Wildlands a Homebrew Setting and Conversion for This Is Not a Test By: Mike R
Wildlands A Homebrew Setting and Conversion for This is Not a Test By: Mike R. and Jeff S. Summary: A fantasy conversion for This Is Not a Test, the premise is that a group of inventors created a powerful device known as the Mueller Gateway. It opened a portal into a parallel and unnatural realm known as the Immaterial. They hoped to harness the power of this realm, but instead were driven mad by exposure to it. They lost control of their device, and in doing so released a plague of interdimensional horrors into an area known as the Wildlands; the region they had set up their workshop. The Empire, fighting a war in the North with the barbaric Orc hordes, has been forced to turn to mercenaries to help quell the outbreak. The Emperor himself placed a bounty on each and every creature, to be paid upon proof of death. Now Mercenary Warbands roam the Wildlands, hunting the beasts and each other. You play as one of these Warbands, and your goal is simple: Hunt creatures, stop other Warbands from doing the same, and get paid. Rule Changes: The rules are basically the same with some minor variations Term and Name Changes: Robot = Golem Mutant = Touched Primitive = Common Support Weapon = Artillery Creature = Beast Warband = Company Modern = Uncommon Relic = Curio Heavy Improvised = Improvised Great Weapon Heavy Weapon = Great Weapon Light Improvised = Improvised Hand Weapon Light Weapon = Hand Weapon Small Blade = Dagger Mauler = Halberd Slaughter Blade = Falchion Maw-Maw’s Pry Bar = The Spirit of the Knight Exemplar Bow = Short Bow Black Powder -

The Invisible War A Cracken’s Crew Web Supplement The Galactic Empire By Keith Kappel design The Galactic Empire KEITH KAPPEL How brave and self-sacrificing a hero is can only be measured by how villainous and capable their enemies are.

From the insane Ysanne to the scientific Batch, and even a certain pair of Eriadu typesetting Manufacturing security guards are featured in this supplement. RYAN BROOKS The Galactic Empire is typically the main enemy in a Star Wars RPG campaign - and so as a GM, the more options you have for web production enemies to throw at your players, the more varied and exciting RYAN BROOKS your campaign will be. The NPCs listed below are designed for use in various eras to act as obstacles or opponents (or in the case of web development an Imperial campaign, allies) of your players. There are additional RYAN BROOKS stormtrooper forces in the Blackhole Stormtroopers and Storm Commandos, designed to challenge even high level players. art direction RYAN BROOKS Ysanne Isard - Director of Imperial Intelligence interior artists Ysanne Isard has been the Director of Imperial Intelligence since RYAN BROOKS, CHRISTOPHER CHAISSON, she had her father - Armand, executed for treason.

As a creator of sound art, I wanted to know what it can do. I tried to find out about the potential field in the overlap between a political aesthetic and a political sonic, between an artis- tic activism and sonic war machines. My point of entry was Steve Goodman’s Sonic Warfare. From there, trajectories unfolded through sonic architectures into an activist philosophy in interactive art. Sonic weapon technology and contemporary sound art practices define a frame for my works. In the end, I could only hint at sonic agents for change. iii CONTENTS i thesis 1 1 introduction 3 1.1 Why sound matters (to me) . 3 1.2 Listening for “New Weapons” . 4 1.3 Sounds of War . 5 1.4 Aesthetics and Politics . 6 2 acoustic weapons 11 2.1 On “Non-lethal” Weapons (NLW) . 11 2.2 A brief history of weaponized sound . 14 2.3 Sonic Battleground Europe . 19 2.4 Civil Sonic Weapons and Counter Measures . 20 3 the art of (sonic) war 23 3.1 Advanced Hyperstition: Goodman’s work after Sonic Warfare . 23 3.2 Artistic Sonic War Machines . 26 3.3 Ultrasound Art and Micropolitics of Frequency . 31 4 the search for sound artivism 37 4.1 Art and Activism . -
5 Abkhazia: Living with Insecurity
5 Abkhazia: Living with insecurity Maxim Gvindzhiya Destroyed building in Sukhum(i) PHOTO: ANNA MATVEEVA Summary When conflict with Georgian forces broke out in August 1992, many Abkhaz were armed only with hunting rifles, though more advanced weapons were soon acquired from Russian troops, either by negotiation or unilateral seizure. The SALW used were mostly of Soviet/Russian origin. Since the conflict ended in 1993, SALW have remained widespread. The local population still feels insecure, and in such circumstances, people are reluctant to hand in their weapons. Tension is particularly high in the Gal(i) region, which lies on the de facto Abkhaz border that forms a ceasefire line with Georgia proper. The government of the unrecognised Republic of Abkhazia has had some success in regulating SALW proliferation. Legal arms sales are better controlled, and the MOI keeps a register of all individuals who possess arms. Legislation has been passed on the possession and trafficking of firearms. However, whenever tension escalates at the border, guns again become more visible in society. 2 THE CAUCASUS: ARMED AND DIVIDED · ABKHAZIA Traditional gun A close affinity with guns and pastoral gun possession, especially in the mountain culture areas, is rooted in the cultural traditions of the Abkhaz. In the past, an Abkhaz man typically provided his family with food by hunting, fishing or farming and these trad- itions remain strong. Today, coupled with the impact of the war, the Abkhaz attitude to weapons is still largely governed by tradition. Traditional Abkhaz culture stresses the importance of firearms in society, and these ideas are instilled in the Abkhaz from birth. -

Exploring New Technologies for Hunting Review and Recommendations December 2017
DRAFT 12/11/2017 EXPLORING NEW TECHNOLOGIES FOR HUNTING REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATIONS DECEMBER 2017 A white paper analyzing the history of fair chase hunting and traditional hunting ethics in North America, a framework for examining certain technologies and where they fit into the spectrum of hunting tools, techniques and tactics Wyoming Game and Fish Department Committee Members Aaron Kerr Dustin Shorma Dustin Kirsch Irah Leonetti Tara Hodges Nick Roberts Jeff Short Joe Sandrini EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Hunting equipment technology has advanced greatly over the past few decades and continues to expand at a rapid rate. This change in hunting technology has led to concerns from wildlife management professionals, the hunting public, legislators and other interested parties regarding maintenance of fair chase and ethical hunting practices. In August, 2017, a Wyoming Game and Fish Department committee was established to examine various pieces of high-tech equipment available for hunting and suggest ways to address them in relation to fair chase and ethical hunting. The committee was also tasked with looking at ways to analyze potential future technological developments within the same arena. The assembled committee discussed and outlined the history of fair chase hunting and traditional hunting ethics in North America and developed a framework for examining certain technologies and where they fit into the spectrum of hunting tools, techniques, and tactics. The framework divides fair chase into two categories for consideration, one related to an animal’s ability to avoid detection and the other concerned with the animal's ability to elude harvest if detected. The first category is subdivided into traditional and modern methods of detecting game, and the second is delineated by distances a hunter must stalk within to make a reasonable attempt at a quick and humane kill.
