Pantheon Press Blog

This weekend is another of NerdNYC's very popular Recess events; it's an all-day gaming extravaganza, with RPGs and board games alike. And Pantheon Press is going to be running TWO Fortune's Fool one-shots!

At noon, we'll be running "All the King's Men." Set in Elizabethan London, the players are a troupe of popular actors who are accused of a murder that they didn't commit. Can they discover the true killer and clear their names before they are tossed into the Tower of London?

Then, in the early evening, we've got "A Cabaret, Old Chum," a unique twice on the Fortune's Fool world that takes place in Berlin in 1929! The players are a group of intellectuals and artists who must take a stand against a movement started by a familiar mustachioed halfling from Austria. Will Fate protect you from machine guns and grenades? Probably not.

So come on out and play Fortune's Fool with us. Or any of the other great games being run at Recess this Saturday! Doors open at 11am!

It's official! Fortune's Fool is coming to stores this week in the UK! We're celebrating over here in the States with a big heaping plate of blood pudding.

PS. That's what Jay calls it when he kills a bunch of characters in a single session.

It's close to two months until GenCon! Pantheon Press is going to be there--are you?

In fact, we'll be running four games of Fortune's Fool during the con, on Friday and Saturday. Unfortunately, the tickets for those events are currently sold out, but maybe you are one of the lucky people who signed up! If so, take a look at the pregens for our adventure, "The Fairest of Them All." It's a take on the ending of Snow White, asking the question: What if Snow White was royally pissed off after waking up from her coma? It's your typical revenge story, but with dwarves!

We hope to see you in Indianapolis come August!
