Month: August 2013

During the 16th year of the reign of Emperor Tiberius, a great star fell from the heavens which brought death to the living and life to the dead. Emperor Caligula created a wall made of milecastles and men to stand between the Empire and the Undead Hordes of the East. You are stationed at one…

This post isn’t so much a post about Wellstone City as a commentary on it. Wellstone City is a violent, crazy place. It’s meant to be a warzone that the characters can have some fun in given the constraints of an adventure, and that the players can blow some steam off in. I mean, come…

One of the biggest (and most daunting) tasks for me was deciding which system I was going to learn. There are so many, they all have their little quirks and differences and some have major differences… many of which I don’t even know to ask about yet! I like my choices to be well thought…

August 10th, 2013 is National S’mores day! In honor of the day, we have something pretty sweet! A freebie! Deep in the bonfire pits of Camp Wicakini, decades of campers creating S’mores created a mass of confectionary disaster as thousands, maybe even millions, of marshmallows were roasted, falling into the bonfires.

There’s a ton of stuff to talk about today, so let’s just dive in! Releases! We’ve been on it this past couple of weeks and we just had a release, Djinn of the Deep that we did for Æther or for Savage Worlds! It was released just in time for Shark Week on Discovery Channel…

Now that I’ve decided to do this, I hit my first stumbling block pretty hard. How do I find people to game with? From what I understand…that’s pretty important. Some advice I received was that it’s important to know that when you start off, you may want to find an established group that one or…

Gamers are an interesting group. The stereotypical gamer is going by the way-side…I’m not going to get rude and describe them, but you know what I mean. The demographics are changing before our eyes, and a lot of people are starting to role-play now that you would never suspect are doing it. The age demographic…

The Djinn of the Deep has been Unleashed! The newest adventure, hot off the electronic press from Silver Gryphon Games, the Djinn of the Deep has been released! Get into this pulp adventure set in 1923, see what’s in store for your pirate PCs in the Arabian Sea, and survive! Inspired by Discovery Channel’s Shark…

Well, we’ve got some big announcements this week! Not all of them are what we like to announce, but here goes! First of all, Ben is continuing to work on the website. If you haven’t been here for a while, you can see the top bar has been redesigned, but the whole thing has been…
