So, Pung’s Punks are borrowing some tech from the repair lab to really put our Halloween costumes over the top—Expedition to Barrier Peaks IRL, baby! (Bobbo lost a bet and will be a Vegepygmy.) If you’re in the Freesboro area on the 31st, stop by the Smoke, prepared to be devastated by costume contest-winning awesome.

In other news, we’ve come up with a completely innovative way of handling random monster encounters—cockroaches. (Not as gross as you’d think! And if you can’t beat ‘em…) Here’s how it works: you place one roach in the maze, and whenever it runs into the party’s miniatures, there’s a battle. I’ve even recently been altering the probability of encounters by putting a small piece of food or a pesticide tablet with the minis to attract or ward off the roaches.
You can use that idea if you want, just make sure your maze is sealed up on the edges. I’ll try to post some pictures of an “Encounter.â€

Edit - I was cleaning up after game and was doing one last run through of the conference room we use when I saw this:
Glowing roaches! It looks like they've have somehow been exposed to the power source for the beta chamber. I'll have to let maintenance know about that tomorrow...
