Star Wars Role Playing Game – Edge of the Empire
I know that many of you have been playing Role Playing Games for a while. If you have not played the Fantasy Flight Role Playing Game Star Wars you are missing out. I am going to do a review of the three core books over the next few weeks. Today I wanted to specifically review the Edge of the Empire.
Edge of the Empire is a complete rule book. If you wanted to play a game that deals more with mercenaries and not affiliated with any organization, this is the game for you.

Board Games in Review – King of Tokyo – Monster Game
Happy Monday Board Game enthusiasts. Today I bring you another board game and this one is all about monsters battling it out for control of Tokyo to prove who is the superior monster.
King of Tokyo is a monster game or a game of kaiju attacking the city. It is pretty strait forward be either the last monster standing or the first one to 20 victory points. The great part of the game is it is designed for 2-6 players though I highly recommend 4 or more or it is over too quickly. What is great about this is the more more players currently in the game the more city targets can be attacked.
How Will You Rank in King of Tokyo?
Player Tips – How to Deal with Confrontation at the Gaming Table
Hello gaming enthusiasts. If you are like me you had been playing games for quite a while and confrontation at your gaming table is inevitable. People are people and regardless of how many things in common you might have with your fellow gamers eventually an argument or disagreement will happen.
The hard part is figuring out what to do then. Small things like how has to buy the next round or grab the next bag of chips is small in comparison to the large arguments that can happen. I personally have done table top role playing with over 50 people in my rich history and probably played board games with another 20-30. You see gaming is fun and an important part of my life.

Board Games in Review – Martian Coasters – Looney Pyramids
Hello and Happy Monday fellow games lovers. A while back I did a basic review on Looney Pyramids, and I may not have conveyed the amount of fun that can be had with these little plastic pyramids. So to further that cause I am going to go into depth into some of my favorite games.
The first game I played a lot of is Treehouse and originally you bought Treehouse sets to get access to the Looney Pyramids. Now they are sold as Looney Pyramids for those wanting to pick up extra pyramids or in a Treehouse set. You can also buy other games that can come with pyramids or just rules.

D&Dizing Star Wars for 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition Part 3
Hello Nerdarchist and Star Wars fans. Today I am bring you my Epic conclusion to D&Dizing Star Wars. Lets figure out how to play a Sith in Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition. Star Wars has always considered the rites of the Sith a secret thing so as to dissuade the Jedi from being tempted by their power.
Now in a setting where powers are level dependent there is no easy way to give a Sith more power and still keep the system balanced. Last week we did Jedi and Sith are not a far cry from them they are just willing to do different things. The first and foremost this that Sith use their lightning Attack. Not only do we already have a spell that functions just like this effect but it is already a warlock spell: Witch bolt.
What Does it Take to a Play a Sith in 5th Edition
Board Games in Review – Batman Fluxx – Card Game
Happy Monday Fellow Nerdarchists and game lovers. Today Lets look at the Fluxx series by Looney Labs and their Super Crime fighting version of Batman Fluxx. I have been playing flux for a number of years. It is a great game to pull out when you have a few minutes or a few hours to kill. The games can go fast and are always fun and different.
If you have never played Fluxx, in any of its widely assorted versions, It is a simple to follow game that starts off with only drawing one card and playing one card. As cards are played you use strategy to accomplish a goal without another playing either changing the goal or fulfilling it before you can. There are over 20 different versions of Fluxx on the market each uniquely designed to give you the feel of the flavor of each deck.

Board Games in Review – Red Dragon Inn
Hello and Happy Monday everyone. I had a chance this weekend for Nerdarchy to play a new game: Red Dragon Inn. And it was a fun time.
Red Dragon Inn is the game of what happens in the Inn after the adventure is over. There are two components to the game. You have gold, and you need gold to drink and gamble as well as your alcohol and fortitude. If you run out of gold you stumble off to bed, if your alcohol level ever meets or exceeds your fortitude you pass out drunk and the Inn and party members take your gold.

Multi-Class Character Builds in Dungeons & Dragons 5e (The Fighter)
Hello fellow Nerdarchests, Art here. I’m back with the third installment of my series Multi-Class Character Builds in Dungeons & Dragons 5e. If you missed my previous article on the Druid just click HERE.
Today we are going to march onto the battlefield with… The Fighter
First I’m going to take a some space and talk about the class as a whole. The Fighter is a very diverse and well thought out class in my honest opinion. Wizards of the Coast did a pretty good job with it as a base class and added a little bit of depth with the additions in The Sword Coast Adventure’s Guide with the addition of the Purple Dragon Knight. As far as scaling power levels go in reference to the higher level challenges, the Fighter scales quite nicely especially the Battle Master archetype.
Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition – Custom Background
Happy Tuesday my fellow gamers. Today I would like to present you with a custom background in case you need more character building options for you Dungeons and Dragons game.
So here is the background Tribal. The outlander is the most adventurous background but to me it does not speek to one who was raised in a tribal culture but one who went out into the wilderness later in life. if you are playing a half orc or barbarian character you might very well have grown up in a tribe. If you are playing a more monstrous race or have something custom in your home brew campaign setting this background might suit you better than Outlander.

Board Games in Review – Boss Monster – Card Game
Hello again my fellow board game lovers. Nerdarchist Ted is back to review another board game. Today we look at Boss Monster. This great card game made with art in tribute to the old style of video games but has awesome references to them in the art and flavor text as well.
In Boss Monster you get to play the bad guy and have heroes try to raid your dungeon. You get to out out rooms that try to stop them from getting to you. You have different types of rooms such as trap or monster rooms. You get to play them out in front of your “Boss Monster” to protect him or her from the adventurers that want to slay you.
