Tabletop RPG Podcast and Roleplaying Resources
I’m currently playing with the upcoming QuestWorlds RPG. You can check out the free SRD of the game here. It has a really interesting narrative mechanic that dates back around 20 years.

So, I did some digging and here are some ideas on how we can create Dralasite minis that look good in the scale we’re using. Continue reading
This is a self-reflection on my home-brew wargaming roadmap. I’ve got a combination RPG and skirmish wargame system in the works which uses a base set of core rules for each products.
