Evil Hat Productions has opened submissions for new role-playing games, with a primary focus on titles that utilize the Powered by the Apocalypse, Forged in the Dark, or Powered by Fate systems. They are specifically not publishing 5E material. The company is looking for complete or near-complete game manuscripts between 40,000 and 100,000 words that align with the Evil Hat product lines. They offer full publisher services, including editing, art direction, and public playtesting, and are seeking partners in marketing. Pitches should include a short game description, target audience, setting/tone details, mechanics, and development progress, and should be emailed to submissions@evilhat.com. Paizo has unveiled *Starfinder Galactic Ancestries*, an upcoming 224-page rulebook for *Starfinder Second Edition*, scheduled for release in April 2026 at an MSRP of $69.95. This expansion will introduce 21 brand new playable alien ancestries, such as the worlanisi, bantrid, and novian, alongside expanded options for existing Starfinder species like Vesk and Shirren. The book also provides Starfinder updates for classic fantasy ancestries including elves, gnomes, and goblins. Additionally, it features the Gap-touched versatile heritage and the xenometric android, allowing players to create robotic versions of any Starfinder alien or human. A new official Cyberpunk 2077 trading card game, titled *Cyberpunk TCG*, has been announced by CD Projekt Red and Weird Co. A hype trailer was released on December 9th, coinciding with the fifth anniversary of *Cyberpunk 2077*. The game will draw heavily on the aesthetics and characters of both *Cyberpunk 2077* and the *Cyberpunk: Edgerunners* anime, featuring Legends like Jackie Welles and Judy Alvarez, as well as V and Johnny Silverhand. Developed by a team with experience on games like *Marvel Snap* and *Universus*, the TCG is designed to be accessible to new players while offering depth for enthusiasts, with a crowdfunding campaign slated for 2026. A massive month-long sale is currently running on DriveThruRPG for the *Fallout RPG* line from Modiphius. Customers can save 33% on nearly every title, including the 438-page Core Rulebook, which uses the 2d20 cinematic roleplaying system and draws lore primarily from the Bethesda video games, particularly *Fallout 4*. The sale is an opportunity to acquire core books and expansions, such as the *Gamemaster's Toolkit*, the *Winter of Atom* campaign, or the *Wanderer's Guide Book*. Free Quickstart rules are also available for newcomers. #evilhat #starfinder #cyberpunkTCG #falloutrpg Evil Hat Game Submissions: https://evilhat.com/game-submissions/ Fallout RPG Sale: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/ja/product/366742/fallout-the-roleplaying-game-core-rulebook-pdf?affiliate_id=2081746 Free Guild Ball Starter Set: https://steamforged.com/products/guild-ball-starter-kit Warmachine on MyMiniFactory: https://mmf.io/upturned Mantic Companion App: https://companion.manticgames.com/ Use our Referral code: MCTXEE Support us by Shopping at Miniature Market (afilliate link): https://miniature-market.sjv.io/K0yj7n Support Us by Shopping on DTRPG (afilliate link): https://www.drivethrurpg.com?affiliate_id=2081746 Matt’s DriveThruRPG Publications: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Matthew%20Robinson https://substack.com/@matthewrobinson3 Chris on social media: https://hyvemynd.itch.io/​​ Abusecartoons Weekly Cartoons: http://www.abusecartoons.com/​​ https://www.twitch.tv/abusecartoons ​​Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/upturnedtable Give us a tip on our livestream: https://streamlabs.com/upturnedtabletop/tip​ Donate or give us a tip on Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/2754JZFW2QZU4 Intro song is “Chips” by KokoroNoMe https://kokoronome.bandcamp.com/

John Robinson was the last person anyone expected to become one of America's most disturbing killers. A churchgoing father, Scoutmaster, and respected Kansas City businessman, he hid a second life built on manipulation, fraud, and murder. Under his online persona, the Slavemaster, Robinson lured vulnerable women with promises of work, housing, and love, only for them to disappear without a trace.When investigators finally closed in on him in 2000, they uncovered a nightmare across two states. Barrels filled with bodies. Forged letters to families. Stolen identities. And one devastating truth: baby Heather Robinson, raised by Robinson's brother, was actually the daughter of one of his victims, Lisa Stasi.Robinson's crimes earned him the title of America's first internet serial killer. Now on death row, he has never fully revealed how many women he targeted or how far his violence went. Was he a con man who escalated into murder, or was he always a predator waiting for the internet to give him cover?

Then we swerve into something unforgettable: a Forged in Fire episode where blacksmiths harvest steel from bicycles, craft blades, and test them against bike parts. It's brutal, beautiful, and oddly inspiring for anyone who geeks out about materials, design, and durability.The centerpiece is our BRAG 2026 route-guessing contest. Here's the deal: guess each night town for the weeklong ride, score 10 points for the right town on the right night, 5 if the town is right but the night is wrong, and snag a bonus by following us on your favorite platform.

Episode 241 is pure chaos as we dive deep into the mysteries of the garage and the highly anticipated "Clear the Snow Simulator"! With Howard down sick, the crew takes over, starting with JS's spontaneous "random stuff I found in my garage" segment. A segment featuring everything from a non-functional Nerf chain gun to a leaking tractor fuel rod. Should JS start his own show called "JS's Garage of Wonders!" In "What's on Tap," JS kicks things off with a highly-rated Yingling Black and Tan, while Doc bravely samples a strong Imperial Magic Berry Cider, but its confusing flavor might tank its rating. But the main event? The intense debate over the "Clear the Snow Simulator" video game! We break down the gameplay, the co-op features, and why one of our co-hosts is now obligated to review the game for a friend. The discussion even pivots to real-life snow plowing with some hilariously suggestive analogies! Plus, Doc shares some major canceled travel plans, JS talks about their foray into blacksmithing, and we send our collective condolences to our great friend, The Midnight Rocker.   Recorded: 11.14.25 0:00 – Intro 2:03 – What's on Tap? 12:18 – Doc is Going to Sweet Home Chicago 19:22 – JS' Tries Viral Challenge 21:52 – Forged in Fire 26:38 – Howard's Final Thought 28:15 – What's on Tap?

‘Ghost in the Shell Roleplaying Game’, a collaboration between Mana Project Studio and Don't Panic Games, is based on the Production I.G. anime and Shirow Masamune manga. It is currently in the final days of its Kickstarter campaign, which has raised over $418,000, with a trade release planned for 2027. The game is set at the dawn of Section 9’s birth, specifically the Arise timeline of 2027, and utilizes a heavily modified version of the Forged in the Dark system. Its unique mechanics center around two core skill branches, Ghost (soul and mind/social and hacking) and Shell (physical prowess/gunplay and CQC), which are used for Wired Actions with six-sided dice rolls. ‘Twilight Sword RPG by 2LM’ is an adventure role-playing game being crowdfunded on BackerKit by Two Little Mice and publisher Free League. Heavily inspired by classic video games like The Legend of Zelda, Final Fantasy, and Ni No Kuni, the game is set in the world of Radia where heroes strive to bring back Hope against the scourge Vardas. The system, called Created at Twilight (CAT), is unique and d12-based, requiring players to roll under one of their eight abilities. It also incorporates a JRPG-style elemental system with a network of eight elements that interact, such as Fire beating Ice, and Thunder beating Water. The campaign has already surpassed $450,000 in its first day. ‘Daggerheart: Hope and Fear,’ the first major expansion for Critical Role's Daggerheart RPG, scheduled for release in Summer 2026. This expansion promises a substantial amount of new content, including four new classes: the Assassin, Brawler, Warlock, and Witch, each coming with two subclass options. It also provides an extensive GM's Toolkit with four new Campaign Frames, over 130 new Adversaries, and more than 100 new items. New mechanics include “transformations” like being cursed as a werewolf or vampire, and the expansion utilizes a new Dread Domain for Warlocks and Witches, alongside custom Fear tokens and a tracker for the GM.

THE WEAPONS FORGED IN YOUR CALLING! Prophetic Decree

Few journalists, certainly non-Italians, know Italian football as intimately as The Athletic' James Horncastle, co-author of The Soccer 100. For Horncastle, Italian football presents a fascinating paradox: a nation celebrated for beauty, fashion, and La Grande Bellezza built its footballing identity around winning ugly. Forged in post-war austerity, the Italians embraced a minimalist, counter-attacking style—yet their greatest defenders, Paolo Maldini and Franco Baresi, were anything but ugly players, mastering their craft with elegance and brilliance. Italy, Horncastle reminds us, has also produced a remarkable lineage of world-class goalkeepers, from Dino Zoff to Gianluigi Buffon. And despite its defensive reputation, the position Italians venerate most is the creative number 10—the fantasista embodied by Roberto Baggio, the subject of an upcoming biography by Horncastle. Then there's Maradona, the “spiritual Italian” who found his perfect home in Naples, a city with a magical realism quality that matched his unique genius. Unlike England, where football loyalties follow class lines, allegiances at Italian clubs like Roma and Lazio are drawn along political divisions—a legacy of Cold War tensions when Italy hosted Western Europe's largest communist party.

In Episode 284, I sit down with Dave Kelman. Dave and I first connected when he attended my Guns & Gis course last summer — but the story behind that connection is what makes this episode truly powerful. He came to the course to honor my fallen brother, Seth Farwell. Dave is now married to Seth's widow and is raising Seth's son, and wanting to understand the man whose footsteps he is helping guide, he sought out the people who knew Seth best. That level of humility, respect, and intention is rare. And through that shared loss, we formed a bond that led to a deep and meaningful conversation.

In this episode of MakingChips, we sit down with Charlie Hushek, President of Phoenix Heat Treating, whose family has been in the heat-Treating world for over a century. Charlie is a fifth-generation heat Treatinger—but his leadership story is anything but inherited. When he stepped into the business in 2020, he wasn't handed stability. He was handed a crisis. Within a matter of months, Phoenix Heat Treating lost its NADCAP certification—twice—suffered major operational setbacks, faced COVID turmoil, and endured the tragic loss of their general manager. For a company where more than 70% of revenue is tied to regulated aerospace work, this wasn't a stumble. It was a free fall. And it forced Charlie into leadership far earlier—and far harder—than he expected. But instead of shrinking from the challenge, Charlie transformed it into a total rebuild. He redesigned their QMS from the ground up, implemented true systems thinking, rewrote cultural standards, and introduced transparent, performance-driven practices that aligned every employee around shared values. The result? A thriving business, a revitalized culture, and a blueprint for how to rebuild a manufacturing company under extreme pressure. In this raw and energizing conversation, Charlie shares how Phoenix Heat Treatinging went from chaos to clarity, how culture becomes a competitive advantage, and what it takes to lead a team through uncertainty, fear, and burnout—and come out stronger on the other side. If you're leading a shop through change, growth, or crisis, this episode is a masterclass.

John explores the origins of Joel’s Army—a militant spiritual ideology that emerged from the strange crossroads of Pentecostalism, Christian Identity, and post-WWII fear. He traces its development from early influences like Helena Blavatsky’s esoteric teachings, New Thought metaphysics, and British Israelism to William Branham’s “spoken word” theology and Roy Davis’s ideological orphanages. The episode exposes how the Sharon Orphanage in North Battleford, Canada, became a model for youth indoctrination under the guise of revival and prophecy. John connects the rise of Joel’s Army to the political and apocalyptic climate after the atomic bomb—when fear of a coming world war fueled a militant form of faith. He explains how these doctrines laid the groundwork for movements like the Latter Rain revival and today’s New Apostolic Reformation. With historical depth and theological clarity, this episode uncovers how mysticism, nationalism, and spiritual warfare blended into a single, radical ideology that continues to shape modern charismatic movements. ______________________Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR:Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962 Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K ______________________– Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham – Visit the website: https://william-branham.org

Most men live two lives…The one everyone sees and the one they pray never gets exposed. But Proverbs 5:21 reminds us: God sees everything. Not just what you do… but who you are when no one's watching.In this episode, we expose the hidden life that weakens men, destroys integrity, and silently sabotages their marriage, leadership, and faith. And we unpack how the UNCOMMON MAN wins the private battle by surrendering every dark corner to God.Listen in, confront the truth, and start living with nothing to hide.

In this episode of the True Man Podcast, I explore how God uses our flaws, failures, and struggles to forge true greatness within us. Discover why real greatness isn't about perfection or success but about daring to step into the arena, fight with faith, and let God turn your battles into purpose.  #truemanpodcastContact Mike Van Pelt:mike@truemanlifecoaching.comhttps://www.truemanlifecoaching.com Order Mik's New Book, True Man True Ways – A Roadmap of Discovery to the Masculine Hearthttps://www.truemanlifecoaching.com/truemantrueways  Become part of the True Man Inner Circle — our weekly newsletter for men who refuse to settle. truemanlifecoaching.com/newsletter

Shazam's dark mirror: speed rivaling the Flash, strength that topples gods, and magic bolts that level cities. Vengeance eternal, wisdom ancient, and a shout that calls down the storm.The conquest ignites: alien invader versus magical monarch. Viltrumite brutality versus Kahndaqi thunder. Fists that pulp worlds versus bolts that banish titans. Can Omni-Man's savage speed "think, Adam!" into oblivion, or will Black Adam prove that no empire escapes Kahndaq's wrath?Listen now to find out....Who. Would.

Rock star Kevin Hearn of the Barenaked Ladies is doing rock star things — like buying paintings. And what better painting for an iconic Canadian rocker to buy than one by Norval Morrisseau, one of the most iconic Indigenous artists in Canada? But when Kevin's Morrisseau painting is featured in an exhibit, it gets taken down because the head curator says it's “questionable.” Kevin tries to get some answers but every answer leads to more questions. Host Adrian Stimson traces Kevin's dogged quest to find out the truth about his painting — and learns how this one painting is the key to cracking a whole underworld open. Forged is a six-part series, from CBC in Canada and ABC Australia, host Adrian Stimson, an artist from the Siksika Nation, travels from Thunder Bay to the Northern Territory of Australia, to reveal what's believed to be the largest art crime fraud in the world.
