5 Dice Games
I have been working on some projects for the past week.
Pegasus Engine CORE RPG: GM Screen
I have managed to get the Press Banner Settings configured correctly, it took 4 engineers!! But they did it!
So now a four-panel Card GM Screen is available at last!
I will do variants in the future, A Sci-Fi Screen and a Supers one too! Which one would you like to see first?
But for now, I’m glad I can get this added to the outstanding Kickstarter Pack and get them sent!
This is a physical product and will be available to all Paying VIP GMD Members to spend XP to add it to their Easter Seasonal Pack for FREE & Postage FREE Worldwide. Watch out next month for the chance to add it!
Public Release
I will release the GM screen to the Public at the Games Expo this year at the end of May and then go live at www.fivedicegames.com in June for only £4.99. Including some GM Sheets too, I will add a preview close to the time.
I will look into adding my physical products to the Patreon Physical shop, I’m not sure how that works currently. But if it allows me to provide Patreon-only access then I will put it up for a discounted price I’m thinking £3.50 since you all are awesome! I will make it available to Patreons from Easter, alongside VIP Members’ access to add it to their Easter Pack for FREE by spending XP.
Cascade Update
Sarah has written up the rules after our last playtest. I am in the process of organising a design plan to make a start on this project and do a prototype playtest. We will organise some pics top show you the board game in progress!

Peacekeepers have been tasked to put an end to the human trafficking undertaken by these Alien Scum! Will your Peacekeeper Force be the first to seek who is behind the Luna citizen disappearances?
Once Strike Force has been completed I will be working on a full set of Squad stats for Alien Scum by DSM Miniatures. Who has kindly provided permission to include his miniatures as part of our Strike Force Start Box!

Featured Character
Story…
Thunda is the Azkalonian Goddess of Storms and comes from the world of LoR. She has a twin brother called Brontes. When defending Azkalon from the invading Zōdiakōs her brother was struck down and he fell dazed to the floor at the mercy of his enemies. Swooping down out of the sky, Thunda landed beside him and snatched up his Lightning Spear Stereopes, which gave him the power over lightning.
Using it she pushed back the invaders, but just as she was standing on the bridge of Azkalon which spanned across the multiverse she was struck by an energy blast.
The blast knocked Thunda from the bridge. She was powerless, stunned by the blast and unable to recover in time before she struck the barrier that protected the realm of the gods from reality.
Passing through the barrier into the multiverse of mortals she spiralled through time and space until she passed into the galaxy of the StarGuard.
It was Commodore Quantum who found her. Taking her on board, Quantum promised to help her find a way home and in return, she joined forces with the StarGuard to protect the galaxy from oppression and evil.
That was 10 years ago… A mere blink of an eye to the Azkalonian, but no path has been found for her way home.

The Story So Far…
The Intrepid arrived in the Delor system within Polarian Alliance Sector PA-01-03.
Immediately sensors started to detect ships in the vicinity. Captain Fang called for Red Alert and guns armed.
A Difficult conversation followed when they realised they were faced with a Polarian Alliance Defence Force under the command of a Polarian called Fleet Commander Kaine. Who demanded an explanation as to why the Intrepid arrived in the system in an aggressive manner.
After sending details of the Khan’in invasion of Polaris Prime they found themselves waiting. Captain Fang, informed the crew to be ready to leave the system. The Intrepid Polarian Navigator Orn Cadot notified the Captain it would be an hour before the Starfall Drives were primed for another jump.
After some time, Fleet Commander Kaine commanded Captain Fang and his first officer to attend a fleet meeting and take a position within the fleet.
The meeting had a tense atmosphere all eyes on the captain and acting first officer Covis. Kaine informed him he would be accompanying the FLeet to return to Polaris Prime and help defend the system.
Captain Fang argued against this course of action, along with Loev Covis. It seemed Fleet Commander Kaine was having none of it. Captain Eldari explained he was under direct orders from the President to continue with his given mission and it was of the utmost importance. But
Fang found that he had support from several ship captains including:
- Captain Nalavena of the Polarian Light Cruiser the PASN Siren,
- Captain Harris of the Colonial Light Cruiser PASN Braveheart,
- Lt Commander Farrel of the Colonial Frigate PASN Midwater,
- and Lt Joleti of the Yuu-Ma Courier PASN Wirecore.
Here we used an Intense Drama Scene which went very well. The players used Social Specialisations to cause Confidence Damage to the Commanding Officers supporting Kaine. So each turn Kaines Bonus Dice started to drop, allowing the Captain to reduce Kaine’s Confidence and defeat him in a battle of words! The Pegasus Engine handled this very well indeed. Players stated how exciting it was to take part. So that players who were not directly involved did not miss out, I allowed them to take on the role of supporting officers and assist in the attempt to sway Kaines decision to charge back to Polaris Prime on a suicide mission to defend the capital.
Eventually, Kaine backed down and agreed, that a scout force led by himself would head back towards Polaris Prime to discover its current situation and to seek survivors to rendezvous at Delor. He assigned several ships to defend Delor and a couple to escort the eInterpid to Colonial space.
Without further delay, the Intrepid primed her drives and prepared to jump out of the system…
