A couple of neat things happening here at the Ole' Brannan Family Game Dungeon this week.
My kids are missing their weekly D&D games in this quarantine time so tonight they will be running a D&D game over Roll20. We took the plunge and bought a Pro account. We will see how it will go. If they like it I might even try it myself.
So while they are using new tech to run an "old" game. I just a new copy of an old game.
My friend Greg heard I no longer had my copy of the original FASA Trek game. Lost in one of my moves between college and grad school I am sure. So here is what he sent me.
So looking forward to this!
I am thinking I might have to recreate two of my earliest characters, Dr. Scott Elders, CMO and genetics expert, and his "Nurse" Friday who is, in reality, one of his experiments/creations.
They were created after a 1982 double shot of "Wrath of Khan" and the augments and reading "Friday" by Robert A. Heinlein. I guess this fits in with the "old-new" theme as well. This is a 1982 book about the 21st Century. A Balkanized North America doesn't sound as improbable as it did then.
One of my favorite Michael Whelan covers.
