The Backroad to Civilization

January 6th, 2023:

Quiet night at home last night. I forgot to bring the iBook G4 home when

I left work, so no updates on that front. Instead, I spent quality time

in the living room with Rachel and Astrid. I spent most of my time

browsing Drive-Thru RPG's "New Year New Game" sale, getting halfway

through the list without anything seriously catching my eye.

I'm not really in the market for a new RPG system (God knows I have enough

of them already), but it's nice to browse for ideas. I've also been

watching for the Genesys supplement Embers of the Imperium as it's

supposed to come out Any Day Now, last I heard. I'm not exactly starving

for another space opera setting, but I do want to support Genesys to

ensure more titles in the future. It's an interesting system with a great

narrative dice gimmick (based on their Star Wars RPG dice) I've grown to

like. Won't go into details just now, as I'm not in the mood for further

exposition.

With that in mind, tonight's plan is to get everything ready for a bit of

RPGing tomorrow and/or Sunday. I'm keen to get in some BECMI or GURPS

time, even if it's just designing or mapping.
