    Effects of tariffs on game sales (e.g. US/Canada shipments) (No Politics!)

    Well, that zero sense. More fentanyl is brought into Canada from the US then from Canada to the US. Border security spending is already increase as requested. Looks like if that was a thought it is backfiring as the Conservatives have started to lose support and the Liberals are regaining...

    Effects of tariffs on game sales (e.g. US/Canada shipments) (No Politics!)

    Just when through the list of products that Canada will be putting tariffs on. Can see anything about books but games are a category. The list is extremely long, so I might have missed something: List of products from the United States subject to 25 per cent tariffs effective February 4, 2025...

    The US tariffs appear to be 25% on everything but energy, that will be 10% only. Canada's tariffs are targeted.

    Effects of tariffs on game sales (e.g. US/Canada shipments) (No Politics!)

    A good number of books are in fact printed in Canada by Quebecor. They have printing press in US but my understanding is the one in Quebec are much larger and busier. In fact, there is a lot of time that books are printed in Canada, then shipped to US, only to be shipped back to Canada again...

    "The Worst People You Have Never Met, or, What I Learned During A Four Year Academic Study of Online Harassment In The Dungeons & Dragons Community"

    Same. Reading through the article, the author has a shocking number of people on the record admitting to having made up things against Smith.

    D&D General How to reboot the Forgotten Realms (+)

    Well, that is a rule I have adapted to ever single campaign I have run. No patron deity, no resurrection. Yet to have a player object to that rule. Most have commented on how they like that it adds flavour to the campaign and a reason for their PCs to follow a deity or deities.

    D&D General How to reboot the Forgotten Realms (+)

    I kind of like the Wall of the Faithless. A good reason as why if you do not have patron deity, no resurrection.

    D&D General PETITION: Acknowledge Hasbro's hurtful content (Black orcs, Asian yellow orcs, Native American red orcs)—through an Amendatory Bundle [+ thread]

    That was some mismanagement by TSR. I was working in a bookstore at the time and any novel from TSR flew off the shelves at least the fantasy ones. The Buck Rogers line just rotted on the bookshelves. A good line of Mystara novels could generated another successful revenue stream. Very sad.

    D&D General PETITION: Acknowledge Hasbro's hurtful content (Black orcs, Asian yellow orcs, Native American red orcs)—through an Amendatory Bundle [+ thread]

    It was my understanding that he had ask about licencing or purchasing Mystara some point before the Guild existed. Hasbro was not about to sell off any D&D IP and were not interested in licencing. Thought the sales of AD&D 2nd ed books were poor which led to them discontinued and the end the...

    D&D 5E WotC: Why Dark Sun Hasn't Been Revived

    Hasbro does not and will likely never sell off an IP that they own. They have a track record of seating on IP for years.

    Release [Chaosium] Call of Cthulhu Supplement Nameless Horrors To Release Worldwide March 8th

    Any idea if the Fantasy Grounds version will be updated? Here is hoping Chaosium finds a new Canadian warehouse soon. I have a backlog of orders since last year to place.

    D&D 5E WotC: Why Dark Sun Hasn't Been Revived

    It is quite easy to understand why WotC would not want to touch Dark Sun. It has not been much of a secret, why. Paizo, over a year, come under fire due to their use of slavery in their work and have chosen to walk away from the subject matter. Controversially, Paizo won't mention slavery in...

    D&D 5E Online RPG Tools Platform Demiplane Announces '5E Nexus'

    It is a lot of little things. Hard to give you a nice clear list, but I have been following since they first open before the Nexus and they just have failed to really interest me.

    D&D 5E Online RPG Tools Platform Demiplane Announces '5E Nexus'

    Demiplane has completely failed to impress me so far. Doubt they will make something to change that impression.
