One Of These Days

This is a list of games I want to write - one of these days!

In Harm's Way: Pigboats

This is a WWII submareine game. In my opinion, a submarine crew is ideal for roleplaying in general, and the IHW mechanics in particular. I've been researching it for several years. I have a bunch of resources which will help me. I have an idea of how I want to model submarine movement. This one is extremely probable, maybe after Outremer is done.

In Harm's Way: Scum of the Earth

This is a Napoleonic Army game. As time goes on, this gets less and less likely. At one time this was a sure thing, but I may never actually do it. I think when Duty and Honor came out, my enthusiasm for the project took a nosedive.

Glorianna

Glorianna is a StarCluster game, set on an extremely high tech planet ruled by a cloned Queen. This has been in the works for years, and I have done a *lot* of background for it, even to running two campaigns on Glorianna, but my will to do it is slowly eroding away. I think I need an enthusiastic collaborator...

The Tools of Ignorance

My baseball game. I have some ideas on how to structure this. It will be a radical extension of what I am doing now - the players will create and run their own ball club, and there will be troupe play for example - into a new area. I have wanted to do this forever. The title may change, but currently I like it. The Tools of ignorance are a catcher's equipment, and the phrase is conciously ironic, as the catcher is usually the smartest guy on the team.
