The world’s greatest superhero game
During the week following Father’s Day—which, for me, was overshadowed by my niece’s wedding—I managed to post over three dozen reviews to DriveThruRPG! I’ve been pushing hard (almost bordering on obsession, you might say) to work through a big backlog of items awaiting my review, and I’m finally down to just three pages of unreviewed …

I only found time to review one product for DriveThruRPG during the week of March 4–10, 2012, but it was a doozy: DC Adventures: Heroes & Villains, Volume 2! It’s a relatively long review, as these things go. I gave the product ★★★★; it fell short of ★★★★★ mainly because one of the decisions about …

During the week of February 27–March 5, 2011, I only managed to review two products for DriveThruRPG. Amazing Stories of World War II: Crown Guard by Charles Rice, Mike Lafferty, and Leon Chang for Vigilance Press.

The artwork is well …

My roomies got in late last night—well, technically, early this morning. I said “Hi,” rolled over, and went back to sleep. When I got up at 6:45, they were both snoozing soundly. So off I went! 9:00–10:00 AM, 4:30–5:30 PM, and 7:00–8:00 PM: Dungeon Delve I wrote yesterday about the dungeon delve event, though I …
I know you’ve been anxiously waiting to hear about my Origins experiences on Thursday. Well, here you go! (Oh, and it turns out the Columbus Convention Center does have some wi-fi hotspots, but they don’t extend throughout the entire facility, so you have to know where to look.) 10:00 AM–1:45 PM: Gotham City Showdown I …
Several years ago, Louis Porter, Jr. Designs published a series of Mutants & Masterminds supplements under the titles Power Corrupts, Power Corrupts 2, Power Assaulting, and Power United, using the company’s Devil’s Workshop imprint. For reasons that I don’t know anything about, LPJ lost (or allowed to expire, or whatever) its license to publish materials …
