There’s an old gaming axiom: never split the party. Sure it started with D&D, but it is equally true for every other RPG out there. There are many, MANY reasons why, but really they can be boiled down to just three. 1) It’s Boring For Everyone Else The GM and half the group are doingContinue reading “3 Reasons Why You Should Never Split the Party”
3 Rules for Incorporating Character Backstories
The nice things about the long adventure books of D&D or Pathfinder Adventure Paths is that they make the brunt of the work of creating a long campaign off the GMs shoulders.

3 Rules For When The Encounter Goes Bad
All of us GMs have been there. We create an encounter that we think will be a cake walk for the players and they roll terribly.

Sure the businessperson in me says that the lawContinue reading “Why We Play the Games We Do”

Pathfinder: Are You Switching to 2e?
When I ask a question, anticipating a certain answer is when I get the most surprising answers. Recently on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Instagram, and MeWe, we asked two simple questions: are you still playing Pathfinder 1e, and do you see yourself changing to 2e (or the playtest) anytime soon?
