$49.95

 

Giants have emerged from their strongholds to threaten civilization as never before. Hill giants are stealing all the grain and livestock they can while stone giants have been scouring settlements that have been around forever. Fire giants are press-ganging the smallfolk into the desert, while frost giant longships have been pillaging along the Sword Coast. Even the elusive cloud giants have been witnessed, their wondrous floating cities appearing above Waterdeep and Baldur’s Gate. Where is the storm giant King Hekaton, who is tasked with keeping order among the giants?

 

The humans, dwarves, elves, and other small folk of the Sword Coast will be crushed underfoot from the onslaught of these giant foes. The only chance at survival is for the small folk to work together to investigate this invasion and harness the power of rune magic, the giants’ weapon against their ancient enemy the dragons. The only way the people of Faerun can restore order is to use the giants’ own power against them.

 

This 256-page adventure for characters level 1 – 11+ provides everything a Dungeon Master needs to create an exciting and memorable play experience for the Storm King’s Thunder story, including rune magic items, a new treasure option for characters.

At Gen Con I caught up with Mikaela and Devon from End Transmission Games.  We discuss the Singularity System, Splinter (not the rat), and Dice Punk.

They also share some of their freelancing experience.  They must be doing something right to sponsor Gen Con!

Jason and I always have fun we disicuss Court of Shadows, Anarchy and Music and Trog!

I have to admit when I first heard about Court of Shadows I was skeptical, but I think I like the idea now.

So how does a troll sleep with dermal deposits?

Chris Birch of Modiphius Entertainment tells me about Star Trek and his new tabletop game Airfix Battles. I’m so glad they are doing a beta test too.

I think one of the coolest things about the Star Trek RPG is going to be the use of the forume.

 

Sorry about the weird cut in the video, my memory card filled up and didn’t relay to the next card right.
