    Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

    This flame drake from Bones 6 was an exercise in painting over translucent plastic, which I am still trying to get the hang of:

    Was thinking the same thing - love the elevator pitch!

    The Legend of Vox Machina Renewed for Fourth Season

    I like both. I agree that the characters are more unique in the Mighty Nein, and more archetypal in Vox Machina. However, I like the way the campaign is structured into more distinct story arcs in camapign 1. Campaign 2 starts that way but by the end evolved into this long arc that took forever...

    The Legend of Vox Machina Renewed for Fourth Season

    Are we talking about ? Because if so, that was a very conscious choice by Mercer. Maybe we are discussing someone else?

    The Legend of Vox Machina Renewed for Fourth Season

    She could skip it. I've never seen the film The Road because the book was too intense for me. There's no shame in it.

    Spoilers Daredevil: Born Again (Spoilers)

    Eh, the MCU mostly pretends the Blip never happened, except when it is needed for a plot point. Even the name for it: "the Blip." Because half of all life being wiped out for five years and then suddenly returning instantly is just a minor thing. Not to mention the untold millions who would...

    D&D General Eastern Dragons in 5e

    Yeah making fun of folks with autism is pretty funny. I'm sure my son sees the humour.

    D&D General WizKids Issues Refund for Baldur’s Gate 3 Character Boxed Set

    More expensive but still relatively cheap: thin disc-shaped magnets are easy enough to find and have the added bonus of adhering to terrain trays such as the ones sold by DF, or any battle mat placed over a cookie sheet.

    Daggerheart Review: The Duality of Robust Combat Mechanics and Freeform Narrative

    Most of my players are fairly slow with head maths; it's fine. I think a lot of folks who are hardcore gamers are unusually good at doing math in their head and so they assume that it's normal or there's something wrong with folks who are slower. One solution for Daggerheart could be to run it...

    D&D General WizKids Issues Refund for Baldur’s Gate 3 Character Boxed Set

    Pre-painted minis were a lot more affordable on the singles market until a few years ago, as long as you weren't chasing rare ones. However, a lot of those sources have dried up in recent years (Troll and Toad used to be my go-to), and those that have remained are much more expensive. In general...

    D&D 5E Convince me that the Ranger is a necessary Class.

    Ranger could be a rogue subclass, barbarian a fighter subclass, Druid a cleric subclass, and sorcerer a wizard subclass and the game would be better for it IMO. But, tradition.

    Our Physical Fitness

    My intercostal muscle injury is healed enough that my physio guy okayed me to start lifting a bit heavier this week. I’m very weak. Cest la vie.

    How Will The New Tariffs Affect TTRPG Prices?

    They elected him. Sorry, but it’s true. All I can say is that two of my favourite miniatures companies are in the US, and it’s very hard for me to support any American company right now because it feels like rewarding a government that is openly hostile to my country even existing. So I am...

    D&D's The Book of Dragons Comes Out in August

    Me too, so I asked ChatGPT for help: Tiamat’s Journal – Entry #987,904 Bahamut gets a statue and I get another mortal summoning with bad lighting. Ugh. Tuesday. Woke up in Avernus. Again. Honestly, I thought being imprisoned in the Nine Hells would have more flair by now. Same sulfur. Same...

    D&D General Dwarven Vikings

    Vikings were a specific cultural phenomenon - one that came from my ancestors, in fact (that photo is me on a dock in Denmark last summer, on my way to visit my family's home in Sweden). So to me it is weird to discuss dwarves being Vikings, kind of like discussing dwarves being Romans or...

    D&D General The First Demise of TSR: Gygax's Folly

    Was Gygax a creative genius? If you look at his most impactful contributions, virtually all were iterations on work other people had started. Greyhawk, including (we now know, though he never admitted it) the pivotal Fantasy Supplement were iterations, often very close iterations, on work that...
