Another year another Gamehole Con in the books. This one was a lot different from my first experience because I finally stepped up to Gamemaster a bunch of games. I also worked with Monte Cook games to help show people their games and teach their system. That was an awesome experience to say the least. I also got a chance to talk to Catalyst people and got some news on our 2e battle.
Eye Witness is an adventure for 2nd Edition Shadowrun. It is a wildly complicated backstory for a very straightforward adventure. The adventure surrounds a mystery where the players will be sent around to collect evidence for a fellow Shadowrunner bent on revenge. It will have the players bouncing all over Seattle and going to places they may have never even considered.

It’s been a little while since my last blog post, but that’s only because life has been full of exciting changes. While writing had to wait, I’ve been busy building tools and exploring new RPG projects. Today, I’m excited to share what I’ve been working on, give you some links to try them out, and even talk a bit about a possible rebrand for Null Sheen. Let’s dive in.
As with all things 2e, it is lacking a lot of great tools and platforms to make life easier for player and GMs a like due to when it came out and where software was at the time. I’ve made it one of my life goals to ensure that barrier is removed. To this end I have been working with some folks to create a foundry module for Shadowrun 2e. This is still VERY early in its dev cycle. It needs some dedicated player testers to continue to hammer on it and ensure it has everything one would need to call it a functioning module.
Before we get into this one. I have uploaded and hosted the old "Decker" game created by Shawn Overcash in 2001. It was then remade in Javascript in 2018 by Palparepa. You can find it here. Also I did land my first award from DriveThruRPG. Thank you everyone who supported my efforts!
As you might have imagined, I've started leaning more into 3D prints for my tabletop adventures. There is something special about laying down custom made props that just makes everything at the table feel better. As I talked about in my Benefits of Physical Props post, this is something I feel pretty strong about.
Before we get into this months topic, I wanted to tell everyone I finished my next book! It can be found here: https://legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/514075/Lone-Star-Stories-Blood-Of-The-Lamb. I’m also only 2 purchases away from getting my first Copper Badge for https://legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/484834/Lone-Star-Stories-Blood-For-Money! If you ever wanted to support me, this would be a fantastic way to do so!
Now, onto the post!
Ever since I saw the original Dwarven Forge dungeons when I was a kid, I was blown away. It was a dream of mine to run some dungeons with a perfectly to scale model with these kinds of high end models. This of course didn’t happen (Only nerds with REAL money could take a swing at such expense for such things), but now in this new beautiful age of 3D Printing. We all can have some things we never thought we could.

Double Exposure is an adventure for 2nd Edition Shadowrun. It is a very story heavy adventure that brings characters in a really unique situation that I haven’t seen in many other adventures. This adventure will put the player characters right in the middle of a new sprung up commune in the barons. What’s even wilder? This organization even seems to be actually growing sustainable food crops. They are accepting anyone with a pulse that wants a better life and is willing to work for it. Sounds too good to be true? Yeah, its Shadowrun baby, of course its fucked.
