On Hit Points and Healing
I consider an alternative out of combat healing model that may simplify my life and reduce the work I need to do… and get rid of the silly healing stick I see so many treat as standard equipment.
Links of the Week: October 17, 2011
So. Many. Links. I’m surprised, according to the thumb on the scrollbar, this is actually about normal. I think perhaps I need to be a little more selective in what I read, so I actually have time to write. But there are so many good articles out there, and I’m …
Link of Fame: Zombie Wedding… Officiated by Bruce Campbell
… when I got married, it was just in a chapel, by a chaplain. As much as he’s an old friend of mine, he’s nowhere near as cool as Bruce Campbell. Nate and Casey’s Zombie Wedding from David Franzen on Vimeo. Thanks to I’d Rather Be Killing Monsters… for bringing …
Link of Fame: Library in 3d
Okay, this build of a library is one of the more compelling selling points I’ve seen for Fat Dragon Games supplements. I so want to have this sort of thing for my own table. The picture below is one of twenty of this wonderful piece of work.
Link of Fame: Encounters ~ Plots ~ Places Kickstarter
I like watching Kickstarter for new projects. I think the pledge model is a wonderful way to get things off the ground. I’d really like to see Ben’s latest project, “Encounters ~ Plots ~ Places“, make it to production. He’s about a fifth of the way there now, and a …

Breaking… Rumor? D&D 5e in the Works?
Given the recent speculation based on posts at Wizards of the Coast, I thought I’d share something I just saw on Google+ (and the link to Margaret Weis’ comment it refers to). Via Matthew Brenner: In a recent post on the Dragonlance forums, Margaret Weis “confirms” that Wizards of the …
Links of the Week: October 3, 2011
Lots of articles this week, and a wide range of topics. I take that back. I just looked at the preview, and it’s huge. I’d cut it down, but there was a lot of good material out there this week. I’ve been reading so much lately it’s been cutting into …
Link of Fame: Winter is Coming Festival
From time to time a number of RPG bloggers will decide that some topic or another would be fun to post on. This time, wombat proposed and organized a festival called “Winter is Coming”. Winter is Coming (http://gamerblog.twwombat.com/2011/09/winter-is-coming-rpg-blog-festival.html) I meant to join this festival but didn’t have an opportunity to …
Link of Fame: Daffy Duck the Wizard
This video has been making the rounds in blogs and social media sites (Google+, Facebook) for a few days now, and I’m far from the first to post this… But I must admit, this video has me looking up the rest of the series. Classic(-style) metal, complete with arcane allusions …
