Not long after the initial scenario pitch requirements for Parallel Lines were given to us, I found myself latching on to a set which would put the Agents against a backdrop of what they might at first see as someone else’s war. I hoped that I could provide a framework for the GM to work … Continue reading →

I enjoy a good superhero game, and will often track them down just to read how they approach the genre and character-building. I do not have exhaustive experience with all the top supers games out there, and there are a few major … Continue reading →
