Inq. of the Week: Prizes and Treasures?

April 27, 2010 by Bartoneus

This week we are not posting a new poll as part of the Inquisition, instead we are looking to solve a very terrible problem which Dave and I now have. You see…we simply have too much stuff that we want to give away on this fancy-schmancy website and we aren’t entirely sure how to do it!

Inq. of the Week: Doctor… Who?

April 19, 2010 by Dave

This weekend held one of the few must-see TV events for me: the premiere of the new season (or to some, new series) of Doctor Who here in the US. When reviewing the RPG, I mentioned how much of a fan of the more recent episodes I am. I thought David Tennant did a fantastic job, and was sad to see him go. However, I was still looking forward to seeing what the new guy would bring to the job.

Inq. of the Week: Summer Movies ’10

April 6, 2010 by Bartoneus

As it is the first week of April, and luck has it that Dave is out of town and I am writing the Inquisition, I can happily continue my yearly trend of posting an inquisition around this time asking about everyone’s favorite summer movies!

Inq. of the Week: Modifying Your Game

March 22, 2010 by Dave

During the week in which that question was asked, we ran a week of homebrew rules, some advice, and even a mini-game. I hope you enjoyed it- if you’d like to see more like that, or have any other ideas for theme weeks, let us know. And to close out the homebrew week, I ask the following question in relation…

Inq. of the Week: RPG System Showdown?

March 8, 2010 by Bartoneus

Today I’d like to touch on a subject that we’ve never directly asked before, as far as I can remember, and that subject is specifically which RPGs you are gathering around the table to play. Back in October I asked about genres and settings for RPGs, with Fantasy coming out in a massive lead with Sci-fi in second, then Modern and Horror close behind.

Inquisition of the Week: Small World

March 2, 2010 by joshx0rfz

This week’s inquisition has more to do with a late article by myself. After snowmageddon and snowpocalypse hit the east coast, I found myself playing a great deal of video games. I had a good bit of down time and so did all my friends. We were all stuck in our respective houses and still wanted to hang out with one another. This isn’t exactly a new thing to me but it did get me a bit nostalgic for the times when my friends and I really could hang out all the time and play games of various types for long stretches of time.

Inq. of the Week: A Whole Lot of Class?

February 22, 2010 by Bartoneus

Martial Power 2 comes out tomorrow, and having gotten a look at the book I am very disappointed that my current party does not have any martial classes at all out of eight players, not even through multi-classing. This has led me to wondering exactly which classes all of you are playing and as a result which classes are the most played and which don’t get that much love.

Inq. of the Week: Age of Dragons

February 16, 2010 by Dave

Last weekend, while at synDCon, I managed to get into some quick demos of the Dragon Age tabletop RPG run by Hal of Green Ronin. I left with boxed set in hand, so expect a full review coming sometime soon after I get a chance to pour over it, but suffice it to say we couldn’t help but swap some stories about playing the video game.

Inq. of the Week: Gotta Mutate ‘Em All

February 8, 2010 by Dave

While reports leaked out ahead of time, it was the D&D Experience convention where a full announcement was made about a new edition of the Gamma World RPG, based on the 4e D&D rules. During the announcement came one major surprise: they would make random “booster packs” available to supplement the mutations that happen in the radiation soaked Gamma World and the ancient technology that waits to be discovered.

Inq. of the Week: PHB3 Classes?

February 1, 2010 by Bartoneus

With D&D XP behind us now, the Battlemind class out in the open, and the Runepriest nearly confirmed it seems like a good time to look at the Player’s Handbook 3 that is coming out in March this year and figure out which class is the most hotly anticipated.
