Happy International Women’s Day!

#PressforProgress
Our message for International Women's Day
Meet the lady Gamers Kellie and Jocelyne who want to talk about International Women's Day (IWD) and were celebrating it this year at Tucson Games and Gadgets. On March 8 and I think this is a new tradition for every year! Today on International Women's Day we commemorate the movement for women's rights.
While the first observance of a Women's Day was held on February 28, 1909 in New York, the 1910 International Woman’s Conference suggested March 8 to become an "International Woman's Day."
Please be grateful for all the ladies at the gaming tables and lets all be allies to each other while sharing and respecting each other at the table and outside the hobbies we love!

“I’m getting a signal.” Dalil’s voice crackled over the com. “We’re close.” The navigator gazed into the darkness ahead, his face ghostly pale in the cold glow from the tabula in his hands.Radwa nodded silently for her comrades to advance, approaching the strange ruins in the moonscape. The only sound they could hear was their own breathing through the air filters, and the soft crunch under their boots.The floodlights from the freighter Narzalus behind them cast long shadows of the trio.“Something is wrong, boss.” The sharp voice of Jhara broke the silence. Her vulcan rifle hummed as the tall woman from Sadaal activated her weapon. Without turning, Radwa raised her hand to still her friend.“Easy, Jha,” she whispered over the com.The explorers shone their suit-mounted flashlights over the ruins. Alien signs were carved into the smooth dark surfaces. In the light, they seemed to be glowing.Something slowly unraveled before them. A darkness rose from the surface of the dead moon, reaching towards the starry sky above them.“Mercy of the Icons!” Radwa gasped, and felt a chill spread throughout her body.Coriolis – The Third Horizon is a science fiction role-playing game from the makers of critically acclaimed Mutant: Year Zero (six-time nominee and winner of a Silver Ennie for Best Rules 2015).Features:•Create your unique player character – including skills, talents, gear and relationships – in mere minutes.•Fight fast and furious battles, praying to the Icons to overcome your enemies.•Build and crew your own spaceship, to explore the many star systems of the Third Horizon.•Experience thrilling spaceship duels, using a game system that puts all player characters at the heart of the action.•Take part in the intrigue between powerful factions on the majestic space station Coriolis.•Uncover the mysteries of the Third Horizon, a rich tapestry of cultures that have settled the stars.“The game's authors describe it as ‘Arabian Nights in space’ and it fulfills that brief marvelously.

Interview with John Paul Ried and his newest addition to The Medford Family Chronicles

Find more about John Paul Ried and his great books and groups we talked about at the below links:https://www.amazon.com/John-Paul-Ried/e/B00Z4OW910palamarin adventures llc at http://www.palamaranadventures.com/ and https://www.facebook.com/PalamaranAdventuresLLC/?pnref=about.overviewImperial outpost games https://www.facebook.com/imperial.outpost.7/
Here's the teaser for the book that starterd itall!Reckless Ambitions (The Medford Family Chronicles Book 1)The beloved, highly respected, and automatically obeyed Palamaran Emperor John Cardillion III suddenly has died without naming a successor. He has four very powerful sons, An Arch Cleric, a Fighter, a Wizard and a Merchant Prince (aka thief), who are eager to slay each other and claim their father’s Ruby Throne. Earl Thomas Medford, the former Emperor’s best friend and Commander of the Imperial Guard, has to decide which royal brother to support for the throne and marry his deliciously gorgeous only daughter too. Earl Medford intends to either avert or win a bloody and vicious civil war.
Meanwhile Earl Medford’s daughter Christina has fallen hopelessly in love with one of the many Imperial Guard officers, Nick Armand. Christina and her best friend, Abigail Theosoar, do everything they can to hide this passionate romance. The not-so-simple Palace Gardener, Dr. Andrew Numil, who has his own agendas, discovers Christina’s secret and uses it to his advantage. Abigail Theosoar’s father, former gladiator and tavern owner Robert Theosoar, falls under a terrible curse with politics as the new Lord Mayor of the Palamaran Capitol.
Finally, Professor Oliver Wendell Enalan, a middle-aged Illusionist spellcaster from the Gamemasters University, finds new psionic abilities within himself as he falls in love with a beautiful Elven refugee Princess. The Gamemasters University, of which Professor Enalan is employed, is dedicated to searching the limitless multiverse for new and exciting games to play augmenting their magical powers. Will Enalan be able to defend the GMU mission and fulfill his destiny? Is the price of ultimate power bitter loveless loss? You shall judge in the end.

Tucson Comic Con 2017 Too perfect Heroes

What makes a protagonist great? What makes a good hero? I personally enjoy a hero with some real world issues and circumstance. Also I apologize in advance for the sick sniffling crowd around me I tried to clean it up as best I could.

Outpost Siberia Playtest and Review

We crack open the beautiful Tin of Outpost Siberia!*NSFW*Join Jaaz, Kellie, Joclyne and I as  we learn a little russian, we have some drinks and plenty of 'In soviet russia...' jokes! Join us as we play our international group of outpost adventurers. *Please be advised we were provided this game by IDW Games who sent me a copy of “Outpost: Siberia” for the purposes of this review,  but as always the opinions expressed are honest, open opinionaedand our own!*Please anyone fluent in Russian let us know is we are saying it right ;)
"Welcome to Outpost 1, an observatory in the isolated frozen tundra of Siberia! My and my team have been studying the area, but last night a massive storm set in, bringing with it a pack of nightmarishly strange creatures. Now, trapped by the weather and these beasts our only hope is the use our meager resources to defend ourselves and wait out the storm. Ration our vodka carefully and we may see the sun again!"-Outpost: Siberia
To say surviving Outpost Siberia is a challenge is the understatement of the year. You will die, over and over again in new ways. Sometimes it will be of thirst, other times you'll perish in the horns of a siberia moose or some mutant snow beast. But rest assured, you will meet your end in the cold Siberian snow and there is nothing you can do about it.
But is it fun or frustrating?
