No CommentsHello one and all.
Our submission deadline of the 12th of September has come and gone, and lo and behold we have our RPGs for Leprecon 31. A big thank you to all those who submitted ideas for games, and we look forward to seeing the finished product in March!
Without further ado, here they are:
The Crimson Eagles and the Invaders from Tomorrow! – Paul Anthony Shortt (Spirit of the Century)
Air raid sirens blare across the night sky. Battle Zepplins drop bombs on London. Nazi forces are advancing across Europe and the threat of a second Great War has never been greater. The year is 1935. A mysterious warlord has travelled from the future to wreak havoc on the past, tearing history asunder. Only the Crimson Eagles can possibly turn the tide and defeat this new menace and stop the Nazis from winning the war before it has even begun!
The Winter of 1854 – Padraic Barrett (Call of Cthulhu)
Citizens of Sevastopol pay HEED
Vice Admiral Nakhimov (Late of the Black Sea Fleet)
Will reward any Man, Woman or Child who identifies COLLABORATORS OF THE BRITISH AND FRENCH DOGS THAT BARK AT OUR GATES!!!
And wanted for the MURDER & MUTILATION of five seamen from the steam frigate Vladimir on November 3rd
Help the brave HEROES of the Black Sea Fleet
God save Tsar Nicholas!
The Deep Dark – Graham Tormey (Mouse Guard)
Mice struggle to live safely and prosper among all of the world’s harsh conditions and predators. Thus the Mouse Guard was formed, they are escorts, pathfinders, weather watchers, scouts and body guards for the mice who live among the territories.
They do so with fearless dedication so that they might not just exist, but truly live.
Recently reports have reached Lockhaven that tunnels have been uncovered near the town of Copperwood. The locals are worried and someone is going to be sent into the darkness to find out what is there.
Guess who that is going to be?
The deadliest prey – Graham Turner (Savage Worlds / Penny Arcade)
Mr. Bear’s Hell Circus is in town; and the good people of New Arcadia shudder at the very thought of the evil contained within its brightly painted tents. Doors are locked tightly, windows shut fast, and the streets deserted come nightfall…deserted that is, save for the Startling Developments Detective Agency, who, once again, find themselves treading without fear in the whispering dark…
A young girl genius- taken. A promise- broken. A sandwich- eaten. To bring down the infernal Mr. Bear, our heroes must recruit the help of the greatest hunter of all…but will even his aid be enough
WWS VI: Operation Olmec – Sean Geraghty (Savage Worlds)
The year is 1941. The armies of Soviet Russia have flooded through Europe and the Far East. The European powers, now united under the European Defence Force, struggle to contain the superhuman Icons and their lesser Super cousins. In America, the US remains technically neutral but gives tacit support to the beleaguered allies. But now an isolated incident in the remote jungles of Mexico is about to change the whole course of the war.
Welcome back to WWS.
Sight Unseen – Tadeusz Cantwell (Dark Heresy)
The Inquisitor activated your group just a few minutes ago. Each one of you grabbed your away bags and what guns were at hand. A flyer is taking you directly to the spaceport. Information is lacking, a report stripped of classified information is being prepared. Emperor bless you.
The Secret of Ronan Skerry – Michael Davis (Castles & Crusades)
The town of Port Vogey is in distress! For several weeks, no ships have come into port, and no-one knows why. Now the new moon has passed and the lighthouse keepers, the monks of the Sea Goddess, have missed their monthly trip into town for supplies. The town council are not sure whether this is due to mishap or foul play, but you have heard they are looking for some eager adventurers to investigate.
This game will be played using the Castles and Crusades RPG, an easy to learn, rules-lite game system based on earlier editions of Dungeons & Dragons.
The Quest for the Blue Rose – Noirín Curran (GURPS: Disney)
Once upon a time…
That’s how it ALWAYS begins – once upon a time. Well, the time is now, your princess is missing, and all the princes seem to have disappeared, and it’s up to you to show them all what you’re made of!
Surely you can prove yourself to be cuter than all those other talking animals, more useful than the other animated-inanimate objects, stronger than the rest of the himbo princes, more evil than the evilest of evil stepmothers, and shinier than a flock of fairy godmothers!
Be sure to get your princess home in time, lest she turn into a pumpkin!
The Ebon Express – Ger Norton and Barry Sheppard (D&D Eberron 4th Edition)
The Tribunal of Thronehold has brought hundreds of war criminals to justice since the end of the last war, but never one as big as this.
Now the Ebon Archons, the elite team who captured him, are only one Lightning Rail ride away from bringing him to justice, if they can only keep him alive.
I hope you’ll all agree with me when I say that these games all sound like they are going to be excellent. Thanks again to everyone who submitted a blurb. We will be in touch with our writers to let them know about the Writer’s Prize and submission deadlines soon!
