    Skysurfers! A New Preview of Judge Dredd & The Worlds of 2000AD!

    I figured that was what the writer was going for. I was trying for the tone of a somewhat light of heart chiding, in my mind it was an instructor talking to some pre-cadet wannabes, but I guess I failed on that skill roll. Also, it was intended to be a reminder or heads up to those unfortunate...

    Skysurfers! A New Preview of Judge Dredd & The Worlds of 2000AD!

    Unless 2000 AD has changed dramatically since the last time I got a copy of it, the judges DO take prisoners. In fact, it is their preferred option when ever possible. Even when it comes to illegal skysurfing they don't want to shoot them down, unless it would prevent a worse and impending...

    Can You Be A Good Dog? Play Pugmire And Find Out

    I already fetched this one, and hopefully I'm not barking up the wrong tree, but this is one bone you'll want to dig up and enjoy. I just had to go for the dog puns, but it really does look like a good game. Haven't gotten to play it yet though, we're currently in a different game/campaign.

    D&D Reader App Coming This Fall? [UPDATED]

    If it's successful, and they get enough requests for it, I wouldn't be surprised. Of course the company has done some pretty boneheaded moves before when it comes to anything electronic, so who knows. All in all, I'd like it on the PC, at a reasonable price, but that might be years, so if you...

    D&D Reader App Coming This Fall? [UPDATED]

    Haven't heard anything in that mentioned about adding functionality, but as you don't share your own personal copy with anyone, I did mention that, I'd guess it's a moot point. After all, adding bookmarks or hyperlinks in it would be like writing notes, putting in page markers, and postit...

    D&D Reader App Coming This Fall? [UPDATED]

    Thanks lowkey13, but the articles I saw said specifically "media shifting" as they were talking about changing it from one form of media to another. After all, format shifting would included various different file types, and I suspect pull in some other meanings that lawyers like to use. I'm...

    D&D Reader App Coming This Fall? [UPDATED]

    IOS or Android app for essentially pdfs/ebooks of the physical books we already have for the price that's close to being the same as the actual hardcover books! Oh, and you can buy the parts of the book piecemeal. No discount for current book owners either. The only thing good I see about...

    A "Bright" Future for a Shadowy Game

    Right forum, and that's fine. I found SR5th disappointing, but I figured that was just me. I started hitting some forums a few months back, and the comments I saw were overwhelmingly negative. Maybe that's just the opinions of a bunch of grognards, but it's still just opinions. If you like it...

    EN Publishing: EN5ider, TRAILseeker, & WOIN Updates!

    I too like the catalogue, but I've already spotted a few issues I hope are taken care of soon. First isn't a bug or typo, it's just a style bit, for me the pictures/links in each section are just too bloody large! It feels like I'm perusing a computer monitor formatted page on a phone screen...

    A "Bright" Future for a Shadowy Game

    Editions As it seems most people think 5th edition is the worst one ever made by far, perhaps a better edition would actually be a good thing and pull Shadowrun out of the hole they dug with 5th.

    UA: New Race Options, Eladrin and Gith

    The Eladrin seasonal trait/flaw table seems like a pain in the assimar and a way to just cause conflict in the party.

    (KS) Iron Sky: The Roleplaying Game

    The movie was a bit of a letdown for me. But not so much I won't watch their next movie or look into trying the game.

    Starfinder Starfinder Preview Looks At The Mystic Class

    The blindsense of the shirrin seems to do very little other than allow them to ignore visual mods for being unseen when making the old "I know you're there" check. I guess it's a very non-specific sense that at best allows you to know which square/hex something is that you can't see, but that's...

    News Digest: Free RPG Day, Modiphius Updates Star Trek Adventures Pre-Order, HyperRPG Banned from Tw

    Don't forget that they apparently had used a lot of rumors and paranoid worst case guessing. No idea if they still do, but their accuracy was far less than desirable. I had to personally explain to an FBI agent back in the 90s that Inkjet & Laser Printers don't have unique fonts, they use...

    Fantasy Money Card Deck

    I haven't tried to translate it, but you can see that the runes on top of the gold coin cards is partly different than on the silver coin cards, so they probably translate to something.

    Tales From The Yawning Portal - 7 Classic Dungeons Updated To 5E!

    I'm really glad it's got Tomb of Horrors in it. That might even bump up sales when Ready Player One comes out, if it comes out. You know how hollywood will drop projects at any point if they feel like it. Unless of course the movie drops those chapters or totally glosses them over.

    Most Anticipated RPG of 2017: The Official Poll!

    Ooh... didn't see V&V3 when I voted. Though I'm not currently seeing any results either, of course they are hidden, so no surprise there. I'm guessing that at some point we'll be told the results, I hope. :)

    News Digest: Star Trek Playtest Open, Official My Little Pony RPG, No Man's Sky Investigation, Steve

    Actually it almost wiped out the company and put ALL their projects way behind schedule. Don't forget the FBI not only ate their donuts, and broke open their filing cabinets despite the people with the keys standing right there, but they took all their computers, along with a lot of other...

    Flying Buffalo's Legacy - Part 2: Tunnels & Trolls

    T&T only uses d6. Ranged and Magic combat work directly, even if your side looses the battle if I remember correctly. Melee weapons don't do damage directly, rather they are part of your combat total. You also have attributes to determine your personal combat adds. It's all pretty simple...

    Flying Buffalo's Legacy - Part 2: Tunnels & Trolls

    I can't speak for others, but I know that where I was we started using Game Master when we started playing non-fantasy games. Somehow when you're flying around on space ships, or playing the part of a super hero, secret agent, or other non-fantasy type using the term DUNGEON Master just seemed...
