Today is the first day of the new a new era for this Blog. After several years dedicated to Heroquest, it will now open up to Role Playing Games in general.
Why such a change ?
As readers may have noticed, this blog has not only been about Heroquest but it has also given tips to play with children. You can find the articles here.
As time flows, the children are getting older. To the point that they finally got out of the dungeon to earn the ultimate reward : a whole new dimension to the game. For those interested, the ultimate quest was briefly depicted in this post.
Where does the new name comes ?
Alea Jacta Erat is the past tense of the latin quote "Alea Jacta Est" ("The die is cast" in English). This of course refers to the random part of every role playing game. Which is materialized by the typical multi-faced dice.
But this name also has another historical meaning for the author of this Blog and the first one who will guess it will get a very special reward... It's up to you !!!
What will come next ?
As a logical continuation of the previous articles, the first RPG that will be featured here will be Warhammer.
I am currently mastering two campaigns : one IRL and one on a forum (in French). Both campaigns being linked, only those who follow the later one will learn about the IRL one. Note that anyone interesting in starting another campaign (online or IRL) should not hesitate to send me a message.
As a consequence, you will find very soon resources for Warhammer RPG featured on this blog.
