    Need help designing a deity that isn't a total ripoff of Dibella from Elder Scrolls

    Dibella is pretty much a ripoff of Aphrodite. He temple is even reminiscent of a Greek or Roman temple although in the dwemer style architecture. I don't see much chance of copyright infringement as long as you stay generic.

    Rebel Minis New 28mm RPG Minis Line

    Yeah, it looks like it did. And thank you for making metal miniatures. Crumbly resin is junk for gaming.

    Why Do Batman Fans Hate Christopher Nolan?

    Four minutes for me. Between that and wrestling, I took SyFy off my channel list.

    D&D 5E Release date?

    IIRC there was a major release last year or the year before where you could preorder on the publishers website and pick up in a designated line at GenCon. I think it may have been Privateer Press or Wyrd. Something like that would be nice for 5e.

    some what odd thread necromancy by single digit posters

    #1 - Umbran hit on part of it #2 - low post counts may be the RPGers in their 40's or 50's that don't post on any forum and aren't aware of the insane fear of necroposts that grips some forumites. #3 - most current threads have degraded into a 10-page argument about something that barely...

    D&D 1E Check out what Kinkos did to My 1e AD&D UA

    It seems from the responses after your "necro" post that this topic is still relevant.

    Ebooks on the way out?

    Along that same line of logic, we'll assume my house floods. I need to replace an $80 reader. All my eBooks are stored in the cloud, so I only need to replace some silicone and plastic. Or not, since I can read them on my phone, tablet, and PC. My library of hardbound books are a total loss.

    D&D 1E Check out what Kinkos did to My 1e AD&D UA

    Yes. Kinko's is a FedEx storefront.

    Why Do Batman Fans Hate Christopher Nolan?

    They have worn the paint off Batman, Spiderman, and Superman. Anytime I see a movie teased for any of these IPs it just shows that Hollywood has very little imagination. Redbox only, if I'm even tempted to see it.

    D&D 5E magic map artifact

    * it speaks in riddles * things it considers cool/fun/awesome to go find may not always be healthy for the party (low chance of this so the party doesn't decide to just toss it in the fire) * it has a chance of breaking those silent stealthy moments

    QR codes in books?

    I would be more likely to scan a QR than to bother with a link I have to type. Actually, my eyes would probably filter out the existence of a URL since that's usually an auto-ignore for me.

    Ebooks on the way out?

    That depends a bit on the format. There is a WWII wargaming rulebook called "I Ain't Been Shot, Mum" that uses an interactive/bookmarked PDF to get you through quite nicely. Of course it works better on my tablet than my reader...

    Ruined forever

    Yes, that also. But I didn't want to get too wordy. Plus, I figured that 'SyFy' dislike would be universal in this group.

    Ruined forever

    The remake of Battlestar Galactica. That, plus wrestling, put SyFy on my 'skip" channel list.

    Ebooks on the way out?

    If it were possible to convert my collection to ePub format, I would quickly and happily truck a few hundred pounds of books to the recycler. I can store 30k books on my memory card I charge my device about once a week even though it can last about 3weeks on a charge (weekly is easier to...

    D&D 5E What's the rush? Has the "here and now" been replaced by the "next level" attitude?

    If someone wants to build a necromancer, give them low level skills that allow them to have the satisfaction of playing a necromancer at low levels instead of putting them in a bum rush to get to a higher level to play their character. I think earlier the term "instant gratification" was used...

    Ebooks on the way out?

    EBook revenue likely dropped off in the US because of the antitrust lawsuits against some major publishers that were price fixing their eBooks. Now they aren't selling for ridiculous prices. I doubt that quantity has dropped. Also, people that bought a lot of eBooks now have a credit to use...

    D&D 5E Need help - back in the DM chair - easy adventures for D&D Next?

    Ghosts of Dragonspear Castle is fairly straightforward, has a lot of the classic DND tropes, and also has the playtest rules bundled with the PDF.
