Ludi Berkeley: a Berkeley Gaming Blog. Sunday, June 30, 2013. Action Economy in D&D Next. A few weekends ago, I finally fulfilled one of my long-standing gaming goals. By playing in the D&D Next. Open beta as part of D&D Worldwide Game Day. As a roleplayer, I couldn't have been happier with the new rules- my wonderful and patient non-roleplayer girlfriend got to endure at least five minutes of me singing its praises. Going along with our recent discussions of complexity. Of course, in designing a game, t...

http://ludiberkeley.blogspot.com/2013/07/2013-fantasy-terrible-television.html
Ludi Berkeley: a Berkeley Gaming Blog. Wednesday, July 31, 2013. 2013 Fantasy Terrible Television. It is nearly that time of year again. Old friends reconvene like a cult at the end of each summer to draft from fan favorites and formulate a team made up of the very best. If you've been following this blog you've taken notice that we tend to have a similar ritual we handle in an unorthodox fashion. Last year some of us cheered with Croatia. And some of us laughed with the Arizona Cardinals. Shows can hurt...

http://ludiberkeley.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Ludi Berkeley: a Berkeley Gaming Blog. Friday, November 8, 2013. Fantasy Terrible Television Update September/October. After two months of disastrous premieres it is time for a recap of what we've seen so far. There were some odd full season renewals, a few early dismissals from prime-time and plenty of sub-par programming that is barely hanging on. Scoring Changes - Lucky 7 (First Cancellation of the Season: 51 points), Ironside (Cancelled: 41 points), Mom (Full Order: -19 points). About A Boy (NBC).

Ludi Berkeley: a Berkeley Gaming Blog. Sunday, October 6, 2013. Quick Reviews 3rd Quarter 2013. The following are quick reviews for new games I've played the last three months. I've ordered them from most anticipated to least anticipated. Back in August I stopped by to visit Matt while on the west coast. While on the trip I was able to play several two player games on Castles of Burgundy. An absolutely delightful game. One of the very best games I've had a chance to try this year. 95 out of 10. Players t...

Ludi Berkeley: a Berkeley Gaming Blog. Monday, March 31, 2014. Quick Reviews 1st Quarter 2014. It has been too long since I’ve had a chance to do some quick reviews, I missed a quarterly write-up opportunity in December as I was consumed with launching Games Precipice, a blog Matt and I have been writing about game design. I’ve been able to play Compounded. Several times since I received my Kickstarter copy. I’m still not sure of my eventual rating as this could be anywhere from a 7 to a 9. 75 out of 10.

Ludi Berkeley: a Berkeley Gaming Blog. Thursday, October 24, 2013. The Walking Dead: Review and Discussion. Zombies have been popular culture's undead of choice for a while now. They've spawned hit TV shows, popular movies, more video games than we know what to do with, and even a handful of board games whose main selling points seem to be "hey, this game is about zombies! To play a good point-and-click style exploration game in the vein of Broken Sword or Monkey Island for a while. Outside of the narrat...

Ludi Berkeley: a Berkeley Gaming Blog. Thursday, August 29, 2013. 2013 Fantasy Terrible Television Draft Analysis Part I. We created the latest sensation in Fall Fantasy games of skill, with the objective of identifying the most futile of television offerings. Six of us spend the last four weeks drafting from new and returning shows, trading draft picks and discussing the viability of late round picks such as The Millers and Once Upon A Time In Wonderland. 1 The Eye Test. Looks so bad I traded up from 6t...
