by Chris Sanderson As I write this, our store has been open for exactly eight years. We opened with little to no fanfare, with no real plan and with a marketing budget of “my mates.” My goal: a place to hang out and play RPGs together. Sure, we’d been hanging out and playing RPGs together […]
by Rob Heinsoo When we wrote the 13th Age core book, Jonathan and I traded off writing Chapter 8: The Dragon Empire. I got the chapter rolling with a big rush of ideas I’d always wanted to use in a fantasy campaign. Jonathan added many sections, then I rolled back through to finish the chapter […]
