Conan of Cimmeria and books

So I was out in the garage rummaging and found this book (image from net, but same book)


Reminds not only how much I liked these books but how much I like the feel of a book. The e-book thing will never sit with me I don't think.

Monte Cook back to D&D/WotC

Monte Cook is going back to? the D&D line and looks to be heading up R&D. So a new version is on the horizon.

Again.

5th time is the charm? I look forward to the revisions.


Man can llight the universe with a create light spell

Scientists have just created the most awesome light spell ever. Ok, maybe a gamma ray beam spell. This beam of light is,
more than a thousand billion times more brilliant than the sun.
In your eyes you dragon you.

Holy cow

I keep getting busy. This has made me realize how difficult it would be to run an actual blog. It would be (probably is for some people) a full time job.

So here I go again. Once more into the breach.

Shout out to a dungeon generator

Myth Weavers has a neat dungeon generator. This is what I made.


LOL

It comes with encounters as well. I was thinking about trying to make an effort at running a total sandbox hex crawl random dungeon event game/ I would need some resources to do it though.

Random town, random city encounters, random mapmaker, random overland, random room, random plot etc

maybe I could auto pilot it..

Sea monster in Australia


Eyewitnesses claim that a huge-eyed, semi-aquatic beast attacked a ship in the Pacific Ocean, where it apparently ate at least one unfortunate sailor aboard the vessel.

Old story (well a year) but interesting - in its lack of facts. Who knows though. Something big may yet be found in those depths.

Travian Browsaer game - A++++

I played 3 whole sessions of travian in the past few years. I may actually try and play the game again. If anyone likes browser games, this is the one to play. The upside is wads of fun and aggression pays off real well. The downside, if you have any children, they will starve as you sit at the computer 24/7.

Check it out

Pretty cool.
