I am expanding the focus of this blog. We're going to be talking about Lord of the Rings. Although the last of the movies are over the books, games, and such still remain. I will also be expanding to cover roleplaying games.
My favorite game is Dungeon World. It is a pencil and paper game that is an updating and simplification of D&D and other OSR games that captures the feel of the old school gaming while having a simple and easy to learn rule systems. This blog has been dormant for a long time. First, we lost many, many members of our families and our professional and personal lives have been turned upside down.
I won't be doing many long posts. I will focus on quality rather than quantity but my real reason is that I am working on other writing projects with hard deadlines. You can play in a Tolkien created world with Dungeon World just as well as with other systems if you give the game a bit of a tweak.
In future posts we'll be talking about the server move for LOTRO. A Lord of the Rings themed table top game, and I'll be reviewing Mindfaring Through Middle-Earth by Michael Martinez a Tolkien scholar and very interesting writer.
