Exploring and celebrating the tabletop hobby
Today, I thought I'd take you through my collection of RPG books. That is, my physical collection. As you can probably surmise from my frequent links to Bundles of Holding, I have a lot of digital copies of RPG books, too. Those folders are vast, but also unimpressive and ultimately less satisfying from a collector's… Continue reading My RPG Collection
I almost missed this sale! As much as I love the World of Darkness, I actually much prefer Chronicles of Darkness as a setting. I prefer most of the games in the range (though Vampire: The Masquerade remains my favourite White Wolf game, overall) and I like the approach taken in building a setting for you… Continue reading Chronicles of Darkness on Sale at DriveThruRPG
We're back up north, having spent a couple of weeks visiting family, buying a new car, seeing friends and generally chilling in the Central Belt. It's always nice to go off somewhere, but I like coming home. On Wednesday, I headed down to Lybster for one of my D&D groups. We've been using the Portland… Continue reading Hobby Update 29/07/18: One Construct and His Blade
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.

Settings like Planescape, The Forgotten Realms, Dragonlance, The Iron Kingdoms, Azeroth (the setting of World of Warcraft), the World of Darkness and others have come out of a collective, long-term effort over a number of years. In some cases, such as Forgotten Realms… Continue reading The Problem with Evolving Settings

Of course, we’re slow readers, so don’t be surprised if there are some articles that are a little older – these are just some of the great articles we happen to have actually… Continue reading 5 on Friday: 04/08/17

We are known well (among those who know us well) for our love of the World of Darkness and the Chronicles of Darkness. Hell, Alex and I have argued over it on our podcast before! We have also written a bit about these games before. Like, really, a lot. Ooooh, that was colourful now, wasn’t it? We also kinda love […]

Busy times, friends! I'm not able to put together something new at the moment, so I am sharing this post from my other blog. It deals with fluff in games and how it can serve to set the tone and to inspire. When it comes to tabletop games, flavour can be very important. Background information… Continue reading Finding Inspiration: ‘What Alec Bourbon Said’, or Why Fluff Matters
