    D&D General Classic Gold Box D&D CRPGs coming to Steam

    Also, they are as close to Rules As Written a game designed for DOS can allow - complete with coinage having weight. (Unfortunately, there isn't really a bank in the games you can use to stash some of your cash in, like Bethesda would later use in Arena & Daggerfall.)

    Ben Riggs: 'The Golden Age of TTRPGs is Dead'

    My town recently had a FLGS open. Their stock distribution was: a bunch of shelves of Warhammer, A ton more shelves of MTG and Pokémon behind the counter, and one small set of shelves (basically a 1x3 set of Kallax) for RPG books, mostly D&D. The do have table space for play, but they also do...

    WotC What do Monsters Taste Like. Weird little video from WotC.

    There was a bit in a KODT strip with a throwaway gag about the uses of purple impalers "With Brian talking about 'slay and filet'" until they got into the main gag that was BA's new Critical Miss tables.

    WotC What do Monsters Taste Like. Weird little video from WotC.

    Particularly with the Delicious in Dungeon anime coming out on Netflix next year (and the manga has recently concluded in Japan).

    Quick follow-up: The Strong Museum of Play does take board and Tabletop Gaming related material.

    Sale Presenting The E. Gary Gygax Estate Auction!

    Man, I wish there was a tabletop gaming equivalent of the Video Game History Foundation for stuff like those convention programs and art slides to go to (the kind of ephemera that everyone thinks isn't worth anything and throws away until the time comes where a researcher actually needs it and...

    Final Fantasy XIV Getting an Official TTRPG

    It looks like it's been taken down. It may have been put up early.

    D&D General What "Rating" Do You Prefer Your D&D

    I'd go with a hard PG-13, maybe a soft to mid-level R for violence, and PG-13 for sexual content.

    What's Next for Starfinder

    Probably taking out another Ancestry that's too close to 3rd edition, rather than retconning the damn thing to something closer to the Creative Commons licensed 5e SRD.

    D&D General What happened POD classics at DMSGuild

    Isn't the conversion work being done by DriveThru, not WotC?

    TSR Looking for information on the TSR side on an apocryphal story

    Sorry for the Necro, but I've found a teeny bit more information on this from a Japanese perspective - specifically an interview with Ryu Mizuno (creator of Lodoss) among others, for the anniversary of Lodoss and the new edition of the Lodoss RPG. Source...

    Rebellion Acquires Tunnels & Trolls

    So, Webbed Sphere is just retaining Flying Buffalo's board game and PBM business?

    WotC may have sent the Pinkertons to a magic leakers home. Update: WotC confirms it and has a response.

    I need to clarify something now, as I think it's necessary if this discussion is actually going to go anywhere meaningful: Are you operating from the assumption that Cannon lied and made all this up - the threats, his wife's tears - to get views?

    WotC may have sent the Pinkertons to a magic leakers home. Update: WotC confirms it and has a response.

    Why are you assuming the person with the YouTube channel is a "clout chaser chasing clout"? By that logic, I have a YouTube channel, so I would also be a clout chaser chasing clout, and so would the people who run this site. And again, I also trust Linda Codega to have done her due diligence in...

    WotC may have sent the Pinkertons to a magic leakers home. Update: WotC confirms it and has a response.

    And that requires me to give both the Pinkertons (who wrote the report to Wizards) and Wizards the benefit of the doubt. I'm not inclined to give Wizards the benefit of the doubt, and I don't trust the Pinkertons at all ever - and as demonstrated by the stories I linked about the shooting in...

    WotC may have sent the Pinkertons to a magic leakers home. Update: WotC confirms it and has a response.

    No, I'm not being silly. Wizards has a demonstrated track record, starting with the OGL fiasco, of lying when their policies blow up in their face - and they've basically done so here. This is their first statement from the original article: Here's the second statement from the follow-up...

    WotC may have sent the Pinkertons to a magic leakers home. Update: WotC confirms it and has a response.

    We agree that Cannon is not a multi-million dollar corporation. We agree that Cannon has some experience playing Magic: The Gathering. We agree he is married. We agree that he did not attempt to retract the previous version of the OGL and replace it with a version that would force publishers to...
