    Fandom Exiting RPG Business With Sale of Cortex

    My concern is that the production quality will no longer equal what Fandom did with the first two books. They may have set the bar a little too high. No one, so far, has really been able to make the Cortex pipeline move faster than a trickle though, so curious if Dire Wolf Digital is able to...

    Check Out This Preview of the Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game

    616 is itself a variant (or perhaps an original) number of the Beast, so not likely chosen for that reason. Some stories say Earth-616 was chosen because one of Captain Britain's developers didn't like superheroes and placed a Satanic dig as a mockery. More conspiratorial minded anti-comics...

    Monte Cook Games’ Next Kickstarter Is Ptolus (for 5E and Cypher)

    Monte also said they were no plans to do a Cypher version, because he preferred to go forward, not look back. Never say never in business, though.

    Nominate your MOST ANTICIPATED RPG of 2020

    Cortex Prime. Though its track record also indicates I may be voting for it in 2021, too. The publisher WAS Magic Vacuum... now it's whatever the name is of the company that does D&D Beyond.

    That Full D&D Renault Commercial Is Here And It Features Tiamat And Venger!

    That was amazing! Finally, a real ending to the series... product placement forgiven! This needs to be included with future boxed sets of the cartoon.

    D&D 5E Mythological Figures: Genghis Khan (5E)

    I'm assuming the AGE tag is accidental? I stumbled into this article from a tag link for that system.

    Larry Elmore Creates Art For Grimmerspace

    So... Star Frontiers... I love it! Wish it was for a system I played. Miss the hell out of Elmore's work.

    John Carter of Mars Launches

    Stacie - I guess Pathfinder 2E is the new most anticipated! Changeling the Lost 2E gets bumped to...er... #6, right?

    John Carter of Mars Launches

    Also, Savage Worlds Adventure Edition (the #1 most anticipated on the same list) is available at DriveThru as of today. Glorious day for RPG releases!

    News Digest: John Wick Presents Layoffs, Big D&D Releases Finally Out, Pathfinder Playtest Updates,

    Minor correction: the Savage Worlds Adventure Edition is not a "full-size hardcover", but rather a graphic novel-sized hardcover. The format is only a little bit taller than the previous Explorer's Edition books.

    Sandy Petersen's Cthulhu Mythos Returns to 5E D&D

    Metallica songs and foreign films make me suspect otherwise. Gamers have always tended to assume their hobby was somehow more important than it is or has more reach than it does.

    Sandy Petersen's Cthulhu Mythos Returns to 5E D&D

    Clark Aston Smith. Frank Belnap Long. Robert E. Howard. August Derleth. Ramsay Campbell. These are people that are more associated with the Cthulhu Mythos than any game designer could hope to be. Not to cast shade on Sandy Peterson's accomplishments in the gaming industries, but the Mythos is...

    Monte Cook Games' New Kickstarter Is Your Best Game Ever

    Had zero interest in this... but the Cypher System Rulebook is being updated to Numenera 2's specs as part of this Kickstarter. Seems a little early for a redux, but glad there is still some support for the generic version.

    Dungeons & Dragons has 15 Million Players in NA Alone; Storyline Is "The Da Vinci Code meets Gangs o

    Are they still counting computer game D&D players to inflate their numbers? Does the Treasure of Tarmin game for Mattel Aquarius count? If not, I haven't played D&D in a couple of years.

    Monte Cook Games Announced Numenera 2: Discovery & Destiny!

    Part of me is okay with it, provided the revision is what I think it is: Discovery being essentially a hardcover players book with the two Character Options books being baked in. I never liked the slim softcovers containing the kind of stuff I think of as essential. But, as others have noted...
