    RPG Evolution: Hautico Church Houses and Ruins Terrain

    Gothic terrain is a staple of a lot of tabletop role-playing games, including D&D and Warhammer, which is why there's lots of sets for sale like this one. This set offers a couple of ruined church buildings, designed for 18-28mm miniatures. The detail is solid. There are plenty of nooks and...

    White Dwarf Reflections #14

    They're both fiendish elephants in their description which is why I made the connection at all, perhaps inspired from the same source: Gajasura - Wikipedia Chaugnar-Faugn from Call of Cthulhu is in the same mold: Chaugnar Faugn

    RPG Print News – Necrotic Gnome, Loke Battle Maps, and More

    That's on me as editor, and doesn't reflect on Mongoose (we write these summaries ourselves, they are not just copy/pastes). Thanks for pointing this out, it's fixed

    White Dwarf Reflections #14

    That's pretty trippy ha. The gurgotch seems reminiscent of the malephant; both have breath weapons, though the gurgotch causes paralysis (specifically below the neck), while the malephant causes memory loss: Maelephant

    RPG Evolution: Clear Gaming Paper Tiles

    There are two types of DMs: the kind who like to print their maps and the kind who use dry- or wet-erase maps. The problem is that if say, you have a valuable map you need to markup that isn't made for markers, the DM has to mark up the map permanently or not touch it at all. These Gaming Paper...

    RPG Evolution: Byhoo Spell Templates

    If you're a Dungeon Master or a player who frequently uses area-of-effect spells, you know the struggle of accurately visualizing those spell ranges. In my opinion, the gold standard for spell effects are wire templates by Steel Sqwire, which make it easier to just plop a template over a...

    RPG Evolution: The Coming Social Collapse

    I lamented at length when bookstores and toy stores stopped carrying D&D. There was an overall vibe that D&D was different things at different times during its evolution, and when certain stores went under (Waldenbooks for books, KB Toys for toys), D&D went with it and then did not return. Of...

    Dragon Reflections #90

    Also, pretty sure the incanatrix became the arcane trickster in 5E. Or at least, the most interesting ability ("spell theft") showed up there.
