Painting walls, hauling furniture and chatting with ChattyDM for the better part of a day can yield some interesting discussions. While I've been planting the seeds of a return to DnD within my old gaming group, my DM (let's call him Steve, because that's his name) is considering selling his…
As some of you might know, ChattyDM.net is soon to "close" and be merged with Critical Hits - another pretty cool RPG blog. I was goofing off in Chatty's comment board and suggested he get himself an audio bumper for when users switch to his category on the new Web…
Wow are things slower than slow around here! People who know me in the net might have noticed my prolongated absence these last few weeks (or have they been months?) Lots of stuff happening in real life slowing this end of my activity spectrum. A large chunk of it is…
Just about every time I met up with ChattyDM and his merry group of gamers, we end up playing a game of Dominion. I've taken an instant liking to this game and ended up buying it for myself during the holidays. The game is what I would call a "Deck…

Hi reader(s)! I finally had a few minutes away from work and taking care of my babies to try and write something interesting in here. Here's something from the PHB 4th edition I actually don't like: Thrown Weapons: Any magic light thrown or heavy thrown weapon, from the lowly +1…
ChattyDM has been chatting a lot about sentient dungeons these last times and even started a campaign incorporating the concept. While its not necessarily a new, original concept, I find it fascinating to wonder about. One of my friends has been working very hard these last few months (or is…
The Setup Here's what I was planning on running on our last game: While escorting the caravan, our heroes met with Lady Adelinde, a widowed noblewoman in search of valiant heroes to help her find the body of her deceased husband. Lady Adelinde's husband has been missing and she has…
