    How Will The New Tariffs Affect TTRPG Prices?

    I mostly lurk, and only very occasionally post when it's something I am either interested in or knowledgeable about. Been mostly playing Call of Cthulhu for the last couple of years, but recently started D&D again, so been reading a few threads here. Good to see you too 👍

    How Will The New Tariffs Affect TTRPG Prices?

    VAT is a sales tax, payable on certain goods and services, no matter their origin. It's nothing like a tariff, which is based on origin.

    I AM KING OF THE WORLD! Ranking James Cameron's Films

    They were absolutely painful to watch when True Lies was released at the cinema in 1994. I remember well watching it with my girlfriend at the time - we were regular cinema-goers and big fans of Cameron's work. I've rewatched The Terminator, Aliens, T2, and The Abyss multiple times over the...

    Eric Noah's 3rd Edition Website

    I hadn't played D&D for a while (preferring the likes of Runequest, Cyberpunk 2020, Hero and other games with more "modern" feeling rulesets), when I stumbled across this site and saw rumours of a new version of D&D (3e) that looked much closer to my rules preferences. I think I posted 1 scoop...

    I AM KING OF THE WORLD! Ranking James Cameron's Films

    Similar for me, too. 1. Aliens 2. The Terminator 3. T2 4. The Abyss 5. Avatar I was terribly disappointed with True Lies when it came out (based on expectations of Cameron and Paxton). I loved the "boring" middle bit of Avatar2, but found the "exciting" ending battle quite boring. I quite...

    How Dragonbane Pointed out the Clashing Desires of My Gaming Group

    Sadly, this does not sound like the kind of issue that will be resolved on a RPG forum.

    D&D (2024) Counting the minutes to get the PHB 2024...

    In our group there isn't much interest in moving to D&D2024 rules, so I'm waiting to be gifted a PHB in October for my birthday. I'm enjoying watching the Dungeon Dudes YT videos about the changes, but I'm not as stoked as I was for the 3e or 5e releases. I'm pleased to see that a lot of...

    WotC Greg Tito On Leaving WotC: 'It feels good to do something that doesn't just line the pockets of *****'

    I don't think so - my reading of the posts here is that many are surprised, but no-one is offended.

    Space: 1999 Coming From Modiphius

    I guess that Modiphius already know all that, since they published a Star Trek RPG 7 years ago, and are launching its second edition this Gencon.

    Space: 1999 Coming From Modiphius

    That episode gave me nightmares as a kid!

    Space: 1999 Coming From Modiphius

    Modiphius did a Thunderbirds boardgame kickstarter a few years ago, so they will already have had experience negotiating a gaming license with the Gerry Anderson estate.

    Space: 1999 Coming From Modiphius

    It's called that, because it's the Gerry Anderson shop website that's been around for years. I got this from them a couple of Christmases ago: Space: 1999 Moonbase Alpha Technical Operations Manual
