Read
I started an RPG reading club over on the Memories of Sunshine discord so I've been reading a lot recently. We have already read and discussed Lady Blackbird and The Three Coins. Next up is Desert Moon of Karth and Fighting Fantasy: The Introductory Role-Playing Game which I'm reading just now.

I've also been reading Outgunned, the action movie RPG. I kind of like the core and the stand alone Pulp version. The supplements are rubbish though. Still, I'd be interested to see it in action, maybe I'll try running some 2000ad stuff with it.

Play
I've played a few one-shots over the last few months. Black Sword Hack (good), Liminal Horror (good) and Fatherfog (fine).

We've got the Liminal Horror campaign The Parthenogenesis of Hungry Hollow lined up for our next campaign and I'll be a player in that one.

GM
I am almost finished Reach of the Roach God. It's been a fantastic campaign so far and I can't wait to see how it all wraps up. All they still have to do is four boss fights and visit an imprisoned wizard/lich although they might find some other distractions.

I've run a couple sessions of Deathmatch Island which was a step outside of my comfort zone but was good fun. It's like to run some more, a campaign is only 3 or 6 sessions after all.

I should probably figure out what my next long campaign will be. I'd really like to run Coriolis The Great Dark. Maybe Mutant Year Zero or Delta Green. Or MotherShip. I'll see what my players are interested in.

Play
Legends of Heroes: Trails in the Sky. I was trying to finish this before heading to France for three weeks but the final boss killed me and I didn't have time to try again. That aside, I really enjoyed the game. I love the tour the whole nation of Liberl premise and the very low-key local plots along the way. There's a good recurring cast and it all ties into a solid climax in the final area.

Want
I'm excited to get my RP Nova. I expect the first thing I'll be doing with it is playing Trails in the Sky SC. Hmm, unless there's an option to carry my save over if I stay on PC…

Bin
Sonic Mania. I literally found this cart in a Costa. I don't know why I tried it, I don't like Sonic games.

The nova has an optional second screen which turns it into a clamshell.

I was telling my wife how good the Retroid Pocket Nova looked and she said that I should just go buy one. So I did.
