  • Immortal: Gates of Pyre

    Visit the Iron Republic of Jora with us and fight alien angels, explore ruins of incredibly advanced civilizations and meet forgotten terrors from other dimensions! Immortal: Gates of Pyre is a mini-setting by Donavon Bailey that brings the world of the strategy game with the same name to Savage Worlds. Together with the setting, we review a special edition of a scotch.

    • Heroes of Terra

      In the magical world of Terra, the ruthless dragon emperor has united the Kappa tribes and conquered the peaceful mandragora kingdom. Will you help the oppressed people against the occupying forces? Are you a wanderer, looking for the valuable storage blocks in old and new ruins? Are you actually considering siding with the emperor? Or do you just... want to go karting? We'll check out the setting by Blackwing Productions and also review a bourbon that was mysteriously suggested to us.

          • Bartington Halls: School for the Elite

            A posh private school, British banter and supernatural phenomena - are you in? Here comes our review of Bartington Halls: School for the Elite by Wild Eye Books! We might not be as rich as the pupils there, but at least we're old enough to buy whisky. So of course, we're also reviewing a Scotch with a similarly venerable history as that school.
