Terra Incognita: The NAGS Society Website

Terra Incognita is a roleplaying games of exploration, intrigue, and mystery, featuring adventurer-scholars whose exploits span the late Nineteenth and early Twentieth centuries. Armed with extensive training, unpredictable technology, and unimpeachable discretion, NAGS Society Members travel to the Four Corners of the globe — exploring unknown lands, investigating mysteries, and uncovering ancient knowledge.

Terra Incognita features a customized version of Steffan O’Sullivan’s innovative Fudge system from Grey Ghost Press. You can learn more about Fudge and even download the system for free.

Night of the Living Deadwood — The good folks at Hawgleg Publishing have released some undead gunfighter-type figures in anticipation of their new rules release: Gutshot: Night of the Living Deadwood.

Metacreator — Metacreator is RPG character management software (which, alas, runes only in Windows, though the new macs can easily run Windows, so perhaps when I save up my pennies I can actually try it…). I’m particularly grateful to the folks at AlterEgo Software as they were among the first commercial supporters of Terra Incognita.

Victorian Gadgets — London’s venerable British Library is hosting an exhibition of Victorian Gadgetry. The TechRepublic website has some photos of the exhibits.

Brass Goggles — It seems that in the time the NAGS Society has been struggling to get back on the æther, the blog Brass Goggles has been going like gangbusters. Have a look at the plethora of great links from the past weeks.

Olmec Heads — When preparing your adventures set in the jungles of Mexico, you’ll no doubt require some references for creating those mysterious, gigantic Olmec heads. Micah Wright’s site has photos of them all.

Kobold’s Guide to Game Design — Veteran game designer Wolfgang Baur (he wrote the Dark•Matter setting for Alternity, back in the day, and lot more since) has compiled a collection of his game design advice under one cover — Kobold’s Guide to Game Design.

Seeds — Expeditious Retreat Press has a fairly extensive line of “Seeds” in a variety of gaming genres. These ebooks (each $1.75) consist of paragraph-long jumping off points that can spur your adventurous creativity.
