It’s done, our D&D campaign is over and so is my playing D&D 3.5. Sigh*… The game went exceedingly well, better than I had hoped.The players were clever enough to navigate the minefield that was a hall full of Demon Lord avatars and ambassadors and live! It went so well that we actually managed to […]
Of Judging and Other Stuff
No planned posts today as I’ll be spending the free time before tonight’s D&D game continuing the judging of the 10 word adventure contest. I got some news from Paizo and we may get more prizes as the request got sent to the marketing department (no pressure here guys!). Keep your fingers crossed. I added […]
Adventure Prep: Grand Finale, World Saved? Roll Credits!
There we are, this is going to be the last Adventure Prep post of the current campaign. A lot of things were said since that September 6th night where I pondered how to salvage a campaign that started on the wrong foot. Now I’m planning how to end it. Last game, the PCs met with […]
Chatty’s Debates: Paizo vs WotC
Let’s try something new. I’ve noticed lately that we have quite a few articulate and passionate people over here. Its also clear from the passions that rise around 4e that there is a lot to get out of our collective system. So instead of writing an opinion piece this morning, here is a question to […]
Odds and Ends
I just finished compiling the list of contest entries and I posted the whole list over here in the forums. I’m not going to write another article tonight, I’m pretty much spent. Here’s a few tidbits. On the Contest There are 96 participants in the 10 word adventure contest. I lost count after 300, but […]
Chatty on 4e: Schooled by the Old Combat School.
As I mentioned in my Retro-Stupid post, I feel that 4e is knowingly taking a step toward embracing the aspect of the early versions of the game that were fun while doing away with some of their unfun legacy (fun and unfun being completely subjective concepts; I think it is at the heart of many […]
10 Word Contest Update: We got Prizes!
Hey there everyone! Last Friday I sent some email feelers to three gaming companies to try to get some more prizes for the contest (as things were I had 1 Booster box of the Dungeons of Dread D&D mini game or a 15$ Gift Certificate for DriveThruRPG.com). Last night, Ed Healy of Kobold Quarterly answered […]
Chatty’s Review: Travel the World of Broadsword and kill stuff!
Last week I tackled a 5$ ‘pocket’ Sword & Sorcery RPG called Broadsword co-written by my good friend (that I have yet to met IRL) Jeff Meija, AKA The Evil DM. The game is part of the 1PG product line that offers low cost, pick up RPGs whose rules fit on just one page. This […]
It’s over for the Habs
I’m not even going to try to analyze the Canadiens’ performance, I’m not enough of an armchair general for that. Suffice it to say that if the Flyers managed to beat the Habs four games in a row, chances are they were better than our Home Team. Well good luck to Brière, Biron and that […]
Ookay… what do they sell again?
Found via Geeknews. As far as I can make it, Wonderhowto.com is a genuine ‘How to’ video archive (with ads)… Well no one will fault me for not meeting my PG-13 borderline R rated standards. So I ask you… how un-believable is she? I’m more inclined to believe other types of geek girls (note: That […]
