Mike’s Topic

Review of Werewolf: The Apocalypse 20th Anniversary Edition (PDF)

Liz’s Topic

This week Liz is giving her opinions on the highly questionable Sim City. What does she think of it? Can she finally build a big town? How many godzillas did she release in her town? Some of these questions are answered this week!

Group Topic

This week we are still continuing with our awesome series of idea brewing! This week there has been requests on Facebook for more creature exploring – and something less fantasy based! So we have come up with….Alien races! A standard thing in futuristic games, we go into making our own alien race that is cool and exciting and different! (hopefully!)

Mike’s Topic

GMless games.  Mike talks about some GMLess games.  How does that even work?  And how do you get people used to the standard GM+Players mindset into the game?

Liz’s Topic

This week Liz is going on about Campaigns and integrating new players/characters into them! How on earth do you get  this sudden random rogue to join the party on an epic quest to save the world? Or even why on earth does the ranger or druid suddenly tag along?

Group topic!

We brainstorm a bit of setting for you to use in a game! This week we talk about a Thieves guild! Thanks to @TheMatrixRPG for this topic! How on earth do you even FIND the thieves guild without making a big neon sign?! What could it look like inside? What is the boss like? All these questions and more are kinda answered in our section this week!
