Wanted: Iphone Carcasonne Opponemts
“Carcasonne” on the iPhone is great fun, but I currently only have a few friends with IPhones to play with and I prefer more players in my games. So I send out this plea (challenge?) to those among my readership that would enjoy crushing me in a game of “Carcasonne. ” Please send game requests [...]
Trask Lives!
Let the gaming blogosphere know fear as I have returned! ;-) After several weeks of annoyance, my clumsiness-induced broken arm is on the mend and I am now back to full-speed typing. I want to take a moment to thank Tyler Tinsley, Ashy of the Wandering Men and Chris Dias of Dias Ex Machina Games [...]
Kickstarter: Gaming Paper Adventures–65 Square Feet of Dungeon Map!
Gamingpaper.com has a new project up on Kickstarter for role-playing gamers. The new idea is “Gaming Paper Adventures.” GP created a massive, double-sided, 100 page dungeon map that you assemble yourself into a map…a really large map. Titled “The Citadel of Pain,” the map supports a module of the same name and several pending PDF [...]
Livingdice.com Gets a Speed Boost–Please Notify Me of Any Issues
I made some significant modifications to the site today and need some help with testing. I removed a lot of obsolete javascript from the site, installed a content delivery service (an extra server to provide faster image downloads), changed hosting to a grid-based system and did a general plug-in cleanup on WordPress. Bottom line is [...]
Trask Wounded in Battle With A Mop–Posts Limited for a Few Weeks–Guest Bloggers Welcome
After a slip and fall on my kitchen floor(damn all mops!), I am now the proud owner of a broken elbow. Not serious, but it prevents me from typing two-handed until the fracture heals. Stuart, my collaborator, will get the occasional post up, but I am out of action for the duration. If there are [...]
Current Role-Playing Game Forums Suck–Should I Add One to Livingdice?
Enworld and RPG.net are the clear leaders role-playing game discussions within the gaming community. That said, these communities are now so massive that finding anything is nearly impossible and threads quickly reach “War and Peace” in length. If that were not bad enough, the level of discourse on these sites often degenerates to the lowest [...]
My New Role-Playing Games Store is Online!
Role-playing-games-store.com is a new web site dedicated to, unsurprisingly, selling role-playing games. Yes, the content for the site comes from Amazon, but its real value is the fact I set it up with more rational categories. Role-playing games on Amazon are one giant category, whereas role-playing-games-store.com categories are things like “Kenzerco,” “Warhammer,” “Dungeons and Dragons” [...]
Livingdice’s Aces & Eights: Last Man Standing Shootout at Gen Con 2010–We Have a Winner!
Actually we have two winners. Yes, I said two. 16 brave souls entered the ruined church in the peaceful town of Harmony. Only one could emerge victorious. After much carnage, two gunfighters stood toe to toe with murder in their eyes and hot steel in their hands. On one side, a lowly cowpoke with poor [...]
I Own Eoris
Update: Eoris released at Gen Con 2010! Check out my Eoris Review. I bought the Eoris set and will have a review up in the very near future. I will tease you with a shot of the sleeve and books. iPhone camera, so apologies for the low quality.
