Knights & Knaves Alehouse

Actually I've got an idea for an article but don't have the time for both organising and writing. I'll dwell on it for a little bit.

Thinking of writing yet another character generator for OSRIC (Ruby on Rails) and documenting the design/implementation. Don't know if that's of interest to people.

(I'm not a Rubyist but I am a software developer.)

I've got this vision of making a pad of pregens for con game use.

Sounds like it is positively "foundational" material.

/kicks can

This is cool:
Axemental: Cover Art, Jungle/India dungeon(4-5 pages)
Fingolwyn: Dungeon/Map
Papersandpaychecks: Panzerblitz scenario
deathanddrek: character generator

How 'bout the rest of you dudes who haven't had a weekly game since you were back in middle school?

Mr rr "hobbit" edmond, has kindly agreed to help proof submissions.

I don't think I was very respectful in my request for submissions, above. Honestly, I think this is an extremely informative, useful, and humorous forum, and that's because of the quality of posters here. I think it'd be excellent if you'd submit something which you've pondered over, and reached a conclusion(or new magic items, monsters, a dungeon, a campaign consideration, perhaps).

I dunno, I thought it was funny.

Is this going to be a free magazine or are you charging some nominal fee for it? The idea of an "OSRIC" magazine appeals to me, though I wonder about what is essentially splitting resources between it and Footprints.

I would be willing to contribute a monster lair on a semi-regular basis.

Ditto for a dungeon map.

What are the deadlines for committing and submitting? "Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion."

I'll contribute five magic items for illusionists.

Yeah, give us some sort of deadline date. It doesn't have to be in stone, just a target.

I would love to send in my mini-adventure called "Chasm of the Faceless Lord". It was written for Tower of Gygax, but with a few tweaks I think it could make for a decent contribution to the whole. Keep me in the loop, my good fellows.

This is very good! I think a conservative deadline for release is say three months from now i.e. early June. I'd really like if people can submit stuff within next month though.

I'd ike for this magazine to be freely available.

You can send your submission to: knightsandknavesalehouse at gmail dot com. If you'd rather do it another way, let me know.

Over at Unseen Servant we've been building a town, in workshop kind of way here:
http://www.unseenservant.us/forum/viewforum.php?f=67

They are small pieces of what will be a larger town. Perhaps we can unveil something like that throughout the issues. Folks I've talked to over there have been keen on it. Got some other ideas too, but I figure this would be the easiest because it's a project already in the works, and we could use as much or as little as we like to help with the issues layout.

How many words/pages per dungeon submission sounds about right? Something like Dungeon Magazine?
