So, I've been playing Urbandead, a free MMORPG set in a city overrun by zombies. (www.urbandead.com) It's amazing how quickly people spook and run.

So, we played Scott's new, oriental-theme D&D campaign on Sunday. It was pretty damn cool. We're using a ton of variant rules, and Scott's taken some cues from Andy Collins' "Umber" campaign (www.andycollins.net). Here are some of the variants: you can't have more than half your character levels (rounded down) in a single spellcasting class, we ( Read more... )
