Gnomish Failure

Posted by Mark on Oct 31, 2010 in 3e D&D, Blog

Number of Views :1074A while back I wrote a post on my worst game ever. After I described a situation, I ended up with a ton of comments, most coming down to “you’re an idiot.” Mind you, it was  written about nine months ago, and I’ve been getting comments on it as recently as a [...]

I’ve got a monster for you so terrifying, you may never wander into a pumpkin patch ever again. The [...]

Wish Fulfillment

Posted by Mark on Oct 25, 2010 in 4e D&D, Advice/Tools

Number of Views :1071Tracy, or Sarah Darkmagic as she’s known, recently wrote an article for Critical Hits, in which she postulates giving players magical items based on a wishlist they compile. Now, I’m not going to criticize that, since I’m guilty of far worse.   I used to tell the players they had each found an 8th-level magical [...]

The Mark of Nerath

Posted by Mark on Oct 20, 2010 in 4e D&D, Books

Number of Views :957I’ve been reading the Mark of Nerath, the first book set in the default “points of light” D&D setting, and from what I’ve read so far (all 141 pages) it’s quite an entertaining read. Now, as you know, I’m easily entertained (remember, I liked Daredevil). So take it for what you will. [...]

On Being a Cruel Bastard

Posted by Mark on Oct 13, 2010 in 4e D&D, Fluff/Inspiration

Number of Views :1166There are some mean, brutal DMs out there. Not that that’s a bad thing, but I’ve seen some mean, mean DMs. Over at Save vs. Death, Sersa likes to run something he calls “Hardcore D&D 4e”. Basically, his games consist of every horror story you heard about “old-school” gaming: death-traps, swinging pendulum [...]
