I was starting to highlight some of the other blogs as a direct post on google+, but I have decided to do them as blog posts since that will make it much easier to keep track of the ones that I have already done. As I have previously noted, these are being highlighted in a random order, to indicate that I like them but not providing any ranking. One is that I don't want to rank them qualitatively (since I am not qualified to do that beyond just personal preferences) and two because they are all valuable resources IMO.
Just for the record the ones I have already highlighted are (in no particular order):
Beer, Pretzels, and 20-Sided Dice
This old school blog just started up recently, but well worth going on your must follow list.
The 3 Toadstools
Here is an old school blog that has been around for a couple of years
that I only recently discovered. I am gradually reading the old posts a
few at a time. A really good read.
Tenkar's Tavern
There are a lot of good old school blogs and Tenkar's Tavern is one I really enjoy. Since the 1st of Jan, he is on a particularly good roll! His post on morale and loyalty in regard to Charisma is thought provoking.
Hedge GM
This blog is new and concerns a conversion from ?? to 5E and is (roleplaying in the world of The Elder Scrolls series) a very interesting read. He has one post concerning lingering injuries and wounds, massive damage; variant optional rule D&D 5th Edition and it reminds me of ground that was covered by The Arduin Grimoire (written 1976, published 1977).
Going forward from here I will be highlighting more blogs on an ongoing basis. There is an incredible variety and array of viewpoints and whether I agree with an author or not, most (perhaps all) of them make me think and in some way (large or small) help me improve my game.
Wow, thanks for sharing my link :)
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome! BTW what system are you converting from?
