It's like WotC never learns. They farmed D&D out to obscure developers for years, with terrible results. Then they hit gold with an established developer. So, what do they do next? I am almost certain they will go with another obscure developer and we will be back where we started, with awful...

Not really a fan of the completely impractical bits of metal armor. Staff and magical effects are nice.

I have no idea what the animus against Rolemaster is (note it is Rolemaster, not RoleMaster). The new edition of Rolemaster just came out. In fact one of the books, Treasure Law, just released on DriveThruRpg literally today...

Here's the list (with a shout out to my personal favorite, Rolemaster Unified's Spell Law, at #5): Best selling fantasy RPGs of 2023 Fabula Ultima Atlas: High Fantasy by Need Games. Sandbox Generator by Atelier Clandestin. Exalted: Essence by Onyx Path Publishing. DRAGONLOCK Lost Dungeons...

You'll just have to buy the core rulebook, then pay an additional $19.99 per quarter for a season's pass, then you can also unlock the Paladin via microtransaction for $19.99 as well.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but I think my main point remains: the new edition of rules resolves and fixes many of the main problems previous editions had. The soft leather armors being trap armors, for example, and AT 1 (no armor) being too strong. And of course this new edition...

I sent an email on 9 December 2022 to columns@enpublishingrpg.com. I'm not sure whom Colin tried to contact; I've invited him to chime in.

Myself (just a humble player but aspiring reviewer) and the Marketing man at Iron Crown Enterprises have both independently reached out to ENWorld about the possibility of publishing a review of the new edition of Rolemaster (Rolemaster Unified) on ENWorld, but neither of us have ever gotten any...

Yes, the edition names were unfortunate. For anyone that is interested: The first edition is now called RM1 and RM2, since it got a revision (with few changes) a little after the first books came out in the early 80s. Then, what was really the second edition was confusingly called Rolemaster...

Well, if you dont' know any of the details of the new Rolemaster edition, I would encourage you to familiarize yourself with the system first. How can you say it doesn't solve any of the problems if you don't know what its solutions are? I think RMU has done a very good job of addressing the...

Fair enough. Sounds like RMU is not for you. Just wanted to note for anyone interested that RMU Core Law is now available in print, and Spell Law has been released in PDF. Next up is Treasure Law, though probably not for a few months. Also, the Electronic Roleplaying Assistant (which can be...

Requiring belief when that contradicts reality is being uncritical. I see someone didn't get the memo from our moderator.

Yes, you are adopting an uncritical attitude, and I am adopting a critical one. We can agree on that. The fact that they were compelled to be 'relatively honest' after they were caught trying to be chaotic evil does not foster in me an uncritical attitude.

Yes, fair point. I was engaging in what is generally called 'what aboutism'. The more direct point I should have made is that the general confusion seems to stem, at least to some extent, from Wizards' use of terms that suggest a new edition ('One D&D', 'next generation') when that was never...

Yes, because WotC has been so transparent and ethical in what they've done recently that all the confusion must clearly just be all these unethical players' fault.
