I watched the third and final episode of Penitence on Warhammer TV. It's a story about the Adepta Sororitas of the Order of the Sacred Rose, and this is my review of it. I'm avoiding spoilers, but it is Warhammer 40,000, after all, and in case you hadn't heard, it's the original grim dark settin...
Apparently a company called Rebellion Unplugged has purchased the name Tunnels & Trolls and is raising funds on Kickstarter for a brand new edition of the world's second-oldest tabletop RPG. As I recall, I was introduced to Tunnels & Trolls on a Free RPG Day back in 2007-ish, and quickly adopt...
Sometimes dreams do come true. When I first got Liber Mechanicum for Horus Heresy: Age of Darkness, I was most intrigued by the entry for the Arcuitor Magisterium. Many units in Horus Heresy don't have official models, which is refreshing on one hand because it means you get to use your imaginat...
This is my review of chapter 8: Monsters of the Labyrinth of Kobold Press's Labyrinth Worldbook, a planar setting for Tales of the Valiant (or any DnD 5e variant). As with spells and gods, it's hard to go wrong with a chapter full of monsters, and this chapter does not disappoint. Better yet,...
The Labyrinth Worldbook is Kobold Press's planar setting for Tales of the Valiant or any DnD 5e variant. This is my review of chapter 7: Running Labyrinth Campaigns. There's some very good stuff in this chapter, and not a bit of it belongs in the seventh chapter or in a chapter called Running...
I watched the second episode in Penitence on Warhammer TV, a show about the Adepta Sororitas of the Order of the Sacred Rose. This is my review of it, with only minor spoilers, most of which we got from the early trailers of the show.
This episode starts where the previous one left off, with the...
I love a good battle mat, with nice evocative artwork that tells a story all its own, while making it seem like you've got a top-down view of the world. I own several battle mats, in various forms, but the one thing I've been looking for is an all-purpose dungeon map I can use in one-shot games or i...
A new show's out on Warhammer TV, and it's all about the Adepta Sororitas in the Order of the Sacred Rose. Oh, and Orks. It's called Penitence and I've started watching it this week. This is my review of episode 1, with only minor spoilers.
Thesion IV is presumably a planet that was once under I...
I've been reading through the Call of Cthulhu adventure collection Mansions of Madness, Volume 1: Behind Closed Doors, and this is my review of the third scenario, called The Code. I also reviewed the first scenario, Mister Corbitt and the second, The Crack'd and Crook'd Manse. There are n...
The Labyrinth Worldbook is Kobold Press's planar setting for Tales of the Valiant or any DnD 5e variant. This is my review of chapter 6: Pantheon of the Labyrinth.
Like magic, I personally don't think you can ever have too many gods in a fantasy setting. I was always fascinated by mythology...
I enjoy Call of Cthulhu and I enjoy the Mansions of Madness board game, so I finally bought the Call of Cthulhu adventure collection called Mansions of Madness, Volume 1: Behind Closed Doors. I've run all of these adventures at least once, and this is my review of the first scenario, called...
I bought the Call of Cthulhu adventure collection Mansions of Madness, Volume 1: Behind Closed Doors, and this is my review of the second scenario, called The Crack'd and Crook'd Manse. I also reviewed the first scenario, Mister Corbitt. I'm avoiding spoilers beyond what you'd read in the in...
The Labyrinth Worldbook by Kobold Press is a source book for Tales of the Valiant or any DnD 5e variant. This is my review of chapter 5: Magic, Spells, and Mysteries.
The first section of the chapter adds a bunch of vehicles to the game. That seems out of place, and I don't know why they did...
The Labyrinth Worldbook by Kobold Press is a source book for Tales of the Valiant or any DnD 5e variant. This is my review of chapter 4: Heroes of the Labyrinth. It's the player options chapter.
As I write this, I'm just starting up a Labyrinth Adventures campaign with one of my gaming gro...
The Labyrinth Worldbook by Kobold Press is a source book for Tales of the Valiant or any DnD 5e variant. This is my review of chapter 3: Factions of the Labyrinth.
First, let's talk about the Loxodon in the room. When Guildmaster's Guide to Ravnica was released for 5th edition D&D, it acci...
I backed the Battletech Mercenaries Kickstarter and have [at long last] received the box and add-ons. The box, as sold on the shelf, contains 8 mechs and 4 support vehicles. Because I was a backer, I also got a few bonus support vehicles (some tanks and airplanes), a nice collector coin (which I u...
