seneschal Posted August 21, 2010 Author Share Posted August 21, 2010 Anyone who entered a scenario in the BRP Adventure or Cthulhu Invictus contests heard anything yet? Last word I had was that Chaosium would make a decision in late July. We're now in mid-August. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyman Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Dustin tweeted that he gave the monograph to Meghan for layout this week BTW light sabers are bad azz-tech Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonHook Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Anyone who entered a scenario in the BRP Adventure or Cthulhu Invictus contests heard anything yet? Last word I had was that Chaosium would make a decision in late July. We're now in mid-August. That's what I've heard too. When I heard that the monograph was sent for layout, and I hadn't heard anything from Dustin, I just assumed that I didn't make the cut. But if no one else had heard back either, then maybe there is still hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seneschal Posted August 27, 2010 Author Share Posted August 27, 2010 I've hesitated to e-mail Dustin Wright because I didn't want to seem pushy and I know things have been hectic over at Chaosium (is that a pun?). But it would be nice to know yeah or nay before the monograph is advertised for purchase. If I didn't make the cut, oh well, there's always next year.

seneschal Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 Those contest entries have been "being edited" for 7 months now. With the editor now at a convention, per a recent Twitter announcement, I guess we'll have to wait a bit longer to find out the results. The results, also per Twitter, were supposed to be announced by the end of 2011. Oops! I'm secretly hoping the reason there's been a delay is that we all did so wonderfully well that we're getting the full-color-glossy paper-hardback treatment. Yeah, I know. But Basic Roleplaying specializes in fantasy, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agentorange Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Joking aside I've never understood why they don't give the prize winner collections a full general release. The quality is generally pretty high...and what a great way of showcasing how versatile BRP is and at the same time saying to prospective buyers:' you could do this you know. ' If they paid everyone $25 for their entry and some sort of royalty I reckon they'd still come out ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonHook Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Ladies and gentlemen, if you submitted an adventure to the 2010 BRP Adventure Contest, please watch your email inbox. I just got an email from Megan, and my adventure was accepted! Her email is very brief with no other details, other than my adventure was accepted. I have no idea what they are going to call the new anthology book, or when it will be published. But at least we now know that notices are being emailed out. So watch your inbox!

JonHook Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 What is the genre of your adventure ? My adventure is a western horror titled "Blood & Badges".

Skyman Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I got an e-mail saying I got accepted for the upcoming BRP Invictus Monograph. So this rocks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seneschal Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 I, too, got notice that my (mostly) historical Western adventure The Goblin Hoss was accepted. I'm happy, and relieved. It has been hard to wait. I'd written Dustin Wright that I was failing my SAN rolls. This news (and my new padded room) is working wonders.

rleduc Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I sent him a copy when I was writing it -- I need some material from the second book (which we are all waiting for Rod). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threedeesix Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Did you playtest it? As lots of stuff for Classic Fantasy have yet to see print, Rich sent me the adventure to look over and offer some input. I supplied him with some monster information as well as other stuff from the as yet unpublished Classic Fantasy II. I have to admit, It was kinda awesome to see someone else doing something for a book I worked so hard on.

seneschal Posted April 15, 2011 Author Share Posted April 15, 2011 Blood and Badges and Other Adventures for Basic Roleplaying Monograph, 132 pages, softbound, no table of contents or index, ISBN 1568823533. Contains nine winning entries from the 2010 BRP Adventure Contest. Adventures include: I Sette Magnifici Bastardi by Kevin Ross – spaghetti Western Blood and Badges by Jon Hook – Western horror The Goblin Hoss by Kevin Scrivner – Western horror In the Frozen Darkness by R.J. Christensen – Fifties horror Out with a BANG by Tom Lynch – cyberpunk The Haunted Bridge by Rich LeDuc – fantasy Company Town: Stepchildren of the Night by Mike Czaplinski – humorous conspiracy From Pagania with Hate by Marko Ercegovi’c “Streebor” – medieval horror The Prison of Outlaws by Simon Yee – dystopian alternate history I've skimmed the scenarios but haven't yet studied them in depth. More maps and illustrations than in the previous monograph. In the Frozen Darkness features lots of NPCs that can go crazy in colorful ways. Company Town can best be described as Men In Black Meets Gamma World in the middle of a Bela Lugosi movie. The first three adventures are Westerns; at first I thought it was going to be a complete oater campaign book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
