Hi all! 
For the past few issues Bill and I have been announcing some of the happenings at DwD Studios. Namely our flagship product (coming soon), FrontierSpace(TM). Originally we thought this would be our first paid-for product but that's not true.  Just released, the first in a series of GM Accessories: Adventure Idea Factory! Don't be stuck for a new sci fi adventure idea again!

Picked up (ok downloaded) a copy. Everything looks good and the artwork and layout are very nice.
Sounds like a great job but where did you say we had to go?

Five bucks is not a bad deal for what's in it. Wizards charged way more for the Galactic Campaign Guide(for the now defunct SW RPG), and it had less to offer.
" 'Beware the Beast, Man, for he is the Devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport, for lust, for greed. Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him; drive him back into his jungle lair, for he is the harbinger of death."

I really like this product.

It is meant to help in those times when you really need an idea for a game, and nothing is coming to you. This should help you get your creative juices flowing. You roll to get a location for your adventure, flesh it out a little, and then figure out what the characters are going to be doing there.

It is pretty straight forward and should be able to help you in a pinch. It is geared towards Science fiction games, with spaceships and moons serving as the items you are presented with but there is no reason you couldn't work it to fit whatever setting you are playing in. That being said, there is a lot of text here that describes stuff and a GM running a space opera style game could surly benefit from it.

the bad part is, sadly, it doesn't do all the work for you. This is meant to give you a solid frame for your adventure that you can then go back and fill in the blanks on. Having used things like this in the past, i know that sometimes that just isn't going to be enough. Still this handles it better than a lot of adventure generators I've seen. Very little artwork, but what art there is, is pretty high quality

Sounds like a great job but where did you say we had to go?

Congratulations on your first product. I'll keep trying to get my latest painting done. I figured out that I simply hate painting mechanical objects (along with my aversion to painting with a mouse.) I can't do anything else on the image until I get those done (almost done) because I have limited virtual memory on my computer. I've been a letdown since I started on this image, and I'm sorry. It looks like the other guy's working well for you, though. I'm glad.
