  • Rock and Role: The Con Hangover!

    I’m taking a quick derivation today to talk about Nanocon. This is the convention that Silver Gryphon Games uses to end its con year on. Living in the midwest United States, the traveling weather gets dicey this time of year, so we don’t travel much between November and February. We go out on Nanocon for…

  • Rock and Role: Welcoming new blood

    Something magical happens when you have a player completely new to gaming sit down at your table. Usually, it grinds everything to a halt. Even with everyone’s best intentions at work, it usually turns into a situation of too many cooks in the kitchen. Too many people start giving what is ordinarily excellent advice, but…

  • Happy Friday!

    Well, it’s the day after Halloween, so this is a little late, but Happy Halloween! If you missed it this last week, we presented the fourth installment of Camp Wicakini, and it’s available in Savage Worlds and, of course, Æther! This horrific romp brings the PCs in to hunt down Wanagi Mato and bring him…

  • Camp Wicakini 4 has been unleashed!

    You weren’t expecting the head of the Kinzey Foundation to contact you for a job. Everyone knows they are into some heavy stuff, that the Foundation building parks is just their public face. After the meeting, you’re just as confused as you were before. It just doesn’t make any sense. You’re supposed to go up…

  • Happy Friday!

    It’s another Friday, and it’s been a busy week at Silver Gryphon Games, so let’s get to it! We’ve been in full-blown Kickstarter mode for so long, that we’re looking forward to getting done with it, and we’re getting close to being in post-kickstarter production! That has caused some delays here in our day to…

  • Happy Friday!

    This last week went so fast! We had a big week, too! We wrapped up our Kickstarter for Æthermancy, and we were successful! Again, thanks to all of our backers! We are ahead of schedule on our surveys and even our payments from Kickstarter! Kevin has been working hard on getting the document done, we’ve…

  • Wellstone City Wednesday – Upstarts and Vigilantes

    Freelancers and syndicate members aren’t the only game in town. There are plenty of unlicensed, under-the-radar folks that make a living keeping the streets clean. They aren’t there to make a name for themselves; they exist just to make things better. The big difference between these and Freelancers, aside from keeping things very quiet, is…

  • Happy Friday!

    It’s been a while since we’ve had a solid update, so where we go! We’re having a Kickstarter for Æthermancy, and we’re almost funded! Go check it out, see the updates, shoot us a question, pledge if you haven’t! We are in the last few hours of the funding process, and if you’re unfamiliar with…

  • Wellstone City Wednesday – Exotic Ammunition

    There seems to be an upswing in what the police are calling “bullet bling” on the streets of Wellstone, particularly in the Old Parish and the Creole Quarter. Silver bullets seem to be a popular choice, but police are turning up iron bullets with thin silver half-jackets, they are finding wood core bullets, and even…

  • Rock and Role: Living with your Choices

    Sometimes when playing a game, you make bad decisions because you simply don’t know the situation you’re going into. The decisions could be about the wrong gear, the wrong spells, or anything else that is vital to your tactical approach. To be fair, it’s not your fault as a player. It’s not the GM’s job…
