RPG Review: Adventurer Conqueror King System (2012) by Gus
Designed expressly for the purpose of providing interesting domain-level play, putting the "game" back into the endgame, this Old School Renaissance game takes systems from the Mentzer Basic, Expert and Companion D&D rulesets, adds modern design sensibilities and some great, original ideas, resulting in a fairly streamlined game engine (especially at the domain level) while still retaining its some of its quirky, old school identity.

RPG Review: Faith of Sigmar (2012) by Michael Bay
FFG's first print-on-demand card set for Warhammer provides new spells and items specifically for priests of Sigmar, and a taste of the new rules to come in the Hero's Call expansion.
