+Erik Tenkar of the most famous Tenkar’s Tavern blog will be running a Christmas season giveway this December. A lot of the OSR community, whether it be bloggers, developers or just enthusists have come together to help Erik out in that wonderful sense of Christmas spirit. Go take a look at what has come together so far […]
1. The Hobbit (1978 animated movie version) The animated Hobbit film was by far one of the gretest influences on me growing up. I was a rather aimless little kid, sure I played outside, ran around pretending to be a cop (or typically a robber) but honestly nothing interested me all that much. One summer night […]
I was reading +Chuck Thorin ‘s blog post about Fantastic Heroes & Witchery earlier today (great post by the way) and a term I have seen around various OSR, OD&D, etc. communities popped up; “FLAILSNAILS”. I have no idea of what a flailsnail is and it took a quick google search to discover the meaning of […]
This seems like a nice little use of the Pathfinder version of the D20 system. Broken Earth Player’s Guide – Pathfinder From Drivethru: Bombs fell. Billions died.

The gentleman who played her semed to have a good time through out the game with the character (if he is now reading this blog I must once again apologize for my daughter). After the game, however ,when I conducted a […]
Let us start of by saying that I spent much of last night and this morning at the hospital. My aunt is sick and we will leave it at that. However, because of my time away from home and electronics the second half of my review for Liberation of the Demon Slayer will be postponed […]
+Venger Satanis‘s Liberation of the Demon Slayer was released more than a month ago at this point and has been sitting in my pile since about 3 minutes after its release. I’ve read over the adventure more than once and have struggled a lot with how I would approach reviewing this massive work. Don’t get […]
It would seem that this coming weekend is “Teach Your Kids to Game Weekend” and being that it is such a thing, Drivethrurpg.com is having a bit of a sale on some kid friendly games. Take a look if you get a minute, not just for any potential kids you may have but for the […]
