New X-Files series trailer

September 30, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The X-Files is coming back to TV. There will be a six-episode “event series” from Chris Carter that’ll run on Fox in the US. Hopefully it’ll escape America and make it to Europe as well – Fox does have a channel in the UK. David Duchovny is back as Fox Mulder and Gillian Anderson is […]

What if… Borg sea battles

September 30, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

What if the Federation was an alliance of countries and the Borg some previously unknown and deadly enemy from over the sea? Mix that up with a bit of magic technology, throw in some Master and Commander battles and you might end up with a scene like this fantastic piece from Mirsad Agic. You can […]

Multiplying Bizarre by Impossible: a review of anomaly 1

September 30, 2015 by Paul Baldowski Leave a Comment

I have always been a sucker for those art books that never seem to surface anymore. Possibly, I’m looking in the wrong place. Amongst my more treasured books and annuals, I have several examples of this phenomenon from the 70s and 80s. Huge, hardback and glossy books packed with pictures of spacecraft or bizarre landscapes. […]

Cubicle 7’s Lone Wolf Adventure Game boxed set enters Joe Dever’s world of Magnamund and allows you to take on the role of Kai Initiates.

Winter is Coming poster

September 29, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I rather like this limited edition print from Antoine Corbineau. For €50 you get a stylised Westeros that’s not too grim and yet feels appropriate to Game of Thrones. Tempted? Check out the product page and more art.

Why D&D characters never go to Valhalla

September 29, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Valhalla is the afterlife of Viking warriors. It is a great hall where the feast and celebrations carry on until the end of the world. This is your reward for a battle death! Except if you’re a D&D character and you’d rather level up! (Via Rock Paper Cynic)

Up close and personal: A review of MCM Scotland Comic Con

September 28, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Did you cosplay in Glasgow this year for the MCM Comic Con? You might see yourself in the montage video of smartphone shots in this review. Let us know in the comments below. Bigger? Better? I think so. Let’s jump to the controversy first. I wasn’t convinced by the location of the main theatre. It […]

Fed up with boring dice towers?

September 23, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

The Empirical Innovation team have created a dice tower that looks a lot like a fairground slide. And why not? Who says dice shouldn’t have run on their way down to roll a critical failure that results in your favourite character falling off a mountain? (Via Nerd Approved)

September 23, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The day Vader and Boba Fett team up to disguise their dark side Force powers as electro is the day the Rebels should give up.
