A starfield filled with thousands of stars and shining clouds of dust. The Milky Way\u2019s elegant spiral structure is dominated by just two arms wrapping off the ends of a central bar of stars. Spanning more than 100,000 light-years, Earth is located along one of the galaxy\u2019s spiral arms, about halfway from the center. Credit: NASA

I can't think of Seven Deadlock without thinking about this, so I kinda... had to voice it.

Listen I've only run them with human generals. The moment I get Miao Ying on the tabletop her troops are going to learn the true meaning of "cold and aloof"

This is exactly how I play on the tabletop. Genuinely only let units get sacrificed for victory if the general would do so. Letting hobgoblins die in my Chaos Dwarfs army? Acceptable. My Cathayans sacrificing peasants to win? No way, those are the people of Grand Cathay!!

this is a one page rpg entitled regime change super soldiers. You are state-engineered super-soldiers from a morally impeccable foreign power. You have been deployed to the world’s largest rogue state, the United States of America, to perform a humanitarian extraction of the President, who must be taken alive to face criminal charges back home. Players: Create a Character. They should have a bombastic name, an absurdly strong power and an ideological justification.

Example Names: The Human Shield, Johnny Nukes, Project Necessary Evil, Marshal Democracy 

Example Powers: Can punch holes into the future, can fire precision strikes that hit everything within three miles, can instantly declare anything a “military-aged male”,  can reroute international supply chains instantly.

You also have three STATS: 
POWER: raw force, explosions.
AUTHORITY: legality, consensus.
IMAGE: optics, media, vibes. 
Assign 3,2,1 to these stats.

GM: Create the President. They are: extremely protected, constantly moving, definitely not resigning. Beyond that you can choose which real US President from the last two decades you pick. Change vibes/era of game to match. Pick which American city they start in. Performing Actions: Every action has two features: it is cool and media-worthy and it causes untold destruction. To carry out an action: 

1.Stand up (optional).
2. Announce the cool and media-worthy part  of your action, for example: “I surgically neutralise hostile forces with my precision strikes”
3. Secretly write down the untold destruction caused by your action and hand it to the GM. Be specific and cruel. For example: “I level a whole district of LA including six schools and a hospital.”
4. Remove one point from the relevant stat.

GM: Write down the names of locations which must be destroyed before the President can actually be captured. Keep adding decoys, obstacles and opportunities for destruction until you are satisfied that the conditions for regime change have been achieved.

black and white illustration, in the style of a Victorian periodical. A reimagining of a shot in Jurassic Park, where Alan Grant confronts the T-Rex holding a flare, next to the upturned jeep with the kids inside, and the broken fence. here, a Victorian gentleman in long coat and hat holds a lamp, illuminating our favourite Megalosaurus, and an upturned horse-drawn carriage, with two children peering out the back. a breached cast iron gate completes the scene

please allow us to share one our all time fave bits of Crystal Palace Dinosaur art: “Jurassic Park 1854”, by the amazing @jedtaylorartist.bsky.social

back then, Richard Owen wrote that Megolasaurus “probably waged a deadly war against its less destructively endowed congeners and contemporaries”

A Bretonnian Royal Pegasus from Warhammer the Old World. Cream legs with brown fetlock fluff. Golden brown patterned underwing with grey brown and light patterned flight feathers. From this angle, though not wholly visible the top of the wing is a warm dark brown.
It wears a red and white caparison with ochre accents and armoured plates.

A Bretonnian Duke rides upon it's back wielding a white lance with a red candy-cane spiral.

Suddenly got struck with an idea for a miniatures-agnostic wargame, presenting playtest rules for WHEN SLURPASAURS RULED THE EARTH!

Kitbash some wildly inaccurate dinosaurs and make them fight cavepeople in a 1950s B-Movie-approximation of prehistoric Earth!

My most regular opponent is my neighbour and his Bretonnian army. He always rolls the horses first, and they frequently do more damage than the knights

a black and white drawing of a dinosaur standing in the desert . Alt: A loop of Gertie the Dinosaur, a black and white animation of a sauropod dinosaur standing on a rocky cliffside.

It's not solely referential to the 1950s side of palaeomedia; one of my favourite details I've put in this so far goes a little earlier. If you make one of your dinosaurs herbivorous, it can spend an action to eat from a nearby tree to heal, or, for a double-heal, fully consume it like Gertie!
