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...
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...
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.

Chapter 2 contains information about the major "worlds" of the Labyrinth, including the hub city known as The Smithy. Well, the na...
A few months ago, one of the players in my Sunday night DnD game couldn't make it to the game Normally we'd play any way, but the characters are all very high level and we were nearing the endgame, so we decided not to play without her. Instead, we played HeroQuest with the intent to see how much...
Now that Rings of Power is available on TVNZ streaming, I've finally started watching the show. To my great surprise, I thoroughly enjoyed the first season. This is my review of the show in general, with no major spoilers beyond what you'd see in a trailer.
I confess to having a weird relationsh...
I applied for a community grant from an organisation called Creative Communities to run a free miniature painting workshop. As the name of the organisation suggests, it's a grant specifically to foster creativity in your community, and luckily the committee agreed with me that the admittedly niche...
One of my all-time favourite monsters is lizard people. They're classic villains, deceptive and insidious, deathly fatalistic, and they fit neatly into fantasy, modern settings, and sci-fi. For that reason, it's no surprise that when I was in the market for an alien army to add to my roleplaying and...
For many people, there was a singular gateway into the tabletop roleplaying hobby. Regardless of whether you started tabletop roleplaying games after playing a solo game book, a cRPG, as a graduation from board games, after watching live plays, or by being inducted into somebody's gaming group, it a...
Well I bought the Raumjager Infantry kit from Wargames Atlantic. They're soldiers with ill-fitting trousers and jackets, stunted guns, and awkward poses. This is my review of the product.
There's no easy way to say this, but I dislike this model kit. I bought it because I needed a bunch of raide...
For some RPG players, the concept of building a character seems like an unecessary chore. Sometimes I agree, and I happily admit to a healthy appreciation of pre-generated characters. Because pregenerated characters are possible, some people might wonder why they would ever bother building a chara...
I was looking for some sci-fi soldiers for a game of Space Station Zero, and I stumbled upon Wargames Atlantic. They had a shipping centre nearby, so I decided to give them a try. The closest thing to generic sci-fi soldiers I could find, at the time, was their Iron Core product line, which then...
Imagine everything you think you knew about the cosmos was wrong. Forget what you've learnt from the Forgotten Realms, or from Planescape, or Pathfinder, or Midgard. The Labyrinth can be your new reality.

I've been running a Tales of the Valiant game for about a year, and it's been a lot of fun. I've thrown all kinds of surprises at the group, and they've certainly surprised me in return. As many of my RPG campaigns are, this one has been a highly unfocused one, with most of my hints at a plot goin...
