After a night of Castles & Crusades

The Witch's Mirror

First, that is going to be the title for my next Darkenfold Adventure.

Secondly, its going to involve this picture somehow.


Movie Trailer ~ Resident Evil the Final Chapter

I absolutely love these movies, especially Afterlife, the one with the giant axe wielding giant dude. They are cinematic operas! Motion, color, sound and living feel about them. Absolute fun.

Here's the trailer for the next one, though I don't like that "final chapter" bit, all things must, I suppose, come to an end.


There is a reason...

There is a reason that so many nations, from Rome, Russia, Austria-Hungary to the United States choose the Eagle as their national bird. It is a powerful creature. Decisive. Fearless in the face of uncertainty and utterly confident in its own abilities to achieve its end. Other birds, such at the turkey though fierce when cornered, run, hide, and depend upon camouflage for survival.

But all that, though true, pales in comparison to having a bad ass looking symbol and the Eagle is just simply bad ass!

Kickstarter ENDS today!

We have slid into the last day of our Hallowed Oracle Kickstarter! We are down to a few scant hours. Its funded and grown far beyond what we intended. The main book is now in hardcover, the Players Guides has grown from 24 pages to a hardback book and is very close to tipping over the scales into an even larger book.

You can read all about it here.

Head on over and pledge!

Gencon 2016

I fully intended to live-blog from Gencon, but was quickly swallowed by my booth and didn't escape until sometime late Monday evening!

So much for live-blogging!

The con was great, our 17th to date and filled with all the things you have come to expect with Gencon. That said, there seems to be an ever growing number of very large vendors swallowing up more and more space.

A sign of the times!

The TLG Rig!

How Wizards See the World

Why Can't Modern Man...

Wear a toga without looking like an idiot. I mean, really, its a pretty simple garment, what gives? Perhaps its the cloth, perhaps its our build, perhaps we really don't know what toga's were like. Perhaps we are idiots.

 
Or maybe all the Greeks and Romans looked like idiots. That's possible, but I find it hard to believe since the did so much ass kicking for so many years, centuries really. The Spartans kicked everyone's ass for like 400 years, and the Romans did a fair job at it for 700 years (neither of which are small feats).

Of course that may be why their statues have them naked all the time, the toga made them look like idiots and they took them off to fight!


Trailer Talk ~ Justice League

Okay, the casting looks great. Ben Affleck looks fantastic as Batman (might be the best yet), the Flash, Aquaman both look spot on (really spot on) and Wonder Woman, well, through the roof on her.

But I'll say this, this trailer looks to be a 10th as good as the Wonder Woman trailer.


This is Cosplay

It was an interesting journey Kathy and I took out west. We landed in Vegas and wandered north out of town with the purpose of circling the ...
