A dieselpunk roleplaying game of action, mystery and mad science!



Tomorrow City was one of the cities of the future, built to usher in a new age of prosperity, seizing upon scientific achievements at the dawn of the twentieth century. Then came the War. Radium-powered soldiers assembled, diesel-fuelled nightmares rolled off production lines, city fought city, and the world burned in atomic fire. We survived, barely. Tomorrow City still stands, an oil-stained beacon of hope, part-refuge, part-asylum. Beset by dangers from both within and without, a secret war now rages on its streets. Diesel-born monstrosities stalk the alleyways, air pirates strike from the wastelands, mad scientists continue their dark work, occultists manipulate the city's strange geometry, and secret societies plot in the shadows.



Tomorrow City is a roleplaying game of dark science and dieselpunk action. Swift and simple character creation and an easy-to-learn dice pool system places the emphasis on unique personalities and the momentum of the plot. Join the Underground and fight the crime and corruption at the heart of the city. Sell your dieselpunk tech, occult knowledge, and sheer grit as troubleshooters for mysterious paymasters. Hunt down spies, saboteurs, and science-run-amok. As weary sky rangers, fringe scientists, and radium-powered veterans, you might be all that stands between a better tomorrow and no tomorrow at all.


At the beginning of the Coronavirus outbreak, what was supposed to be a long-awaited homecoming becomes a desperate adventure escaping border guards and surviving on candy bars, all the while trying to avoid losing her cool with unwanted and unlikely traveling companions. On her odyssey back home through a changing world, she faces starvation, the possibility of arrest, and kidnapping, as she attempts to cross the border into Algeria by any means possible. Alternating between tense, poignant, and funny, this heartfelt first-hand account explores life and lessons from the plight of the Saharawi people. Sara's story questions the meaning of cultural heritage and the universal desire to have a homeland.


To understand the setting of this account, it is necessary to know the history of the Saharawi people and their struggle. A centuries-long struggle marked by colonialism, greed, betrayal and neglect.


The Saharawi people belong to the Bidan or White Moors ethnic group. They are nomadic tribes descended from Beni Hassan, a Yemeni Arab tribe that arrived in Saguia el-Hamra (present-day Western Sahara) in the eleventh century. Their language is Hassania, a dialect of Arabic, and their presence extends from the river Draa in southern Morocco to the Niger and Senegal river valleys. Over the centuries, this Arab tribe mixed with the Sanhaja Berbers (the first to migrate to this region in the first millennium B.C.) and Black Africans through wars, alliances and intermarriage. The Saharawi were known as the children of the clouds because of their consistent movement throughout the most inhospitable desert in the world, the Sahara, in search of water for their herds of camels and goats. These tribes, free and nomadic, were beyond the control of the Moroccan sultans, for it would have been unrealistic to force them to bow to any authority other than that of their cheikh to make them pay taxes or to meddle in their inter-tribal offensives.


In 1884, Emilio Bonelli of the Spanish Society of Africanists and Colonists initiated the colonization of what would be called the Spanish Sahara, signing treaties with coastal locals. From a photograph by Bonelli, 1885.

With no classes to attend, I have time to prepare for my trip tomorrow. I make a list of the things I have to do: buy sun cream, sunglasses and film for my camera, and give my keys to Tessa. I know that if I take them to the desert, they will either stay there or get lost on the way.


The shop assistant returns with three polarized pairs of glasses, each one uglier than the last. I tell her that they might cancel my flight to the desert tomorrow. She reacts with a worried look as if we were about to go to war.


Marie arrives as we finish our dinner, wearing white trousers, a long navy-blue coat and a scarf tied around her neck. She looks like a character from an ric Rohmer film. She enters the restaurant with a huge smile, sits down with us and we start talking about the damn virus.


It is not a long book. It is straight to the point and features four different Travis picking patterns. There are two variations for each pattern and all the patterns come with audio.


If you are keen on fingerpicking which I know nearly all of you are, then watch out for an email from me tomorrow with the link for where you can download both these eBooks (as well as another) completely free.
