Last weekend at my regular D&D game, one of my players asked me “where I get this stuff” while unrolling a copy of the Magma Keep battlemap. For the past few years- actually, ever since the first D&D Miniatures set came out- I’ve been collecting minis and maps to use with D&D. For some reason, […]
TV's Terminator Review
I was all set to hate this show. I didn’t think it was going to work in any way, shape, or form. I was surprised. And, most importantly, I was entertained. There was some surprisingly good writing in the show (as well as some really stupid plot holes).
YouTube of the Week: SONIC BOOM! Edition
The worst of the USA Cartoon of Street Fighter. I remember watching this when younger, but I’m pretty sure I never thought it was good.
Mining Tropes for RPG Goodness: Fighting Depression with some Deep Pression!
This is the blog’s 200th post! I’ve written a lot of stuff in the last few months, and I’ve enjoyed it immensely. Thank you one and all for giving me the continued gratification of reading these many lines! Now instead of making this a stats-laden article, I thought I’d write another post from my most […]
Inq. of the Week: Are you Ready to Rock?
Good triumphant! That’s what last week’s poll about your favorite alignment determined, with a surprising 74 people thus far weighing in. Neutral Good was the top flavor of good, since most of you hero types believe that Good should not care about Law or Chaos. Second up was the champion of individuality and freedom, Chaotic […]

Assassin's Creed: Video Let-Down
You hear about them, you see commercials and advertisements about them for months, their release dates are marked on calendars across the globe, and the keywords are getting thousands of hits daily on search engines everywhere…. Maybe you’re first in line on release day, maybe you wait it out and hear good things so you […]
My tools of the trade, Part 2
Back in October I posted about the tools and props I used in my D&D games. Well since my game is ready and good to go, I took a few more pictures of how I organize my things to have the smoothest of Crunchy game sessions. My DMing Corner: I have a recently renovated room […]
"A Band of Orcs" Wants to Encounter You
Everybody’s favorite Orcish-themed death/thrash metal band, A Band of Orcs, is holding a contest to see who can write the most brutal encounter involving a band of orcs for D&D. Check it out because the deadline is soon- January 21st. Players in my current D&D game will find that this nicely coincides with an encounter […]
The 4e OGL: Joining forces with my Nemesis
A lot of digital ink has flowed on the subject of the changes to the way the 4e OGL will be handled. I’ve chimed in on Critical Hits and Omnius’ blog about it. The debate rages on and will for some time and I don’t want to spend any more on this than needed (It’s […]
