Sorry for the really late post. This week's highlights we have a series on making battlemats, making interesting villains and finding more uses for your minions.
In other news, the RPGBN Advisory Panel Election polls has just ended and Micheal Wolf from Stargazer's World will be representing the community from now on as the voice of RPG bloggers in the network. Congrats and may his role make a better RPGBN.
