    Monte Cook's new RPG: Numenera [UPDATED]

    Wow: Ten pages on one facet of a premise. I'm going to take this as example of why 'showing the audience versus telling the audience' can be very important. Can we move on now and talk a bit more about the classes, the system and other aspects of it?

    How is Baba Yaga pronounced?

    I dated a lovely girl from the Ukraine once and had asked her about this very thing. After listening to be me mangle it (I was pronouncing it as 'Bar-Bar Yar-Gar'), her eyes lit up: 'Ah! You mean BuhBah YugGah!' I'll take this over a pronunciation guide any day.

    How do you feel about the future of D&D after the official announcements?

    Pathfinder has been standing on its own two feet for some years now.

    How do you feel about the future of D&D after the official announcements?

    How do I feel? Skepitcal. Prejudicial. And a HUGE feeling of self-entitlement --this is following the feeling of being alienated by Fourth Edition and all the people that ran the project. Wizards can talk all they want about: Sacred Cows Iterations Universality Verisimilitude, or Pick...

    Getting rid of a few books, or a CHEAP PTOLUS CITY BY THE SPIRE

    No, Rappan Athuk is here. At time of writing, Ptolus has just sold.

    My other thread was about selling Ptolus, and World's Largest Dungeon is already under offer through a private sale, so here is the last one: Rappan Athuk Reloaded Limited Edition Boxed Set. You may bid on the item here on ebay.com.au

    Getting rid of a few books, or a CHEAP PTOLUS CITY BY THE SPIRE

    You may bid on the Rappan Athuk Reloaded here. I'll also put this in its own thread.

    Getting rid of a few books, or a CHEAP PTOLUS CITY BY THE SPIRE

    The only G modules I have are G2 and G3. They are monochrome and do not appear to be .au printings.

    Getting rid of a few books, or a CHEAP PTOLUS CITY BY THE SPIRE

    Its not listed yet. I am making a decision today (4th Dec 2011) whether to list it. FWIW, someone local to me offered to buy my WLD sight unseen, so I didn't even get a chance to list it.

    Getting rid of a few books, or a CHEAP PTOLUS CITY BY THE SPIRE

    ...so I was going through some boxes and unearthed some stuff that I have (in some cases opened, but) never used. Ptolus City by the Spire is one of them, so I thought to release it back into the world. You can view the item here. If you have ever wanted a hardcopy, this is your chance. I have...

    Forked Thread: How much does WotC policies matter to your enjoyment of the game

    This is not constructive discussion; this is sarcasm and is insulting. Give it a rest dude.

    PDFS--Of the WotC Court Case

    Very true, I can confirm this as my partner works on 'Question Documents' as her daily grind in a Police forensics lab. To answer the question, it only takes a forensic scientist to poinpoint the watermark with the printer in question, which is then tied to the manuafacturer, then the store...

    WotC puts a stop to online sales of PDFs

    I 'lol'ed at that one. But then, I have a warped sense of humour.

    So tell me about Dragon Warriors

    Done and done. Link removed. EDIT: And thinking about your post; I do resent your calling my post 'arguably bad taste'. So apology accepted and in future I would rather you report my initial posts to a suitable moderator as opposed to proffering insults with a caveat apology in an effort to...

    So tell me about Dragon Warriors

    I noticed that the core book contains the revised rules from books 1-6. I also see that some of the adventures are getting their own releases as well, complete with revised entries and rules. I do hope they corrected the 'read aloud' texts within -- the flavour was great but it did assume a...

    So tell me about Dragon Warriors

    Dragon Warriors and Warhammer are quite incestuous. Oliver Johnson and Dave Morris have worked for Ian Livingstone and Steve Jackson on a number of occasions, (White Dwarf, Warlock Magazine, Fighting Fantasy Gamebooks et.al). I remember reading somewhere that some of their ideas segued into...
