Number of Views :559But I didn’t have to. I got some pretty great stuff. Two things topped the list: One: a new hard drive from Bridget, which will allow me to once again use my laptop as a laptop and stop using an external hard drive, forcing me to stay in one spot. I’ll be [...]

Number of Views :596The crew of the Iron Dawn is once again ready to take to the stars. I found a few members of the crew on Facebook, and set up a group, asking them if they were interested in playing once again, online, since we’re in all different parts of the US (I’m serious. [...]

Gaming With Significant Others: An Addendum or My Response to Having the Lightning Train Swallowed By An Elemental

Posted by Bridget on Mar 8, 2010 in 4th Edition, Actual Play

Number of Views :662So far, so good has been my motto.  My husband and I have been gaming partners for going on 3 years with no incidents.  He’s often the DM or GM and I never feel singled out, either for positive rewards or harsh punishments.  I have always felt like one of the group [...]

Posted by Mark on Mar 7, 2010 in Actual Play, Star Wars RPG, Star Wars Saga Edition

Number of Views :984So, previously I mentioned how only having a couple hours a week to game makes things more cinematic (aka, like a movie). For proof, I offer up A New Hope. We’ll cover the first couple sessions, then fill out the rest of the campaign in a later post. We’ll take a look [...]

The Fearsome Beast from Below the Earth

Posted by Mark on Mar 6, 2010 in 4e D&D, Miniatures

Number of Views :1709Tonight, this is what the heroes will face. It’s the first paper model I’ve built successfully that actually turned out looking good. That’s entirely made of paper, and normally you could find it on One Monk Miniatures to download, but they’ve been redesigning their site, and I can’t find it at the [...]

Number of Views :612The Game Knights get together once a week (Friday or Saturday) for gaming from 8 pm to about 10-10:30 pm.

Stealing Ideas: Percy Jackson & The Olympians

Posted by Bridget on Mar 5, 2010 in 4e D&D, Fluff/Inspiration, Movies, Scion

Number of Views :1940I just finished reading the Percy Jackson series, by Rick Riordan.  I didn’t even know these books existed until I saw a preview for the first movie.  I greatly enjoy “children’s” series; especially fantasy/magically based ones.  Therefore, I decided to give Percy Jackson a shot. At first glance it feels like you’re [...]

The Awakening…

Posted by Mark on Mar 4, 2010 in 4e D&D, Fluff/Inspiration

Number of Views :638A few weeks back, I had (once again) attempted to start up a play-by-email campaign with some guys I know. I had just read through Underdark, and was really looking forward to running a game in the setting. Trying to get them motivated, I presented them with this introductory email post. – Beneath [...]

Three-Dragon Ante for 4e

Posted by Mark on Mar 3, 2010 in 4e D&D, Card Game

Number of Views :1432For those who don’t know, Three-Dragon Ante is supposed to be a card game used in actual D&D worlds, including Eberron, Forgotten Realms and Dragonlance. I know that they’re coming out with an expansion to Three-Dragon Ante, Emperor’s Gambit, and there will probably be rules for playing the games in 4e, but [...]

Posted by Mark on Mar 2, 2010 in Uncategorized

Number of Views :680This conversation is with a different new gamer than last time. There’s a guy I know at work who’s really into MMO’s. He’s not in my department, but his berthing is right next to mine, and we usually ride the bus in together. One of his co-workers used to be in our [...]
