First, my credentials - I was born in the North (north of Chester!) but have lived in the South basically all my life. Secondly, for the rugby reference: In November 1886, an unusual series of events led to special consideration being given to the question of whether a dog could be considered...

Book 29 was the last one that Joe wrote before he passed. Books 30 & 31 were co-written by Vincent Lazzari and Ben Devere (Joe's son) using Joe's notes between 2017-2019 and 2020. Those last two New Order books are real chonkers though, with Book 32 reportedly coming out in two parts...

The Collectors' Editions stalled twice, firstly under Mongoose and then under Mantikore-Verlag. Holmgard Press then took back up the baton and have been steadily finishing the Collectors' Editions (including the first ever editions of 29-31), whilst also printing the brand new Definitive...

"Aliens with space blasters" make cameo appearances in the classic Might & Magic RPG franchise. Of course, by the time you get access to the alien parts of the games, you're facing off against dragons, demons, angels and titans, so you don't feel any more like an instant god amongst men than...

From what I remember, d20PFSRD has a whole bunch of alternate skill uses, both from Paizo and other 3P books. I have used those before.

Would you be interested in sharing any of this separately? I'm always interested in other people's rules ideas. :)

That ***** is very cute! I was walking home through my town's Goodwill evening last week and the gits were playing Last Christmas. It wasn't even December yet!
