The Stochastic Game

Looks like all interesting children books start with a 12 year old main character… What recommendations do you have for 8-11yo readers besides Harry Potter and Roald Dahl stories?

Warm-up sketches! Doing a few basic random #Glorantha clan people.

I’ve been playing the first Monkey Island (remastered) with the kids and… let’s say there’s been a lot of pirate insults thrown around lately. Also: they love speaking like Stan the salesman, especially the manic hand waving!

I am completely baffled by how the 13th Age rulebook assumes prior knowledge of D&D: it doesn’t list or explain character abilities! The only list is a short parenthetical (p30), and the only explanation is in the index entry (p310+).

I had a whole bunch of leftover cardboard boxes from all those RPG books I ordered recently… so I had to do something with them! What do YOU do with your cardboard? (and yes I need to add some Runes and decorations)

I found a stash of old unused stickers so I decided to decorate my old Linux laptop!

I’ve got the week off so I figured I would start it by updating my RPG book collection over on RPGGeek… I have now passed the 400 items mark! Errr…. yay?

Well that’s it, I’m officially a Kickstarter “superbacker” now apparently. Does that mean I have a problem? Should I hold off on backing RPGs? More importantly is there a way to hide this from my wife? 😅

That’s a pretty good video on Moore’s run on Marvelman. I want to re-read those books now! https://www.youtube.com

The Boy was a decent movie with a fun (though ultimately unoriginal) twist. The Boy 2 takes that twist, turns it around, and fucks it up into the stratosphere of stupidity. Uugggh.
