    Exodus "borrows" Battletech Terminology for the Cataphract Class

    Maybe each individual term isn't, but they way it is put together is. Even the Cataphract trailer says they act as medieval knights and there hasn't been combat like this since the Middle Ages. But sure, if you don't look at the whole picture you can nitpick it to death and say nothing is there.

    Exodus "borrows" Battletech Terminology for the Cataphract Class

    Just got my books and there seems to be some "similarities" between Battletech and the Cataphract class. A few of those would have been fine, but Heat Sinks, weapons with Heat generation values, Autocannons, Long Range Missiles, Short Ranged Missiles, and on top of calling them Mechs is a bit...

    Other D&D Variant Call of Cthulhu d20 Collectors' Guide

    I thought one of the Miskatonic U monographs had d20 stats, but I'm not sure.

    Other D&D Variant Call of Cthulhu d20 Collectors' Guide

    I know that Shadows fixes the whole Max Sanity problem with the Mythos Skill by having multiple skills (and then changed the Sanity system). And I know Petersen made the Cthulhu Mythos for PF1, PF2, and 5e, but even with that I thought there was a Miskatonic U imprint that had d20 stats, but...

    They aren't all that rare and can be found fairly cheaply on Ebay.

    Other D&D Variant Call of Cthulhu d20 Collectors' Guide

    I know this is old news, but I'm currently running a Game of CoC d20 and have been combing the web for resources and this is what I've found in the meantime. If anyone knows of any more, let me know. Call of Cthulhu d20 collectors guide Rulebooks Call of Cthulhu d20 Corebook Delta Green (7th...

    I was thinking the same thing.

    Peregrine's Nest: How Vampire Got Its Groove Back

    I haven't seen an issue. And after running Exalted, cinematic is a relative term.

    Peregrine's Nest: How Vampire Got Its Groove Back

    I've run it at conventions and the only house rule I've had to use was that every 10 is two successes, not that weird "two tens are four successes" critical rule. Now to find a group to run it regularly for, sigh.

    D&D General Processes to make Magical Items

    Everyone is using the search for exotic items as a way of manufacturing magic items. But I was looking at Player's Option: Spells and Magic (I have a huge A/D&D library), and it also talks about exotic processes. I know that Sauron made the One Ring in Mt. Doom, but locations are not what I'm...

    Born from Ice: Stone Age RPG – An Interview With Loren Small (Small Cog Creative)

    I've been watching in anticipation for awhile. It looks like its doing about $1,000 a day or so, even though I think I've seen pledge retractions.

    Born from Ice: Stone Age RPG – An Interview With Loren Small (Small Cog Creative)

    I've already backed it. I like how it combines class and subclass instead of the way it was done in Everyday Heroes (in fact it is very similar to how I did my home conversion of Modern d20). Though I have been comparing it to Wurm.

    The Rise And Fall Of Evil Genius Games

    (somebody probably already said it, but): I think they should look into retooling this into a Firefly game if they can get that license.
