Campaign Concept Pt. 3: The Empire of Tel

Posted by Mark on Aug 4, 2010 in 3e D&D, 4e D&D, Fluff/Inspiration

Number of Views :991Following the last couple of days, we have a new campaign concept, the Empire of Tel. Magic, as we know it, vanished over 200 years ago. The fey races have faded, leaving humanity as the sole power in the world. Magic is, by many, thought to be merely that of legend, as are the [...]

Posted by Mark on Aug 3, 2010 in 3e D&D, 4e D&D, Fluff/Inspiration

Number of Views :572Continuing on from yesterday’s post of campaign concepts, I present the idea of running a campaign in a war-devastated world: There Is Only War. One hundred years of warfare takes its toll. The once great cities of the Empire have fallen into ruin. Survivors hide in the rubble, facing the armies of Tieflings, Orcs [...]

Campaign Concepts Pt. 1: The Colonists

Posted by Mark on Aug 2, 2010 in 3e D&D, 4e D&D, Fluff/Inspiration

Number of Views :743I’ve been thinking about new campaign concepts recently, how to break the mold from the traditional fantasy game, and have come up with a series of different concepts I think could make for some pretty great roleplaying in your next D&D campaign. We’ll begin the series with what I like to call: [...]

Painted Vs. Unpainted Miniatures

Number of Views :1331Back in March, Stuart Robertson of Robertson Games wrote a post about painted vs. unpainted miniatures, which got a lot of great comments. iIn the post, he asked who out there uses entirely painted figures with no stand-ins.

Starlight… Starbright… Stargate?

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

Number of Views :875I’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 [...]

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 [...]

Mini-Campaign: Marvel’s Civil War

Posted by Mark on May 11, 2010 in Fluff/Inspiration, Savage Worlds, Super Heroes

Number of Views :5743Having just seen Iron Man 2 yesterday, (Spoiler-free review: better than Iron Man, and doesn’t ever feel like it’s dragging. It incorporates a ton of greater Marvel universe stuff, and you NEED to stick around after the credits) I’ve been thinking about running a mini-campaign in the Marvel universe once I move. [...]

Mini-Campaigns

Posted by Mark on May 8, 2010 in Advice/Tools, Fluff/Inspiration

Number of Views :675This is something I’ve heard discussed by Chatty in the past, and I’m sure a few other RPG Bloggers have done it as well: Mini-Campaigns. I was thinking about the long, drawn out DnD campaigns that have been run by my group over the last couple of years: Points of Light, Forgotten [...]

Jurassic Park RPG: Something Has Survived…

Posted by Mark on May 5, 2010 in Dinosaurs, Fluff/Inspiration, Game Design, Savage Worlds

Number of Views :3582Staying on my Savage Worlds kick I’m on at the moment, I was thinking about an awesome Jurassic Park RPG. As some may know, they’re working on a new Jurassic Park comic, and that’s what got me thinking. You would open the mini-campaign by encouraging the players to make a a character [...]
