    Social Conflict In Space - STARGUILD Is Space Opera Noir

    Thanks Scott! I ought to mention that the basic 'diplomats on a space station' is one of the adventures which I have included in the rules. It doesn't have the trading resources element which I included in the convention game, and has the principle characters stated up as NPCs in this occasion...

    Exception-based monster abilities?

    I was completely put off it by 4th edition D&D, where it seemed like an excuse for lazy design. When four different monsters had four different ways of handling the same thing (pin with a spear iirc) it just drove me up the wall. I don't have any problem with some creatures having unique...

    Social Conflict In Space - STARGUILD Is Space Opera Noir

    I'd like to make a point about the NPC page which we have in the examples up above. NPCs can be scaled very quickly to a level appropriate for the circumstances where you want to use them. The basic values which you see on the page are for novice (level 0) NPCs. Level 2 is experienced, level 4...

    Thanks echohawk - I'll make sure the player responsible hears about that! I was playing in the game rather than running it when that scene took place and it was breathtakingly intense! Cheers

    Advice for a Old West game system

    Although it might not be quite what you are looking for, Dogs in the Vineyard is an interesting take on wild west roleplaying - especially with the ability to choose how to escalate conflict. http://theunstore.com/index.php/unstore/game/1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogs_in_the_Vineyard

    D&D 5E Kender as an appropriate race

    I'm curious - some of the discussion talks about 'kender fearlessness' as though it is rampant stupidity of the "I'll jump into the dragons fiery mouth" variety. Is that part of the actual write up? It's just that I could see fearlessness working hand in hand with being able to weigh up what is...

    D&D 3E/3.5 5E's Initial Raw Sales Numbers Stronger Than 3E's!

    It seems that the initial sales of D&D 5th Edition are very strong. Asked about how they compare to 3E and 4E, WotC's Mike Mearls says that "Raw numbers are stronger, but that's not the complete picture. end of year 1 is the key." The Player's Handbook has now topped the hardcover nonfiction...
