Hey publishers and gamers, I have just started a new RPG newsite called the RPG Herald. It aims to be a one-stop news site for all things related with tabletop pen & paper RPGs. Other than news, I plan to have the site provide previews of game products and hope to score some interviews with...

I'm planning to buy myself a hardcopy of FantasyCraft and the Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign Setting but I've read somewhere that both of these books will be going through a second print run with some added text (particularly FantasyCraft which adds the erratas). I can't seem to relocate the...

If I was planning to run 4E during the pre-Spellplague era of FR, which 4E mechanic would have trouble fitting into the realmslore of the time? The only one that I could think up so far is how magic works which is drastically different mechanically but could be explained differently...

If a PC is dying and unconscious, can another adjacent PC make a heal check to allow the unconscious PC to use his second wind if he hasn't spend it yet? Relevant rules. Heal skill on second wind. (Player's Handbook pg. 185) Unconscious (Player's Handbook pg. 277) The argument was that...

How do you see and treat your RPG books? Are they Precious Gems or Just Dead Trees to you? Share how you treat your books, whether from the most peculiar to the most 'could care less'. Why?

This is probably a noob question about combat but it was raised up in our game on several occasions; attacking around corners. One of my players said that you can't attack around corners so I went to check the rules but can't find anything definitive. My findings so far tells me that corners...

If a Rogue has CA for flanking an enemy and another character grants CA against the same target with a power (e.g., Parry and Riposte, Fighter Encounter 3, Martial Power), does the benefit of CA stack? The +2 bonus of CA is an untyped bonus so RAW seems to support this but I'm checking here to...

For skill challenges that takes place outside a combat encounter, the PCs are not hard-pressed or threatened so they can take their time in doing it. So are they allowed to take 10? Will you allow it?

Penny Arcade/PvP D&D Podcast Episode 2 Anyone heard this yet? Other than listening to the Avenger in action, combat with these guys sounds fun! ;) It's also interesting to note that Chris announced which one are minions to the players beforehand and he forgot about Tide of Iron needing a shield.

I have a friend who is interested in making a boardgame that will be sold for profits as a business. I have no prior knowledge about the boardgame industry so I would like to ask how are boardgames made, designed, printed/manufactured and distributed in the industry. Also, are there any legal...

Forked from: How will WOTC prevent "group" memberships to DDI? I think it would be much more economical for a whole group to subscribe to one DDI account and it seems that WoTC wouldn't really have a way to stop that. I think it's possible because if my group ever decides to subscribe to...

Treasure of Talon Pass WoTC is giving another adventure module for Free RPG Day. Any thoughts ? :D

So Worldwide Dungeons & Dragons Game Day is over for most of us, I suppose everyone had their fun, their excitements and the great wondrous opportunity to play the complete 4E rules. Does anyone have their moments/stories/experience to share to our less fortunate community members (like myself)...

I've read some threads here when reviewing adventure modules, some posters simply reply that they didn't get to finish them because of RL issues or the PCs died and it was very hard to pick up from where they left off. I've had an experience with the Red Hand of Doom where I had to leave for...
