    Just an FYI for you folks. We've had an official email from D&D Adventurers League representatives and have updated Voltramax's article accordingly. For reference: http://www.madadventurers.com/adventurers-league-from-behind-the-screen/

    Announcing a new Game Competition!

    Not sure. Maybe we can summon Morrus to help.

    Announcing a new Game Competition!

    This sounds exactly like a contest with a prize, and not an offer of employment. Might not belong in this section.

    Fit-beards Revisited

    Hi Rel, I would be interested, given your background and experience, in hearing about ideas for 'gamifying' fitness and excercise. Beyond the general health benifits, it is often difficult to find motivation for regular and consistent excercise that is not tied to a sport or athletic game...

    12 Cheats and Their Habits

    Silent Witness is a good one. In fact, I like all the suggestions made so far. Keep 'em coming.

    12 Cheats and Their Habits

    It's nice to see some of the 'bad guys' you folks have mentioned. In particular, I hadn't considered The Team Player before, but there often is that one guy who enables the cheating of others all in the name of just trying to get along. The Storylord is good, too. Although, with the growing...

    12 Cheats and Their Habits

    12 Cheaters and how to identify them. Cheats come in all shapes and sizes in gaming. If you've played games for any length of time you've run into at least one of these cheaters at some point in your gaming career. Knowing their tactics is the first step in identifying and combating them at...

    Crispy runs TSAD!

    And of course none of them know it might be useful down the road. :) I like to see a group thinking about what they are doing, though. It'll come in handy as they go along. :)

    Very cool. I'm pleased the troll encounter went as it did and also pleased that at least someone stepped off the path in the moors.

    EN World Interview: Monte Cook and Numenera

    Monte Cook and Shanna Germain attended the first of their Ultimate Retailer Events at Astral Games in Medford, Oregon in which they talked about Numenera and answered audience questions. A video of this event will be up on EN World later this week. They were both kind enough to sit down and...

    500 Pounds of Beef – 5 Meaty Board Games for Long Weekends

    I like your suggestions tomBitonti. Though I do have to say I think Squad Leader leaves the realm of board games and heads squarely into war gaming. Nothing wrong with that, just an important distinction to make. Jhaelen, glad Origins piqued your interest. It is out of print, but with some...

    500 Pounds of Beef – 5 Meaty Board Games for Long Weekends

    I'm glad to see so many good suggestions coming up. The 18XX series is excellent and, if you are inclined to train games, I'd also suggest Age of Steam. Civ games are lots of fun as well, and in addition to the suggestions here I might also point you at a lighter version Civ building (and not...

    500 Pounds of Beef – 5 Meaty Board Games for Long Weekends

    Five Games to help while away those long weekends. It doesn't happen very often, but occasionally you are allowed an extra day of respite from your place of gainful employment. Like a phoenix you rise from the ashes of your normal five-appearances-with-occasional-filing work week and look with...

    Star Wars: Age of Rebellion Preview and Review

    As mentioned in the original post, the review was based on an editing copy. It appears, from reports received, that the Mil. Training spec has been removed from the Beta book.
