Mouse Guard: No Power Cards… No Fun? Not at All!

Posted by Bridget on May 21, 2010 in 4e D&D, Actual Play, Mouse Guard

Number of Views :1470I am a pretty hardcore 4e D&D gamer.  What can I say:  It was my first real gaming experience;  I’m comfortable with it.  I like it.  Besides a little side-step into a Savage Worlds game, Descent or even Munchkin here and there… well, I always go back to 4e. What makes me [...]

Starlight… Starbright… Stargate?

Posted by Bridget on May 20, 2010 in Blog, Fluff/Inspiration, Savage Worlds, Sci-Fi, Stargate SG-1

Number of Views :872I’ve always been fascinated by the stars.  I’ve dreamt of traveling them many times.  As many children do, I wished and wanted desperately to be an astronaut!  And as with most of us, except a very select few, that doesn’t quite happen. But I figure I can’t be the only one who [...]

For now, I’d like to point you to a mission posted up on the Burning Wheel/Mouse Guard forums, in which the poster Court [...]

Failure is Fun!

Posted by Mark on May 18, 2010 in 4e D&D, Advice/Tools, Mouse Guard

Number of Views :621In our game of Mouse Guard the other night, there was a new concept the players had a hard time accepting at first. It wasn’t the idea of the three-round turns, or the four types of actions you could take during your round. It wasn’t even the separation between the player’s turn [...]

Splicing Genres: Sci-Fi/Super Heroes

Posted by Mark on May 17, 2010 in Fluff/Inspiration, Sci-Fi, Super Heroes

Number of Views :846Previously, I had mentioned splicing genres together to create interesting new settings. I’d like to cover, in detail, some different mashups of various settings and see what we end up with. Today’s entry: Sci-Fi/Super Heroes. Imagine a setting where the Solar system has been fully populated, with not just colonies, but whole [...]

Number of Views :2251Last night, I ran my first game of Mouse Guard ever, since receiving the book for Christmas. The morning of, Bridget suggested that since Samaira (one of our regular players) would be coming over that evening, perhaps I could run a little Mouse Guard.

Why I am the Only Person in my Group Who Owns the Books

Posted by Mark on May 14, 2010 in Advice/Tools

Number of Views :718I’m the only person in the group who owns any  game books. This has become apparent in my 10 years of playing. Now, in my last group (the one that just split), one other guy owned every single book as well, but in every previous group, I’ve been the one and only [...]

Mini-Campaigns Pt. 2

Posted by Mark on May 13, 2010 in Advice/Tools

Number of Views :653A few days back, I posted about Mini-Campaigns, and got some really great responses. One came from someone with the name Aoi, but they didn’t leave a website, so I’m not sure if they’re a blogger or not. Either way, they had some great points to make. Here it is, and I’ll [...]
