We have been hard at work flushing out the look for RUN. Here is our Bata zombie pix. Its not finished but you can see the direction we are looking into.

We are also finished with the look for the miniature illustrations and looking into printable tiles.

The maps are still being prepared but we should see more soon.

This is the first look at some of the Hero illustrations for RUN. This illustration was inspired by our Head Cartographer.

We will keep you posted with all the latest Action news as it happens.

So while you wait here are some frosty tips to stay alive in the eventual zombie apocalypse.

Some Zombie Rules of Engagement

Do not panic.
If you panic you have already lost, or at least given your corps friends a leg up. Stay as calm as you can, you have all of your thought capabilities they do not.

Stay alert.
use the tell tall sings that zombies are afoot. Zombie moans, smell, the fleeing of small animals and children. If you see them before they see you your style-N.

Use your head.
Stay smart, all they want to do is eat you if you can think past that you got one up on them.

They can smell you.
If you think your hidden and they cant find you your good as zombie food. They can track you for miles by your dude stink. If your hiding make sure you have multiple exits or are at least behind steal doors.

Yes thats right, Gangland is now print ready! We just received our copies earlier today for publisher verification and its all good brothers. So we played like vandals hitting the mean streets.

After our first game we pulled out a giant map for an upcoming product. We made middle ages Gangland characters and used our Hardcore rules one and two for Armor & weapons and the starting character background generator.

Our Cartographer Angelo made a free running duelist, while Zack (Play tester) made a Ringleader hustler. Gangland is a modern mean streets game for D20 but with the smallest of tweaks and a big Grand Theft Esc middle ages city map, we converted it to a D&D type of game. Thats the fun with the OLG D20 system you can mix and match and find exactly what type of game you want to run.

So we hope you enjoy Gangland as much as we do. Were going to play some Modern and middle ages Gangland and relax today while we start on new endeavors tomorrow.

Way more pix to go but we are starting to see the light. Once our final edit is completed we will be shooting for a release date. In our off time we have been gaming with the Gangland Rules and it's been a riot. We have a Rookie Police game going along with a much more"Slumdog Millionaire" criminal one.

Here are some more ruffs for the book.   Then Painted over digitally. Now remember this is just at the pulmonary stages so allot more will be put in and reworked.

Special thanks to www.Morguefile.com and www.imageafter.com for Digital stock for characters and backgrounds. These wonderful sites Help fill in the digital gap between my own photography. Allowing us a much bigger digital inventory to inspire cooler digital paintings.

Normally I save this type of art for more one time needs. But illustrating a whole book this way is daunting (painting takes a wee bit longer than drawing it). So fare, we love the mood of the digital paintings. What Im showing you guys are ruffs and semi completed work. We want to save the best parts for the book. Were going over a more grittier look for the interior layout. Playing with comic book style formate and a grunge thing.
Right now we are so close to being completely finished with the written side of things. Just a few NPC's and one more big proof reading form our editor. So soon we may be listing our release dates for the Gangland Book.
