    RPG CROWDFUNDING NEWS – OSRIC 3, Cloud Empress, ShadowWest, and more

    TMNT & Other Strangeness was my gateway RPG into the hobby. I've been enjoying the Mutants In the Now series as a new take on the concept. Really need to run off some character sheets and roll up some mutants soon.

    Mutants and Masterminds 3e

    Mutants & Masterminds is my personal favorite Superhero RPG. I've played more 2nd edition than 3rd but I have the books for both. I find the game runs really well and gives good super hero vibes. The main issue I run into with my groups is the normal one I see with point buy systems. The players...

    Running Mongoose Publishing: An Interview with Matthew Sprange

    Great interview! I wish more executives both inside & outside of the gaming industry realized that bit about if you pay your staff more your company performs better. I've been enjoying Mongoose's paranoia releases over the last couple of editions. Just recently started getting into their...

    Greatest Fantasy Wizards?

    Not the nicest bunch but certainly great in terms of power include The Dominator, The Lady, & the Taken/ten who were taken from The Black Company.

    RPG Crowdfunding News – Evolved, Eldritch Automata, D/D/D/D, and more

    I'm very excited for Evolved. DCC system gonzo weirdness mixed with superpowers & time travel sounds like great fun to me.

    D&D 1E PoD Reprints

    I really wish they'd make it possible to choose between hard & soft cover options for most of the books in general. Also wish they'd roll out POD versions for the many titles that remain PDF only at this time.

    Your Favorite Weird Game- Time To Talk About the Weirdest RPGs You Know!

    Underground was an extremely interesting game to be sure. It was definitely cyberpunk influenced with a 15 minutes into the future setting with genetically engineered super powers standing in for the cybernetic enhancements. The art style reminded me of Liquid Television off of old MTV meets...

    What table rules do you have? The Social Contract

    My current gaming group is at this point made up of friends who have been gaming together for anywhere from several years to a couple of decades depending on the indivdual in question. With this group there is an established level of trust & understanding that few table rules are necessary. The...

    Wizard's Duels

    Dungeon Crawl Classics has rules specifically for Spell Duels. I've made use of them in every campaign I've run to date. The best moments are when two casters tie on their check and a Phologiston disturbance is triggered by the interaction of their spells. I've had wizards moving in superspeed...
