If you listen to the RPG podcasts coming out of last weekend’s Gen Con, you’ll no doubt hear a common question: What was your goal for Gen Con? Me? I came to town to play games. And I did. Lots of them. I’ve already mentioned Luke Meyer’s very awesome scenario for Hunter: The Vigil, “The […]
Gamers have all played in games that were less than we wanted them to be. It’s easy to get the wrong mix of players at the table where they fail to listen to one another and support each other’s fun. The GM’s energy may be low. I’ve even seen where the entire group just doesn’t […]

The book was supposed to come out last week, but was delayed until yesterday. I downloaded the PDF last night. I’m not ready to give my full review yet, but I’d like to share my […]
As I shared earlier, I am sporting some major wood for Atomic Overmind Press’ new setting book penned by Ken Hite, The Day After Ragnarok. It’s written for Savage Worlds, detailing a world that ended during World War II. It looks awfully cool. The Day After Ragnarok was announced for May 27th PDF release last […]
