I got to find and read several other blogs dedicated to gaming, while drawing in visitors to my site as well. It just kind of felt cool to be a part of something, right from the get-go. Then the network that I joined stopped [Read the article]

Don’t Touch My Dice!
Across the folding table John tossed his d20, this was an important roll. It caught on his finger and went high into the air. The die came down, hit the edge of the Player’s Handbook open in front of him, and shot across the table towards me.

Review: Fragged Empire
A concession of middle age, but I’m finally starting to warm up to space opera or, science fantasy themed RPGs. I’m still yet to delve into the major IPs. I haven’t read any RPG version of Star Wars, nor did Star Trek ever make it to my table. I’ve played Traveller twice. Admittedly, it’s taken awhile.
