Ever since I first saw Runehammer’s video “Craft Game: Hell World!”, I’ve been wanting to try out the technique he describes in this very detailed video. However, my focus last year was first and foremost to create terrain for my games as I’ve stepped into D&D after a 20 year…
Having started 2019 with a sand box style open game based around information gathering, I wanted the follow up game to be equally open-ended but much more action oriented. The adventure started action heavy with a unit of “Trueborn” (a clan of xenophobic, paranoid and highly informed Dragonborn) who wanted…
I’ve not written advice on DMing before. First of all because there are so many great channels out there. Runehammer, Matt Colville and lately Jim Murphy. However, in Runehammer’s latest Patreoncast “Mainframe 39: More than just talk!” he brought the disconnect between the universally accepted advice that shifting the “spotlight”…
To prepare for the infernal direction our Dungeons & Dragons campaign is taking, I have been painting a few infernal miniatures for the first time. While the Tieflings have been fun to paint, and the Succubus introduced some leathery wings and an even more infernal feel, I still felt I…
At the end of 2018 I wrote a summary deck capturing the core highlights of our 2018 games. This has worked a lot better as a tool for players than my diary entries, which I guess is mostly for myself and other DMs looking for inspiration. So I am going…
Dungeons & Dragons campaign is turning infernal I’ve been painting my first three ever infernal miniatures. This cool Damien, Hellborn Wizard from Reaper Miniatures is one out of three. The other two being The other two being the Semira Marise and Winged Imogen miniatures from Hasslefree. When I was looking for suitable Tiefling miniatures I…
As our Dungeons & Dragons campaign is turning infernal, I’ve had a chance to paint some infernal miniatures for the first time in my hobby career. Semira Marise from Hasslefree is perfect as a sensual Tiefling lady and she is one of three first ever infernal miniatures for me, the other two…
Although I’ve played both tabletop wargames and tabletop roleplaying games a lot in my life, I’ve never actually ever fielded or painted any devil miniatures. This Winged Imogen miniature from Hasslefree is one I’ve thought was awesome for years, but since I didn’t have a use for it in a…
Sometimes a mini comes along that is somewhere between insane and awesome. The Cupboard Mimic from Zealot Miniatures definitely falls into this category and I am currently trying to create some D&D stats for this… Well actually I don’t see this as a mimic. It seems way to aggressive and…
When I started up Dungeons & Dragons last year, I started with a team of people either completely new to RPGs or had some limited experience back in school. That, combined with the fact that I have to relearn a game I hadn’t played for over 20 years, meant I…
No, I do not believe there’s such a thing as too many mimics! Looks like Galladoria Games (previously ForgePrints) agree with their Mimic Invasion Kit.
When I paint scenery bits I don’t paint them by where I’ve bought them so sometimes i end up with a bundle like this. Some indoors, some outdoors, some from Zealot Miniatures and some from The Battle Forge Not sure where I got food bits for this table from.
