LEGIONS OF STEEL – MINIATURES GAME
I’ve always been a fan of miniatures. We used to buy the Ral Partha minis waaay back in the day and use them to represent our AD&D characters.

Dice… The core item of almost every game out there, and most certainly the most important element to any Dungeons and Dragons game. Be they magic or be they cursed? We’ve all had critical fumbles, fantastic critical strikes, and hundreds of reflex checks. I’m obsessed with my dice. Not thatContinue Reading
How to Defeat an Earth Elemental
