    TSR TSR Is Back.... Again!

    The money was still in a commercial savings account in 2016. I saw the bank statement. This is after Ernie's hospitalization. Troll Lord Games would not have taken over fulfillment of the KS if there were no funds to do so. That is the reason no one will "white knight" CSIO.

    Jeff Talanian Announces 3rd Edition of Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers of Hyperborea to Kickstart in June

    Here's a brief summary I was able to jot down while talking with Jeff: Here's the summary I was able to make: ASSH to likely be renamed Hyperborea. Simpler name. Easier branding. Tastes great. Less filling ;) The new edition will be split into 2 core books. There will be a new cover and new...

    D&D General DDB's Adam Bradford went to Demiplane

    You don't need to pay in all sessions, just the ones flagged as so. But, I believe you CAN tip the GM, even in unpaid sessions, assuming I read it right. Certainly, something to follow, as the potential is huge.

    WotC Gale Force 9 Sues WotC [Updated]

    I've yet to read the attachments in any detail, but in addition to the licensing agreement, there are also Dungeons & Dragons Localization Guidelines, Hasbro Global Business Ethics Principles, and a Merchandise Licensing Agreement dating as far back as 2005. Some of this is scanned, so a simple...

    Stranger Things Companion Book Features D&D Character Sheets

    I think you are referring to AD&D 1e and not B/X. There is no AC 10 in B/X. AC Starts at AC 9 and goes down from there. Stat bonuses are appropriate for Basic D&D" 13-15 +1, 16 -17 +2, 18 +3 (page B7 - Moldvay Basic Edition - I pulled a copy off my shelf to confirm) In AD&D 1e, Str of 16 is +1...

    "Red Box" Developer Frank Mentzer To Produce Empyrea Setting For D&D

    Eh, things change (from the FB thread) "JG is not involved with production, in part because of the delays in existing projects. (All that is working out nicely, btw, just late.) This is a Loxley product. And I can't risk screwing up my very first ever Kickstarter, y'know? So I'm getting good...

    "Red Box" Developer Frank Mentzer To Produce Empyrea Setting For D&D

    From my conversation with Frank at NTRPG Con in June, Judges Guild is involved in the project. My understanding was they were handling the KS side, but that wasn't very clear. My questions and thoughts were all about the product, not the project. Edit - in retrospect, JG involvement may only...

    The Dilemma of the Simple RPG

    As the person that took the Swords & Wizardry ruleset down to four pages with Swords & Wizardry Light, I have my own perspective on this. For me, I wanted a ruleset that felt like "D&D" to someone who hadn't played an RPG in 20 years while also being a short enough read that a new player would...

    Roll20 Hits 2 Million Users!

    Really, all you need is an unkeyed map for Roll20and then run as if you were on a regular table top, except that instead of mapping you reveal areas with the Fog of War feature and use the built in voice and maybe video (or use a side app for that) Most rulesets even have built in character...

    Call of Cthulhu's Sandy Petersen Sues Paypal Over Withheld Funds [UPDATED]

    and Kickstarter doesn't use Paypal as a payment option. So, I'm assuming this was actually using Backerkit or some such AFTER the KS Campaign has ended.

    Can You Help With Frog God Games' Charles Wright's Medical Expenses?

    The costs involved with Chuck aren't simply the surgery. He's going to need to relocate to be closer to the physical therapy. his adjustment is going to be huge, as initially it was thought he might lose a few toes, instead he lost the leg under the knee. I do believe he is at a VA Hospital...

    Gail Gygax On Memorial Funds & Legal Expenses

    I believe that the Trust goes to Gail's sister. I've heard that from multiple sources verbally that are close enough to this to know. I'll try to track down confirmation that is posted online somewhere.

    Gail Gygax On Memorial Funds & Legal Expenses

    The questions certainly aren't easy ones. As of the end of 2013, the fund (according to their tax return that I was able to obtain) had over $222k in it's account. The questions dealing with the money and how much is needed before they can move forward with the project are legitimate questions...

    Gail Gygax On Memorial Funds & Legal Expenses

    The questions that will be presented to Gail Gygax will deal with the Gygax Memorial Fund and not the surrounding Gygaxian drama. I've had a number of questions submitted by the community to me already via comments on the blog side, G+, Facebook and email as well as other questions that have...
