Hey Man, well this is Babylon

I’ve commissioned a whole mess of custom Cannibal Contagion button-pins to distribute at the upcoming PAX 2009 convention in September. The lovely lady making these buttons has shown me a lot of examples, and so far the designs are looking totally awesome. In fact, here’s a teaser, taken from my personal favorite piece of internal art.

I want to promote an article written by my friend and fellow gamer Aaron Duran. It’s about ladies, roleplaying, and my beloved home of Portland, Oregon.

Do you own one of the first-print numbered editions of Cannibal Contagion? If so, drop on by the forums and let me know!

Wanted to post about a couple of minor updates for Cannibal Contagion. First off, I realized that the Gear cards were missing a very important item: Slot Cost! The Gear Cards in the printables pack have now been properly updated to reflect this.

Also, I whipped up some simple “Survivor Cards” to be used as alternate Character Sheets. These 3×5 index card-sized printables can replace the character sheets in any game, and I’ve found they are useful for more “serious” games in which the hokey font styles of the core sheet might otherwise be distracting. They don’t have a spot for Gear, though, so I advise using the custom printables in combination with them for maximum efficiency.

As always, all downloads can be found here.

I would like to take a moment to cross-pimp my friend Jake Richmond’s new game Ocean. If it weren’t for Jake’s encouragement, Cannibal Contagion would never have come into existence, so I am more than happy to pimp his games here.

Get it here!

Aaron at Geek in the City has posted what I believe is the first-ever online review of my game.

With hyper action and frantic role-playing, Cannibal Contagion is the perfect game for the player that just wants to have some balls out undead fun.

Wow! Thanks, Aaron!
