Being Your GM’s Best Player

A lot of people talk about what it means to be a good Game Master and how to make your players happy. Well, I'm going to tell you players that it's not all about you. If your GM is not happy with the party, then he is going to make things difficult - if not downright...

Being Your Player’s Best GM

Often times people think that being a Game Master means simply having a story that you want to tell, writing some names down, and then throwing some monsters in for the players to fight. While this is true for the game side of things, what people (and many players)...

Introducing New Systems

Back in the Saddle

Re-purposing paint chips / cards

Re-purposing paint chips / cards

A few years ago I was running a Star Wars game (Saga) and started cannibalizing some old D20 modules.  One of them was Head Trip  written by Jeff Grubb.  I used it more or less as written re-stated for Saga.  Depending on how the players react to the various...

DIY Pillars

DIY Pillars

When we picked up D&D again with 4th edition we went very low tech.  I think most of us picked a mini for our characters but for pretty much everything else we used lego minifigs.  Red colored minis were kobolds, green were goblins and orcs.  We eventually...
