Re: Required Horror Material

Let me recommend a pair of short stories that are worth reading if you run Ravenloft or other horror RPGs. I think they are great examples of merging horror with action. Both are by Robert E. Howard: "Black Wind Blowing" and "Graveyard Rats." You can probably find them online for...

Re: Super-Powered ROLF! (Wanna give feedback?)

However, I would also like to see some "deathray" superpowers for the evil mad doctor. Your wish is our command. I don't know if the Death Ray product will be done for release this weekend, but it's designed and off to the editor and play-test group. :) "Death Rays at Forty Paces&quo...

Re: The Raven

I liked it... and I gave it a favorable review. Which goes to show that I have better taste and am smarter than most other reviewers out there. :D

Super-Powered ROLF! (Wanna give feedback?)

There are one or two people here who have some experience with ROLF!: The Rollplaying Game of Big Dumb Fighters , so I am sending up a flare and asking if you want to comment on rules for adding super-powers to the game. Click here to visit the NUELOW Games blog and take a look at what we're plannin...

Re: Burning of haunted house

Burning a haunted house to the ground may give rise to an even bigger haunting... the house becomes a ghost. (The resulting adventure could be something ala "Bleak House" or the haunted house adventure in "Dark Tales.")

The Final Battle (#1): Death vs. the Mayan Moon Goddess

The world is ending some time this year--or so the Mayans supposedly predicted--so I'm putting out a "Final Battle" for ROLF! each and every month. Until we're all dead/transcended/ascended/Republicans... or until December 2012, whichever comes first. Since the first Final Battle features ...

A new offering from NUELOW Games of possible interest.

Hi everyone... I've compiled another little anthology for NUELOW Games that I think might be books fans of Ravenloft would be interested in. Shadows Over Texas: Three Pulp Fiction Horror Classics Set in the Lone Star State by Robert E. Howard. In my opinion, Howard remains the unconquered master of ...

In the lastest ROLF! release, time-traveling filmmaker Edward D. Wood Jr. battles a demonic turkey to save the lives of some young Pilgrims. Yes... the legendary maker of turkeys turns turkey-killer in this very special ROLF! Thanksgiving celebration! What's even more special, is that if you use the...

Just in time for Halloween: 'White Fell and Other Stories'

Lovers of Ravenloft might also love the stories in this little anthology I've put together and released through NUELOW Games. (Fact: These are more Ravenloft-y than most Ravenloft-branded fiction ever was.) White Fell and Other Stories features four gothic horror tales of lycanthropes... and not the...

We were going to do one more Halloween release, but it's looking like we're going to drop the ball. "ROLF!: White Zombie" will feature stats for the characters from the classic movie, Rob Zombie, Ron Paul, Conan O'Brien, Andy Richter, Ving Rhames, and Ken Foree... but L.L. Hundal has gotte...

Re: Not horror, but since this partially had its genesis her

Steve, are you familiar with the SJGames card game "Burn in Hell"? It features several hundred dead people from history, and you play as demon lords in Hell trying to build the finest collection of souls. Nope, but it does sound up my alley, so I'll be ordering a copy. Thanks for the reco...

Re: Not horror, but since this partially had its genesis her

One must wonder what they wore UNDER those uniforms. We answer that question in "Gaddafi's Angels." :D And HuManBing... I will venture a guess that life as one of Gaddafi's "Amazons" was probably somewhere between the sob stories that those left standing are telling (just like n...
