Recon Rifle: An extra relic for The Mutant Epoch RPG

One of the relics you’ll find in Excavator Monthly Compendium. This bad boy has a double side by side magazine bay, grenade launcher, side mounted flashlight, bipod, silencer and survival kit contained in the grip. Very rare.

A Friend Returned as a Cyborg

“Hey Joe, we thought you were dead! Where the fu- wait… something’s wrong here!”

Seeing an old friend in the barter market, but on closer inspection, realize he’s been turned into a cyborg minion of the friggin’ Mecha!

Gaswing

Also called float feeders, these liquavores use shock tendrils and gas sprays to debilitate their victims before ingesting their fluids. The float feeders primary weakness is that they can blow up when hit by gunfire.

Camping in the Ruins

This is nearly always a bad idea, and having a roaring fire and cooking meat on a stick is just asking for trouble. These must be 1st rank, newbie diggers. Graphite art from page 97 of Excavator Monthly Compendium.

Ruins of Peril

A trio of excavators search for loot in the husk of an ancient building. The writing on the old concrete says: “Biohazard warning. Automated defenses. Authorized personnel only”. Do you notice the light combat has one eye powered up?

Using Name Tags and Tent Cards at your game table.

This is a great idea for helping players

and Game Masters to learn the name and type of fellow players characters. I drew this quite awhile ago but loved penciling these folks.

Role-Playing Gamers

From an article on Creating Intriguing Player Handouts. Being able to hold physical notes, maps and clues is a huge advantage that tabletop gamers can enjoy that computer gamers usually can’t.

Society of Excavators members can download a bunch of sample handouts from our website.

Surrounded!

Adversaries Encountered, an article that discusses how a game master decides how many foes to put up against the player characters. Clearly these three excavators are doomed. No, I’m not sure what the hell these muties are… maybe moaners? Thoughts?

The Road Warrior

Mel Gibson, who I made a drink for that my crew at the old Starbucks on Robison Street in Vancouver called a ‘Mel’ . I was a huge fan of his work, but wanted to let the man sip his triple shot grande mocha in peace. Never asked for his autograph like my manager did.

Photoshop over graphite drawing for an article I wrote about serving the real Road Warrior, from page 217 of Excavator Monthly Compendium.
