John Hanna plays Dark Lord’s Doom, by David Pulver, as a GM’d adventure instead of as a solo at GaryCon 2022.
This isn’t the first time it’s been done as a convention adventure, and for low-prep, high-reward fun this one and Dragon Hunt! both play well as GM’d adventures. Dragon Hunt! in particular was brutal during playtest even with multiple 38-point PCs, so tuning it to a full table of lower-level adventures might work out as well!
Well, this is April in Minnesota, so naturally I woke to find about six inches of snow on the ground. Sigh. This state . . . We had a great 24 hours, with over 80% of required funds collected. It was an excellent first day! Podcasts Fall Like Rain Over the next few days, you’ll…

A lot of my “index pages” have gone the way of the dodo since my migration from Blogger to WordPress, and while I take time to fix that, I wanted to offer up something as a reminder and a bit of a throwback. I have conducted quite a few interviews, some recently, some a while…
As I have been working on the Heretical RPG project, I’ve been struggling with backgrounds. It’s not that there aren’t a ton of them out there already – there are. But they’re also not clearly something I can just, well, steal. It’s one thing to go out and get permission both implicit (via the OGL)…

Both excellent choices. Dark Lord’s Doom is a small squad adventure where you can bring the unit up to strength, after losses, with recruits.
