Indie RPG publishers create TableTopLibrary.com

Where do you do you go for your RPG ebooks or print on demand services? The chances are you’ll visit a OneBookShelf property in the form of DriveThruRPG or RPGNow. Alternatively you might go straight to the publisher’s site; especially a trip to Paizo for Pathfinder fans. As of today there’s a new option in […]

It’s a fact that in every fantasy roleplaying game, whether it’s Pathfinder RPG, Dungeons & Dragons, or Castles & Crusades, a kobold’s life is short. They’re wily and quick, but they have few hit points. […]
