The Plague Ship - the Challenge
Wednesday, August 10th, 2011By now you are probably wondering how the Challenge works. The answer is: A bit different. The player has to stop the fortress ship* before it actually reaches the Isle of the Gods where it intends to squash the rebellion once and for all (no, you don’t get X-Wings):

The Plague Ship
Tuesday, August 9th, 2011Something was wrong. Nyala looked up from the net she had been mending in the shadow of the palm tree. Looking out over the calm sea, nothing stirred in the turquoise-blue waters. The wind was slight, enough to cool the sweat on her skin, but hardly any clouds dotted the blue skies.
Then what was it? Nyala suddenly realized it was the complete stillness of everything. There were no bird cries, no buzzing of insects, even the sound of the turf and the rustling of wind-driven sand seemed quieter than usual. As if the world was holding its breath.
Nyala focussed on the beach far beyond the lagoon she was sitting at, the beach that was part of the little peninsula that formed the protected lagoon. And she wished to be there. As usual the result slightly nauseated her, as if she had eaten some rotten fish. But now it only took a few steps through the foliage to come out on the other side.
On the horizon a dark shape hovered, like a storm front, smaller, yet even more menacing. As she tried to focus on the shifting mass, a shadow fell on her. “So there are seagulls after all” was the last thing she thought before a mighty blow drove her to the ground. A second after the attack the stench came, making her gag while the fiery-hot pain raked across her back provided a fine counterpoint. Unable to move she could now see something emerge from the clouds across the sand level with her eyes, a ship of sorts. Above the strange ship flying creatures soared, oozing menace.
“Daemons, not seagulls. The Chosen have finally sought a way across the waves. I must warn the lady”, she thought wearily, and then the shadow returned.
Atu the Fallen coming to GenCon
Wednesday, August 3rd, 2011The line-up of Medusans is going to be bolstered by Atu The Fallen. Usually played by yours truly, at GenCon Richard Carter will play this follow-up to the Queen of Syneri.
Troubled Dreams
Monday, August 1st, 2011Are you having troubled dreams these days? One reason might be, that you are excited about traveling to GenCon.
Another might be, that a new wave of The Chosen has braved the dimensional gates and is now entering your dreams…
This, the Oneiroi, is the new Medusan Lord to be revealed at GenCon 2011. The Oneiroi may be challenged by up to 3 opposing players, but no Warlord may be duplicated.
