RPG A Day 2015 – Day Fifteen

Longest campaign played. This is actually quite hard for me as the bulk of my game play in ye olden days wasn’t really campaign based.  Sure the players would keep their characters and move from scenario to scenario but I’d mash that up over various settings and use published scenarios...

RPG A Day 2015 – Day Fourteen

Favourite RPG Accessory. Well I would like to nominate my hand crafted Wipebook or perhaps my Dungeons & Dragons playmats or maybe it’s my Gen Con 2014 messenger bag? Can I choose all 3? Ok so I don’t actually use the D&D playmats whilst playing D&D (although I did once) but...

RPG A Day 2015 – Day Two

Kickstarted Game Most Pleased You Backed… So this should be a really short post as I’ve never backed any game on Kickstarter. *tumbleweed*  You can read this post if you want to know why… *tumbleweed* That said I have backed 1 thing on Kickstarter albeit not something RPG related. Board...
