    Savage Pathfinder character design

    Thanks for the feedback. The only reason I am considering not using the converted classes is that after so many years of playing D&D and Pathfinder I'm kind of bored with the standard classes. I can easily adjust the players or monsters power level to balance things out. I was considering...

    Savage Pathfinder character design

    I'm not sure how popular Pathfinder for Savage Worlds are on this board but I was looking for some opinions from other players. I am going to be running Rise of the Runelords and I am thinking about abandoning the converted classes and letting my players design their characters using the...

    Tell me about the RPG section of your local game store

    I end up buying most of my RPG stuff online too. I don't play D&D or Pathfinder and the games I play that are among the few my FLGS stocks are missing the items I am looking for.

    Tell me about the RPG section of your local game store

    There are a few in Columbus, OH but only two I visit. The one I go to the most is The Guardtower but I don't go often since I have as much RPG material and boardgames as I need currently (not want, but need) and they moved to a new location that is further from me. They are mostly dedicated to...

    Streaming Services: Discussion and Power Rankings

    Better Netflix gets their hands on it than the Ellisons but enough with these huge mergers already.

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Should Make 5.5E Specific Setting

    This a pretty long thread so this may have been brought up already but I don't think D&D 3.5's default setting, at least at publication, was Eberron. A quick glance at the list of deities in the Player's Handbook seems to indicate it was Greyhawk. Greyhawk didn't see much in the way of...

    Science Fiction: Greatest TV Shows Part III

    Fair. I just assumed that all posts auto-updated to make sure they were current ;)

    Renegade to Reprint Lords of Waterdeep

    I didn't realize the game was out of print. I have the game and expansion and play it often. Great game.

    Science Fiction: Greatest TV Shows Part III

    Disallowing The Expanse seems arbitrary. While the show is based on a series of novels and it did not tell the story of the last three books, the show itself ends with what felt like a satisfactory ending. Even though we were left with unanswered plot threads I am sure we can all think of some...

    Your Three Desert Island RPGs

    I'm surprised how few votes D&D 5E is getting. I don't think it made anyone's list. I'm also surprised that D&D 2E (my favorite edition) got as many votes as it has, granted it was only a few. Edited - Apparently I didn't pay close enough attention and 5e did make people's lists, maybe it's...

    How Do You Like Your Steak?

    Medium rare but, depending on how well it's cooked, I can get by on medium.

    Your Three Desert Island RPGs

    SWADE Call of Cthulhu I own all of the Forged in the Dark games but haven't played any yet but I would probably pick one of those. They all sound interesting and it would give me something new to try out.

    Other D&D Variant What is your favorite version of D&D offshoot/D20 fantasy today? Tell us why it is the best!

    For a long time it was Pathfinder 1E but over the past few years it's Castles & Crusades. It feels like AD&D 1E & 2E but is really simple to run and converting old AD&D adventures on the fly is super easy.

    Spoilers What do casual fans get wrong about Star Wars?

    There is a pretty wide chasm of Star Wars fans that falls between those two camps. I've watched all of the movies, Disney+ shows and most of the cartoons and read a small amount of the early, no longer canon, novels and a very small number of the original Marvel Star Wars comics that started...

    PSA: Don't Let Orcs Loose in Your Fantasy Human World

    Either or maybe somewhere in between depending on the campaign.
