My goal this year was to make Game Storm bigger and better than previous years. I hope we have accomplished this. We have a great Guest of Honor in Richard Garfield. I look forward to his visit to Portland. I would like to thank the committee for the many hours of work it took to make the convention happen. I feel blessed to be working with all of you.

Rainy Day Games Steve Jackson Games Sunriver Games Wizkids Games 6 Game Storm 8 Guest of Honor Richard Garfield Richard Garfield (born 1966) is a game designer who created the card games Magic: The Gathering, Netrunner, BattleTech, Vampire: The Eternal Struggle (originally known as 'Jyhad'), The Great Dalmuti, Star Wars Trading Card Game, and the board game Robo Rally. Magic: The Gathering is his most successful game and its development is credited with creating the collectible card game genre. Garfield designed his first game as a teenager. He had a wide range of interests, including math and language. In 1985, he received a bachelor of science degree in computer mathematics. He joined Bell Laboratories and worked there for a couple of years, but then decided to continue his education by attending the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He began designing a game called Magic: the Gathering as a student in the late 1980s. An "East Coast" group of playtesters, comprised mostly of fellow Penn students, formed around the developing game. While searching for a publisher for RoboRally, he found Peter Adkison of newly founded Wizards of the Coast. Adkison agreed to publish his board game and expressed an interest in a game like Magic that would have little setup and short games. Garfield studied under Herbert Wilf and earned a Ph.D. in combinatorial mathematics from Penn in 1993. Richard believed that game design would not offer a steady living and became a professor of mathematics at Whitman College in Walla Walla, Washington. He had previously been in contact with Magic playtesters from the west coast and his move brought him closer to them and Wizards of the Coast. Magic: The Gathering became incredibly popular after its commercial launch in 1993. Garfield left academics to join Wizards of the Coast as a full-time game designer in June 1994. Garfield was also a primary play tester for the Dungeons & Dragons 3rd edition bookset. He still sporadically contributes to Magic: The Gathering, most recently (as of 2005) as part of the design team for the 2005 expansion, Ravnica: City of Guilds. 7 Game Storm 8 Other Industry Guests Andy Collins After starting in the Organized Play department on April 1st, 1996, Andy Collins moved over to Wizards of the Coast's Roleplaying R&D in 1998. There, he worked first as an editor on Alternity and D&D products, and then as a designer for Alternity, D&D and the Star Wars RPG, until settling down into his current gig as a developer for D&D products. His long list of development credits includes Magic of Incarnum, Weapons of Legacy, Magic of Eberron, and Complete Adventurer. He also served as the lead for the D&D version 3.5 revision team. Andy is happily married to RPG designer (and fellow gaming enthusiast) Gwendolyn F.M. Kestrel. (For their wedding reception, the couple threw a three- day game convention in their home for dozens of friends.) He's been playing D&D since 1981, and currently participates in four or five ongoing campaigns--it's hard to keep track sometimes. When he's not working, gaming, or watching TV, he occasionally updates his website: www.andycollins.net. Gwendolyn Kestrel Gwendolyn F.M. Kestrel delights in her current career as a game designer, working primarily on D&D products. Current releases include Races of the Dragon and Fane of the Drow. Her varied past lives in the gaming industry include RPG freelancer on products such as d20 Past and Monster Manual III, RPG editor of Oriental Adventures and the Epic Level Handbook, and the events manager of both Origins and GenCon. Gwendolyn's non-work activities also focus on gaming. She's involved in several D&D campaigns that meet monthly or every other week. Several evenings a week, she plays City of Heroes MMORPG with her husband Andy Collins and other friends from work. In addition, she enjoys boardgames including Carcassone and Puerto Rico, card games including Wizard and Lost Cities, and party games such as Times Up and werewolf. Chris Lindsay Born in sunny California, Christopher Lindsay moved to the Northwest early in his life and has lived there ever since. Having lived in Oregon, Alaska, and now Washington, he has nearly forgotten what that great yellow orb in the sky is actually called. Currently, Christopher lives in not-so-sunny Renton, Washington. During the day, Christopher is a dutiful Wizards of the Coast employee. In the evenings he plots the destruction of Dungeons & Dragons characters everywhere. He is looking forward to the upcoming release of Complete Psionic, his first project with Wizards of the Coast.

  • Of Dice and Men the Role of Dice in Board and Table Games
    Homo Ludens 1/(2) (2010) Homo Ludens Of Dice and Men The role of dice in board and table games Jens Jahnke, Britta Stöckmann Kiel, Germany Uniwersytet im. Adama Mickiewicza w Poznaniu When it comes to games, dice belong to the oldest playthings or gambling instruments men have used to pass their time and/or make some money, and it is striking that still today it is hard to imagine the realm of board and table games1 without them. Dominions fell, Caesars were overthrown, however, the die is still rolling – but is it also still ruling? Trying to answer this question, we approach the topic from two angles, analysing !rst the historical and then the current situation. In the !rst part the authors would like to give a quick retrospection into the history of the die to highlight a few outstanding facts about dice and gambling in their sociocultural context. "e second part then will discuss the cur- rent situation on the German board game market from a more technical and functional point of view: how dice are being integrated into board and table games, and how the out- come is being received. To narrow down the !eld we will concentrate on this speci!c range and leave out dice in casino games as well as in RPGs. "e focus on German board games is due to the fact that they constitute one of the biggest board game markets worldwide and therefore provides a lot of material for the analysis, which at the same time does not exclude games from other countries.

  • Dragons Rules
    ® Supplemental Rules Welcome to the world of Diceland: Dragons. This set contains twelve new dice in four teams, and is a self-contained set ideal for up to 4 players. The four teams are Meleinn (Ice, 21 points); N’talii (Storm, 20 points); Suarani (Lava, 22 points); and Timaliik (Swamp, 23 Points). These armies are ancient sworn enemies, at least until you decide to mix and match them. Then they’re the best of friends. Game Overview Diceland® is a fast-playing dice game with elements of luck, strategy, and skill, played with armies of paper 8-sided dice. This is a supplemental rules sheet with a brief review of the basic rules and full details on the new abilities in this set. Complete rules can be found in any Diceland boxed set (we recommend Diceland: Space), or as a free download from www.diceland.com. Army Construction Players may use the four pre-built teams, or they may construct armies of up to 30 points total. If the dice are all from the same team, an army can have as many as 30+X points, where X is the value of the smallest die. The dice in Diceland: Dragons are non-unique, which means that you can use multi- ple copies of each die in your army, and multiples of the same die can be in play. Basic Gameplay The player with the smallest team (lowest total point value) decides who will go first. If the armies have the same total value, determine randomly who will go first. The first player places one die in the center of the table, in any orientation.
