  • The Equinox Vol. I No. 9
    This page is reserved for Official Pronouncements by the Chancellor of the A\A\] Persons wishing for information, assistance, further interpretation, etc., are requested to communicate with THE CHANCELLOR OF THE A\A\ c/o THE EQUINOX, 33 Avenue Studios, 76 Fulham Road South Kensingston, S.W. Telephone: 2632, KENSINGTON or to call at that address by appointment. A representative will be there to meet them. THE Chancellor of the A\ A\ wishes to warn readers of THE EQUINOX against accepting instructions in his name from an ex-Probationer, Captain J.F.C. Fuller, whose motto was “Per Ardua.” This person never advanced beyond the Degree of Probationer, never sent in a record, and has presumably neither performed practices nor obtained results. He has not, and never has had, authority to give instructions in the name of the A\ A\. THE Chancellor of the A\ A\ considers it desirable to make a brief statement of the financial position, as the time has now arrived to make an effort to spread the knowledge to the ends of the earth. The expenses of the propaganda are roughly estimated as follows— Maintenance of Temple, and service . £200 p.a. Publications . £200 p.a. Advertising, electrical expenses, etc. £200 p.a. Maintenance of an Hermitage where poor Brethren may make retirements . £200 p.a. £800 p.a. ii As in the past, the persons responsible for the movement will give the whole of their time and energy, as well as their worldy wealth, to the service of the A\ A\ Unfortunately, the sums at their disposal do not at present suffice for the contemplated advance, and the Chan- cellor consequently appeals for assistance to those who have found in the instructions of the A\ A\ a sure means to the end they sought.

  • How Doctor Doom Stole Christmas a HOLIDAY-Themed Age of Marvel RPG ADVENTURE
    How Doctor Doom Stole Christmas A HOLIDAY-Themed Age OF Marvel RPG ADVENTURE By: David White How Doctor Doom Stole christmas is a fan creation written by Ryan T. Goodman and adapted for the Edge of the Empire Roleplaying System by David White based on popular characters from Marvel comics. All images and names of characters and locations, unless expressly stated are TM & © of Marvel Comics & Subs. Used without permission. The Star Wars Edge of the Empire Roleplaying System TM belongs to LucasBooks and Fantasy Flight Games. This event is a word of fandom and is not intended to profit or infringe on the rights of Marvel Comics, LucasBooks, or Fantasy Flight Games. A FEW WORDS FROM THE “CREATOR” I put “creator” in quotes, because I actually did very little to create this adventure module. For one, the original idea is based off of Marvel’s What the-!? #10 from January 1991. It is a story titled “I’ll be Doom For Christmas” written by Scott Lobdell and John Byrne. And even still, much of the pacing, encounters, and even text in this module are directly lifted from the fan-created Marvel Heroic Roleplaying event of the same name written by Ryan T. Goodman featured on the Marvel Plot Points website. So this isn’t so much a creation as it is a bastardization of many other people’s work. With that being said, since the death of Marvel Heroic Roleplaying, I just haven’t gotten to really have too much heroic-style roleplaying adventures. Despite the combined efforts of myself and the other creators at Marvel Plot Points, the game is losing steam and dedicated players.
