New Releases by Ian Warner

When you were a kid, if someone told you that you would grow up and have an average life, you would be upset. You had dreams when you were younger, but as you got older, you believed the whispers that told you that you needed to be safe and realistic. You started to settle, and before you know it, everything around you was average and far from what you dreamed. To be allergic is to develop a strong dislike for something because you don''t like it or because it''s harmful. Being average is something you should not like, but it''s also dangerous for you. It means you are leaving talent and potential unused. Average also means that you are not living with a purpose. All of that changes now! In Allergic to Average, author Ian Warner walks you through how he found out he was Allergic to Peanuts in high school. As he adjusted to this new reality, he had to deal with many ups and downs and outright scary moments. As he was learning about his new Allergy, he was also the discovery that he was allergic to average. As he tells these stories, he gives you practical stories that you can relate to, and that helps you to spot where in your life you have chosen to settle. He also gives practical advice on what you can do to move away from average.

This Game is a very obvious parody of the worst of comic and geek culture clichés around and is not meant to be taken seriously. The Core Rulebook for Whore''s Blade Heroics provides all the rules you need to play through the incredible, action packed struggles of high kicking Superladies in the Kittiwake Comics World or any other super-powered Universe. Whether you''re a Hero, a Villain or Something in Between, you had best be prepared for an epic clash of super stockinged titans.

Language is always evolving and in the decadent 18th Century it became a matter of life and death for the underclasses. This sourcebook not only provides a full dictionary of the criminal code slang known as Canting but also discuses the evolution of language and society in this tempestuous age of change.

Three alternative settings for Courtesans including Gothic Horror, Fantasy and Science Fiction. Ian Warner once again shows his joy in all the horrible clichés of Roleplaying games in this sexy and seditious best-seller. Requires Courtesans: A Roleplaying Game of Sex and Society to use.

The first of the History Farce Series sends you back to the time of the Bloody Code. With over 200 crimes carrying the death penalty the players take on the roles of the Defence and Prosecution Barristers and their various allies as they fight for what they see as justice whether they''re getting a guilty crook off or hanging an innocent one.

There has always been a special class of women who defy conventional morality and family structures in order to achieve power beyond any "legitimate" bride. These are the Courtesans. More than mere common strumpets they are courted as much for their razor sharp wits, minds and sporting skill as much as for sex. Set primarily in the golden age of the English Courtesan between the Restoration and the early 20th Centuries, Courtesans offers a unique political and adversarial Roleplaying experience like no other.

Not all women could afford the class of the Courtesan. This game is about these unfortunates. Struggling to survive by whoring, thieving and even killing they are constantly at odds with the state, the church and society at large. Ironically it is the money extorted out of their Bawds that BUILT society at large. Doxy is the most traditional of the History Farce games with a full Combat system as well as variations on the evocative mental and social mechanics of the other two games but it is also the least forgiving and most startlingly fatalistic.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS GAME IS A SATIRE OF CERTAIN WARGAMES AND EXTREME SOCIAL AND GENDER POLITICS AND IS NOT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY! Truly a Wargame like no other... Whore''s Blade 20,000 puts its players through the Grimdark Meatgrinder of the 21s Milennium An insane dictatorship in constant upheaval: The Empire of Woman needs your help... It''s time to decide on your loyalties missy!
