De Havikmannen, bounty hunters working out of the Nieuw-België space station, have been spent to GLX-α3 to hunt down the source of numerous violent uprisings among the worker-bots in Sector A10F. Who is behind the robots running amok and why are they doing it? Also just generally a discussion of (partial) return to old formats.

The Four Generals 00.a: Meeting in the Warehouse

Four high-school friends get together not to talk about the past, but because of a desperate request from Timothy "Cap" Dwyer. Someone has placed a large bet online that his daughter is going to die before the end of the month and when you are a senator and front-runner for the upcoming presidential elections you are restricted what you can do.

The GLOW 1992: Agent Johnny Blue vs The Kid, Part 0 - the Surprise Arc [Tricube Tales]

While in the middle of moving, I played what would become the first three sessions of a unplanned The GLOW adventure. Very quickly, this adventure began to morph into an important bit of character and lore building. Realizing I had something a lot more than a one-to-few shot on my hand I started pivoting towards a fuller longer story. Before we get to the actual play, though, find out about my more limited set-up and my initial expectations of a "The GLOW 1995" before it became "The GLOW 1992: Agent Johnny Blue vs The Kid" that has been foreshadowed since early in the meta-series.
