    [UPDATED] Looking At Savage Worlds Rifts

    Just read the latest update. Does anyone understand what it means for EU shipping? It says it is EU friendly and can save people money but I can't see what has changed. Still not wanting to pay $70 shipping for $85 of books.

    New Gothic D&D Storyline To Be Announced On Monday

    Hasn't there been a Realms/Ravenloft crossover before? I'm sure that they could come up with something fairly easy. Town x in Realms is suddenly shrouded in mist. The PCs need to go an investigate. Maybe the mists and the Dark Lords are trying to expand their influence and take over the realms...

    Pathfinder Online Layoffs; Ryan Dancey Leaves Company

    Really bad news about the lay offs. However, I also have to say that I tried this game. I can't recall ever deciding to not like a game so fast, and I was really hoping for something different and good. I find it hard for anyone to honestly think that the game really is any good. If you play...

    Playbook (for PRD)

    2 out of 5 rating for Playbook (for PRD) The initial iOS release still feels slightly unfinished. It feels clunky and can take some time to navigate. Not really intuitive and definitely not ready to be a revolution in how you game at the table. Choosing Pathfinder only means you have...

    Catching Up With PATHFINDER ONLINE

    Signed up for the 15 day free trial. Loaded it up twice. Both times didn't manage more than 10 minutes before I decided it was simply terrible. I know it's a beta and is being described as minimum viable product, but I'm confused; imagine what a car would look like as a minimum viable product -...

    This is good news. Really like Edge of the Empire, not so interested in Age of Rebellion, but looking forward to Force and Destiny.

    D&D 5E DMG - breaking bounded accuracy already?

    Despite finding 2 books, our fighter died against a purple dragon! On a more sensible note: we have been in the depths of castle greyhawk and we have found some classic gear and a few cursed items. Our DM has been running campaigns in his Greyhawk for many years and we are now enjoying his...

    D&D 5E DMG - breaking bounded accuracy already?

    Our DM has just given 2 books out! One for the fighter (who has one level of rogue) and is Dex focused, a manual of quickness. And for the wizard, a tome of clear thought. We are currently level 4.

    What Happens If CODENAME: MORNINGSTAR Doesn't Fund?

    I agree with some many comments and I'm not wanting to simply repeat them all. For me the initial goal was too big. It does sound like a great concept and I could see me using it, but I would much preferred a lower initial goal with great stretch goals.

    Numenera Core Rulebook

    5 out of 5 rating for Numenera Core Rulebook Having played D&D (including Pathfinder more recently) for many years and always struggled with the freedom of narrative vs. rules, Numenera and the Cypher System was a welcomed change. It can take a bit of getting used to the new found freedom but...

    The Strange Corebook

    4 out of 5 rating for The Strange Corebook Numenera presented a good system. Now MCG gives you an alternative setting. The system works well and has been adapted effectively. The one negative I would mention is there is a lot of similarity in the text with the previous Cypher System book.
