Back at the beginning of the year, I decided that I was going to rework how I was doing my Fables first impressions/reviews, by just framing the whole thing as a multi-part review, looking at each adventure as it came out. Unfortunately, it looks like I’m only going to get to use this approach exactly one time, because the Fables

I’m pretty late to this party. I’m not sure if there is anything left to be said about Arcadia Issue 27, i.e. Sharkadia, that hasn’t already been said. But I’m going to try anyway. I mean, honestly, when it comes to reviewing content, I need to keep moving or feel like I’m going to die. Wait, isn’t that a trait

Let’s finish off our look at all of the subclasses currently available for playtest if you are a patron of Green Ronin’s Twilight Accord Patreon. This is a great project with a wonderful goal, so you should definitely back it, especially to get the context for some of these subclasses that lean more heavily into the setting background. To round

We looked at four of the Twilight Accord subclasses last time around. Let’s climb back into these playtests and take a look at another four. As I said last time around, I’m not looking at these in release order, I’m looking at them in class order, since I gathered all of them into my own PDF for my personal reference.

Once upon a time, I was going to start a series of articles looking at playtest material. This wasn’t like the playtest material that is all about redefining a game system for an updated release. This was the other kind of playtest. Like all those Unearthed Arcanas that we used to see for future product releases. New rule system. Subclasses

I’m a whole issue behind on looking at Arcadia, and since the magazine closes up shop in July, I don’t want to miss the chance to take a look at the individual issues. So even though we just saw the release of issue 27 a couple of weeks ago, let’s roll back the clock to those bygone days of about

Where has this month gone? We’re almost to May, and I’ve still got a few things to look at from way back at the beginning of the month. Before the next installment is upon us in a few days, let’s take a look at the most recent adventure in the Fables campaign Agents of the Empire, Trace of Deception. This

On my way to watch Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves for the first time, I remembered that I hadn’t finished reading through Thay: Land of the Red Wizards. The product is a DM’s Guild product written by Alex Kammer, Alan Patrick, and the creator of the Forgotten Realms, Ed Greenwood. One of my favorite AD&D 2e products was the

Let’s turn our attention back to Ghostfire Gaming’s current Fables campaign, Agents of the Empire. This is going to be our fourth installment looking at the campaign, although we’re only up to the third adventure in the series, since we looked at the setting guide as it’s own entry. The Smoking Coils is an adventure for 5th-level characters. Disclaimer I

We’ve reached the end of the book, so it’s time to look back over everything inside and make some broader observations. One of the things that I wanted to address right up front is that I noticed a lot of skepticism about this book online. Much of it was criticizing the concept without actually addressing the execution. There are other
