What kind of games are you running!? I approve! :) My collection of different sized fold out banquet and work tables that or select from and arrange depending upon the game and number of people would never survive us standing on them, but I wouldn't be particularly put out if one is...

The real challenge for adults, I've found, is to retain a sense of play. Those who do, those who don't mind or can laugh off looking dumb and making mistakes, who can enjoy doing something for the fun of it are the ones most likely to find themselves good at something, often precisely because...

This discussion thread has more historical significance than his museum.

Wait... I've just always thought it made logical sense (in English I read left to right, so...) to put the core books on the left. Core, supplements/expansion rules, settings, and then adventures. Now I'm questioning if this is just because I'm left handed.

I buy nearly all adventure material in digital formats. I personally don't find the cost and bookshelf space worth it to get most adventure books in print. The one exception is The Enemy Within books. Several of them have a lot of additional rules (e.g for road and river travel, trade, etc.) AND...

If you are looking to jump in, I would wait for 5e for a physical book or buy the starter set. One problem with 4e at this point, and why I welcome 5e if they do it right, is that you almost need to buy multiple books. At least Winds of Magic. If they can combine, streamline, and better organize...

I am so very jealous of you right now. :‑)

Yeah, I feel that if you don't buy the physical books soon after they come out, you are going to have to eat some hefty shipping costs ordering from Cubicle7‑‑if they even still have them in stock. I have access to some great FFGS and none care much Cubicle7 stuff and don't restock when they've...

Maybe, but supporting such a crunchy system like WFRP with all the QOL features and automations Mooman has worked into the Foundry WFRP game system is a huge undertaking for what is mostly one developer with some community support. And it is not the only Cubicle7 game system he is developing for...

The only D&D I've played this year was a four‑hour Deathwish5e game at Gamehole Con last weekend. I GM 8 hours of WFRP4e per month and played in a biweekly WFRP4e game for a few months. I don't have time for much more gaming than that.

I'm cautiously optimistic. If they can clean up and consolidate the rules, and make some changes based on the years of 4e play and feedback, I'll happily buy the book. In some ways, I think it is easier to ensure backwards compatibility with WFRP 4e. The game is not as finely balanced as other...

When I ran in person, I ran from my house. I had a dedicate gaming/activity area that had a separate entrance and a solid door to the stairs going upstairs. So I could have a group over without disturbing the rest of the family (and vice versa). I had run a game from a players house one or...

I've been meaning to do a weekend in Geneva since I've moved to Milwaukee. The Gygax Memorial fund sells an "Adventurer's Map of Lake Geneva": Adventurer's Map of Lake Geneva — Gygax Memorial Fund, Inc. There is also a Dragon Days festival in early October: DRAGON DAYS™ FANTASY FESTIVAL I have...

I just binged listened to the first book. I really enjoyed it. Not just the writing and story, but the narrator is quite good. There are some over-wrought moments where the internal dialoging could be edited down, but overall the story grabbed me and I spent WAAAY too much time listening to it...

I buy the books. When I'm getting near the end of campaign, I'll look over games I've not run or new games I've heard about. If the later, I'll often buy at least the core book to read it over. Starting with player suggestions and then buying the books and running a game generally doesn't work...

@DarkCrisis Thanks for the recommendation. Looks right up my alley and the Kindle versions of the books are very affordable. Kinda put off about getting an audible subscription. But the book is free on audible with a free one-month subscription. If I really like it and go onto the other books...

I'd try clam nog.

I find that my path to expensive books goes like this: a game looks very interesting. I'll sit on the idea of getting it for a while and think about the chance that I'll ever use it. I'll get the PDF, read through it and see if my interest grows and will start floating the idea of trying it with...
