Furnace is now over for another year. Once again it delivered a fantastic weekend of tabletop rpgs. The programme was full of stunning games and I was really glad to be able to offer Shadows of Esteren (The Loch Varn adventure) this year. The game was signed up for in seconds!

Thanks! I'm busy enthusing my local gamers and will be running it at Furnace too. I'd like to run the ...

I'm really looking forward to running this game. My pitch for the Furnace Games convention is below. Since then I'm being asked to run a Google+ Hangouts game of it. It's certainly garnered some interest! :) Here's my game pitch for Furnace: Loch Varn Shadows of Esteren Session 2 (Saturday afternoon...
