The new Page XX is up!
In this issue, Robin D Laws discusses three ways you can resolve interpersonal conflicts in the GUMSHOE system. Interpersonal conflicts also feature in Mystic Moo's Yuletide pantomime, and Simon Carryerr eminds us of the fun of festive travel with his article on Rail Transport in the 1930s. Finally, Steve Dempsey suggests a way you can improvise adventures using GUMSHOE, perhaps while sitting in a turkey-induced stupour around the log fire.

Graham Walmsley, who wrote this article for Page XX, has just released his first solo publication, Play Unsafe. Bringing his own experience of acting and improvisation to the table, he shows how it's possible to get more out of roleplaying by spending less time in preparation and more time interacting with the other players. I'm not sure if the book is unique, but it's the only one I can think of which helps players enjoy the act of roleplaying, that is what you actually say and do at the table.

As well as her psychic skills Mystic Moo is a fine agony aunt. She is seeking questions from people who are having problems related to their roleplaying games. Please post them here.

We've just released the latest Page XX column on our webzine. Robin will be covering practical advice for the GUMSHOE system in this and many future articles. This one covers adventure structure in investigative games.
Ian Sturrock who has written a host of excellent rpg supplements will be producing a new epic adventure for the Esoterrorists background, called Albion's Ransom. It's set in the UK, but the FBI are involved.

Pelgrane Press has an irregular webzine which includes a regular column by Robin D Laws. This issue, Monte Cook gives us an exclusive article about the Ptolus city project.
There is also a new PDF written by Ian Thomson; old-fashioned tomb raiding with a Turjanesque twist in the ruins of the Old City of Kaiin.
Finally after a hiatus driven by pure sullenness at Pelgrane, the Dying Earth Quick Start rules are once again available for download.
