    Brandon Sanderson's Stormlight Archive TTRPG Makes $1M In Under An Hour

    I went through the beta rules and starter adventure and it seems pretty good. A mix of 5e (base mechanics), SotDL (paths and fast/slow turns), and Genesys (plot die). I really want to playtest it, but none of my friends have read The Stormlight Archive, and the setting is way too alien and...

    D&D 5E D&D's Classic Settings Are Not 'One Shots'

    If you're an Eberron fan or just generally interested in running the setting, Keith Baker released quite a few sourcebooks in addition to the Rising from the Last War - Exploring Eberron and Chronicles of Eberron, as well as a dozen of adventures and campaigns. There is no reason to wait for...

    Dragonlance DRAGONLANCE is coming this year!

    It looks more mature and gritty than FR and Eberror, let alone Critical Role and MTG settings.

    Blog (A5E) Level Up: Now on FOUNDRY VTT!

    I love how the character sheet looks – so clean and much better designed than DnD5 one. Great work, @PhilBest Incompatibility with 5e is not a big deal since I find Midi QOL and other modules to be overkill with its complexity and full automation. But the lack of content modules hurts... Can't...

    Level Up (A5E) Level Up in 2022

    Can't wait for Foundry VTT character sheet, so I can actually play it :) Also I would buy premium VTT conversions if those were available (and no doubt many other people would too).

    Roll20's Latest Numbers: Cthulhu Holding Strong!

    Foundry VTT is a way to go for PF2 games. It has much more automation + good UI + completely free SRD of every single PF2 supplement and adventure with pre-made tokens (creatures), items, spells, etc.

    The Gaia Project just launched its Kickstarter. Shep is an SLA Industries / Terminator writer so you can expect some really grim cyberpunk. The Gaia Complex - A Game of Flesh and Wires

    "Runner resource book" with no options for runners and 160 pages of lore fluff for gamemaster. Catalyst in nutshell.

    D&D 5E What would happen if we got rid of opportunity attacks

    I like how an attack of opportunity is a class feature in the PF2. Very few monsters have it, and only a few martial player classes have access to it. It makes combat more fluid (especially if you use grid).

    Ah, totally forgot it's a user-nominated list. Sorry :oops:

    [VOTING IS OVER!] Vote For The Most Anticipated RPG of 2021!

    #1 SLA Industrie 2e s is the most anticipated game for me. Great rules, unique, bizarre setting, cool art. It has everything my players and me love: tactical combat without minis, mission-based structure, diverse alien/mutant characters, and a crazy splatterpunk world. #2 King Arthur Pendragon...

    Rivers of London RPG: An Interview

    Pendragon, including the new upcoming 6th edition, uses a custom ruleset (not BRP) and it's actually good. You may check a free quickstart/adventure on Chaosium website.

    Rivers of London RPG: An Interview

    The later. It's urban fantasy in an alternative world like Dresden Files, Lockwood & Co, Liminal, Fables etc

    Rivers of London RPG: An Interview

    "BRP" and "Fast and simple" cannot be used in the same sentence. I'm still salty after The Design Mechanism ruined Lyonesse RPG with an extremely crunchy Mythras system (BRP derivative). And new BRP-based RuneQuest is almost a meme at this point with 4 pages of mounted combat rules.

    There's a TERMINATOR RPG Coming!

    That's cool. SLA Industries 2e is very good (mechanics, lore, art). Nightfall team is very talented.
