An oldie – but a goodie. In fact, this video deserves more than the 80,000 or so views it’s had since being uploaded in 2011. The visuals come from the classic and unfortunately never concluded Dungeons & Dragons cartoon. The voice track? Not so much. This is a perfectly timed actual game of D&D as […]
RPG Ideas: Noteboards are perfect for maps
You can see where I’m going wit this suggestion; I hope. Noteboards (US, CA | UK) would be perfect for any gamer group who likes to mock up maps for models to help visualise combat. The noteboards fold away to almost nothing so they will not take up space. Space is so often the reason […]

Team Fire Ferrets: Avatar Disney mashup
This fantastic piece from Robby Cook stars Kida (from Atlantis: The Lost Empire) as Avatar Korra, Shang (from Mulan) as firebender Mako and Flynn Ryder (from Rapunzel) as earthbender Bolin. An extra shout out to Flynn Rider for being one of the few Disney characters to ask why everyone keeps on singing.
