This issue is packed with many great features for the 4C System, including several spy-type gadgets, and cybernetic and espionage NPCs, We introduce COMBAT, an organization that wages an invisible war against terrorism, and organized crime. You get the first half of “Opening Night at the Palace,” a short piece of fiction which follows a group of battle-hardened mercenaries on their latest tour of duty. Follow that up with the gear used in the story statted up for D6 Space, as well as new character templates based on the characters in the story! Next we traipse into the wastes of a Mutant Future, and encounter three new mutants, each with a nasty surprise for the unwary adventurer. You might also pick up a new mental mutation while exploring those old ruins of the ancients! You’ll also discover new rules variants for the 4C System by Curt Meyer, and this issue’s In Review column gives you information on not one, but two products from Vigilance Press; The World Metahuman Factbook: Germany, by Charles Rice, and The World Metahuman Factbook: Australia, by Bill Browne.

Hello everyone.

If you have any access to the outside world, then you know about the recent tragedy in Haiti. The people there are going through troubles that I have never personally seen, and hope that I never do. You have also likely seen the many benefits that have been circulating around the world to raise funds for the efforts to help the Haitians through this terrible time. Well, here is another that might be of interest to most who might be reading this.

One Bookshelf (DriveThruRPG/RPGNow) has put up a bundle package of games from various publishers such as HinterWelt, TableTop Adventures, Basic Action Games, Margaret Weis Productions, Crafty Games, Keck Publishing, and many, many more. Dubbed the “Mega-Bundle,” you get over $1,000 worth of PDF downloads for a mere $20.00 donation. All proceeds from the sale of this bundle will go directly to the Doctors Without Borders association. Please, if you have an extra $20 bucks, consider dropping it on this benefit. The Haitian people will get the aid they need, and you will get tons of gaming material for your effort.

Thank you,
James F Keck

Keck Publishing announces the coming release of Side Trek Scenarios, mini-adventures or encounters that can be thrown in with published One Shot Adventures! Each Side Trek is designed to work with, or independently of, its parent One Shot. Side Treks are intended to enrich the setting of each One Shot Adventure with additional information about areas mentioned but not covered in detail.

The first Side Trek Scenario is titled The Goblins of Blood Wood, a mini-romp into a goblin lair within the Blood Wood Forest of the Days of Knights One Shot Adventure. The characters can clear out the lair, in hopes of making the forest safer for everyone who travels its trails, or simply seek out whatever treasures that may lie hidden within the dank, dark tunnels below Blood Wood. This Side Trek also introduces a new skill, Miracle Working, and several Miracles for a character with the skill to use. Also included are several new creatures that are native to Blood Wood.

The Goblins of Blood Wood will be available for download soon from DriveThruRPG and RPGNow for a low price of $4.00. Keep watching here for the latest announcements!
