Right now, I'm narrating three campaigns, though one of them is in a holding pattern. I'll be running a Mutants & Masterminds one-shot for an upcoming charity play (check out Bag of Giving, by the way), and I've got two Star Trek Adventures campaigns ongoing, like I mentioned last week. And while I'm generally Mr. … Continue reading Tabletop Tuesday — Deck of Worlds, or “What to do when your idea well dries up before a session.”
Tabletop Tuesday — Supporting Characters, or “The O’Brien Effect”
Hey! It's Tuesday, so it's time to talk nerdily about games. Over the past few months, I've been running two Star Trek Adventures games, a Tabletop Role Playing Game put out by Modiphius, and I have to say I've been freaking loving it.

Tabletop Tuesday — Two Players, Competition
Last week, I popped in with some of my best experiences of co-operative games with two players, and this week I figured I'd flip that and list the "versus" style games my husband and I have enjoyed on our trip through the gaming jar. The gaming jar was our way of trying out all our … Continue reading Tabletop Tuesday — Two Players, Competition
