is now available!

The ROLF! iPhone app game is now available in the iTunes store! Yay! Click here to check it out!

The app comes with a printable copy of the original "ROLF!: The Rollplaying Game for Big Dumb Fighters" so you can use the app based on the table-top game so you can play the table-top game!

The game features art and character portraits by Larry Elmore (just like the basic game and the first few supplements... as well as some that are coming up, as we drag Elmore back into the madness that is ROLF!)

Rick will be adding combat scenarios, characters, and such. And please let us know what you think of it, either on the iTunes site, here, or via email to me. :)

(Oh... and given the disclaimers on the game, Apple must be quite sensitive to violence and nudity. Or I'm desensitized to it.)
