On June 30, 1944, four brave souls slipped behind enemy lines in France to rescue the crew of a B-24 Liberator bomber that had been shot down by the Germans.

Private Joseph Edwards was attached to the 121^st Engineer Combat Battalion, 1^st Infantry Division, though he had been separated from his unit.  Private Mike Spikowski was with the 115^th Infantry Regiment, 29^th Infantry Division; his division had been wiped out on the beach during D-Day – he was the only survivor.  Private Daphne Simmons was a nurse connected with the 104^th Medical Battalion of the 29^th Infantry Division.  Danette Broussard was with Le Resistance, aiding the allies in Normandy.

This is their story.

I ran a game of Weird Wars (d20 Version) with friends Eric, Jacob, Joyce, and Wendy in order as a one-shot to test out the game for a review in Knights of the Dinner Table Magazine.  This game took place on February 28, 2010.

In the year 2866, four men were hired to help crew the ship Catseye on a quest to discover a huge structure beyond Known Space.  The ship’s goal: locate a new antiagathic drug to replace boosterspice.

Shea McQuiston had been a colonist and police officer.   Todd Stevenson had also formerly been a cop.  Kip Strange was a geneticist and writer.  Victor Takanawa was an engineer.  The two police officers would fill out part of the crew as security, while Strange and Takanawa would be working more closely with the scientists and crew of the Catseye.

I ran a game of Ringworld with friends Steve, Jeff, Ken, and Erik in order as a one-shot to test out the game for a review in Knights of the Dinner Table Magazine.  This game took place on December 13, 2009.  The audio recorder gave out halfway through the session, though no actual game play was lost.  Part 2 concludes the game.
