Ok, I have to admit not being very active with blogs lately (neither reading nor writing), but after adding a dozen of blogs to my feedreader yesterday evening and writing almost as many comments already I thought I stop writing, complaining and repeating the ultimate topic for a while (4e). So to take myself from…

4th Edition – Dungeons and Dragons
It’s now that I remember the days when 3rd edition came up – replacing the beloved 2nd edition with new rules, new ideas, a new flow that simply was strange to many fellow players and I do remember when dozens of them vowed to stick to the 2nd edition because of it’s (in their eyes)…
Curse of Avalon
Just in time – on saturday it’s once again Curse of Avalon time. More precisely – this time it’s a Covers of Avalon – one of the rare events when Reeh, Piratte and myself will try to captivate an audience with creative and hard-found cover versions that either inherit their song in medieval or metal…
Dante 01 and Babel (2 movie reviews)
First it started not too bad, when a friend of mine proposed the Midnight Movie at the UCI-Kinowelt in Vienna. Even the description of Dante01, did not read that bad. But in the end – it was not the best science-fiction movie out there… Dante Everything starts quite promising. We’ve the genuine theme of human…
Going Alpha
Well, it took me several years for the decision to buy a digital SLR. And it took me several² days for the choice, which one I would buy. Furthermore I think I counted 5 (partially attempted) orders, the first one was very interesting, but they didn’t have the equipment on stock all of a sudden…
My Geekquarium
We got a nice cat-TV over here, you probably have already seen the elder pictures of it – but unluckily for the fishes it tends to be rather hot during the summer months here in Austria. Especially where the aquarium stands – it is not a particularly windy spot and so we measured temperatures rising…
A word on games and microsoft
Or maybe a few… After all I have to start with my position. I’m a regular computer gamer, mostly a fan of ego-shooters, tend to try strategy games and roleplaying games every now and then and spend a bit of my spare-time with these various games… I am playing solely on my pc (I got…
Annihilation – War of the Spider Queen Book 5
Hey finally I’ve found my old book digestion speed again ;). In other words – I’ve quickly used the drive I got from Lisa’s Extinction to dive deeply into Annihilation by Philip Athans. And it worked. It worked well. In this book you’ll have the expedition to the Abyss on the edge of destruction and…
Extinction – War of the Spiderqueen Book 4
Greetings and hello, I think it’s about time I write my short review of Lisa Smedman’s extraordinary contribution to the War of the Spiderqueen Series. She wrote a book called Extinction – driving forward the journey to the Abyss and giving Pharaun, Ryld, Valas, Danifae, Halrissa, Quenthel and her draegoloth but not only them… My…
Day #3 – Showdown – Adventure roundup
Done, finally. After a harsh discussion on the end of day #2, mostly caused due to the sheer size of our group, 7 players, 1 dungeon master and the in my eyes “lack of respect” when my players don’t listen to each other but have 3 different discussions ongoing most of the time, wondering why…
