Tengo que reconocer que esta película solo la añado a la lista por Nicolas Cage, pues a pesar de que aquí vemos un mundo postapocalíptico repleto de criaturas que amenazan con exterminar a la humanidad cada vez que se pone el sol, es una fórmula tan extensamente repetida que podría encontrar cientos de películas como…

A los tres años tus padres te compraron un viejo Apple IV GS con monitor Radius 241 y tu vida cambió. En quinto curso, ya dominabas cualquier problema que pudiera darte la capacidad de la computadora del laboratorio de la escuela. Usabas C y META-LINGUA para penetrar en los ordenadores y cambiar tu nota. Cuando…

Esta entrada es una respuesta a una del mismo nombre, escrita por mi hermano el mes pasado: Mi colección de rol en números e idiomas en El Rincón del Maestro Terrax. La entrada tenía como objetivo determinar de una vez por todas si en su colección rolera había más libros en inglés o más libros…

Antes de la introducción del cigarrillo, en Irlanda era común que hombres y mujeres fumaran en pipas de arcilla. Las pipas de tallo largo se pasaban comúnmente en los velorios y, en consecuencia, se conocieron como pipas Lord ha' mercy. Por el contrario, la pipa de tallo corto era la preferida por la clase trabajadora,…

I know, I know, it's a scandalous thing to suggest, and certainly something that I, a died-in-the-wool "MOAR BACKSTORY" guy would ordinarily be ashamed to express, but I read Alien Anthology (Steve Miller and Owen K.C. Stephens) and I was forced to conclude that…

It is the Year of our Lord 1376. England is a land of unrest. The Great Mortality—the Black Death—has swept the country twice in the last three decades and now half of her people are dead. With half of the labourers and serfs who worked the land also dead, labour is much in demand and…

After a long hiatus, during which my role-playing table defeated all that A2 had to offer, I probably should wrap up with a critical review of the dungeon part of the module.Like the fort level, the dungeon is built around two "railroad" sequences of rooms which are shaded on the TSR map. Each is similar…

Now in its nineteenth year, Free RPG Day for 2026 took place on Saturday, June 27th.

 #RPGaDAY2026 – Day 23: FortuneIf there's one thing you won't make when making RPGs (unless you're lucky enough to get a crazy-huge license like Dungeon Crawler Carl or Cosmere) is a fortune. But that doesn't mean we can't dream! However, Fortune can relate to other things too – and is particularly apt for a magic…

The option to play a dwarf or elf has been part of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay since its first edition – an inheritance from the original 1983 release of Warhammer, which somewhat muddied the waters between wargame and roleplaying game before Games Workshop thought better of it and decided it would be better not to try…

Twilight 2000: Roleplaying in the World War III That Never Was opens with the Player Characters on the run, attempting to escape the last hurrah of the US 5th Mechanized Infantry Division near the city of Kalisz in central Poland or the 2nd Marine Division near the central city of Örebro in Sweden. Where do…

I’ve been talking with my friends and partner about this sort of thing. Often I’m not even the one to bring it up. There’s a preponderance of hustlers lately and it sucks seeing both suckers and bad-faith agents eating it up. These are some thoughts I’ve gathered from my conversations as well as from past…
