I’m still hoping to get back into some in-person gaming before the year ends, and part of that process will be living up to my long-time threats to run some one-shots at a local gaming store. At least one of these will likely be the Wild Sheep Chase adventure for which I built a big […]

The Homebrewery is a tool that’s been around for a while that’s geared primarily toward helping users making home-brewed rules, items, creatures, etc. for D&D to create nicely formatted documents in the styles of some of the official manuals. Rather than presenting a feature-rich graphical user interface, it relies on a simplistic text formatting language

My First Published Encounter For a while now I’ve wanted to dabble in publishing adventures. As I mentioned in a recent post, last year I enrolled in an online Write Your First Encounter course which focused on creating a one-page work that can be easily dropped into a campaign. What follows is a little of

(Yes, I seem to have put off until late 2024 writing about something I did in early 2023. In my defense, I did create a blank post last year with the intention of filling in the rest of it “sometime later this week”!) A couple of years ago I started seeing people talking about an

I participated in a Kickstarter a few years back for a giant. playable, 3D printable Scout vessel from Traveller. Sadly, I still don’t own a printer large enough to handle that particular monstrosity… but the Kickstarter also included a wide variety of vessels in a smaller scale. In spite of not really having a gaming-related

A couple of weeks ago, a user named idolofmanyhands on DM Scotty’s discord server created a Google Sheet called the EZD6 Repository, intended to be a shared community source for monsters and other resources created or adapted for that game. It already contains the contents of The Book of Beasts, an effort from another community

My gaming remains almost entirely online these days, so crafting projects are sporadic at best. There’s little drive to create terrain and paint minis when there are no concrete plans to actually use them in the near-ish future. But the urge to build something is still there, lurking in the background, and on occasion I’m

(There are at least a half-dozen topics I’ve been intending to write about in the few months since I last posted here, and someone specifically asked me about this subject the other day, so it’s the first one I’ll tackle.) As posted here in the past, I’ve both run and built a ridiculous amount of

I’ve been meaning to post this for quite a while – since sometime around October, I think? But with the problems the site was having I didn’t bother at the time… and then I, er… sort of just forgot. But now that I’ve had time to rebuild the site, I wanted to actually post something
