When elves, dwarves and humans were described as races, I could understand the reasoning. But if they are defined as species, they can...

I think there must be something more here. If culture was such a broad palette to work from, then what do we even need fantasy species...

I'm not sure how you'd have a framework of rules that don't impose limits, if for no other reason than doing something in a given way...

I dont know if I agree with that and in fact think the opposite is true. I think having halfling barbarian be as strong as a goliath...

Re: D&D 4E Skill Challenges I've said this elsewhere, but I ran them very differently when I was running 4E. Instead of X successes...

I know you're familiar with D&D 4E, so a Roguelike might be similar to an encounter deck, but the map would also be randomly generated...

I don't think there's necessarily "scenes" at all. In some, maybe there are. There might be a defined start point and a defined...

What I had in mind would be similar to how some "rogue-like" video games are generated. Something is generated; how the players choose...

Is it fair to say that mechanically representing differences in species is not by itself "bad," but perhaps the approaches that D&D has...

If there is ever a Daggerheart Munchkin set, you could use the same cards for two different games.

Kinda makes sense. During D&D 3rd Edition, books upon books of feats and prestige classes were sold. People (including myself) bought...

Funny, I'd never considered mixing edibles and roleplaying games in precisely this manner.
