Brick Monsters is here!
Brick Monsters is a combination of a Monster Manual and building instructions for Lego bricks. My goal is to include two different designs for the same monster along with suggestions of alternate possibilities if you don't have the needed pieces. It will also include monster stat sheets in some systems.I've been doing Dungeons and Dragons 3.5 and 5th edition but that might not always be the case.

Tiny Frontiers
I received an email about Tiny Wastelands kickstarter recently. I've really enjoyed Tiny Epic Kingdoms and Tiny Epic Galaxies. A post-apocalyptic game sounded awesome. When I checked out the kickstarter, I realized it was a "Tiny" game not a "Tiny Epic" game. I could have just stopped there but I decided to learn more about the Tiny games from Gallant Knight Games.

Open Game Source: Viobyte 0.0.0 (Again)
I learned of the TinyArcade when it was launched on kickstarter. It looked interesting but not enough to convince me to back it. Since playing with the TinyScreen Video Game Kit, I debated picking up the TinyArcade. To my surprise, TinyCircuits played my viobyte game and liked it. They offered to send me a TinyArcade if I would port it to that platform.

Open Game Art Valentine
Valentine's day is for showing your love to others. Everyone runs out and buys cards to hand out. I don't particularly like buying cards. The cards are very expensive for paper that you just toss later. I sometimes find the cards to be a little generic as well.

Open Game Source: Shrinkgrowrays 0.0.0
My youngest searched for a mod for Minetest to add the Thing from the Fantastic Four. Needless to say no one had created such a mod. I thought about it and figured I might be able to solve the problem.
A simple mistake led me to discover how to shrink a monster.

Open Game Source: Viobyte 0.0.0
Some time ago, I had a Space Invaders keychain which played a monochrome version of the game that was fun. When it broke I purchased a color version of the keychain. It also broke. My youngest thought I should get another one. Last I looked I didn't find anything I liked but I tried again.
My search discovered the TinyScreen Video Game Kit.

A Boy and his Modron
A college friend visited over the summer. I volunteered to run a 5th edition Dungeons and Dragons game for him and the kids. For my 4th edition games, I typically create an original adventure but borrow encounters from various adventures. I planned on doing the same for 5th edition. The storyline was going to involved a telepathic chicken and a crazy druid. But when I searched for adventures to steal from, I discovered a Boy and his Modron.

Open Game Source: Scriptmine 0.0.0
My son recently attended a "Coding with Minecraft" at the library. The class didn't explain too much about programming. It was more about exposing them to the idea of what could be done. The class showed them how to run functions to build things.

Prime Directive PD20 Modern Supplement
Amarillo Design Bureau released the Prime Directive PD20 Modern Supplement as an early bird PDF edition. I have never played the Star Fleet Battles games nor even Prime Directive. My purchase of Prime Directive was to get a D20 Modern Star Trek game. D20 Modern was not a great system but I enjoyed the familiarity of the system.

New World: Deities: Mirtish
The official religion of the Mirtish Empire set by the first Emperor Eratos. According to the Emperor, he turned to Attun when the god revealed himself in a dream and demanded the false idols be forgotten. Some believe the change was simply political due to the interference of Gracos high priests. By starting a new religion with him at the top, the Emperor could not be questioned.
