Cartography in RPGs–My take on maps
Recently there was a discussion about maps and I found very interesting people’s takes on maps and on the need and purpose of maps in role playing games. This is my take on them.
Designers & Dragons
When I heard about Designers & Dragons from Mongoose, I downloaded it right away. I started to read it and after a while I had to stop. I just couldn’t continue. I had to go and buy the paper version of the book. My fascination with role playing games has increased by understanding the politics and history behind them.
Review – Venture Forth
Adventure games. Love’em. Being a fanboy of strong theme as a key criteria in my board games, adventure games are generally a sweet spot for me. They come in all shapes and sizes, many of which are in fantasy worlds a la Tolkien’s Middle Earth, etc. To be honest, I can’t think of any off the top of my head that are set in the world of Ancient Greek mythos, so Venture Forth seems at first pass, to be a refreshing departure from the fantasy stuff that keeps getting processed through our gaming tables.
