    Modiphius release These Are The Voyages Volume 1 for Star Trek Adventures

    Agreed. Firefly released new rules and additional character creation stuff in subsequent episode books, and it means that to a new GM they feel the need to pick up at least two of the books in addition to the main core book in order to "properly" run the game, even if they have no intention of...

    A Money Back Guarantee with Kickstarter projects: Are you interested?

    I would expect the same thing if I were in a retail store. As I say though, KS is not a retail store, its a site for idea development where you're "backing" someone to achieve something, not buying. I mean the clue is even there in its terminology - you're a backer. Don't get me wrong, if I saw...

    A Money Back Guarantee with Kickstarter projects: Are you interested?

    Thats still not the point of Kickstarter. You're funding the project, not outright buying a completed item (it just happens to be thats the most logical return a creator can offer) - if you're not happy with it or it wasn't how you imagined, its not fair to then expect the developer to generate...

    One time while working IT...

    I had one user really wind me up years back. The company used Lotus Notes for their email (a nightmare story in itself) and something had corrupted her client. When I was unable to fix it straight away she insisted that my predecessor would have had this done in seconds, why was I being so slow...

    Secret Santicore Submissions for 2015

    Apologies if this is the wrong section, seeing as Santicore applies to quite a few RPGs I figured it'd be best for here! Santicore 2015 Submissions The Santicore 2015 submissions are open till next Friday. For those not in the know, this is a big community thingy where you ask Santicore for...

    If you like RPG, surely you've seen The Gamers movies. Right?

    The horror bit took me by surprise completely but yeah, that ending... :( Don't get your hopes up - I recommend it as a "This is so bad its funny" kind of RPG themed film. It was apparently the top grossing film in Iceland one year which, after seeing it, makes me wonder about the quality of...

    Witcher movie coming! Yah! er...yah?

    Considering Poland view the Witcher series as something of national pride and coupled with the success of W3 I guess it was inevitable. Its a shame that CD Projekt Red aren't involved though, they could have given some great input in direction. I'll watch it when it comes out either way. Least...

    Remember, Remember, The Fifth Of November... Politics & Intrigue in RPGs

    Currently running A Red and Pleasant Land, its non-stop politics hidden behind a layer of random whimsical moments and jam. In the most recent session the players have begun a plan to assassinate one of the Red King's Brides and replace her with one of the players so that she may act as a proxy...

    Dice Questions?

    I love the look of the LittleCLUUs dice but I couldn't justify the cost, hope I get a chance to pick some up at a later date. :(

    If you like RPG, surely you've seen The Gamers movies. Right?

    I've tried watching three of them, found them all pretty "meh". Not completely dreadful, but I'd never recommend them to anyone. From my own experiences, all my friends have heard about The Gamers but generally have a similar opinion too. If I do decide to recommend RPG themed films to people...

    White Wolf Bought By Paradox

    Linky for those not read it. I'm still trying to stop letting my mind wander about the possibilities but.... I really hope we're closer to seeing a "Kindred: The Embraced" reboot/continuation.

    White Wolf Bought By Paradox

    The White Wolf website states similar too, be great to actually get some more concrete info. I'd hope that, especially considering the amount of money involved, Paradox had spent some time planning this before going public. Im trying personally to avoid speculating too much but its hard not to!

    [Nov 2015] What Are You Reading

    I've got a few on the go at the moment; Godwalker by Greg Stolze, fairly decent read set in the Unknown Armies universe. The Atrocity Archives by Charles Stross, aka The Laundry Files. Finding it a bit tedious but maybe I'm not giving it enough time to get into it. Dracula: The Modern...

    Firefly Role-Playing Game

    4 out of 5 rating for Firefly Role-Playing Game I was sold by the fact it was Firefly and the Cortex Plus engine does wonders for helping players capture the feel of the show. Ran a total of two seasons and several one-offs, its one of my go-to games. Some newcomers may struggle to get their...
