And then there’s KillaCampaigns, a web application for storing and sharing characters and other campaign data and handouts. I’m still trying to figure out precisely what’s going on in there, but it looks like it might be useful. But then, if my players have a harder time figuring it out

Troll Lord Games announced The Hermit, a new D20 module by Gary Gygax. The world still has yet to see The Canting Crew, the previously announced rogueish sourcebook by Gygax. Does the old master still have it? The Hermit will apparently borrow a trick from Atlas’ Coriolis line, providing rules

With the Warchon PBG at the printers (no, that’s Playmark Book Game, not Peanut Butter and Gummi bears), Z-Man Games wanted to give the gaming community a pre-release taste of the upcoming game system. To that end, a PDF Warchon demo is available for all to peruse. With a little

Citizen Games has just announced the addition of Gareth-Michael Skarka as their Mafia Line Developer. You know Gareth, right? He designed Underworld, the original Hong Kong Action Theatre! and has freelanced for several other systems. Well, now he’ll be guiding the Mafia Role Playing Game, which, as the press release

We’ve been busy lurking in the background for a while, but we’re starting April’s barrage of new OgreCave tidbits with an interview and a review. First, Demian gets some answers out of Deep7 Publishing, the folks responsible for Arrowflight, the 1PG RPGs, and the upcoming Red Dwarf RPG. Then Matthew

The latest monthly free game from Invisible City Productions is up and ready to be played. Syzygy, “the game of lunar connections,” is a board game in which players travel around (or on) the moons of Jupiter, trying to position themselves so that they can gain energy from lunar confluences.

Only 2.25 hours left until 12pm PST, which will bring an end to our Car Wars “Borrow the Car” contest. Hurry and read the rules (don’t worry, they’re short) and get your entry to us before midnight on bunny day. A quick hundred words or less convincing your dad to

ICv2 brings the pain: Frank Frazetta’s Death Dealer hits from Cell in time for Gen Con. It’s a little disconcerting to read reportage on minis games that seems to believe WizKids invented them, but then again, ICv2’s core audience is comics fans and retailers who only dabble in games –

The same source that told me BFG was coming back into print in September (and insists there was a press release about it at some point) says that “the current edition” of Talisman in fact refers to the last one to go out of print. He’s the only coherent source

If anyone needs another reason to hate Games Workshop, how about this: terminal vagueness. In this article about unpublished Talisman characters (PDF), designer Jervis Johnson keeps talking about “the current edition.” Current? Like, five-years-out-of-print current? More than that? Three-hundred-dollars-on-eBay current? Jeez. So it’s all just mean-spirited teasing about the new

The Angel’s Curse expansion for the popular Buffy the Vampire Slayer CCG hits shelves today in the US and Canada. I wasn’t aware that they were starting from way back in Season 1, but I guess they are. I also wasn’t aware that I would ever have a head full

Only a couple days left in our “Borrow the Car” contest. If you haven’t done so already, go read the rules (don’t worry, they’re short) and get your entry to us before midnight PST on Sunday. Just a hundred words or less convincing your dad to give you the car

Mean Streets: The RPG of Classic Film Noir, a complete downloadable game with a planned line of supplements, is coming soon from Three-Sixty Publishing, who have not only licensed the XPG system from fellow PDF-meisters Deep7, but will be selling through Deep7’s web site. Three-Sixty has a number of other

I admit it – I forgot to go to Gamegrene for a while. So I only just found this article. It certainly looks like a catch-22: too many revised editions and supplements and people complain about being bled dry, too few and they’ll say it’s a “dead game.” However, there’s

Dear God, help us.
