Re: Inspirational Movies and TV for Dark Conspiracy

... similar to the depiction in the movie The Rover. I love the setting of The Rover... I feel it really does depict how a collapse will occur. My favourite 'throw away' scene is the bit when the two protagonists stop at the train crossing in the middle of nowhere and the mining train rolls past - ...

Re: Inspirational Movies and TV for Dark Conspiracy

I've been replaying the 2015 Mad Max computer game (which is very different from the Fury Road movie)... and was thinking the original Mad Max movie is very Outlaw and Greater Depression...

Re: Any idea of deadline for issue 4?

DEMONGROUND 20th anniversary edition. Huh? I had no idea about that :? Well, I put forward the idea of a special issue a while ago when Clockwork announced their intention of a new Dark Conspiracy edition. Marcus, Mike and Geoff were all cool with the idea and someone said October will mark 20 year...

I really like the look of this... after playing The Sprawl (a Cyberpunk implementation of PbtA) I was a bit burnt on cyberpunk. This seems much more my style, I have to say!

Modern Age - Quickstart

I see that the Modern Age (a derivative from Green Ronin's Dragon Age & Fantasy Age) is now available - https://greenronin.com/blog/2018/05/16/jump-into-the-action-modern-age-quickstart-is-out/ I've been keeping my eye on this for a long while as I think it has the potential to be a perfect mode...

Re: Creature on the DC 1st Edition Cover?

Given that various parts of DC 1st edition were all being created at the same time in different places by different people, my best guess is that it's a nest of Lesser Vampires and our beastie is actually a Bloodkin Vampire as visualised by Larry Elmore 8) Quite an interesting alternative look for ...

Creature on the DC 1st Edition Cover?

So today I was looking at the DC 1st edition cover - one of my favourite RPG pieces of art (although a bit dated now :P) ... and I noticed two things: The other people in the back of the image, and The creature behind the zombies! I never noticed it before, but there it is (see the image attached). ...

Re: Dark Conspiracy 4th Edition!

Hi All... please take the following in the spirit that it is intended - as personal opinion and self indulgence - nothing more! So... I'm not looking forward to the new 4th edition of Dark Conspiracy. Why? Because it won't be my Dark Conspiracy, it'll be modernised and changed, updated and different...

Re: Sources on Europe in Dark Conspiracy

Welcome onboard! In regards to your question, not really. The adventure 'Among the Dead' covers Moscow, and something of Russian, but not much more. A few old issues of Demonground (http://www.demonground.org/) had some information on Dark Britain (written by my old friend Lee Williams), but as the ...

Re: Gun P@rn - Safe For Work!
