March 2014 Blog Carnival: Five Days Left!

Bygamingballistic

There are five days remaining in the RPGBA Blog Carnival for March 2014!

The topic is VTTs, Online Gaming, and (by extension), computer gaming aids.

There’s lots to talk about here. My post from earlier this week, where I actually discuss my experiences with Fantasy Grounds, formed after interviewing +Doug Davison , was quite widely read.

So: do you have personal experiences with VTTs and gaming online? What do you like? What do you NOT like? What features are the bare bones inclusion of what you feel are a minimum feature set for a VTT? What is a nice-to-have that content creators fuss over but really, in the end, doesn’t help boost the experience?

Inquiring minds want to know. So write it, post it, and share!

If you need grist for your mill, check out the comments in the original post, as well as the Firing Squad interviews carried out on this topic.

Musings about the Steve Jackson Interview – Part 1

Bygamingballistic

I interviewed +Steve Jackson, who of course wrote and published the game system for which I write, GURPS. +Jeffro Johnson said nice things about the interview. Steve and I covered a lot of ground, much of which could have elicited an even larger response than I made during the interview itself.  I’m going to excerpt parts of the…

Naval Cannons in DnD – Responding to a comment

Bygamingballistic

+Christian Gelacio had a good comment on my post on Naval Cannon. Good enough that I didn’t want to relegate the discussion to that post. So here’s my response in full. His comments are going to be in bold/purple. Mine will be in regular text and indented. I do not believe it would be appropriate for…
