This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Very important: Avalon Games is having a year-ending sale starting on THANKSGIVING and continuing until the end of the year. That's 25% off everything.

Now that we have that out of the way, in the vein of being prepared, this month I suggest a specialized treasure chart for your team, regardless of the setting. Often people who use random rolls for finding treasure end up regretting what their players find: items too powerful, too unrelated, or too confusing for the characters to use. Too many times I've heard a GM, after rolling for treasures, let out an expletive.

So before the game session, pick out ten really good treasures that pertain to the adventure at hand and "seed" your random charts so that if you roll something stupid or overly powerful you can substitute one of these instead. The players will appreciate the useful treasures without realizing what they've missed.  

Anyway, here are this month's releases.

One Knight Games, Vol 2, Issue 15
AVG4900-30
27 Pages
A.J Keening
$2.99

Ultrapolis
 
Hopelessness: For all of their efforts in the defense of the Sticks, the Vigilantes have been branded criminals. Not just petty criminals, either—they have been labeled "terrorists", which means that they now face an opponent like no other: the entire might of the Ultrapolis. They are to be hunted down and executed. Their hidden benefactor is already dead; the Vigilante group is finished. Their only hope of survival is to flee the city and live in hiding far away for the rest of their lives. The catch is, there are monitoring devices all throughout the Ultrapolis. To go out into the streets of the city is to be instantly spotted. The chances of escaping are so slim as to be non-existent, but to remain in the city is to guarantee that they will all be caught and killed eventually. So, they must take their one, small chance and hope, for as long as hope lasts.

When you want to game for just one night, One Knight Games provides everything you need. From reading the rules to making characters to playing the adventure, everything is geared toward having it all happen in a single night. The game rules are free, so download the system at http://www.rpgnow.com/product/124526/One-Knight-Games-Free-Rules?cPath=1658_19945 and check it out. Then try out the new adventures in the coliseum, which combines heroics and intrigue!

The adventures of One Knight Games provide the story, maps, and descriptions of encounters—everything you need to run the adventure. However, they do not tell the GM what to say during an encounter, nor do they dictate how to run said encounters. These things are up to the Gamemaster to decide. This issue of One Knight Games offers a full night's worth of fun, everything you need to run a fast, fun game with little effort and very little prep time.

Need a fast game to fill the night? Avalon is ready to help with our One Knight Game system. Get a free copy of the rules on the website, and get your game on.

Comic Book Adventures, Mission Book 5
AVG 4100-CBA-MS5
68 pages
$9.99
Robert Hemminger

This is the fifth in a series of missions usable with Comic Book Adventures. These low-level missions and adventures are geared toward fifth- to seven-level heroes to continue your fun solo games. The mission book is packed full of new quests and escapades, and builds on the story and plot line begun in the Mini-Mission and the first Mission Book.

Note: that this is not a full product and you will need a copy of Comic Book Adventures and Heroes Wear Masks, both by Avalon Games.

Comic Book Adventures uses Avalon's popular Heroes Wear Masks RPG as the base for the system, which in turn is based on Pathfinder, so if you are familiar with that great RPG game engine, then you are already to go.  If you have yet to play Pathfinder or Heroes Wear Masks, then here is your opportunity to jump in.

So get ready, sew your costume, grab your cape, and power up your energy beams: the city is in need of a hero and you must answer the call!
