in I hate my players. May 2012

I have experienced simular issues with groups I have been a player with and GM'ed. The cure for this is not simple. What I suggest is writing up a questionaire for the group. Ask things like; what are your characters goals, dreams, hopes, desires, e…

in Help! Im an unexperienced DM and need inspiration May 2012

At the star of every campaign I give the players a questionaire to help me understand their needs and desires. Now my current game is not a fantasy game but the questions could be modified to fit your needs. Once you understand what they players ar…

in New ways to die May 2012

I had my arm chopped off by my own son who then beat me into unconsciousness. When I awoke I was bound and had to watch him rape and butcher the rest of the family before turning on me with a sledge hammer. It was a rather traumatic night of gaming.

in Death of a player "Character" [no one was actually harmed in the making of this post] April 2012

Call of Cthulhu, Stormbringer, and Ravenloft campaigns both have real high player death ratios. I kind of miss my days tramping around dingy little towns, running for my life from Deep Ones and Ghouls.

Phoenixmark- Redundancy is a great thing when your page becomes information intensive. I often get lost in my own site while looking for something. I wish I had taken the time early on to add all the back buttons and cross cut links. ~Steve …

in RPG business model advise March 2012

Marketing is the main thing. If you have a semi developed game, I would start hitting cons all over the country and spotlighting your game. As you make contacts you create a customer base. Then after showcasing the game at a dozen or so cons, set up…
