My friend (and I use that term loosely) Eric Lamoureux, aka MaskofWintert, and host of The Wild Die Podcast, posted this on G+ earlier today, and poked fun at me for my recent lack of posts.

 So this is what happens when you poke the Dragon, you get burned. :P

 This is the blog site of a certain Erik Schmidt, who's been gaming since the 1980's. According to his site, he's a big fan of Tabletop RPGs and truly wants to make them more accessible to newcomers and gives tips and ideas on how to get someone new to our wonderful hobby.


His site has many menu tabs at the top that cover various subjects such as ''About RPGs'' and ''Start PLaying'' for the newcomers, and ''Level Up'' for the new or experienced Game Master that could still use tips and tricks for their game sessions. Let's face it, even an experienced Game Master may need some new ideas to rejuvenate or re-energize their campaign, etc.

 There are many ways for you to reach out to Erik or find recent posts and blog entries:

SCI-FI MAPS ARE NOT A FICTION, THEY EXIST!

Here's a quick blog post about a new Kickstarter called '' Distant Frontiers Poster Map Set ''. 8 maps on Four double sided posters 22x34 inches each. They look really nice with plenty of details for your futuristic setting. Also, as of this writing, they less than 300$ from being funded, with 5 days left to their KS campaign. Some of the stretch goals look great too (arctic base camp, alien jungle, and maybe more? ).

Watch out! I'm building WORLDS here.

 Are you creating your own home brew setting or Game World? It doesn't matter whether you're also creating a your own RPG mechanics or using a multi-genre adaptable rule systems, such as GURPS, Savage Worlds, Genesys, etc. You might need a way to keep track of all your ideas, add to them, save some images and organize all that mess into something a bit more coherent. I've stumbled on a few web-based World Building tool kits to help you as an author, artist or RPG creator. Please note that some of these tools are not meant to manage an ongoing campaign per se, just the information that you are gathering for the game world itself. For a campaign manager, look more towards Obsidian Portal or Realm Works .  * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * The first one is called Milanote .  Link: Milanote Milanote is a tool for planning creative projects and is not geared specifically towards role-playing games. Any creative endeavor can benefit from this tool, whe...

Shaintar Character Builder and Adventure Generator

It's all about the story, right? Mr. Richard Woolcock’s savage-stuff.blogspot site is a great resource for all kinds of things. He’s put together a lot of source material for Savage Worlds and other rules system thru the years and a fellow gamer and member of the Nerds-International family Karlen ‘’of-the-hill-people’’ Kendrick has contributed as well. I will be writing about a recent game I ran and the reason I mention these guys and their resources. I recently ran a Shaintar One-Shot game for some friends, in Fantasy Grounds. I didn’t have as much time as I would’ve liked in order to prepare, so I used the website tool to give me an idea for a scenario (see the link below), and simply used some pre-gens from a previous One-Shot I had run last fall. link: Shaintar Adventure Generator The adventure generator is a great way to get ideas and inspiration, even if you’re not running a Shaintar campaign. Just substitute the appropriate element that suits your own setting...
