    Taylor Navarro Joins Wizards of the Coast as D&D Designer

    Yes. In a way. Fans, I'm not so sure as they tend to stick with the edition they love. Some still play Basic as you surely know. However anyone who hears about D&D would still by the books that say D&D on the cover. I apologize about my way of putting this. I don't think any game is "the best"...

    I'll take it. Technically or not, no one on this site has ever said I was right about anything before. You have my shield my friend.

    Taylor Navarro Joins Wizards of the Coast as D&D Designer

    Are we though? I'm taking about making 6E a more story forward ttrpg, not branding a different product with the same logo. Putting the D&D logo on a chess set would make it D&D Chess. Putting it on a ttrpg would make it a D&D ttrpg.

    Taylor Navarro Joins Wizards of the Coast as D&D Designer

    I feel like this "it wouldn't be D&D anymore" has come up in several "how would you make 6E" discussions and the like and my opinion on the matter differ somewhat. I would claim that it would be D&D as long as the place the D&D brand on the cover. D&D has never been the best ttrpg in the world...

    OSR OSR RPGs with no class system

    Black Sword Hack is class-less and based on the Black Hack. GOZR is classless in a sense (but is it OSR?).

    Goodman Games: Our Efforts Have Been Mischaracterized

    If y'all wanna try something that has great usability, great layout, great design, and isn't Goodman Games, y'all should try The Merry Mushmen. Their adventure The Horrendous Hounds of Hendenburgh just won a Cairnie.

    I have a Battlecat

    Yes. Or rather, my mother still has my Battle Cat from when I was little. She also has my Panthor I think.

    Best practices for easy-to-run modules [+]

    Unless I want to place the map at a different place, facing a different direction, at which point it becomes a nuisance. I feel writing adaptable adventures is a good thing so that I can use them as needed for my homebrew. I wouldn't use the word guessing and I disagree that there are no...

    Best practices for easy-to-run modules [+]

    Nothing overlaps, this much is true, but the argument was that they were evocatice/mood setting so overlapping sections might not be the reason for the map. As for cardinal directions they are of course placed in a way that makes sense to where you placed the map into your world. As the map has...

    OSR Modules with the best layout & presentation

    Like others have said, Necrotic Gnomes adventures (hole in the oak, incandescent grottos) have a very good layout. Also the adventure that comes with the base rules for Mörk Borg is likewise good (funnily, since the rest of that book can be quite a struggle to read. Oh, and not to forget, Into...

    Free League Announces Dragonbane: Trudvang

    Have not played it though I own the rules. It's something of an OSR-adjacent RPG, or maybe an old-school Dragonbane with the serial numbers filed off. Meaning, of course, that it's also something of a BRP game.

    Free League Announces Dragonbane: Trudvang

    That RPG was actually acquired from Riotminds, a swedish publisher, and started of as a setting for a previous incarnation Drakar och Demoner (Dragonbane in english). So this means the setting is back where it started. Edit: Alos, Riotminds released the RPG Ruin Masters that uses a lot of the...
