There are ways of imparting dynamic life to a background and to characters that are hard work and ways that are easy. This is one of the easy ways. This is the latest in my series of time-out posts in between the Trade In Fantasy series. I’m concurrently reading two books right now: Dr Who […]

 The Scope of Space
Posted: Mon, 05 May 14:22:00
Category: Game Mastering, Mike, Superhero Games
Many authors have tried to explain how vast space, and the universe contained within it, really are, usually with less than total success, though with each attempt, some few are reached. This is both something that Sci-Fi GMs need to understand and yet, often hand-wave. I have thought of another approach, one that is strictly […]

 Trade In Fantasy Ch. 4: Modes Of Transport, Pt 5
Posted: Mon, 28 Apr 22:34:57
Category: Campaign Management, D&D / Pathfinder, Game Mastering
Weather At Sea can be considered to comprise several of the unluckiest things that can and will happen to a ship, so it’s somewhat appropriate that this is the dominant subject of the thirteenth part of this series! Believe it or not, the entire weather system presented in the post was designed on a single […]

 Trade In Fantasy Ch. 4: Modes Of Transport, Pt 4

Finally! After the diversions caused by Rafts and boats, today the series focuses on Ships at sea, with a bonus sci-fi section or two on the side. The original plan was to also include Weather at Sea and Exotic Transportation Modes but the former has quickly grown to the point where the post would not […]

Running a campaign is a lot easier if there’s a clear process that maximizes opportunities for success and avoids the worst traps and pitfalls. Campaign Mastery has again been recognized as one of the top 20 blogs devoted to the subject of RPGs. Given the caliber of the opposition, I consider this to be a […]

 Campaign Workflow For GMs Pt 1

Category: Beginners, Campaign Creation, Campaign Management
Starting and Running a campaign is a lot easier if there’s a clearly understood process that maximizes the opportunities for success and avoids the largest traps and pitfalls. As usual, I worked on the next part of Trade In Fantasy until it became clear that it wasn’t quite going to be ready in time, then […]

 Trade In Fantasy Ch. 4: Modes Of Transport, Pt 3
Posted: Mon, 31 Mar 13:15:30
Category: Campaign Management, D&D / Pathfinder, Game Mastering
Today’s post focuses on Rafts and small boats like Kayaks and Canoes. The defining trait of such vessels is that while they can have sails, their primary motive power derives from the use of oars or paddles. It’s taken quite a bit longer than I intended, due to a fundamental truism of publishing, at least […]
