    The value of manned space flight?

    Up to a point. Go into space in general? Yes. Plenty to learn and accomplish that ahs direct benefits here for us back on Earth. Pushing at this time for colonizing other worlds? Pure arrogance. We can't even successfully live on the planet we come from. Spending billions to allow a handful of...

    What RPG(s) did you stick with an earlier edition?

    So I have yet to update to the latest edition of Paranoia, as I had gone in strongly on the previous, card based offering from Mongoose. My motivation is mostly that I don't get to run it often.

    D&D 5E (2024) New Campaign: Should I make the switch to 5.5? (SOLVED)

    It comes down to if you want to keep getting new materials WotC will release and that most 3rd party sources will release going forward. If you do, then yes.

    Pumpkin Spice Joins the Million Dollar Crowdfunder Club

    Super curious as to the methodology for the media blitz on this one as it was clearly effective. It's existing genres that right now have good cache in many gaming spaces but isnt directly an existing IP.

    D&D General "True Neutral": Bunk or Hogwash

    More of what I mean is, do we ever get "If there is too much "Good" it will cause multiversal calamity." as an actual in the game belief or mechanical truth or is it simply the case that we the audience assume that must be the case?

    D&D General "True Neutral": Bunk or Hogwash

    So I guess my question to the hardcore D&D loreheads is, "Is this actually demonstrated anywhere?"
