- [Cross Planes] More Weird War Stories... May 24, 2013My first post for this blog involved a WWII and DnD 4E mash-up I call Weird War Stories.

- [JP On Gaming] A Savage Weekend: Thanksgaming + CityWide Game Event May 24, 2013It's been a week already since it happened, but Thanksgaming was AWESOME. Those who missed it really missed a fun event with awesome GMs. And really awesome prizes for charity. I was scheduled to run NeoExodus in the morning, but my slot didn't go off. I had a few people who wanted to play, but it didn't happen. So I jumped into Liam-S's […]
- [Greyhawk Grognard] Thoughts on Dragonspear Castle May 24, 2013So the announcement about the first D&D Next adventure, Ghosts of Dragonspear Castle, has hit the blogs, and there is a bit of buzz going on around it. They also seem to be cementing their relationship with Forbes, with a spiffy article all about it.Erik Tenkar isn't pleased (to say the least) that it's being offered as a GenCon-only offering. […]

- [The Other Side] Castles and Crusades: Liath and Bodhmall May 24, 2013I want to wrap-up my week on Castles & Crusades with a post of two of my favorite characters of Irish Myth. Liath Luachra & Bodhmall the Druidess.One of my favorite stories is that of Fionn mac Cumhail. I used him as character in the very first Buffy RPG adventure The Dark Druid. The back ground of the adventure had Fionn coming to the 21st century […]
