A very busy
summer comes to
a close. As
productive as we
have been,
especially with
free PDFs, the
creative
schedule for
this fall is
booked solid. We
have ongoing
work by many
authors on The
Mutant Epoch
Expansion Rules,
the 100 TME
character’s
book, Creatures
of the
Apocalypse
Bestiary, and
more One Day
Digs.
Work on
other lines
produced by
Outland Arts
include a new
set of
Handcrafted
Dungeons
(Caverns),
playtesting on a
28mm fantasy
miniatures rules
set, ongoing
feasibility talk
of 28mm pewter
mutant epoch
miniatures, and
of course the
TME novel series
continues.
Unlike
most people, my
days are 36
hours long
instead of the
standard 24.
That really
helps get all
this stuff done;
that and having
clones in the
studio.
Getting
newsletters out
more often is
something I wish
I could do, so
too, more
creative updates
on my blog and
chatting on the
TME forum. Now
that fall is
coming I'l be in
the office more
so expect
regular updates.
Let’s get to
it....
News
If you’re in the
British Columbia
zone, Danny
Seedhouse and I
will be at the
Outland Arts
booth at
Attack-X 2015,
September 11th
to 13th
in
Kamloops
BC. Although I will have
major eye
surgery two days
before so might
not be able to
do much more
than talk and
bump into
wargaming tables
as I stagger
about. Might
wear an eye
patch and
pretend to be
‘the Governor’
from the Walking
Dead series.
Come say hello
and roll up a
freak.

New
PDFs to
download
today!
We’ve released
two new
Creatures of the
Apocalypse since
our last real
newsletter, the
Chest Head by
Brandon
Goeringer and
the Talontessa,
by yours truly.
Yesterday we
released the 5th
One Day Dig:
Lilac
Towers.
Here are the
details on these
three PDFs…
Can your Dig
Team Drive them
off?
Standing nearly
three meters
tall, the
brutal, barbaric
Chest
Head is a
carnivorous
tribal humanoid.
Dreaded by
commoners and
ruin looters
alike, these
freaks are
man-eaters,
sometimes
appearing as
their usual two
headed variants,
or extra
mutated!
The Chest Head
is our 12th Free
Creature of the
Apocalypse for
The Mutant Epoch
RPG and was
written by
Brandon
Goeringer and
illustrated by
William
McAusland.
The cruel,
beautiful and
vain race of
talontessa… a
deadly, feminine
touch to the
post-apocalyptic
wastes
Depending on the
region, these
all-female
creatures are
known by
different names,
including Junk
Jezebels,
Sickle-Sues,
Hook Hussies,
Blood Brides,
Hook Girrrls and
Claw Maidens.
They are
the mortal
enemies of
skullocks,
ruthless to
slavers, prone
to robbing
travelers and
always on the
look out for a
handsome man to
either seduce or
ensnare. Tribal,
petty and
obsessed with
their looks and
social status in
their
sisterhood, the
talontessa are
unpredictable
and should only
be approached
with caution.
Yet, regardless
of their odd
ways, passions,
use of poison,
traps and moody
natures, they
can make for
great allies and
are as likely to
help excavators
as hinder them.
Unlike
any other
Creature of the
Apocalypse in
this line,
loners of this
race can also be
utilized as
player
characters and
this PDF comes
with rules for
generating such
lithe,
multi-limbed
adventurers.
The
Talontessa
is the 13th,
and temporarily
the final, free
creature of the
apocalypse. This
special addition
is 11 pages long
and includes a
d20 mutation
list,
disposition
towards
travelers table,
d100 loot table,
as well as rules
for creating
player character
talontessa and a
player handout
art only sheet.
We have more
COTA creatures
in the works but
they will be
part of a ‘for
purchase’
sourcebook which
includes all the
previous beasts
plus 6 never
before seen
mutant freaks.
Stay tuned for
that!
Come
Experience
Lilac
Towers,
it’s to die
for....
The PC
adventurers find
the pathway up
to the
mysterious ruins
while tracking
hostile skullock
and moaners.
Why would two
mutant species
who normally
hate each other
work together?
Who rules them?
What horrors,
and loot, will
be found in the
buried hotel?
Only a closer
inspection will
reveal the
truth.
Lilac
Towers
is our 5th
One Day Dig for
The Mutant Epoch
RPG and was
written by Danny
Seedhouse. In
this 15 page Pay
What You Want
product are 8
maps, 14
illustrations
and two creature
variants
including Moaner
Immortals and
Tuskers.
Your Reviews...
Please?
I know
you’re all busy
folks, but we're
working on some
sort of drive to
get reviews of
The Mutant Epoch
RPG, not just
the hub rules,
but everything
we put out
there. If you
have a free
minute or two, I
was wondering if
you could rate
the gaming
goodies you’ve
downloaded or
purchased, or
even better,
write a quick
review… even one
word.
Reviews are
better than paid
advertising for
a small press,
even less than
glowing reviews.
Reviews are
better than paid

....and best of
all is wherever
you bought or
downloaded your
TME product!
That’s it for
this issue. We
will be
returning to
more movie
links, artists
and whatnot in
the next OLA
