The PDF details rug and tapestry merchant Vartan Nazarian, a potentially helpful halfling for adventurers to know.

OgreCave Review: Slayer’s Guide to Duergar
Mongoose Week continues with Joe’s review of Slayer’s Guide to Duergar. These dwarves of the deep caves made for an interesting read, and Joe’s got the breakdown of what makes this d20 supplement work so well. We’ll be picking up the pace with several more Mongoose product reviews as the
Not a Gully Dwarf…But Close
Aside from the oft-abused 2nd Edition Gully Dwarf (my favorite class of all time) the Gnome is probably the most abused and ridiculed race in the history of gaming. If you were to make a Gnome Bard I can’t imagine getting any gaming done for all the jokes. Well, Wizards

Crimson Skies Playtest Report, or: Rules-bogeys at 12 o’clock
If you’re accustomed to other WizKids combat-dial games, the CS Air Action rules are going to throw you some curve balls. Sadly, due to vague technical writing, those curve balls may hit you right in the unmentionables the way they did my test opponent, a MechWarrior fan. Here’s what you
They Have the Huevos
So, which game has the worst art I’ve seen in a while, but gets great laughs and good sales here at KublaCon? Pimps & Hos by Over the Edge Games. Nearly every gamer here has felt compelled to pick up and read a copy, if merely out of disbelief. Yes
Live from KublaCon ’03
Okay, first: wristbands suck. If anyone out there is planning a con, maybe you’re thinking about those locking wristband things as a handy, secure way of replacing those nastily tradeable, fakeable badges. Don’t do it. You will drive away any clientele who are not geeks and, hence, have other places
New Site Facilitates Death by Lupucide
Cell Entertainment has launched a new website that’s rather slick. Check out the new minis they’ll be releasing soon, order stuff if you like, and find out if Lupucide is even remotely like what I’ve implied. I’m thinking along the lines of “death by ravenous wolves,” but you be the
OgreCave Reviews: Light Speed & Shady Gulch
Another pair of reviews has arrived, ready for all to see. Matthew explores the outer reaches of Cheapass Games’ Light Speed, co-designed by James Ernest and Tom Jolly. Meanwhile, Demian kicks at tumbleweeds as he reviews Shady Gulch from Politically Incorrect Games.
I Guess the Wayans Brothers Need the Work
Gaming Report has posted a short message so shocking that I hesitate to even broach the subject (and I am not talking about the rumored Giuffria reunion). There are apparently plans to release a sequel to the rightly panned Dungeons and Dragons movie in 2004. That is about all that
Again with the MechWarrior: new expansion in August
MWRealms has quality discussion on Liao Incursion, a 124-piece expansion for MechWarrior due in August. Lovely new features include abilities you only get access to if you have some “faction purity” in your army (that’s not a direct quote, but my interpretation of speculation). That’s three MW expansions this year,
