A few things I've found that have dramatically changed my style over the years (cribbed from various sources): - I do a "previously on" at the start of each session. Where possible, I try to boil this down to threads that affect the ongoing story. Just saying "Previously on...(whatever)" has...

Glad to see the love for MUTANT! It's such a neat game, and so well produced.

Dungeon mag had a load of good adventures that showcase 4e's strengths. I recommend this: http://archive.wizards.com/dnd/article.aspx?x=dnd/dun/smileybob

The Guardian won a Pulitzer prize in 2014 for its role in breaking the Snowden files and its overall coverage of the surveillance debate. As a paper it's many things, but it's not a supermarket gossip rag. Like most big news bodies, it just has a fairly broad culture desk.

I wrote the scenario you were playing (Outlaws of the Iron Route), so I'm sorry to hear it all fell through for you. The situation is designed to encourage planning - crazy or otherwise - so I did get a chuckle from reading about "arrange yourself in fireball formation" :) In your particular...

That's good advice. I'd be rather annoyed if I made a sailor with high Wisdom under the assumption that's what pilot checks would be based on, only to have the DM base them mostly on Intelligence. For home games it's fine - you just thrash it out during character gen - but for public games I...

What ability check should I use for piloting a ship? For example, steering the ship through treacherous reefs, steering through a storm, or avoiding a collision between vessels. I was thinking Intelligence, with proficiency bonus added if I'm proficient in Vehicles (Water). However, I could see...

Perhaps a Jabberwocky or two to snicker-snack with our vorpal swords?

Do you see any role for print magazines in the future of the hobby? What did your time with Dungeon/Dragon magazine and Kobold Quarterly teach you about running RPG periodicals? Is there any hope for KQ returning?

These look ace :)

But I missed the boat for my badge :( Posting here as per the latest update!

I have a weekly Monday evening game that's around 2.5 hours, and then 3 ongoing campaigns to work into weekends. Often this adds up to playing twice a week, Mondays and Saturdays. Saturday games are either 2-late or 8-late, depending on the game.

"Decision at Midnight" is my favourite FASA module. In fact, since playing it, it's only module I've ever run for the system. It's that good.

And we have a winner! Many congratulations to Ryan Hobbs! The raffle raised an amazing £662 for Games Aid. That's over a thousand dollars, and 331% over target! Huge thanks to all who donated - Games Aid is a great cause, and the money will go a long way to helping some seriously ill kids...

The draw takes place in just over an hour. Still time to get your name in the pot!

Hey folks, it's your last chance to enter my raffle for a 5th Edition Player's Handbook signed by the whole D&D team! I'm going to do the draw tomorrow (28th) at 6 pm GMT. It's only the price of a cup of coffee to enter, and all proceeds go to Games Aid, an excellent charity that helps disabled...
