http://fistsofcinderandstone.blogspot.com/2016/11/pale-crowns-of-fire.html
Writing for tabletop RPGs. Saturday, November 19, 2016. Pale Crowns of Fire. Facing to the northern clime,. Thrice he traced the Runic rhyme;. Thrice pronounced, in accents dread,. The thrilling verse that wakes the dead,. Till from out the hollow ground. Slowly breathed a sullen sound. But after a hundred years of living in fear of the Dead Kings the wise mages of Chalcis had discovered the secret to calling the winds to their biding, dispelling the Wyrfog of their undead foes. And there was a repri...

A Roll of the Dice: Like Some Acknowledgement?
http://abraxarba.blogspot.com/2016/12/like-some-acknowledgement.html
A Roll of the Dice. Saturday, December 31, 2016. I look at other games, often catch something I don't like and wail, "oh my god why did you do that! Sometimes I even go so far as to write the author about it (which they absolutely loooooove, not) but of course - duh - it's hard to change a game system after it has been dressed up and shipped out the door. Red EFT RPG White Pages. So, what is the Red EFT RPG? Yes Total Global World Domination. Global World Domination would be redundant. Since the late 90'...

A Roll of the Dice: November 2015
http://abraxarba.blogspot.com/2015_11_01_archive.html
A Roll of the Dice. Thursday, November 26, 2015. The Original Palace of the Silver Princess. Ever open a box of Celestial Seasonings to find a bunch of severed fingers hidden in the wax paper wrapper? But that is kinda what it feels like reading the original orange-backed copy of B3 Palace of the Silver Princess. I don't own a printed copy but the pdf is freely available on the internet. Finding the time to read it over was a much bigger challenge. Read no further if you plan to play either adventure.

A Roll of the Dice: RPGaDay2016 - 3 - Character Moment You Are Most Proud Of?
http://abraxarba.blogspot.com/2016/08/rpgaday2016-3-character-moment-you-are.html
A Roll of the Dice. Monday, August 1, 2016. RPGaDay2016 - 3 - Character Moment You Are Most Proud Of? I've done a bunch of neat things. I helped overthrow a dictator. I once talked an AI program into stopping a nuclear meltdown in Gamma World. I once rolled three twenties on a d20 in a row. I once filled a cannon full of chain on an abandoned pirate ship and by all means should have blown away the head bad guy just as he appeared in the story. That was actually pretty funny. Against The Wicked City.

A Roll of the Dice: Slimfast Games
http://abraxarba.blogspot.com/2016/08/slimfast-games.html
A Roll of the Dice. Monday, August 1, 2016. It seems as if everyone in the Tabletop RPG community has decided to go on a diet this summer, not for themselves but for the systems they play, condensing them down to Light Games,. Pocket Games, One-Hour Games, One-Page Games. I'm waiting for someone to announce that they're going to try to shrink Pathfinder onto a single Bazooka Joe. Comic strip (ask your parents, kids). Slimfast Games. But doesn't bikini season normally start in the spring? I wouldn't recom...

The Wandering Gamist: July 2015
http://wanderinggamist.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
In every game, a journey. Thursday, July 16, 2015. This is a somewhat roundabout post, but ends with putting the Conqueror back in ACKS. Bear with me. I've been playing a lot of Europa Universalis IV recently. I'm fairly rubbish at it, but I enjoy it nonetheless (and more than its sibling from Paradox Studios, Crusader Kings II, which I've mentioned previously. Sure, they might rebel later, but that's what you've got a garrison for, right? Also: in future, I'm totally going to try to make sure most mass ...
