Weekly Update – February 21, 2019
Greetings OPers, and thanks for taking the time to stop by and check out this update. We’ve got some fairly big things in the works, so you’ll definitely want to give this one a thorough read.
Absences Excused: How to Explain Vanishing Characters
Real life is chaos. We fake being organized and we pretend that we’re in control, but no one actually lives that way (do they?). And in spite of all our valiant efforts – sometimes the worst comes to pass. Dread it. Run from it. Sometimes, a player has to skip game night. But how do you explain away the sudden disappearance of Chestgirth, barbarian lord of Clan Bicep? Read on and master the art of vanishing a character who’s player can’t attend.
Vote for Campaign of the Year!
Who do you love?
It’s Valentine’s Day (at least for a few more hours), so what better time to get you to express your love for the campaign you believe should be Campaign of the Year for 2018! Also in the spirit of love, we’re taking this opportunity to right the tremendous wrong from last year, when the hard working GMs and players of the 2017 Campaign of the Month roster were denied their Campaign of the Year vote. That’s right, this year’s CotY voting is a double header.
We simply couldn’t bear the thought of letting another day go by without getting our beloved featured campaign program back up to speed, and our winners determined. So please, join us in casting a vote for both the 2017 and 2018 Campaigns of the Year.

Hey all,
There’s a bit of “follow up” in this post, but there’s also some new information, so take a read and see what’s going on.
3D Pen Mini’s
As the world of tabletop roleplaying games evolves into what feels like the future, I discern a desperate, mid-life-crisis-ish urge to stay abreast of the cool new tech that came out several years ago (I’m slow to adapt). 3D printing is one such cutting-edge contrivance… but I’m not willing to risk a large investment (read: I’m cheap) in a desktop 3D printer to make miniatures. Not yet, anyway. Instead, I bought a 3D Pen to see if I could wield divine power upon the (small-scale) realm of plastic!
