Are You Tingling? at Multiversecon
Quick Note: As some folks have asked questions about uploading images, I put together a PDF and attached it of how I did this image for this post. If you have questions, you can always message me on Discord. This past October (2022) I was at Multiversecon. I am the PLAY track director for MVC…

Hrunburg Gang Life: Situation or Set Piece?
Hrunburg began life, and one day may continue, as a setting for a game that I started working on back in the Forge Days. The City That Thieves is its name and it has gone through a few permutations. When this group of players wanted some D&D 5E. they asked me to create it more…

Adventures in Middle Earth 5E
There has been some recent discussion on the discord about 5E play and how it shakes out nearly ten years on. Like all D&D and its close relations, Adventures in Middle Earth has a lot of familiar parts, but I think AiME shows off what can be done with the system. Even with all the…

Stormbringer Tales: Lots of Demons, Lots of Sorcerers
We are now four sessions into Stormbringer Tales and I am satisfied with out progress. In the beginning I envisioned two sessions per “year” or episode or, what I am now calling series as if it were a BBC show. Turns out it looks like 3 sessions or six hours of play may be the…

Putting on the Patch

When the new Marvel Multiverse RPG came up and several friends and I grabbed copies of the work-in-progress (we paid for them, more on that…

A funny Thing Happened on the Way to Davokar
My local friend group got back together to play in person. We decided on Symbaroum, which I know some folks have bounced (hard) off of. Like any hard-headed gamer I of course had to make my own mind up. I am going to talk about my prep and such, but I do not want to…

Con Season Opens: virtualGROGMEET 2022
I have mentioned before that I like to run convention games and do so several times a year. The last few years have been mostly virtual, though this year I will be running games in person at least twice. However, the season has begun with virtualGROGMEET 2022. I am a fan of and listen to…

Romancing the End of The World
Stormbringer Tales is an actual play I have been trying to get off the ground for about three years now. It has had its up and downs, but an appreciation for the source material and fondness for the system (especially Chaosium’s 1st edition) has kept me motivated. However, my prep and expectations have changed over…

Empathy vs. Sanity: A Lamentations Interlude
Over at the OS/R Discord, we have been playing Lamentations of the Flame Princess through a few iterations. And if you look through any of the games at the protagonist characters, you’d be hard pressed to find anyone with any redeeming characteristics. Most have been brave in the face of monstrosity, but there are not…
