I self-published a game many years ago, and a supplement for it, and I am working vaguely on something else in my spare time. Even if my... -
BBayushi_seikuro reacted to Parmandur's post in the thread Ben Riggs: 'The Golden Age of TTRPGs is Dead' with Like.

Watched Mononoke Hime again today (in IMAX!) and revived an old idea I've read somewhere of using the premise of the movie and apply it...

BBayushi_seikuro reacted to Umbran's post in the thread D&D General This Makes No Sense: Re-Examining the 1e Bard with Like.
The secret is in realizing that the AD&D rules are themselves only vaguely compatible with the AD&D rules.

BBayushi_seikuro reacted to EthanSental's post in the thread D&D General Take A Look At The Class Boards From The New D&D Starter Set with Like.

BBayushi_seikuro reacted to haakon1's post in the thread AD&D 1E What was so bad about unearthed arcana 1e? with Like.
Same for my groups. The parts we used were the Nonhuman Deities, rarely the polearms, rarely the birth and class tables, and some of the...

I loved it as a middle schooler, but mechanically, it's a trash fire, even moreso than the rest of 1E. It just became clear to us, even...

BBayushi_seikuro reacted to Cadence's post in the thread AD&D 1E What was so bad about unearthed arcana 1e? with Like.
