That would be the "they" of which I speak. Obviously, the races in question are from Star Frontiers, ever since the original box over 40 years ago. I'm just wondering if anyone knows why they didn't stick with the original names and felt the need to tweak the appearance and change names between...

Anyone know why they went with hadozee and plasmoid instead of yazirian and dralasite?

More Mork Borg metalness! My pet two-headed basilisk approves.

I don't know, kinda sounds like Starter Set with extra steps...

Yeah but Strahd isn't necessarily an "imitation" so much as he IS Dracula... for D&D. But, whatevs, have another pointy-eared, long-haired, emo Drac wanna be using the same name. No skin off my campaign :P

That does NOT look anything like Dracula! And besides, isn't Strahd von Zarovich supposed to be D&D's version of Dracula?

That is both crazy and frightening. Literal witch hunts in the late 90s. I wonder if any of the D&D playing celebrities have to deal with stuff like this in this day and age..?

Gary always dug the dice and said choosing a characters abilities was silly. I like that when playing "old school", but I'm also a fan of a player having as much control as possible in the creation of their character. Some campaigns, I literally have them choose ability scores based on character...

I found the d20s to be a bit too large, but I'd love to see something like this for Mystara or Greyhawk. I do like the map and dice box set up. Not sure how useful the cards are though...

It's not based on the book, but rather the original film. Have you watched the movie?

Isn't Frankenstein's monster just a flesh golem? I mean, that's where the whole 'flesh golem' thing came from...

Maybe it's a set-piece for what must surely be the upcoming World of Greyhawk setting book/boxed set?

RIP to the worlds of Greyhawk, Mystara, Dragonlance, Dark Sun, Spelljammer, and Birthright. It's been years, if WotC were ever going to do anything significant with these settings, it would have been done by now. Guess fans of those settings are forever on their own using stuff published back in...

You could actually see the change in "feel" of TSR between '83 and '84 through their books and marketing. I personally can't stand anything published after '83. It just feels too "corporate" or capitalist for me. The older stuff is what really got my imagination going. And I wasn't even a...

Sounds like "Let's Pretend" with extra steps, but I really wanna see the rest of that cover!
