A question for my Ground War players while I work on expanding the rosters: do you have any unit archetypes that are a must have in a wargame for you? Or even, what's your favorite real world type of vehicle you want to see a Vertigo version of? Think stuff like tilt-rotors or HMMWV equivalent.

Version 0.3 is now available for Vertigo: Ground War! Big highlights are QoL improvments, overhauled BVR combat, and new rules for building elements with more options and less math.

Update 0.3 is here! There's a big list of changes but the key changes are the BVR combat overhaul and changing how elements are created. Both of these changes came from quality of life upgrades. If I....

Just got home from GenCon. Had a great time, met some great people and even ran into a few that were already familiar with Vertigo. I honestly didn't expect that. Figured it would take longer for it to spread like that. #GenCon #Wargaming #TTRPG #RPG #indie

I'm going to be at GenCon next week. Just a visitor this time but maybe I'll be able to go as a vendor in the future.

Been quiet for longer than I would have liked. Day job got super busy with crunch time around a new product release, luckily that went smoothly.

Progress on Vertigo has still continued. Mostly on Ground War, adjusting scale from squads to platoons and making element customization easier.

The hard cover proof has arrived. Just need to double check everything, then I'll be giving the go ahead for the printer to start distribution.

2nd proof arrived, this time it's gloss and with all the fixes from the first. I'm thinking the matte feels more professional. Next up, hard cover.

The first print proof has arrived! Definitely have some more work to do on it, like switching to a gloss cover, but it's nice to finally hold it.

Update on physical copies: Had to change print companies but now I've got the first proof ordered! Sadly, this does mean I'll have to reformat the hardcover version since KDP doesn't offer an 8x5x11 hardcover, only 8.25x11 at the largest, but that shouldn't be too much of a delay.

I'm amused by the influx of people downloading Vertigo's Fleet Action expansion, but not the corebook. It can be played standalone, so it's not required, but interesting none the less. They'll all be happy to know I've been working on the update for that book.

I definitely chose the longest 3-5 business days to be waiting for the eProof of my book.

The most important question of the year.

What's your favorite fictional spaceship introduced in 2024?

From For All Mankind to Dune to Trek to Rebel Moon to SW and many more, the choice is yours.

Pregenerated characters are now available alongside all versions of Vertigo's corebook.

In other news, Vertigo's files have been sent to the print company. Just waiting on digital proof, then physical proof. Assuming all goes well, hard and soft cover prints of Vertigo will be available soon(TM).

Merry Christmas!

Little Vertigo update, I'm putting together a free pdf of pregen Characters to help new players get started.

Random writing tip: if the connective tissue between 2 story beats is "and then" instead of "therefore", it's possibly worth looking at again to see if that's how you really want to play it

Vertigo has a Bluesky account now and I'm going to start things off with a bang. Vertigo's corebook will be ready for full digital release this Friday! That means a paid full art PDF and an update to the free version.
