Haunting Signals
The pdf kicks off with three levels of hauntings and offer a staple of haunting-like things that happen in such areas.

Archaeology: The Card Game
During these hard economic times, it’s nice to be able to find a good little game for less than £10 and that’s exactly what Archaeology is. For just £6 you can pick this little card game up and be playing within 5 minutes, but what’s it about?
Brethren of the Crimson Altar
This instalment of the TRIBES-series is 34 pages long, 1 page front cover, 1 page blank inside of front cover, 1 page overview, 1 page editorial, 1 page ToC and SRD, 1 page introduction on how to read stat-blocks, 1 page ad and 1 page back cover. That leaves 26 pages of content.

Immersion in Games
Games, for the most part, have a theme. Many games are designed entirely around involving players in their theme.

Interview with Brandon Pelok from PK Cards

On this visit I decided to put him in the hot seat.
