It was actually one of the most popular posts I ever wrote on this site (people still really seem to like zombies , go figure) so I thought it was time for a sequel. Last time the set-ups were pretty standard fare. Scenarios you've seen in many zombie movies, games and books. A rag-tag bunch of strangers, thrown together in an every day situation (a crashed bus, locked in a mall, hiding in a cabin in the woods) and they must survive the overwhelming onslaught of the undead. Death is rampant and expected (each player begins with four 0-level characters), and only the best (or more likely luckiest) will survive. This time a few of the scenarios are quite a bit weirder and may take some more prep work.

It's time for me to fantasy cast that every-elusive TV show that should have happened years ago, Dungeons & Dragons! A new Dungeons & Dragons movie is actually currently in the works, set to start filming next year and supposedly starring Ansel Egort (I'm not sure if that's the actor's name or his D&D character), but until this damn thing actually happens I'm going to keep making up my own show in my head. Hell, I'll probably keep doing it even after the movie comes out, because I assume it will be better than whatever Hollywood spews out anyway.

are short novellas, episodic in nature and feel a lot like the TV show Firefly where a crew of a ship gets up to silly hi-jinx while always looking for the next job, the next score, or the next get rich quick scheme. The whole time I was reading the series, I felt like there was potential for a  RPG to be based on this setting.  It has all the essentials - an easy to sum up background, potential for fun quirky characters, and a familiar enough feel to get the uninitiated in to it.  Keep this last point in mind while I tell this next part... Yep, this gets complicated.... A group of 6 or 7 of us have been playing a D6 Star Wars adventure fairly regularly for the past 4 months or so - typically meeting on Skype twice a month.  While not everyone can make it every time, we've managed to keep a fun adventure going with different characters popping in and out as available.  to ... </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden' href='https://www.ruleofthedice.com/2016/04/home-brew-black-ocean-rpg.html'></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-bottom'> <div class='post-footer float-container'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='byline post-comment-link container'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.ruleofthedice.com/2016/04/home-brew-black-ocean-rpg.html#comments' onclick=''> <svg class='svg-icon-24 touch-icon'> <use xlink:href='/responsive/sprite_v1_6.css.svg#ic_mode_comment_black_24dp' xmlns:xlink='http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink'></use> </svg> <span class='num_comments'> Post a Comment </span> </a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> </div> </div> <div class='jump-link flat-button ripple'> <a href='https://www.ruleofthedice.com/2016/04/home-brew-black-ocean-rpg.html' title='Home Brew Black Ocean RPG'> Read more </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article class='post-outer-container'> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post'> <script type='application/ld+json'>{ "@context": "http://schema.org", "@type": "BlogPosting", "mainEntityOfPage": { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://www.ruleofthedice.com/2016/04/roleplaying-blind.html" }, "headline": "Roleplaying Blind","description": "To clarify, this post has nothing to do about playing a visually-impaired character, or playing a game whilst being visually-impaired yours...","datePublished": "2016-04-25T15:12:00-04:00", "dateModified": "2016-04-25T15:12:22-04:00","image": { "@type": "ImageObject","url": "https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEga4dHJCT16YusUtvm8Fj43TdXtcDAP5BVMzhtS9EQfOisznqgLFvtUP69NOhDLvl26lA9RP8JAH5dF8J8IgHLD2pWvhiNuPw01MyddNUqFQEd3uI8-Ge4FNKDVD5VCj8AXAhn5fHFqHPpx/w1200-h630-p-k-no-nu/Poets%252Band%252BPiracy.jpg", "height": 630, "width": 1200},"publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Blogger", "logo": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/U2hvZWJveA/AVvXsEgfMvYAhAbdHksiBA24JKmb2Tav6K0GviwztID3Cq4VpV96HaJfy0viIu8z1SSw_G9n5FQHZWSRao61M3e58ImahqBtr7LiOUS6m_w59IvDYwjmMcbq3fKW4JSbacqkbxTo8B90dWp0Cese92xfLMPe_tg11g/h60/", "width": 206, "height": 60 } },"author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "C.D.

In retrospect, it was probably a terrible idea for a title. Sometimes it's nice to have no idea what you're doing. On Friday I went into a game with a nearly complete blank slate. As I've said in the past, it's very unusual for me to play in a game (instead of game mastering), so when a number of my regulars couldn't make it to our Star Wars campaign , I quite happily agreed to let one of the players run a game of his own. It meant a change of pace for everyone and a bit of a break for me. The game was a homebrew D6-hack based on JS Morin's " Black Ocean " series of novel s. I didn't know the system (it was the GM's own invention and his first time running it) and I've never read the books, so I had absolutely no knowledge of the setting.

On Saturday night I played what is rapidly-becoming one of my new favourite games, Dungeon World. (We'll ignore for a moment that one of the players brought a Super-Flu into the house that knocked out my entire family for 2 weeks, which is why it took me so long to write this). On Sunday morning, I played "Secret Lab" with my 4-year old son, which is basically sitting in a blanket fort making up "secrets," which usually end up being variations of "I stole treasure from the chocolate factory and hid it in the back yard." Guess what? Turns out they're both exactly the same game. Stick with me here. For those not familiar,  Dungeon World  is a "de-crunched" version of  Dungeons & Dragons  where the rules have been dialed back to allow more room for storytelling. It is of course based on another game,  Apocalypse World,  which is a similar set of rules used in a post-apocalyptic... </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden' href='https://www.ruleofthedice.com/2016/03/playing-rpgs-with-4-year-old-is-exactly.html'></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-bottom'> <div class='post-footer float-container'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='byline post-comment-link container'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.ruleofthedice.com/2016/03/playing-rpgs-with-4-year-old-is-exactly.html#comments' onclick=''> <svg class='svg-icon-24 touch-icon'> <use xlink:href='/responsive/sprite_v1_6.css.svg#ic_mode_comment_black_24dp' xmlns:xlink='http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink'></use> </svg> <span class='num_comments'> Post a Comment </span> </a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> </div> </div> <div class='jump-link flat-button ripple'> <a href='https://www.ruleofthedice.com/2016/03/playing-rpgs-with-4-year-old-is-exactly.html' title='Playing RPGs with a 4-Year-Old is Exactly the Same as Playing with 35-Year-Olds'> Read more </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article class='post-outer-container'> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post'> <script type='application/ld+json'>{ "@context": "http://schema.org", "@type": "BlogPosting", "mainEntityOfPage": { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://www.ruleofthedice.com/2016/02/revisiting-star-wars-greatest-rpg-of.html" }, "headline": "Revisiting Star Wars, the Greatest RPG of All Time","description": "It\u0026#39;s been five years since I started writing for Rule of the Dice, and a lot has changed in my life since then.

But of particular interest to this blog is how my outlook on and taste in role-playing games have changed. One of my first posts here was fawning over my favourite game of all time, the old D6 Star Wars RPG by West End Games. Recently I've started running a Star Wars campaign again for the first time in many years, thanks in part to the buzz and excitement provided by the first good Star Wars movie in many, many years. Yet playing this game again regularly for the first time since I was a kid has struck me with an odd thought: I'm not sure if I still like it as much anymore.

But now, for the first time in quite a while, Splatter Elf the game makes a triumphant return. The main character in Philip's stories is a half-elf mercenary obsessed with collecting swords, so I decided to stat out a few of her favourite weapons for use in Splatter Elf: The RPG . Now, these weapons are specifically designed for the SE version 0.3 rules, which have not been widely shared, but you get the idea. Also of note, these are completely unofficial versions of the weapons and how I envisioned them to be used in the game.

It was actually one of the most popular posts I ever wrote on this site (people still really seem to like zombies , go figure) so I thought it was time for a sequel. Last time the set-ups were pretty standard fare. Scenarios you've seen in many zombie movies, games and books. A rag-tag bunch of strangers, thrown together in an every day situation (a crashed bus, locked in a mall, hiding in a cabin in the woods) and they must survive the overwhelming onslaught of the undead. Death is rampant and expected (each player begins with four 0-level characters), and only the best (or more likely luckiest) will survive. This time a few of the scenarios are quite a bit weirder and may take some more prep work.

For those of you who are uncomfortable with this topic, you can stop reading now, and go here instead. Does love and sex have a place in table-top role-playing games? It obviously has a place in video RPGs, if Final Fantasy VIII and Dragon Age are any indication (WARNING: That second link is probably NSFW). But many players are uncomfortable acting this at the table and I can't really blame them. Sitting around the dining room table with four other sweaty guys drinking Dr. Pepper and eating Cheetos can make it hard to look into your friend's eyes and profess your undying love for him - I mean, his character, Mistress Clitoria Hexblade.

I usually end up on the DM side of the screen, which is cool because I generally enjoy it more anyway. But from time to time it's a nice change of pace to only have to worry about a single character instead of an entire world. It's also fun to throw down and beat the living daylights out of some monsters. My current D&D of choice, for better or for worse, is 4th Edition. The first time I got to run my own character in this edition was at last season's D&D Encounters event ( Keep on the Borderlands ), and I made the damn fool mistake of playing the cleric. ( See here for why Clerics, especially 4E Essentials clerics, suck. And while we're at it, here's a good argument for the suckiness of Monks). Next I tried a Gnome Bard for a high-level Living Forgotten Realms game, but that turned out almost as bad as the cleric. Seriously, what was I thinking?
