Welcome to RPG Resource
Gary Gygax1938 - 2008Remembered every time a die is rolled
My recovery from a stroke last December proceeds well and I am now beginning to go back to work - but there is still time for role-playing! Thank you for all the good wishes.
This site is growing to hold a comprehensive series of articles and reviews on role-playing games (the pencil-and-paper sort, not computer games!). My primary focus will be on the actual use of published material to support and enhance your own role-playing campaigns... Due to minor constraints like work, motherhood, and writing, this site is likely to grow quite slowly... but steadily so do come back often.
My intention with this site is to concentrate on supporting and enhancing role-playing thus bringing new and unusual systems into the limelight as well as supporting the better known ones, and maintaining information about the 'golden oldies' that are still loved even if they are no longer supported by their publishers.
And in the meantime, if you really want to make my day, buy "Way of the Witch" from Citizen Games... it's my first book! Written by Janet Pack, Jean Rabe, Christina Stiles and me, it covers playing witches in Dungeons and Dragons. We had a lot of fun writing it... hope you'll enjoy reading the results.
Click HERE to order from Amazon.co.uk or HERE if you prefer Amazon.com.
As I add information to the site, I'll add Amazon, RPG Now, Paizo, DriveThruRPG, and YourGames Now links so that you can buy the books that appeal to you easily... Note that only Amazon & DriveThruRPG provide affiliate programmes so if you are minded to contribute to my RPG book-reading habits, please purchase there when possible!
All comments & suggestions welcome - Megan Robertson.
Look for DriveThruRPG, Paizo, RPG Now, & Amazon links on individual product pages
