Dungeons and Dragons Starter Kit
ders of this blog already know, I’m not a big fan of the current direction of Dungeons & Dragons, an opinion I’ve held sincebefore the release of D&D IV.

Cold City
Cold City, from Contested Ground Studios, is one of the most innovative RPGs I’ve played in a long time.
