You asked for more powers. Well, buster, we hope you made room in the pantry, because Palladium is here to deliver with Heroes Unlimited: Powers Unlimited Three. With 133 new things for your supers to super with, you should be kept nice and busy.

Century 14

Posted: October 01, 2006

Need a piece of prime real estate for your fantasy campaign? Perhaps you should peruse the fine offerings inside Masterwork Maps: Strongholds and Sanctuaries. Or not. You could go it alone.

Places To Go, Folk To Rob

The 'verse of Serenity ain't a particularly nice one. 'Course, that's what makes it so excitin'. An' excitin' is good, since the only thing more dangerous than a Reaver is a crew that's going a little fong luh from boredom. Maybe it's time to find out what's goin' on Out in the Black.

Rolling Precious Stones

We all know how highly valued dice are to gamers, but how many dice are truly valuable? Treat yourself to a set of Dwarven Stones or Dwarven Metal dice. Or buy a set for your DM. They might just convince him that your 17th level half-orc barbarian with that +3 Axe of Dragonslaying isn't really dead after all.

Tiny Pyramids For Tiny Pyramids

The Icehouse: Volcano Caps are designed to let you play Volcano with your Icehouse pieces. You could probably also use the tiny, gray pyramids to serve the nefarious ends of a global conspiracy that rules the world, but we wouldn't fnord anything about that . . .

A Hundred Billion Stars

Sure is a lot of ground to cover . . . Maybe the universe could use a tourist office? In the meantime, there's Star Hero: Worlds of Empire. It should point you at a few of the more interesting planets.

Picking Up The Pieces

Posted: September 26, 2006

Blue Moon City is an absolute mess. Probably because of all that fighting you people did with the original game, Blue Moon! Now it's time to take responsibility for this little urban disaster and rebuild the city. Try not to break it this time, 'kay?

Try To Understand, He's A Magic Man

Or perhaps a black magic woman. Whatever the case, slingin' spells is more than damage ratings and casting difficulty. There's other magical wonders to consider, too. Like the secret cabals, the metaplanes, and toxic spirits. And then there's the stuff that's really scary. Don't go unprepared, chummer. Get a copy of Shadowrun: Street Magic.

The Annoying Old Guy Is Dead!

Posted: September 24, 2006

Long live the next annoying old guy! Okay, so the recent "forced retirement" of the Sea Lord has made things in Freeport a bit . . . tumultuous. Any sane individual would skip town, but then how many sane adventurers do you know? That's what we thought. Get the details in Freeport: Crisis in Freeport.

Zombies. Brains. Poker.

Maybe it's a message from the Secret Masters. Maybe it's a game by James Ernest called Dead Money. Maybe it's a spelling bee. Care to find out?

Particularly if each one can shoot a gravity beam out of its gob. If hurling your monstrous foes around with gravity-breath sounds like fun, maybe the Godzilla Origins: Keizer Ghidorah Plush is for you.

Open Ended Settings For Your Open License Gaming

Posted: September 21, 2006

From ninja to nightmares under the bed, True20: Worlds of Adventure is a veritable cornucopia of settings for True20. We say "veritable" because, well, you can't really eat it. Not without a lot of antacids, anyway.

Get Some Booty

We realize that upon opening a copy of Pieces of Eight: The Maiden's Vengeance or The Cursed Blade that the urge to bury the components on an island, make a map, tear that map into several pieces, and then distribute the pieces to various scallywags who sail the seven seas is pretty strong. But trust us, they make for a fun game, too.

Our Other Last Best Hope

Posted: September 19, 2006

It was the dawn of the second edition of an RPG based on a popular science fiction property, the year the great switch to OGL came upon us all. This is the advertisement of the latest of its core rule books. The year is 2006. The name of the game is Babylon 5 The Roleplaying Game.

Fantastic Adventures Of Amazing Fantasy!

Posted: September 18, 2006
