A monthly post where I talk about the things I’ve enjoyed and recommendations from the last month.
Hello Readers!
November felt like another month that came and left quick! It weirdly felt like I had a lot of time and weirdly not enough to enjoy my hobbies. I still tried to squeeze in a few things through the month.
Blood Bowl Season 3 is now out! To prepare for my buddy running a league in the new year, I picked up the big season premiere box with the two teams, rulebook, and accessories. I’ve read through the entire book and came away excited to play in the league. I’ve played the 2nd edition, but this is the first one I’ve picked up the core book to read all the rules. The previous times a friend would just tell me how the rules worked.
As much as I want to play as Snotlings, that’s probably going to be a horrible experience for since how tough they are to play. I’ll probably stick with my chaos dwarves.
I saw Alton Brown has been putting out some new videos! This may be the first time I talk about cooking, but his previous show “Good Eats” has a special place in my heart. One of the few shows that my parents and I actually sat around to watch whenever it was on. It has some good memories, and I genuinely enjoy his style of teaching people how to cook.
Then on the complete unhinged side of my video watching, Caddicarus has a new video out. One of the few Video game reviewers I still keep up with. I used to watched reviews from tons of channels to keep up with the video game zeitgeist. They all seem to pivot away to follow with things that work better for their channel. Typically, I find the content they focus on, is not for me, however Caddicarus’s pivot is one I thoroughly enjoyed and helped get through Covid times.
One last Video game adjacent recommendation, Dan Floyd’s New Frame Plus has an entire series that goes over the animation of the Final Fantasy games. I do not know why it took me so long to watch these. The series is still going, and the latest one was on Final Fantasy 6. You can tell he loves the animation in the games and appreciates them in a way that makes me want to pick them up to play.
With Tabletop Roleplaying games, I am taking a break from my Friday’s Fabula Ultimata campaign. I was starting to feel some burn out and told my group I needed to switch games for a bit. I wanted something that would be relatively short compared to the 25+ sessions of Fabula Ultima. I found myself suggesting one of The Gauntlet’s games. These all have a campaign end game timer along with several missions that are minimal prep. Once we finish our game of The Between, I’ll return to write more in depth about the system. Though I have to admit, I started reading these solely due to The Silt Verses.
A horror audio drama that deals with strange faiths that kind of run the world and the people that believe in them. I am not doing it justice, but I strongly recommend the series if you are a fan of folk horror. I picked up the RPG, and while you don’t need to listen to the podcast to enjoy the RPG, it did recommend two episodes to listen in order to get an idea of the missions and world. After hearing those two, I went through the entire first season.
That’s all I got for November 2025, if there’s anything that stuck out to you or anything I should check out. Please leave it in the comments.
