The Big List of RPG Links

Kyle Aaron · December 26, 2007, 07:35:53 PM

Added a link to The Gaming Stories of Al Bruno the Third - links to a heap of stories of El Disgusto, Psycho Dave, and other crazy people Al claims to have gamed with.

My favourite is probably "Achy Breaky Mythos" beginning with the ominous words,

"The poster of Billy Ray Cyrus on his wall should have been a warning sign to all of us."

Added an historical re-enactment link, Late medieval re-enactment in Norway, focusing on 1397-1434 - the period of the Kalmar union, when Denmark, Sweden and Norway were unified, with a particular focus on mounted combat (page in English).

Added a link to, Sounddogs - sound effects, mood music - worth paying a bit for, but there are 30+ second samples of everything, which should be enough for lots of moments in games.

This is pretty awesome, or maybe I just think so because I just a laptop and hope to use it at the game table

I've added a new category with some links.

Soundtrack music - free downloads of public doman or Creative Commons music
