Has anyone played it? Has anyone used the Mirkwood Campaign? What did you think of it? Good? Bad? Playable? Unplayable? House rules? Mods? Opinions? I am actually thinking of doing some 5e D&D as other games have withered on the vine and I am really not a fan of vanilla D&D but I think (after...

Somehow, you acquired the rights to Star Wars. However, one of the stipulations of the deal is that you must reboot the franchise. The original movies, the Legends EU, all the Disney Wars stuff, it's all in the past. It's your Star Wars universe now. What is your reboot like? What's changed...

What kind of setting does your group use most often? 1) A professionally created setting published by WotC or a 3rd party. 2) A homebrew setting created exclusively by the GM with little or no input from the players. 3) A homebrew setting created using a collaborative effort by the GM and...

I have a question regarding the extent of GM authority. I would like people to answer this poll to see what the gaming community thinks should happen in a particular situation. The group gathers to play a new campaign... The GM "I would like to play a campaign influenced by Game of Thrones. It...

Would you ever play in or run a game with all the PCs being of a single class? I am just curious as in the way back when times when I payed D&D this didn't seem to be a big deal, whereas nowadays it does. Please feel free to tell me to get bent!

Maybe it's the oldness, or maybe just a lack of imagination, but I no longer find the fantastical all that fantastic. I tire of the endless additions of strange PCs and worlds where magic is commonplace. Give me humans struggling with the problems mere mortals face. Give me PCs that are...
