New episodes of the Darkblades drop about every two weeks and feature a canonical story taking place in Drunkeros. Each week will feature Michael “Thrifty Nerd” DiMauro (@thriftynerd) as DM, at least one player from of the Drunks and Dragons podcast with an assortment of special guests. This week we are joined by Nika Howard (@nika_howard), Cody (@codedude3), Matthew Morris …

It’s that time again for another book club!  Season 3 of Penny Dreadful is going to feature characters from “The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” by Robert Louis Stevenson.  So of course, we are here to read and dissect the book, starting with the first 3 chapters.  Along the way we talk …

Here we are – just a few feet from the from the battle we have been preparing for the last three days. Sure, there may be shiny knights and battle standards of Bahamut, but if you ask me, these are pretenders the great Wyrmking’s ideals. Which is just as fine for us. Means we won’t …

The American West is coming into vogue in a big way. Brandon Sanderson’s getting into it, Rae Carson has a new trilogy set there, and there’s also Vengeance Road, Under a Painted Sky, and Wake of Vultures. It’s an exciting time to be reading all these books, because they’re all so different from each other and so …

If you enjoyed our first look at Kingdom, and the 2D, side-scrolling, strategy, rogue-like got as deep into your brain as it did into mine, you may enjoy seeing what it takes to beat it. I have one semi-hilarious false start where I have an issue with a catapult and the back of my head, …

Look, I’m thrilled to bits that The Rook is getting an adaptation. Daniel O’Malley deserves all the money that can possibly be thrown at him, …

Welcome back to Magic Gatherings! We’ve spent the last few weeks talking about Standard and how the cards from Battle for Zendikar have helped shape it. But the Magic calendar waits for no column, and there’s already have a new release on the horizon: Commander 2015, the latest in Wizards’ now-annual multiplayer precon series. I won’t cover every …

I was never much afraid of the Corinthian. Oh, don’t get me wrong, he’s a good character. A great one. But mouths for eyes and a taste for eyeballs? It doesn’t really do it for me. Still, I have to admit to getting the delighted shivers–the kind you get sitting around a campfire telling ghost stories–when …

The gang finally reaches the “Army of Bahamut”. Quotes added because rumor has it that these Bahamut-heads are bad people who do not do nice things in the name of their dragon lord. When the devils said they were bad it was tough to believe them since, well, they are devils. But Erathis (!) also …
