The Forester – A Human-only Class of Eira
Looking over nearly every type of Ranger/Archer class around I find that the vast majority of them are secret spellcasters. While this isn’t a problem I find it slightly annoying that yet another non-big 4 class is just some shade of fighter/magic-user. When I think of Rangers I think more along the lines of a […]
Quick Note – Not quite your mainstream
Several months ago +Christopher Helton broke the news of the Valiant Comics And Catalyst Game Labs team-up for a new RPG. Today over at drivethrurpg the free quickstart to those rules and system have been released.
Quick Note – Moks abound mayhap?
While I own DCC I’ve never played it and haven’t read the rules for the system since the beta test. However, I am a huge Thundarr the Barbarian fan and with a name like “Crawling Under a Broken Moon” this blog and its fanzine for DCC peak my interesting. Now, where is my wallet?!

Quick Note – Neeeeerds by state
Apparently a website called Estately has ranked states according to nerd populations based on facebook likes. Not an exact science but interesting results. Where does your state fall? PA – 28. Texas, the state I want to move to is 27 … not much of an improvement.
Quick Poll – How did you play?
Was talking to my only co-worker who ever played D&D today about how we played. I am still amazed at how common mini’s were in the “olden days” before I started playing. I’ve always heard of the world and the charactes and the like existing completely in the players’ imagination and then I hear about battlemaps, […]
Quick Note – Encounters of a different color!
Playing around with tables for future things. I hope everyone enjoys! Encounter Location – The Unknown Sand Graves The unknown sand graves is a spot of land typically on a beach or in a desert that is the site of an unmarked, unremembered and unsanctified burial ground. The dead do not rest in this place […]
D’Shive’s Twisted Wand – A magic item for Swords & Wizardry
D’Shive’s Twisted Wand Thousands of years ago the twisted Elven Mage known as D’Shive looked himself away in the tunnels and catacombs beneath his tower. For decades he slaved over the magical formulae and eldritch arts that would allow him to create an item so powerful it would grant him his every twisted desire. Finally […]
Quick Note – Star Kids revisited
Last night was the second time I’ve run my Star Wars/Hero Kids mash-up. This time my daughter, Code Name: The Wife, and our friend visiting from Japan played. Given Code Name: The Wife’s general dislike of tabletop games (and generally games all around) and her love of Ewoks, I set this adventure on the Forest […]
