\"\"Pull your swords out of your stones and step into the Gaming Hut<\/strong> for a consideration of the Chosen One trope.<\/p>\n

How to Write Good<\/strong> explores a phenomenon Robin calls Nigeling, when you make one character look good by painting others as rubes.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll place great stock in\u2026 no, I\u2019m sorry, I can\u2019t. Let\u2019s just say the Food Hut<\/strong> is talking soup and leave it at that.<\/p>\n

Then we close on an most unusual Ken\u2019s Time Machine<\/strong> mission: getting a notorious criminal cast as James Bond before he commits his famous crime.<\/p>\n

Ken and Robin have oft been accused of being cards. Well, we can deny it no longer. We have become super-limited promo cards<\/a> for Murder of Crows<\/em>, Atlas Games\u2019 fast-paced card game of murder and the macabre, for two to five players in the mood for something a little morbid. It’s Edward Gorey meets Caligari, by way of Edgar Allan Poe. Wait a minute, what does that graphic say? I\u2019m not so sure about this\u2026<\/em> \"\"<\/a> Ken fans who did not partake of the Kickstarter can now sink their fangs into the general release of the Dracula Dossier<\/em><\/a> from Pelgrane Press, consisting of the Director’s Handbook<\/em> and Dracula Unredacted<\/em>. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re like every roleplayer we know, you strive to outshine others in showing your love of dice. Well, now you can arouse the envy of friends and foes alike with Askfageln\u2019s dazzling coffee table photo art book dedicated to all things pipped and many-sided, Dice: Rendezvous with Randomness<\/a>. Luxuriate in the photo artistry of Mans Danneman. Grab the book or gorgeous prints through their Kickstarter<\/a>!<\/p>\n

In a move that surely violates someone’s security clearance, this episode is also brought to you by our friends at Arc Dream Publishing<\/a>. The Kickstarter for Delta Green: the Roleplaying Game<\/em> has come to an end, but don’t let that stop you from indulging your fever for this classic game, or that pinnacle of the Cthulhu game zine world, The Unspeakable Oath<\/em>. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
