I'm currently considering the player's/GM hardcover/PDF plus Tarot for $83. I still have to run Labyrinth and Northlands, so I'm not planning on getting the adventure right now. I usually get the Foundry module to support them continuing to create for Foundry, but .... read on with respect to...

This is how Kobold Press does things. (Same with Paizo, by the way, if you aren't subscribed to the product line) If you go buy any of Kobold Press' books it's approximately: $40 for book only. $20 for PDF only. $50 for book+PDF. It's not my favorite way (obviously since it costs more) and some...

I was on the discord call yesterday when Celeste and the other designer were talking about it. I think they've done a pretty awesome job at the idea. Will it work? Time will tell.

ah! I usually only read the FAQ for new or small companies. Thanks for pointing that out.

Very well designed bundles in that....for the things I wanted a la carte, it seems better to get the complete Print/Digital bundle. Hmm....

It's looking really cool and I think I'm going to pledge something, but why in the ever-loving (quack) is it in canadian dollars? Never seen loonies used before on Kobld Press Kickstarters. (Or maybe I never paid attention??) Making it hard to understand without clicking through to see the real...

cool. Time to see if there is stuff on here for me. I don't necessarily want to run a fully horror campaign, but maybe would borrow some stuff like ancestries or heritages.

Yeah, I think you and I agree, I didn't didn't say it elegantly enough. If the director is being artistic (hence Fifth Element) I'm ok with random artistic things that may or may not make sense. (whether that's clothing, buildings, cars, weapons, etc) But Star Wars has evolved to this place...

how long per session? (that's a key element missing here) If I were playing weekly just because of my life circumstances I could not play 4 hours every week. With games I run and games I'm a player in, we basically budget 4 hours/month. So it's 4 hours at once, 2 every other week, or 1 every...

games are almost never too short and almost always too long. I don't know how big your table is, but if it's just 1 out of 5 or 6 folks who isn't happy, ask them to just go with it for this campaign and next time in session 0 you guys can decide if you want fast, slow, or medium.

I know it's science fantasy, but this is pretty realistic. How often do regimes completely nullify resistance? Almost never. It can even low-key simmer for generations (looking at Quebec, Basque, and Catalan)

Don't know about the ideas being not good - tons of people play Pathfinder 2e, Nimble and/or other games with mana points. Now, they might not be your taste, which is fine. The only thing about mana that I disagree - if you look at jRPGs (the place I'm most familiar with mana) more powerful...

To me the whle plot of clone wars is saved by the cartoon. Too bad we weren't doing prestige TV back then. I think the prequels might have worked better as TV. (Although not with Lucas as a writer)

go the draw steel/daggerheart route and roll 2 dice to make the probabilities less swingy control spells by mana points (like JRPGs and modern TTRPGs) instead of circles if I understand this correctly, go the nimble/daggerheart way where the amount of attacks by a monster depends on the party...

And I think that stuff works awesome if you're Luc Besson doing Fifth Element or something. Not so much Star Wars given what it's become.
