Our own Helm’s Deep part II
Last night saw the end of the PC’s role as the Heroes of Redhold, an Avvarian settlement in the Frostback Mountains of Ferelden, and it ended on a kick ass note that truly showed how much stunts can turn the tide of battle in the Dragon Age RPG. FIrst, a quick recap, and be warned, […]
Our own Helm’s Deep
I ran a real neat encounter in my Dragon Age game, and I thought I’d share it here, along with some ideas you could steal from it for your game, whether its D&D, DA, or something else. The encounter isn’t mine, it’s part of a published adventure found in the excellent “Blood in Ferelden” supplement […]
More on Star Wars using AGE
On my off time I’ve been quietly working (for fun) on a Star Wars conversion of the first 5 levels of Dragon Age. I’m not spending too much time on it, but I admit that the prospect of an AGE powered Star Wars game is appealing to me, if not for nostalgia alone, as the […]
GM worksheets for Dragon Age
I originally posted this article and the accompanying sheets over at the Dragon Age Oracle blog, but wanted to bring them over here as well. I hope someone gets some use out of them, and enjoys their old school look and flavor. I recently got my hands on the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Dungeon […]
It’s all in the presentation
“We haven’t seen a Dungeon yet, all we’re doing is talking to people, bringing down corrupt political figures, and killing monsters out in the wilderness. This is really different.” My 4e campaign consisted of my homebrew storyline, which was the backdrop for the published adventures I hacked a bit to fit my storyline. By the […]
Transitioning from 4e to Dragon Age
My experience as a DM has been a unique one compared to a lot of other DM’s out there. I suspect many people DM’ing D&D started out early on, with the boxed sets, then AD&D, and followed the logical footsteps of the game up until the point where we are today with D&D 4e. My […]
The Dragon Age in a galaxy far, far away…
After seeing the absolutely kick ass fan produced version of the Mystara campaign setting for the AGE system (Dragon Age’s engine), I am now more than ever inspired to slowly work on a Star Wars version (or at least attempt to contribute to one). One thing’s for sure, my inspiration for doing something like this […]
A handout on the Dragon Age world for DM’s and PC’s
We officially started our Dragon Age campaign, and one of the biggest hurdles we are facing is the introduction to a completely new setting. While I’ve played the video game, none of my players have, so it was up to me to introduce them to Thedas. I played all the intro animations from the video […]
A potential new direction for my blog…
So as I’ve written before, my home 4e game is dead, my players have moved on, and it seems that for the time being there’s no more D&D for us. So, without playing D&D, there’s not much I can write about D&D, right? Well, that’s true to an extent… I am still going to be […]
