The next game Saul is looking forward so is Beowulf: Age of Heroes. Saul really liked the art of Jon Hodges, who did the are for The One Ring published by Cubicle 7. He started Handiwork Games to publish is projects from RPG gaming tiles to Beowulf. The main thing that sets Beowulf from other games is that this is for one GM and one player. Using the super popular 5th edition rules heavily modified for fun adventures with a single player taking the role of a heroic character to battle evil. Filled with his art the book promises to be a beautiful RPG book.

The third game discussed is Twilight 2000 a game that first saw the light of day in the 1980s by GDW. It is a crunchy game. GDW published lots of supplements such as adventures, stats for arms, vehicles and different settings. Free League the makers of Tales from the Loop, Mutant Year Zero and other great games is working on the newest edition of Twilight 2000. They are keeping the 2000 time line, and are using a modified version of their house rules that power their games.
