Off-topic for the thread, but...
My dayjob is as the Asst. District Manager/Education Coordinator for a company that, among other things, runs about 20 tax preperation offices in the Federal Way/Renton area. I do their newsletter, manage the education program the company runs, deal with emerencies in the offices, deal with misc. human resources issues, and other things as they come up.
It's like being a DM but it's in real life.

I just hope you don't use dice to solve all your HR issues.

Not quite... more like in-house staff training.
And I WISH I could resolve all issues with die rolls! It would make my day so much shorter. And more fun!

Just try... If industry works as effective as where I come from, you'll have retired long before they notice a difference...

I'll confess that I have a Magic 8-Ball on my desk, sometimes when my employees get out of hand, it makes me laugh to ask it questions like 'Would my life be better off without this person?"

I just got the book (along with Legacy cause I figured I should buy them with Arthaus dropping RL) and WOW WOW WOW to the illustrations by Claudio Pozas in the Ashington Curse adventure. For me it's your best drawings ever!
Bravo!

I agree with the comment about the art for "Curse of Ashington Manor." Out of the products where I had no input into the illos, the illos for that piece are the ones I have pretty much no complaints with!

Thanks! I am pretty proud of them myself!
Now if only I got my author's copies I could actually READ the thing!

I've basically read Curse of Ashington Manor and I must agree it's very well designed.
Good work Steve.
