Status Report

Last Friday we finished the first session of my new gonzo science-fantasy DCC RPG campaign, Terminus Nova. We had an epic character funnel, one I will probably write more about in the future - after I'm done running it one more time on a small rpg convention in Budapest. Preparing for the campaign was also a good excuse to dust off one of my all-time favorite classics, the Arduin Grimoire Trilogy. Be prepared for a lengthy review!

Since some of my players have the handwriting of an epilectic doctor, I have created a form fillable version of my DCC RPG character sheet. I didn't put much effort into it because working with the form fields was a pain in the ass, but it gets the job done.

Back in Black

I have moved into a new flat, found a new job, which means I'll have enough free time again for my beloved hobbies. The final chapter of the Appendix N Adventures Toolkit reviews is coming this week, then I will move on to hopefully more delightful subjects. My backlog is full of promising items, and I was lucky enough to play a few weeks ago in Melan's Castle Xyntillan, so there is a lot I can write about.

Interview with the Referee

I'm in the middle of moving to Budapest and looking for a new job. I've lost count of the job interviews I've had in the last two weeks, and probably as many are still to be done. Once this gauntlet is over (around the beginning of November) I will return and continue with my reviews. Stay tuned!

Prelude to an Exhausting Vacation

I'll be on a vacation next week. Once I have returned I'll continue my stream of reviews, but not with the The Treacherous Cobwebs. After the last two reviews I feel like a sour old fart, so I'll write about something more delightful before I continue my series of ANAT critiques. Stay tuned!

Doomed Free Time

Wow, I haven't posted anything in a month. Sorry for the hiatus, but in my free time I was busy playing Doom. It's been a while since I was so captivated with a video game - and it's not even an rpg! Years ago I have given up on first person shooters because I didn't like the gameplay and level design of modern shooters. While there were some old-school games like Rise of the Triad, Shadow Warrior, I still had more fun with returning to Quake here and there to check out a few mods. Playing Doom was amazing, especially after I felt how my long regressed shooting skills were improving again.

Since I have finished the game it's time to start taking care of other duties and hobbies again. Stay tuned for more!
