Description

Here is the first of several interviews that I was lucky enough to get at GenCon. I had the pleasure of playing a session of 'Godsend Agenda' last GenCon with my fellow AGC co-hosts, Mark and Chris, as well as some of the rest of the Rolemonkeys, and the guys from The Gamemaster Show. <br /><br />This year, Jerry brings us Hellas: Worlds of Sun and Stone. It's an awesome looking game with a deceptively simple mechanic that can handle anything. <br /><br />Also at the booth was Andy Kitkowski - selling Maid the Roleplaying Game - the first Japanese RPG to be translated and released in English.<br /><br />There's a special mystery guest too at the booth! ;)<br /><br />A GenCon story about Jerry - he is such a wonderful guy - there was a little girl with her Mom looking for some Bella Sara cards, and Jerry left his booth, and went hunting for cards - found some - and then went looking for them to make sure they got the cards. <br /><br />Enjoy the interview - and watch for the review of (at least) the QuickStart of Hellas! <br /><br /><br />An Amazoran at the booth - Yes, an Amazoran, not a Drow, not a Twi'lek, and most definitely NOT a Smurf...<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_thU7hvvx0OE/SK5FfzKSM8I/AAAAAAAAAAk/4F9JM05Y1mU/s1600-h/hellas1.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_thU7hvvx0OE/SK5FfzKSM8I/AAAAAAAAAAk/4F9JM05Y1mU/s320/hellas1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5237199829290070978" /></a><br /><br /><br />Mick and I took some pics outside the Convention Hall - as she slays the beast!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_thU7hvvx0OE/SK5FuzOml-I/AAAAAAAAAAs/HbrsVmGhPQw/s1600-h/hellas2.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_thU7hvvx0OE/SK5FuzOml-I/AAAAAAAAAAs/HbrsVmGhPQw/s320/hellas2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5237200087006222306" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />Links:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.hellasrpg.com ">Hellas: Worlds of Sun and Stone</a> <br /><a href="http://www.godsendagenda.com/">Godsend Agenda</a><br /><a href="http://www.story-games.com/forums/comments.php?DiscussionID=7258">Maid RPG - a forum post about the game by Andy</a><br />Some of Jerry's inspiration came from <a href="http://www.morriganrpg.com/gm-talislanta.html">Talislanta</a><br /><a href="http://www.agcpodcast.info/">All Games Considered</a><br /><a href="http://www.rolemonkeys.info/">The Rolemonkeys</a><br /><a href="http://thegamemastershow.com/">The Gamemaster Show</a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://media.libsyn.com/media/secretlife/hellas_gencon08.mp3">Download Episode</a><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">You can email us at:</span><br /><br />[email protected]<br />[email protected]<br />[email protected]<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" >Intro music is "Made of Fiction" by Anemo located on <a href="http://music.podshow.com/">PodShow Podsafe Music Network</a>.<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">End theme is "Jedi Girl" by T.
