    Kingmaker campaign

    Since we wrapped up the Extinction Curse and the Carrion Crown campaigns, our group has been eager to know what the next story is. At this point, I am looking to run the full Kingmaker campaign as the next major adventure. This is one that we attempted a long time ago, but only ran the…

  • Carrion Crown progress

    With our 4th gaming session completed (Carrion Crown YouTube Playlist), the group is making rapid progress thru the storyline – at least rapid compared to prior campaigns. Crunching the numbers, our previous campaigns averaged about 12 sessions of 5 hours per Chapter, for the 6 chapter storyline. For Rise of the Runelords, that comes out…

  • Revised equipment cards

    As mentioned before, with this past game of Pathfinder, I rolled out a newly revised mechanic for equipment tracking. Keep in mind, we have a particularly large group of 10 players, many of which are either new, or still adapting to having to track their own gear. In the past, I have updated character sheets…

  • The Runelord has fallen

    With this last weekend, we finally reached the conclusion and successful end of our long running Rise of the Runelords Pathfinder campaign. Our campaign began back in June of 2016, and with a bi-weekly schedule, and 10 regular players, we have invested approximately 3300 combined hours in the storyline. Although we started back with the…

  • Rise of the Runelords Collectibles

    As a commemorative for our successful completion to the long running campaign (assuming the weather and schedules allow for our final session), I have been working on a collectible for each of the players. This is based off a design from Thingiverse for a dice case, which can also store a pencil and have a…

  • Pathfinder update

    The end is near for our ongoing Rise of the Runelords campaign, and yet, Karzoug continues to reach from his mountain perch and delay the group. In the most recent challenges, he summoned a snow storm that caused the cancellation of our latest game. Originally, we postponed until the following session, but we have several…

  • Assault on Xin-Shalast, Part 2

    We continued the Pathfinder campaign conclusion, with the second part of the assault on Karzoug’s citadel.  The group managed to finish off their first encounter with a full power Rune Giant, and then broke into the throne room, where they faced one of Karzoug’s generals.  However, the battle was relatively quick, thanks to a well…

  • Upcoming Pathfinder

    We continue the conclusion of the Pathfinder campaign this weekend, in one of the few remaining sessions.  At the end of the last one, the group had encountered their first Rune Giant, and interacted with an image of Karzoug – now fully aware of the groups activities and location.  We will see how long the…
