The Emporium of Rogue Dreams - The Abdul Goldberg Challenge

Hi All,

Approximately a year ago the Facebook group, The Emporium of Rogue Dreams, ran a little competition to come up with your own Abdul Goldberg miniature. For those who don't recall, Abdul is mentioned several times in the scenario generator in the back of the book.

This was the genesis of the zine article I compiled, but I felt that I needed to do justice to all the entries, not just the ones from North America.

So here are JPGs of the pages I put together. All of the pictures and text are the property of their owners. Special thanks to Rick Priestly for taking the time to comment on each submission.

Enjoy.

  1. Thanks for putting that all together! I have seen some of those, but not all of them. Not being a facebook person I did not participate as such, but I did make an Abdul after being inspired by some of the blog entries.

      Did my link for the Abdul not work?

    3. It did, I just didn't see it. I'm now following your blog, I have no idea why I wasn't already.

  3. That was a really good read and am glad I got to see all of the entries, when before I'd seen only about half on the blogs I follow.

    Nicely laid out too Sean.

    1. Thanks Dai, glad you liked it. I had an overall idea on the layout, it of course evolved as I worked on it. I'm happy with the result.
