An Author’s Guide to playing God and Influencing People

July 15, 2015 by Guest Writer 1 Comment

Hello. My Name is Kira Morgana and I’m a Writing Fanatic. I’ve been writing things down for sixteen years now and there doesn’t seem to be any kind of cure or medication that can help me. So I’ve decided to talk about writing in an effort to calm down my muse (he’s a dragon) and […]

This blogger is in the process of trying to sell his tiny flat on the edge of the docks here in Edinburgh (hey; it comes with a free Ingress portal) so the name of the game is currently all about making things plain, simple and like a blank canvass that any would be buyer is […]

10 of the Best Rule 63 Cosplays Spotted at the 2015 San Diego Comic Con

July 15, 2015 by Jill Harness 2 Comments

Rule 63 of the Internet says that for every pop culture character, there is another version of a different gender. This is particularly true of cosplay where costumers enjoy dressing up as their favorite characters regardless of gender. Some prefer to genderswap the costumes and imagine how the character would dress if he or she […]

Quirky, horrible and fun: A review of The Guild of Dungeoneering

July 14, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I was curious about the Guild of Dungeoneering but had only heard a little about it. I had heard you build the dungeon and add monsters while the hero automatically wanders around. A bit like Dungeon Keeper then, right? So I thought. I was wrong. The Guild of Dungeoneering is nothing like Dungeon Keeper. It’s […]

Does it work for you? The Suicide Squad Comic Con trailer

July 13, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood 4 Comments

What do you think? I like the reference to Superman, I’m somewhat reassured by Harley Quinn but I’m not sure about the rest. It feels like there’s an awful lot of characters for the movie to bring to life while finding an awkward balance of tone. Margot Robbie is there as as Harley Quinn, Jai […]

Competition: Win The Seventh Miss Hatfield

July 13, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

One way to describe The Seventh Miss Hatfield is as a cross between Pride and Prejudice with Doctor Who. We’re dealing with a young girl who grows up very quickly in strange circumstances and then becomes something of a time traveler. The “Seventh” in the title relates not to timelord regenerating but because our hero […]

Peter Adkison founded Wizards of the Coast and has gone on to become a filmmaker but he’s never left the RPG industry entirely behind. His latest project, Chaldea, will have its debut screening at Gen Con and it as a rich tabletop background. If you’re up at midnight and can get into the Westin Grand […]
