Speaking of gaming, the last few I have run have been kind of bleh.

The one I ran in Summer of 2007 was okay overall, the first session was probably the best I had ever run, but after that it was just average.

The one I ran in Summer of 2008(a Dragonlance game) lasted only a few sessions before stopping.

The one I ran in Summer of 2009(also a Dragonlance game) lasted a while, but we were unable to play the last session I had planned due to schedule issues.

The only thing GR has that are of any interest are M&M books, but they tend to release every 4 - 6 months.

I enjoyed Book of the Righteous and the map book Dungeons of Doom has been very handy. I also liked the Advanced series and the Medieval Player's Handbook. I picked up a ton of others when they were being cleared out at $2 and $5, and sometimes I pick one up and read it just for the fun of it, even if I don't plan to use it directly. GR does maintain a consistently high quality with their gaming material.

Book of the Righteous was one of my favorite 3PP books for D&D, if only for the appendix dealing with variant Holy Knights.

They had several books I was interested in buying, though unfortunately they all vanished during their clearance sale (ie Shaman's Handbook and several other books). I kind of wish some of them would be re released as part of the 3rd Era books, but alas they haven't.

I did however get Sidewinder:Recoiled recently. .. thought that's not exactly a Green Ronin product, but instead is a product published through a Green Ronin imprint.

Many factors led to the demise of gaming around here.

1) family life most of the players from from my 90's and 00's groups are now husbands and fathers.

2) 4e

3) the cost of gaming

4) a few local key people got an attitude (I count myself as one with my opinion of drug use and external activities)

5) burn out. Several people were playing 1-2 games a week for the past decade

6) life happens college, relocate for better jobs. Southern Vermont is not an economic center. Burlington/Montpelier dosen't even recognize we exist.



Speaking of work.... I have orders and a meeting to go to. Later.

Today I played on my Xbox 360. And lo, it was awesome.

Mass Effect 2 has an insanely detailed world behind it (and I'm struggling a bit with the combat, but that'll come) and Bioshock 2 is insanely atmospheric (although I'm struggling a bit with the combat).

Clearly, I am out of touch and need to play games more to get better at this stuff.

Oh, I have that book. Guess I totally forgot that was by them. hah.

The Wolfman is the funniest looking werewolf on the planet. I wished they had not decided to use the original design in the remake.
