Last week we touched on the idea of living forever in the future of Aliens & Asteroids. This week, I’d like to touch on the costs of living in the past through a glimpse at the world of Tattered Magicks. As you might imagine, most of human history is rife with pain. The victors may…
Immortality is one of those words thrown around like everybody knows what it means. And I know you know what it means – everybody does, right? An immortal is someone who will live forever. I think most people strive for some sort of immortality, though we don’t all call it that. In Aliens & Asteroids…
On New Years’ Day, Andrew Girdwood over at Geek Native kicked off a new RPG Blog Carnival all about random encounter tables. And one of the first things he said was that he didn’t always like them. And I can honestly kind of get that. The random tables of my youth (all 1e and 2e…
It’s been a while, but I wanted to just offer a quick “state of the universe” kind of address about the current state of Aliens & Asteroids. It’s been a busy few months! My goal for A&A in 2019 was to release six products. We came very close and released five products in the last…
Sometimes the RPG Blog Carnival presents an opportunity I can’t pass up. This month, the folks at Rising Phoenix Games are hosting and the topic is… “Adventurer, take this…” And a few things immediately sprung to mind for Aliens & Asteroids. The first thing is inspired by our current A&A referee, Kae. She has done…
As our weekly playtest of Tattered Magicks has continued, they have encountered a few items.

We’ve been having fun in our weekly playtest session of Tattered Magicks. And as my group comes to the end of this first salvo of stories, they have managed to encounter a few magick items along the way. Last week we revealed the Scáth (or “Shadow” in Gaelic) Dagger, which allows its owner to pass…
In any good “magickal” world, there have to be magick items sprinkled around. Perhaps it’s a magick staff, a magick wand, or a magick sword, but in Tattered Magicks, we have room for them all. Creating magick items can be as easy as finding a character with the Craft Items trait and convincing them to…
In honor of Halloween, I thought it was time to reveal a bit about vampires in the Tattered Magicks world. Though my playtesters haven’t encountered any yet, they are definitely out and about causing trouble wherever they choose to go. Like many folks, I had a great time playing White Wolf’s Vampire the Masquerade game…
With Halloween just around the corner, I wanted to highlight a few things in the Moebius Adventures catalog that may give you some ideas for the game table! First, we have the latest Aliens & Asteroids release — Fate of the Solar Chaser by Eric Bloat, zombie aficionado and game designer at Bloat Games. In…
