The genius of D6 (and why you should try it)

I have a special place in my heart for the D6 system… To give a very brief summary, the D6 system measures attributes, skills, and equipment modifiers in a number of d6 dice. All of these dice are combined into a “Dice Pool” that is rolled for a total added value – against a set difficulty number.  That’s it. This simple system has been repeatedly [Read the article]

A "Who am I?" Quicksheet for memorable & unique characters

So I was hanging out over at Guild Master Gaming, and I saw that Daniel had posted “A Tip to Help Create Player Characters and Non-Player Characters.”  I liked the idea and whipped up a quick character trait sheet for my own games  You can hand this to players and tell them to fill it out as they desire, or you can use it for [Read the article]

I like to have a general idea of what’s going to happen or maybe a few key random tables at my fingertips, but that’s pretty much it.

3D Terrain that is 70% off...

If you know me, you know that I like 3D terrain, especially when the price is low and the awesome is high.  For the next day, the Ravenfell Core Set is 70% off (just $4.49).  To be honest, I think it’s still a great deal at full price, though.  The cool thing about Fat Dragon terrain is that you can print it out over and [Read the article]

I’ve been there too, and I’ll bet most roleplayers go through the same thing at some point in their lives. But the nice thing about roleplaying is the amount of power we have as a community and the tomes of resources [Read the article]
