Last week we had our second session of the megadungeoncrawl. Erik and Michael were unavailable, so Courtney Campbell was joined by James Aulds and Gabriel Perez Gallardi. Honestly, I’m not as pleased with how well I ran this session. I’d spent more time preparing specifically for this session, but when …
I cannot convey how utterly disappointed I am that I don’t know anyone right now with kids the right age for this. A small, short Kickstarter campaign — started November 5, closes November 10, already 1,100/600 funded. Yes. That small. The rewards are similarly small, $4 for a digital copy, $7 …
Erik Tenkar‘s updated his Kickstarter status report. My backing list overlaps him to some degree, but we each have things the other didn’t back. I thought I’d offer some of my own observations for projects I’ve backed that I don’t see that he has (we both backed Tabletop Forge and …
So, National Game Development Month. I’m not a purist. I won’t be starting from scratch. I do, however, aim to have Echelon playable by the end of November. Quite probably in dire need of polishing, but at the least, a set of rules that can be printed out, a set …

It may seem odd that I say “reconsidering hex crawls”, given that I’ve never really discussed them here, but that’s what I’m doing. As with megadungeons, hex crawls are something that never really appealed to me. The ones I’ve seen are generally presented as list of hexes and the things …
Tonight we had our first session of a dungeon crawl exploring the node-based megadungeon. This is going to be a little rambly and less polished than usual. I want to get it down before I go to sleep. I didn’t get all the character names, but the players tonight included …
Yes, looks like it beats Thriller to me. Nicely creepy, too. Well-played, literally.
Weapon speeds in D&D – expressed as modifiers to initiative rolls – have always bothered me. I was delighted to see them removed in D&D 3.x after having stuck around through AD&D. Real Life In my experience and observation, both of which I will admit are limited but are verified …
Since I apparently don’t have enough to do, I’ve been considering another project, possibly to be packaged for sale on OBS or Lulu or something. No, I haven’t forgotten the interest people have expressed in my doing this for the megadungeon, and in fact they are related. I’ve been asked …
