Exploring and celebrating the tabletop hobby
It's not been a very game-heavy week, but I have managed to squeeze in just a little bit of hobby gaming. First up, my after school group embarked on their first proper Dungeons & Dragons session. For some, this was their first shot at D&D or RPGs in general. I didn't manage to get any… Continue reading Hobby Update 09/09/18: Oh, Lovecraft, You Need to Dial it Back…
It’s Friday, and here on No Rerolls that means it's time for an all-new 5 on Friday. We're going to start with 5 exciting releases for this week before moving on to our usual digest of some of our favourite articles from the past week. Of course, we’re slow readers, so don’t be surprised if there are some articles… Continue reading 5 on Friday: 07/09/18
This is an odd one. So, there were a few Warhammer 40,000 RPGs released by FFG over the years of their license with Games Workshop. They were all the same system, really, but each with a different focus. Deathwatch is the game that focuses on the Space Marines, the iconic... icon of the 41st millennium. … Continue reading Bundle of Holding: Deathwatch²
There have been a fair few decent tabletop-themed Humble Bundles recently. This latest offering is for a set of video games based on a selection of board and card games. This is a great way to play these games solo without all of the setup and tidying. As is usual for these bundles, the offer… Continue reading Humble Bundle: Digital Tabletop
There was no '5 on Friday' this week as I've been rather pressed for time, and so have not been reading many blog posts. I considered doing this on Friday afternoon, between getting home from work and people arriving for games, but I fell asleep! After my unplanned nap, my focus was on a bit… Continue reading Hobby Update 02/09/18: Terraforming the Sword Coast
We gave the Hobby update a skip last week, so it's a double feature today! Last Monday, we broke out a few games down in Lybster. We started off with some Pandemic. I was the only one who'd played the game before, but it actually went quite well. We kept a good handle on the… Continue reading Hobby Update 26/08/18: Kings of Pandemic
Cubicle 7 make a handful of interesting games, such as the RPG based on The Laundry Files, the Doctor Who RPG, Victoriana and, relevant to this post, The Lord of the Rings RPG. One of the current offers over at Humble Bundle is for a selection of LOTR RPG books. The bundle gives you loads… Continue reading Humble Bundle: The Lord of the Rings RPG

The week started with the best of intentions - a good tidy up! The focus was on my games room and the little room that leads off from it. The initial focus was on the miniatures - sorting them and tidying: I ended up getting rid of some old stuff I know I'd never look… Continue reading Hobby Update 12/08/18: Putting One’s House in Order
