Just thought I’d let the curious cats out there know that I’m currently working on a Team Fortress 2 payload map, the same game-type as the ever so popular Gold Rush. I’ve also been poking around in Radiant, Infinity Wards level editor for CoD4, though I probably won’t end up creating a level in it, it was fun to see a different tool set.

Other than that I’ve been reading up on the DnD 4th edition core rulebooks and I’m rather pleased. Just as videogames have taken from DnD systems, now DnD takes systems from videogames. There are so many fundamental rule changes that simplify the core systems.

I’ve heard some opinions say how that simplifying them, they seem more watered down and generic. But I digress, it doesn’t take away from the soul of the game, it just changed it in a way that is more logical and makes sense to a broader audience. Most of your favourite spells are still in there, you just cast them in different and more interesting ways.
