He introduced me to Obsidian Portal, which is a site that allows GMs and their players to have a spot to go to and get their sheets maps and, if the GM is on top of it, a gameplay journal. We wanted to talk with him about the benefits of using something like this and some of his other gaming experiences.

Glenn's Review
Glenn introduces us to Five Tribes, from Days of Wonder. This is a 2-4 player game is a strategy/meeples game. You have arrived in the wonderous land of Naqala, just as the Sultan has died. Will you be the one to become the new ruler? To do this, you'll need to fight, bargain, and build your way to rulership. It's a rules lite game that allows for quick setup and it is easy to learn.

The Fallout 4 DLC, called Automaton, has a great storyline and add some continuing encounters while you wander the Commonwealth. This DLC introduces robots to the world. Once you've completed the storyline, you'll be able to create your own robots to guard your settlements or accompany you through the Wasteland. I've had a great time playing this DLC and it's added some additional interesting hours of game play. I highly recommend adding this to your Fallout 4 experience.

Kickstarter Spotlight
Unbound is a new universal RPG system from Look, Robot. You'll be able to mix genres to create the custom world you've always wanted to experience. Medieval cyber aliens? You can make that happen. You'll be able to mix and match to your heart's desire. While we haven't seen too much of their work, we were pretty excited by the concept they've laid out.
