New Year, Old Themes & New Blogs

I've Always Loved the Art From Dragon Warriors - One of the Best Systems I've Never Played

And no, I'm not talking about my other 2 blogs (that have been pretty much neglected as I'e been fighting  off my illness).  New blogs that have hit the RPG scene.  Or new blogs to me.  Or blog that have recently hit their stride.  Or whatnot.  So, I'll be bringing back the "Overlooked Blog Collection", where I highlight a blog I feel has been overlooked.  Aiming for once a week, but time will tell.

I'm also going to go back and re-explore the virtual table tops I own.  Yes, own, as in purchased.  Okay, I'll look at Maptools too, but I'll be putting fresh eyes on Fantasy Grounds 2, BattleGrounds RPG, iTableTop/Pandoren (which is free now, but expensive as all hell when i bought TWO lifetime licenses - but it went to a good cause), Klooge (if I can find my codes), ScreenMonkey, EpicTable (currently in Beta) and any others you might want to point me in the direction of.

It's a New Year, and I'm gonna run some gosh darned RPG campaign in 2012!  And it's gonna be via a VTT, cause that way I can play in my underwear and no one can complain (unless it's via iTableTop / Skype / Google+ or anything else with video - then I'll have to be presentable).  That, and it really cuts down on the game commute.

(in the meantime, feel free to read my previous look at Fantasy Grounds 2)

  1. I'm in for fantasy grounds if you go that route.

  2. I'm doing a series of write-ups over at Underworld Cleaning Service about Dragon Warriors. I just found out about this game recently when I got the book on sale at my FLGS. It looks great though! Gritty. Good rules. Much more subtle magic. I haven't played it yet but it looks good.
