    Players 'distressed' by gang-rape role-playing game

    Man is placed on sex offenders register and will be excluded from all sorts of stuff as a result if they demand a DBS check. It's a pretty lousy analogy.

    Systems You Left after One Bad Experience

    Symbaroum's system was a bit of a dissapointment. There are trad systems with lots of moving parts , or more indie systems that simplify and do some clever stuff. This felt like an untested Trad system in draft with lots of missing parts. It was quite easy to build characters that could be...

    Players 'distressed' by gang-rape role-playing game

    I think what happened with that was the following: 1. Twitter describes incident in a Tales from the Flood game, not naming GM. 2. UK Expo bans GM, but doesn't name him, and then in the background deletes all his games off the system. 3. People go on the UKGE website, search the Tales from...

    RPGNow Is Being Retired

    Glad they're closing the site that is blocked by my works' DNS and not Drivethrurpg which works for some reason.

    The New Savage Worlds Is Storming Kickstarter

    Tempted but $75 for a core book including postage is on the steep side. Shame they couldn't line up any decent international fulfillment arrangements.

    WOIN Rules for Corruption

    Doing more digging, I think the optional Resolve rules would work really well for this.

    WOIN Rules for Corruption

    I initially missed that, it exists but it doesn't quite fit the purpose for the setting. I think the track minus the Light is a good way of tracking more permanent points, however I'm after something more temporary. Something that can be used as a resource that you risk permanent corruption by...

    WOIN Rules for Corruption

    Hi, I'm in the process of molding WOIN OLD to use for Symbaroum (like the setting, but not it's system). Most of it is easy to adapt with no work needed, but there's one element that's trickier. That is Corruption. Using magic, or being exposed to certain artifacts or areas can cause you to...

    WOIN Some quick questions

    Hi, just have a few quick questions wanted for clarifications after reading OLD. 1. Range. What's the units? I'm assuming it's in grid squares? 2. How do you identify what weapons are meant to be used 2-handed or 1-handed? Is it just creative licence? 3. Luck. Do you add luck dice before...

    Welcome to The Witcher RPG

    I was initially intrigued by the Witcher RPG, but a visit to the publishers website and then a flick through the book dampened my excitement somewhat. I get the distinct feeling this hasn't been shown much love. Back when it was released at GenCon there was very limited information on the...

    Judge Dredd & The Worlds of 2000 AD Tabletop RPG Kickstarter Coming Next Month!

    From a recent podcast, Morrus said the team were given an unlimited account by Rebellion to scour through all the back history of comments, if they found any art they wanted to include, they contacted Rebellion for a copy of the original sans speech bubbles to be included in the RPG - so yes as...

    Burning Questions: What's the Worst Thing a DM Can Do?

    I think we may be talking at cross purposes. By fudging I mean the DM rolling the dice then pretending a different result was rolled.

    Burning Questions: What's the Worst Thing a DM Can Do?

    Some DM's fudge dice rolls, right or wrong is a different argument, however the DM letting it become apparent that they are fudging dice rolls is the worse thing!

    Rolling Hit and Damage dice together.

    We regularly roll the damage die with the 'to hit' dice to save time, but the result of the damage dice has no bearing on whether the character has hit or not. Saves time. Kind of annoying when you roll max damage on a miss, but can be used for narration purposes.

    Acquiring books (but not reading them)?

    Yeah.. standard :D Most are bought with good intentions - I will buy this, then read it, then use it. But only just over half get read, and a much smaller proportion actually get read. Then there are those books where I buy because I like the line of books they're in but don't need them yet...

    Congratulations to 2018's ENnie Award Winners!

    Entirely feasible - we largely operate in echo chambers.

    Congratulations to 2018's ENnie Award Winners!

    Congratulations to all the winners. There is however one product that stands out from the rest and makes me scratch my chin. Zweihander, best game? Better than Blades in the Dark, Delta Green, and Red Markets? Ditto for best product. I own all of those products, all of which are good...
