Bgency Retrospective

2025

This book is a historical investigation into the government’s most disposable branch. Formed for the start of the Ten-Day War (7 July 1991) in Slovenia, its budget was among those funded with the dying throes of Cold War paranoia. Quickly this agency’s mission became to fight the secondary wars, the fringe conflicts that would come to define the Post-Soviet world. To some it was clear a B-team was needed to manage these scuffles, and the associated international tensions.

This book started as a D&D campaign run with my spy adventure prompt builder. It quickly spiraled into an idea that felt larger than the table we were sitting at. Filled with ideas from Evan Stark, David Szmit, and Chris Solada — the thought of creating a fake government agency took over every waking moment. After many nights of illustrating patches and writing back story, the book came together with a museum-esque tone.
