We were very privileged to receive a promotional copy of the first Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition adventure module, entitled Keep on the Shadowfell, which comes with a small set of quick start rules as an introduction to the yet-to-be-released edition of the game. Dave and I took the opportunity to gather a group of […]
YouTube of the Week: Actione! Velocita! Goblin! Edition
Italian Spiderman. Every place I’ve seen it have said that the “full film” is being released May 22. I have no idea what it is going to be, but hey, the trailer’s funny!
I, Demon: This is getting interesting…
This is my play session log of our re-started d20 World of Darkness game (written by Monte Cook and published late last year). I’m writing in character because it allows me to explore a more narrative writing style, but I’ll pepper it with Out of Character (OOC) comments on the actual game. The main thing […]
Inq. of the Week: Fantasy Influences
Last week, we wanted to know which side of the screen you preferred to be on. 54% are multiclassed player/GMs and enjoy both. Players-only was next with 25%, and 19% were power-hungry I mean GM only. Only 1 of you responded that you don’t play, which I suppose means we know our audience! Spinning out […]
In the Grim Darkness of the Far Future there is Only Kawaii
A result of the new edition? Nope, just a heavy duty conversion and paint job that probably no one at GW expected. Hello Kitty Sisters of Battle! (via the Directory of Wonderful Things) Edit: Forgot I had this from long ago:
I, Demon: The Awakening
This series is going to be a diary-like re-telling of the d20 World of Darkness game I’ll be playing once a month. It’s going to be GMed by my buddy Franky. Way back when, we started the game but it was left aside for some time. We’re kick starting it again and this post is […]
Warhammer 40k: 5th Edition Preview
It appears that Games Workshop’s futuristic tabletop miniatures game is due for a new edition sometime this year, likely in the fall. Thanks to Warseer and The Bolter and Chainsword for this information. As with the release of 4th edition, all existing codexes will remain valid, and new codexes that are more ‘in line’ with […]
So what IS D&D anyway?
An interesting meme has seemed to pop up among those who dislike where D&D 4e headed. It’s one simple declaration: This is not D&D. I’ve touched on this idea before: in many people’s minds, there’s one definition of what a product/line IS. Whether this is determined by the original creator, the fans, or whomever happens […]
Mike Mearl’s D&D 4e Elemental Evil Campaign
Recently Mike Mearls invited people to follow his 1st ‘for fun’ D&D 4e campaign. It’s very loosely based on Gary’s Temple of Elemental Evil, it gives a very good feel of what 4e will be about and it’s all played in one hour sessions. I don’t think reading this will change anyone’s idea on 4e […]
Ten Words to Victory, Winners and Runner Ups All Together!
Well it’s done, what started as a lunch-time idea exploded in the biggest thing we ever tackled here. With the help of fellow bloggers Dave The Game and Jeff Rients we whittled down 21 pages of entries filled with several hundreds of 10 word adventure concepts. As indicated, the entries were so numerous and so […]
