		<title>5 Reasons Why You Should Check Out Fudge</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For some reason Fudge, the roleplaying game by Steffan O’Sullivan back in the nineties, is something like the unloved uncle to the popular FATE system. A lot of gamers have heard about FATE, especially after Evil Hat released the Dresden Files Roleplaying Game, which uses the latest version of the FATE rules, but only a [...]]]></description>

		<title>My Motivation for Writing an Adventure</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently announced that I was writing a Dungeons &#38; Dragons 4th edition adventure. Progress on this project has been steady.

		<title>Come to me my jungle friends!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recent events in my life have me thinking about pets. Be they familiars, animal companions or summoned animals, whatever way your system of choice calls them, why do we feel the urge to have pets in our games? I can see why… The joy and happiness they bring into our real lives is one we [...]]]></description>

		<title>Review: Lone Wolf Multiplayer Game Book and Heroes of Magnamund</title>

The Lone Wolf books focus on the world of Magnamund, where  the forces of good and evil fighting over control. The protagonist is Lone Wolf, the last member of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Are mini-campaigns the solution?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Back in the day, when we were still young and had too much time on our hands, we played in long campaigns, sometimes even spanning years. But in recent years I haven’t finished any campaign properly. Either we lost interest in the game or the group dissolved before the campaign has reached a satisfactory conclusion.

		<title>Lazy Friday Video Post: &#8220;John Madden: Dungeon Master&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am probably not as familiar with the exploits of John Madden as some of my American readers, but I found this video funny nevertheless. Please enjoy! By the way, have you ever had to deal with a “replacement dungeon master” and things got wrong? If so, please tell us about it in the comments [...]]]></description>

Recently there was some more discussion about the OSR on Twitter and on various blogs. The whole drama was started [...]]]></description>

		<title>The one RPG I wholeheartedly recommend to any gamer is &#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In my case it’s Savage Worlds. Savage Worlds is a generic roleplaying game that allows you to run games in any genre, the rules are easy to learn but have a certain complexity that will not disappoint more tactically-minded players. In fact Savage Worlds can easily be used as miniature strategy game, or you can [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’ll admit it, naming non-player characters and places in role playing game is HARD! If you are not careful you’ll end up with names your players will make fun of for years to come. The noble and serious NPCs that will be the key to the plot will not be remembered for his generosity or [...]]]></description>

		<title>Eureka!</title>

I’ve read about Eureka before and since I am chronically under-prepared for my games, it looked like the perfect book for me. So he send me a copy and I was immediately blown away! So what’s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Trying something new…</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’ve never been particularly handy. I’ll write, talk in public, and I can tell a pretty good yarn (or so I’ve been told), but I’m not great with cars or home repair. I’ll hook up your computer or your home theater, but don’t ask me to fix the plumbing; I just don’t have the skill [...]]]></description>

		<title>Review: The Savage World of Solomon Kane</title>

I think the first time I heard about Solomon Kane was when Pinnacle Entertainment announced “The Savage World of Solomon Kane”. When I started doing some research in the subject matter I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Food &amp; Games</title>

Junk food and role-playing games are connected in poplar culture, and in all truth some games will devour prodigious amounts of chips and soda. Undoubtedly some groups try [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why I ordered the D&amp;D Essentials &#8220;Red Box&#8221; after all</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As you all know I am not that fond of D&#38;D 4th Edition. While I loved a lot of the changes from D&#38;D 3.5 when I first read the new core books, I didn’t like how combat worked in D&#38;D 4th Edition. For me I totally lost immersion in the game world in the moment [...]]]></description>
