Feast of Gold Public Service Announcement: The Crusader wants to get his Feast of Gold celebrations underway, but there’s some unfinished business to attend to. There are fewer than 25 pre-order opportunities left for 13th Age. These Escalation Editions are running around First Triumph, getting underfoot and generally being irritating. Give the Crusader the holiday gift of peace of mind! […]

I started my Blackmarch 13th Age campaign this past weekend. It’s sort of like True Grit with swords and magic, and I decided to get the players into the frontier spirit by kicking it off with a good, old-fashioned tavern brawl. I treated the other brawlers as low-hp mooks, so the PCs could emerge as […]
From Rob Heinsoo: We have two winners of Paint the Town. The winners are the Three and the Archmage. You expected maybe Drakkenhall and Horizon? Oh yeah. Right. The cover story is that it’s a geography piece, a city map. But what’s really going down is that we’ll be digging into the impact an icon […]
Rob Heinsoo wasn’t the only GM representing 13th Age at ZOEcon in Seattle. Ash Law (The Reliquary) gives her convention report: The Dwarf King’s Double’s Second Beard Our session started with me standing outside the room at ZOECon giving away books. That’s right, I had a load of old game books and was just giving […]
This post originally appeared on Rob’s blog. I ran a two hour demo session of 13th Age at ZOEcon last week for five players. I was deadline -rushed working on 13th Age so I didn’t otherwise partake of the convention, but I did catch up with a couple friends I hadn’t talked to in years. […]
One of the big stretch goals we reached during the Kickstarter for 13 True Ways, the first 13th Age expansion, was Paint The Town. It goes like this: backers get to vote on which major city in the Dragon Empire gets a detailed section in the book that includes at least one full two-page map of […]
There is so much going on with 13th Age that I thought it best to spin off 13th Age news into this new Page XX section. Beware though, the Archmage’s scrying glass is misty, and while he speaks with certitude, the future is not always as clear as he pretends. The Past The 13 True […]
Any moment now, when Kickstarter pushes the 13 True Ways book over $64K, Jonathan Tweet and Robin D. Laws and I will be working together again for the first time. Jonathan and Robin have worked together, most notably on Over the Edge. Robin and I have worked together from my first paid gig writing an […]
Devil of the Fangs: “When the Blessed Emperor pacified the Midland Sea, most of the terrible giants of the deeps swam out into the Iron Sea. But some of the great krakens moved onto land. They converted their deep magic into river magic and became the river devils, armored squid-like monstrosities capable of heaving themselves from […]
This month’s ENnie Award-nominated See Page XX is a mini offering of 13th Age related goodies. Wade Rockett talks about his experiences playing 13th Age with lead designer Rob Heinsoo. Ash Law gives two examples of how normal items, such as a dwarven hammer, work in 13th Age. Bedlamdan tells us what actually happens when […]
