I sold some games on Craigslist the other day; Some old board games I’ll never use. I let them go for 25 bucks, which, if you were to buy those games individually, would probably be around $200. But I wasn’t playing them, as I said, and they needed to go. So what did I do? [...]
So, 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 at it from [...]
Last week, the wife and I went to Central 111, a local club, for my friend’s 30th birthday. Now, mind you, it’s my first time in a club. I’ve been to bars (quite a few in Manhattan), but never a club. It was an experience, let me tell you. But, as always, I immediately thought [...]
I’ve found, as of late, that I simply don’t have time for long encounters. We only have about 2-3 hours a week we’re together, so getting through multiple scenes is essential. There’s no time to spend the whole session whacking away at a pair of wyverns, so I’ve begun ignoring the monster’s HP and killing [...]
Even though Episode 1 wasn’t on the level of the original trilogy (though unlike most, I still quite enjoyed it), podracing was always an idea I liked. The idea of strapping a couple of jet engines together and pulling a little seat you’re sitting in across the track seems both ludicrous, and exactly the type [...]

I’m starting up a new campaign soon with some friends. We’ll be playing when our ship goes out to sea for training, so I decided to try out Wizard of the Coast’s Dawn of Defiance Star Wars Saga Edition campaign. I’ve already begun reading through the adventures, changing them where I need to. I’ve been [...]
It’s a new comic! And this one is actually good, unlike every single other one. Just kidding. This one sucks like the rest of them. Again… kidding. As always, feel free to comment. (p.s. An Editor’s Note from Capuchin Captions: It’s Dicemonkey’s birthday today!) number of view: 78 Tweet This Post
How bothered would you be if you arrived at a new game, and the GM informed you that you would be able to choose one of a certain set of race/class combinations? Let me make myself make sense: You show up at a new game, ready with some character concepts floating around in your head. [...]
So, I’m beginning a new one-on-one Star Wars campaign with my wife. Yesterday, I was putting together her first encounter, in which she, a 1st Level Jedi, fights alongside 5 Clone Troopers (CL 2 each) and a Clone Trooper Commander (CL 5) against a squad of 5 Battle Droids (CL 1 each) and 4 Super [...]
