    Modules: Made to Read vs Made to Run?

    I hate, hate, hate reviews of scenarios made by those who haven't actually run through them as either a GM or a player. What comes to immediate mind are scenarios with a lot of background information the GM gets to read about but there's no suggestions for how the PCs are expected to learn it...

    Official Trailer | Star Trek: Khan

    It tasks me. The story tasks me and I shall listen. Though I chase it ‘round the Antares Maelstrom and ‘round Perdition’s fame before I give it up!

    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    Finished my elephant man. This is the first mini I’ve ever painted whose flesh looks better in the photo than it does with the naked eye.

    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    Or when you have no idea what something was supposed to be until after you've finished the project!

    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    It’s funny how difficult it is to see the details on a mini before you prime it and slap a little paint on it. I had no idea this adze was stuck in an ancient fertility figure when I bought it.

    Coming [Chaosium] Save the date! Chaosium Con USA returns to Ann Arbor MI, April 16th - 19th

    It's been a few years, I guess I have enough FMLA to take up to 12 weeks off work as I recover in an asylum.

    What was your 2nd RPG?

    AD&D. I might have played something from Palladium or even GURPs before playing AD&D.

    Funko Pop! in Trouble

    Yeah. Collect what you like. In recent years, I started collecting fossils. It started out with Megalodon teeth but I ran across a sweet trilobite a few years ago I managed to get for a song and it was on. This year I ran across the biggest Megalodon tooth I'd seen for sale and I bought it...

    Wizards of the Coast Re-Registers Dark Sun With USPTO

    Others have already said this, but people are going to scream no matter what WotC does. I can't help but think the people who have very strong feelings about Dark Sun are going to be older folk like me who don't really matter much from a demographic point of view.

    Funko Pop! in Trouble

    I think most people who own Funkos are like me in that they have one or a handful from an IP they're fans of. There are probably a few whales who have dozens or even hundreds because they love collecting them for some reason. The funny thing is there are always people who want to collect...

    Funko Pop! in Trouble

    https://rollingout.com/2025/11/08/funko-announces-concerns-companys-future/ Sales are down, their debt is high, and they're hemorrhaging money. I own exactly one Funko product and it's a Cthulhu figure that's been sitting on my desk at work for about ten years now. Occasionally a coworker...

    Wizards of the Coast Re-Registers Dark Sun With USPTO

    I kind of wonder how controversial it'd really be. Curse of Strahd had several elements you'd think would be rather controversial including genocide, human trafficking, child murder, cannibalism, domestic abuse, sexual abuse (at least hinted at), and maybe a few others I can't think of off the...
