Table top games take us back to the good ole gaming days, before we had to plug in to play.
History of the Chess Game
The origins of chess. There’s some speculation among historians on the roots of the game, but the one version that’s most commonly referred to is the following: chess originated from the ancient Indian game “chaturanga” in the 6th century. This game was similar in configuration, but naturally, the chess pieces, if we can even call them that, had different roles to play and moved differently across the board. It had two main features that unite all the forms of chess previously in existence and differ it from other board games. In all the games from chaturanga to modern chess, the pieces had different powers levels, and the outcome of the game depended on the fate of one pivotal piece on the board. In the case of modern chess - the king.

Legend About The Chessboard
Chess is an ancient game. It has existed for many centuries, and it is therefore not surprising that legends are linked to it whose honesty is difficult to prove due to its antiquity. I want to tell you about one of them. To understand it, it is not necessary to know how to play chess; it is enough to know that the board where it is played is divided into 64 squares (black and white squares, arranged alternately).

D&D: Spanning Generations
It started with a inquiry on a bag of dice in a small crown royal bag. Apparently all the cool Dungeons and Dragons ( D&D) gamers carry their dice in those assorted color velour bags with the yellow strings. It sounds very complex nowadays. It is all done virtually at present, due to COVID, and people's schedules but it is a variant of the same game from back in the 1970's. This role playing has a Manifesto, and its players have a real investment in what goes on with their characters. The Dungeon Master (DM) or Game Master (GM) is the one who directs the play of this dragonian and mystical adventure and the players choose and roll their fate. This DM needs to know the rules,the story , the why , when , where, how, a real reporter of adventure. This seems like a good preparation for a management position in the future.

Actions do Have Consequences (Part 1)
This is the story of how my very first Dungeons and Dragons party made a huge mistake in selling a weapon, and then had to save the world because of it. I'm going to split this into a few parts for several reasons. This story covers multiple in-game levels, adventures, and settings. Many of these events will be made into smaller stories if they don't directly tie into this plot line.

The beginning of a rocky road...
As eventful as my first Dungeons and Dragons session was, it was merely the beginning of a series. A series of unfortunate events, if you will. As this is a much longer tale, I will narrate from my own perspective rather than that of my character as I did in my recounting of my first session.

My First D&D Session
In January of 2019, a few months after I moved, I made some new friends that were part of a Dungeons and Dragons group. Around May I got invited to join them, so I thought why not give it a try? I'd heard a lot about it and thought it would be fun.

The DM's Guide to 1's and 20's
The game Dungeons and Dragons (DnD) is popular among fans of many genres. The game has been referenced in television shows from Gravity Falls or Stranger Things. I am an fan of DnD and play the game in my free time. The creativity the game allows is endless since it gives the players options on what race and class to play. The main point of DnD is being with friends and following the Dungeon Master's (DM) story. The fate of the players is left to the dice, but the most used and popular dice is the twenty-sided dice.

Memorable Magic in DnD 5e
Magic Items are one of the core engagements of Dungeons and Dragons campaigns. They are better rewards than gold, more impactful than most NPCs, and define characters as much as their abilities do. With that in mind, shouldn't magic items be spectacular? If they are some of the most essential elements of the game, why are we still finding +1 Swords at the end of a dungeon?
