The Game I’m Itching to Run

I want, I want, I want. Here’s my post-GenCon hype:
I want to run a spy game, maybe something black ops, maybe more political intrigue-y, maybe rogue agents, maybe agents with all the resources of an agency behind them, perhaps even something with more of a crime heist flavor. The exact details I want to leave [...]

Fates Worse Than Death

With all due respect to Gary Gygax, but the Tomb of Horrors is a real bitch. Saif has been running some of us through an updated 3.5 version of the infamous dungeon and I have to say that we’ve been doing quite well. It doesn’t hurt that the party includes a robot that is immune [...]

Addicted to Adventures!

Hello. My name is Herzwesten and I have a problem.
A good 75% of my disposable income is spent on adventures. Some I’m sure I’ll never have the opportunity to run. Especially the Paizo Adventure Path stuff. Every six months, I get a new 1st-to-15th level campaign that would take more than a year to run. [...]
