When you want to keep your collections in order, having an app that's able to help out is invaluable. And Wyrd is here to help with your The Other Side collections with their Company Builder app. You can download it on multiple platforms now.

From the website:

Hey Wyrdos,

This week, after Waldo’s failed attempt to contact his friends on the Other Side with his séance, he asked around the office trying to borrow our cell phones in order to scrape together an extra-dimensional communication device. When we realized his “device” was just sticking all their batteries together in order to “juice up” his own phone, we figured it would be best for him to just try another method.

So, while we clean up from Waldo’s mess this week and remove the candid photo of Imp Butt left on each of our devices, let’s take a look at The Other Side Company Builder app, available now for free on the Google Play Store, Apple App Store, and through your browser!

Privateer Press is looking to extend the Warcaster line and they'll be heading to Kickstarter to do it. They've announced The Thousand Worlds, a new campaign. Have a look at what's coming in this new expansion.

From the announcement:

Mark your calendar! (Better yet, sign up for our mailing list.) On July 13th, the Warcaster: The Thousand Worlds project will launch on Kickstarter, expanding your battles in the Hyperuranion with a host of exciting new models as well as an incredible sourcebook.

Front and center in the Warcaster: The Thousand Worlds Kickstarter campaign are Faction Cadres, bands of related units that, when taken in your battle force, unlock an exciting and powerful Champion unit. The different elements of each Cadre can be incorporated into a battle force à la carte depending on your strategic plans. But the Champion unit requires that all elements of the Cadre be included on your battle force roster. The upside? The Champion is effectively a “free” inclusion, as it does not occupy a slot in your roster, thus increasing your in-game options and potential force power. The Champions also happen to be the coolest-looking units in the Hyperuranion!

The galaxy is filled with worlds. Worlds your players want to go explore... and murder people and steal everything, because gamers. But still. If you're looking to make a lot of worlds for your Starfinder game, you'll want the Galaxy Exploration Manual. Paizo takes a look inside it in this preview.

From the article:

The Starfinder Galaxy Exploration Manual offers a robust, yet simple system for generating entire science fantasy worlds on the fly, including populating them with creatures, adventures, and more. So let’s make ourselves a world, starting with nothing but our trusty dice and the two-page Building Worlds article in the Galaxy Exploration Manual.

For our first step, we’ll see what type of world we’re generating: is it a gas giant, an asteroid—even a colony ship? We roll 42 on our d% table and get… a terrestrial world, which is one that’s naturally habitable and has one or more biomes (coming in step 3). Not a bad place to start for most worlds, though we could always just choose something weirder if we wanted it.

Next, we’ll see what kind of gravity and atmosphere this world has by rolling d% twice more. Results of 42 and 84 give us standard gravity and a thick atmosphere, respectively. Handy page references guide us to the parts of the Starfinder Core Rulebook that’ll tell us more about thick atmospheres.

Next comes a key step: identifying our world’s biomes! What kinds of environments are present on this world? Do the creatures and cultures reside entirely in the air? In rugged mountains or soggy marshes? Let’s roll a d12 on the biomes table and find out! Our first roll is a 2, which gives us the aquatic biome. We could stop there and have a water world, but let’s roll a couple more times and see what else we get. Two more rolls (a 5 and a 10) add forest and subterranean biomes to the mix.

The dwarves are marching to war again, yet, still. Age of Sigmar is getting a new edition (as you know) and Games Workshop is looking at how all the factions are changing. The Fyreslayers are the next on the list to get said preview. Have yourselves a look.

From the article:

For the past few weeks, we’ve been talking to the playtesters for Warhammer Age of Sigmar to see how each faction is getting on in the new edition. If you’re burning to stake your claim in the Mortal Realms, but haven’t yet chosen your champions, take a look at these magma-loving duardin mercenaries.

Who Are the Fyreslayers?

The scions of the war-god Grimnir will fight just about anyone for a chance to add some ur-gold to their horde. This magical substance is worth far more than what it can buy, as the Runemasters of their race use it to hammer sigils into the flesh of Fyreslayer warriors, filling them with supernatural strength and endurance.
