    PF2E POLL

    I don't like how the book is organised and I am struggling to get a grasp of the system, so much jumping back and forth. An SRD online will help! But that's mostly because it's very technical, I think once I've got a handle on it I might like it. But I need to play before I'll give judgement...

    Pathfinder 2 - Spell Potentness, or lack there-off

    I think a big part of the balance to stop LFQW in PF2 is nerfing the spells. Most people seem to be concentrating on but Ftrs only get feats, but almost all spells are a shadow of their PF1 selves. Sleep doesn't work in combat, really. Fly is very short duration. Charm is well and truly nerfed...

    Pathfinder 2E The playtest is here!!

    One more month, minimum here in NZ, for me! "When Paizo was planning this year's Pathfinder Playtest, we expected to exceed our own ability to fulfill orders on a timely basis, so we decided to use Fulfillment by Amazon. Unfortunately, Amazon's reports indicate that most customers will not be...

    Warhammer FRPG 4th Ed PDF Pre-Order Goes Live on DriveThruRPG!

    It's very old school, I'm just creating a Viking character for Runequest 3, there is maths and stuff OMG! But once you are actually doing it, it's not complex. But explaining, or theory crafting with a white room, is tricky. Best to just make a PC or two, then it's on your sheet rather than in...

    Warhammer FRPG 4th Ed PDF Pre-Order Goes Live on DriveThruRPG!

    I like the random vs XP, I think I first saw it in Hackmaster, but I guess it's been around as an idea. I think you can complete your first career level by accepting the rolls, need another 25 XP to move to the next.

    Warhammer FRPG 4th Ed PDF Pre-Order Goes Live on DriveThruRPG!

    Yeah if you get the 'pre-order' PDF now from RPGNow, it is downloadable immediately, but it is not the finalised PDF. If you purchase hardcopy from C7 site, you get a link for the the PDF on RPGNow. They're collecting errata and stuff first, which I always like. 100 fans much better than 1 or 2...

    Get Ready To Pre-Order Warhammer Fantasy Roleplaying Fourth Edition!

    Some of the jokes in it are 'funny as, bro'. The art is amazing, this is one beautiful book, and so evocative. I'm really enjoying the official tourist blurb of each region, which is accompanied by the actual view of a citizen /denizen! The game seems very crunchy, it'll take a bit too get my...

    What is your reaction to the Eberron news?

    I'm neutral, it's a good seeing and I really like how they have done the dragonmarks. But, promised a setting for the hardcore (or at least that is how I read it), I was hoping for a classic setting. I also think two high magic tech seeing at once it's too much, cos they're not my thing. But it...

    Get Ready To Pre-Order Warhammer Fantasy Roleplaying Fourth Edition!

    Well the pre order PDF is available. So can I finish it before the Pathfinder 2 playtest is out on the 2nd? Oh I also need to re read Runequest 3 and the Vikings supplement in that time for a game starting Thursday.... I need to not work, is really interfering with my gaming!

    What's the gender mix at your table?

    I've been gaming since late 70s and sadly only had 2 female gamers in that time. I dragged my wife in to add numbers with a couple of my sons (we have 4 boys, two weren't old enough at the time), not her ting and it didn't last long. Also had a short lived (DM quit) online game with a friend and...

    Get Ready To Pre-Order Warhammer Fantasy Roleplaying Fourth Edition!

    The PDF should be out in a week, preview version, and they'll take errata etc from the public before it get's sent to the printer - something I really like. 100 fans are better than any proof reader IME.

    What is your reaction to the Ravnica news?

    I'm neutral, it looks like an interesting setting, but more like shadow run with its corporations by another name and Magic tech which is not my thing. But a thought we'd get a classic setting from the hardcore being happy comment, and we haven't at all.

    Ravnica: Is This The New D&D Setting? [UPDATED & CONFIRMED!]

    Does anyone know what's in the map pack? Fairly slim on the product info, just card tactical battlemaps?

    Ravnica: Is This The New D&D Setting? [UPDATED & CONFIRMED!]

    Yeah unarguably best art is hyperbole, I don't like it. Techno lightning lady in a portrait, anything with an actual party and/or something happening is better

    So is that it? (re: the setting announcements)

    It is also integrated into DnD Beyobd, so can be easily used with OC generation etc. As a PC Gamer I don't have a problem buying into an alpha, getting updates, and having a say in the final thing. I won't buy the PDF because there is no way for you to get the price back if/when the PoD comes...

    Eberron It Is? [UPDATED & CONFIRMED!]

    And the appropriate bit from the intro: "Bear in mind: this book presents my vision of Eberron. This is the world I run at my own table, and the way that I’ve converted its ideas to the fifth edition rules. All of the material here is presented for playtesting and to spark your imagination. The...

    Eberron It Is? [UPDATED & CONFIRMED!]

    I hope the other setting book in this years release, in addition to Ravenica, is not Eberron - they appear pretty similar in their techno backgrounds. Still it's better than more FR for variety, but I would certainly prefer a classic DnD setting. What I've read today on Ravenica has a lot of...

    Ravnica: Is This The New D&D Setting? [UPDATED & CONFIRMED!]

    Not my style, so this'll be the first thing I'm not pre-ordering but awaiting reviews. I'm not big into DnD as Shadowrun, which is what this seems to be. Hopefully it's good enough to draw old grumpy peeps like me in!
