The Revolution Will Not Be Railroaded
Did you feel that? The game just changed. And unlike most revolutionary changes, this is one you will recognize at the time. Fifteen of the best minds of our generation come together in this one incredible package. For the first time ever, experts in the field of tabletop gaming...
I PAINTED SOMETHING
It’s been almost 6 months since I joined the cyclops faction. I still have no depth perception, so I started by painting something easy. Two tone ruins. Hard to screw that up. A few miniature wargamers offered me encouragement, guys who have also suffered the loss of vision in...
The Greatest Dungeon Ever Designed
This is what peak dungeon design looks like. We made this dungeon on the fly using Appendix A of the greatest RPG book ever written, and it lasted for a solid three sessions of live play. We had parties of ten, then six, then nine delve this one and...
AD&D Kits: Not 2e
To speed up the math of character creation, and in direct response to a suggestion from one of my viewers, I built two kits for first level characters. These are a little like the kits presented in B4: The Lost City. With the costs and encumbrance calculated beforehand, you...
WAR *sigh* HAMMER

The Rat King’s Tale Continues
Greetings, Rat Friends! When last we met, the Rat King had been taken under the angelic wings of angelic beings and whisked away to the gilded cage that is the sewers beneath Rome. But let’s take a look at Annette’s little adventure in the meantime. The Mad Doctor Baron...
Ryan Dunfee of Sentient Robot Games just released Anthems of War, a fantasy skirmish miniature wargame with much to recommend it. He was kind enough to ask me to whip up a couple of videos on the game, and by way of thanks sent me both the PDF and...
Undead Swarm Army
Our third army takes the field, and this time it’s all infantry. Dead infantry, that is. In the war game Dragon Rampant undead can either start the game on the table, or they can be summoned by a wizard. In addition to the figures to follow, I painted up...
Thar’s Doin’s Afoot
The #Trollopulous MegaVerse is the most interesting thing to happen to D&D in decades. Those glorious edgelording bastards in the #BROSR found a way to reinvigorate a hobby that had plateaued and they did it by taking a game everyone owns but doesn’t play and, for the first time...
