Cyberworld 'The Ambushers' cover art by Keith Parkinson (1994)
One of Frazettaâs most over the top paintings was his cover illustration for Michael Moorcockâs The Silver Warriors (1972), which features a sled pulled, improbably, by polar bears. At a mere glance, you can hear the [slow heavy metal music playing]. It should come as no surprise that someone made a miniature of it. In this case, Julie Guthrie, for Ral Partha (though with just three bears rather than four): 10-410 â The Bear Chariot of the Icelands (1975). My version is later and, despite the box sporting more realistic art, I find the more cartoonish box art from the earlier tenth anniversary more appealing.
Anywho, this fantastic paint job is courtesy of @7he_blindman, who just went absolutely bonkers, particularly with the shattering ice flow of the base. What you canât see (I couldnât get a satisfying photo) is that there is a passenger crouched inside the sledge, cowering in what looks like terror, which I think is a pretty apt predictor of my state should I ever be on a sled pulled by bears over a rapidly disintegrating ice sheet.
A simple and versatile weapon rocks are usually a pups first weapon. Some bulls and veterans are adept at tossing boulders.
Before they wore the giant Mesopotamian hats, the Chaos Dwarfs were more individually varied and chaotic (sculpted by Alan and Michael Perry, ad in White Dwarf 78, April 1986)
I find the "rules are toys" framing of tabletop RPG design useful for several reasons:
The idea that system matters is reducible to recognising that toys have affordances; while there is of course no "wrong" way to play with a toy, no amount of open-mindedness will readily fit a bicycle through a basketball hoop.
It puts a line under one of the main objections to the "why not just freeform it?" thing; if folks are discussing how to make or modify a toy to achieve a particular set of affordances, blundering into the conversation going "why bother with toys when you can Use Your Imagination?" is unlikely to be well received!
Sometimes it's helpful to take a step back from a critique of a particular system and ask yourself: is this set of game mechanics really broken or incomplete, or have I mistaken a bicycle for a basketball?

July 2 is World UFO Day, please enjoy my ink and pencil art for the original Delta Green
the place I work at remodeled these split gendered restrooms into âinclusive restroomsâ and never told us what they meant while construction was ongoing. I need you to know every atom of potential criticism or whining that couldâve happened disappeared when people found out this meant we got 10 fully separate private bathrooms with sinks inside. Iâve not heard a single person crack a joke about the inclusive signage. this is the world TERFs are trying to steal from you

Leader of the Pack (Chris Achilleos cover art for White Dwarf 78, April 1986; originally appeared in 1985 as the cover of The Hounds of Skaith by Leigh Brackett; later used as card #77 in the Chris Achilleos Fantasy Art Trading Cards set)
I'm always drawn to the upside-down victim beneath a wolf. The same pose appears in Pat Hidy's 1980 cover for Death Test 2.
