Merry Chistmas!

I hope everyone has had a great Christmas! Thing have been a lot of fun around the house, toy train central! In other news things have been busy planning the RPG CON coming up in January. The Cal'thel page is slowly coming together, go check it out and let me know what you think. In other rpg news I picked up the Palladium book of Weapons and Assassins from my local game store. This book has everything you need to run an assassin game from around the world, not just in Japan. I am also playing SWTOR and it is beyond great! I just don't have enough time to play! LOL

A quick shout out to my friends over at the D20 radio network (Holocron 2.0, the Order of 66, Role for initiative and Thacos Hammer Pod Casts) and all of my fellow Guildies on the Order of Sixty Six!

Cal'thel site Launch!

Things on the kingdom of Cal'thel have finally burst from my brain and onto the web! It is early in the process but check it out anyway.

Cal'thel - The ris of the Silverblade Family

The return of Valiant Comics!

Just announce today, Valiant comics will be releasing its first new comic with the free comic book day edition featuring X-O Manowar! The new logo and art looks great. I cant wait to read it! For more info on this check out the article on IGN.

Cal'thel back story!

So I finally decided to take all of my notes and put together the Time line and back story for my world. Its far over due, now I just need to figure out where to start! When the time line gets closer to being finished I'll post it here and on the osr gaming forums

RPG scores, gaming continues and comics!

Alright, here we go again, on black Friday my wife decided we needed to go shopping. For once shopping paid off for me. Headed out to Half price books and scored some sweet books. First off I found 3 copies of the AD&D Dungeon Masters guides, of which I grabbed the best looking copy.(stock photo from rpg.net)

My original book was falling apart at the spine so I was happy to replace it. Next up is an RPG that I have played a couple times but never own a copy of the book. Earth Dawn 2nd edition: Brand new HC, this game is alot of fun, I highly recommend trying it out.

Moving on from those sweet acquisitions we move over to the world of comics. I was shocked to find a brand new never opened copy of  Marv Wolfman / George Perez's New Teen Titans: Games Hard Cover.

This is a beautiful book with one of the coolest Titan stories ever told, plus I picked it up for $10. If you have a local half price books or used book store, you should check them out. You never know what you can find. Along with the above I also found a few comics:

X-factor # 7 (vol. 1)
The Green Lantern Corps # 223

The Mighty Thor # 396
G.I. Joe A Real American Hero! # 5, 7, 17, 18, 19, 22 (marvel 1982)
Classic X-men # 4-6, 10-13, 23

In other news on the gaming front, plans for the January Game event are slowly moving forward. I've got a few people lined up to GM/DM a few games, now im just looking for more people to attend as players. hehe a work in progress =) Also, I will be continuing my current 4th edition D&D game based in my Home Brew world of Cal'Thel. Quinn (a knight of Kalamar) and Bayard (a war cleric) are brothers on an adventure to safe guard their families lands. A friend of mine is DM and has been running our little adventure every couple months for a year or so now. It is very cool to be playing characters in the world i've been building on for over 20 years now..

Star Wars the Old Republic - Beta weekend!

Since the NDA was lifted a while ago, I decided to talk about the game a bit while I wait for a server to let me in game. =) I was apart of the 3rd beta weekend a couple weeks ago and have been in this weekends beta since Friday morning. Server crowding is to be expected, especially on a Saturday afternoon, but all in all the wait times havent been to bad. Plus I have made 5 characters each on a different server.
Jedi Counselor
Jedi Knight - Sentinel
Bounty Hunter
Sith Warrior
Republic Trooper

I think I'm going to try some crafting tonight if I get on a server! lol It has been alot of fun so far, the guild im in "The Order of 66" had a great showing on the Cosmic Turbine server. I believe we had at least 23 guild members on last night
