    Paizo New Releases and Subscriptions

    I always used to pick up the pocket editions of the Paizo books I carried to games, but eyestrain font is now much more of a thing with me so I've backed off doing that which makes me sad. I really liked the size and weight of the pocket editions. Getting old is a drag.

    Compare The Market's Tabletop Gaming Survey

    Warhammer was in their overall top 10 and in some of the country top 5s. I count myself in that category. I keep telling myself to cut back, but then there is something new that looks really interesting and it gets added to the collection of things I will never have the time to actually play.

    Compare The Market's Tabletop Gaming Survey

    I know this was in jest, but I couldn't find the full list of 40 games that were given for this question. Participants were supposed to choose from a supplied list. It's not wrong, but it has to be recognized for what it is. It's a survey question based on a specific list of options.

    Pathfinder Announces New Lost Omens Book, Plus Remastered Version of Treasure Vault

    According to the initial posting for this book by Paizo on January 5th "Product images and descriptions are not final and are subject to change". The book is out in June so it's possible this dragon image won't be used.

    Pathfinder Announces New Lost Omens Book, Plus Remastered Version of Treasure Vault

    I think you are right that the art director missed this. They probably asked for a diabolic and didn't look closely at what was delivered.

    Worlds of Design: Why Buy Adventures?

    This all reminds me of one game I was in as a player in where the DM was running a published module and he didn't adjust the rewards to match the party. He never seemed to understand that the reason we avoided some of the in game plot hooks was because the rewards were of no interest to any of...

    The link for Owlbear Academy in the original article isn't correct.

    D&D 5E Why I think gold should have less uses in 5e, not more.

    Regarding the impact on training from the differences in wealth rewards from 2E adventures, I do not think this was as much a factor as you are making it out to be. There was a long period of time between 1E and 2E. During that period there were no second edition adventures available,. Most of...

    Doppel Is A Physical Digital Miniature!

    It will look like an oversized pawn. If they can get the size down some I think it will work okay on a table where the other "minis" are regular pawns.

    ICv2 Reports Disappointing Year For Hobby Games Channel: TTRPGs Down, D&D Declines 30%

    I have never seen Magic at a grocery or drug store, but it never occurred to me to look for it there. I will have to see what is tucked away in their small book area.

    Doppel Is A Physical Digital Miniature!

    It's funded this time around. It looks like the equivalent of a digital pawn (with sound). If I played with pawns I might see using this, but using miniatures at my table, I don't think I would be interested, certainly not at the current price.

    D&D (2024) Here's The New 2024 Player's Handbook Wizard Art

    That's an interesting mix of artists. I wouldn't normally put Otus in there with some of the others. While I like your list of artists and I feel that the peak of D&D art occured in 2E times, I really do like this new wizard art. She definitely looks wizardly to me. I wouldn't think that...
