Pick an Era… Any Era: A Review of Tempus Omni
Time travel roleplaying? Oh boy… The complexities of time travel means that you have a lot on your plate as a storyteller. Given the power to skip freely through time and bend the causality to your will, what hope the well laid plans of a Gamemaster? So, I find time travel games benefit from a […]
Mighty Dragon assault cake
This is one impressive cake! It’s tempting to call it a Dungeons & Dragons cake but really the dragon is attacking a castle. A Castle & Crusades cake?

In the Best Possible Taste: Numenera’s Love and Sex in the Ninth World

In comparison, the UK the Dark Souls 2 CE costs about £79.99 and comes with a 450g Warrior Knight. These are replica weapons, it’s worth noting. The largest shield only weighs […]
Doctor Who Valentine’s Day Cards
It might be a little late to order them now but last year’s limited edition WHO – ValenTime Cards are still available from Tom Kurzanski’s Etsy store. He does offer expedited shipping, though. You do get a pack of 10 in your order. I suspect this means only shops, conferences or perhaps bloggers looking for […]
