As expected, the project has spun off the rails. What started as an already ambitious plan to create a custom board, a drop-in narrative Mordheim hack with handouts and cards, and a set of miniatures to play on the table, has devolved into a much more elaborate table design with modular elements, and supplementary tables for when players go through doors, etc., as well as a dungeon synth soundtrack and artwork. I have a year to finish this. Scratch that. 11 months now. I am trying to enjoy the detours in the project without panicking. I think that the fun here is going to be in experiencing each element of creation, and really being present in it. I have a grand vision of hosting this game on my table at Dungeon Fest while the soundtrack plays - it is a glorious vision, but it's also one gaming event that I'm spending a year preparing for. The nice thing is that I can run the event repeatedly - it could be a regular event for conventions and hobby days. But if I don't enjoy...
