Things to look forward to in ‘09

Friday, January 30th, 2009 | Cons, RPG, Sophie, blogging, games, geekdom

With January almost done 2009 is well under way so I thought I’d jot down a list of the things I’m looking forward to this year.

  • Receiving, reading and playing Mouse Guard. An RPG of the graphic novels by David Petersen it has had a number of great reviews and as a gaming friend said to me:

“It is one of the most playable RPGs I have come across.”

  • Pulling off Day of Games on May 16th. A small one day event here in Wellington with games being offered on the day and people voting for an choosing the game they feel like playing most. More info once I re-do the blog.
  • As Nick mentioned in a previous post Green Ronin have announced that A Song of Ice and Fire rpg has been approved and is on it’s way to the printers. I ran through the quick-start adventure back in July’08 and really liked what they had done. The core book is due out in March so I’ll be doing a write up once I get my hands on it.
  • Writing my Buffy: the Vampire Slayer RPG scenario series, The Slayer Chronicals.
  • Playing in my new Buffy game (there seems to be a theme), Fall. It’s a great group of people and I think will be heaps of fun. I’ll do a write up on our first mini-session soon.
  • Dollhouse starting on TV in the US.

I think that’s it for now. I’ll be back at certain points to see how these things all pan out.

Have you read Mouse Guard? I’ve seen stuff about it on RPG.net but not much else until I saw an interview with the author on The Onion AV Club today: http://www.avclub.com/articles/mouse-guards-david-petersen,23244/
