    Leap into Action with the Modern AGE Basic Rulebook

    So not converting then, just an entirely different modern system?

    My Attempt to Define RPG's - RPG's aren't actually Games

    I don't really see the point in this? The world 'Game' has a wide variety of definitions including 'a competitive activity played according to the rules' to 'an activity one engages into for amusement'. RPGs don't always meet the former definition for example, but neither do co-op board...

    The Expanse RPG Kickstarter Is Live

    I don't see it as offensive just poorly worded. If you prefer crunchy games, FATE isn't going to suit your mindset, which largely comes down to taste not mental ability.

    The Witcher Cover, Art, Info & Q&A Announced!

    Can't help feel that being a Witcher is the point of this game, all over classes sounds completely secondary.

    The Expanse RPG by Green Ronan

    Ah okay, I get it. Blue Rose was originally based on the D20 edition but the new edition is based on AGE.

    The Expanse RPG by Green Ronan

    What he said. Green Ronin have explicitly stated that it will be based on AGE https://greenronin.com/blog/2017/08/17/press-release-green-ronin-to-publish-the-expanse-rpg/ So really not sure where this d20 variant thing is coming from.

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder 2E playtest books are coming!

    Earlier than predicted! I've ordered from a games store, hope their copies aren't embargoed until GenCon Edit: Then again if shipping mid to late July, they probably won't get to the UK before Gencon

    Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay Combat Preview

    I'm confused. Are people getting upset over confirmed rules or rumours? I've re-read what's officially out there and it appears to be the latter. Hear/read a rumour, extrapolate it to mean something they don't like and then get upset over it.

    Pathfinder 2E So I Played Pathfinder 2nd Edition! Plus UKGE Back To #3!

    I got to play in a demo of this as well. Brief history: Played a bit of Pathfinder, attended PaizoCon etc, but moved to D&D 5e when that came out. So, curious about what's happened to Pathfinder I signed up for a demo. And, I really enjoyed it. Combat felt far more fluid than 1e or D&D 5e...

    gaming for a 3 year old

    I'd ignore the naysayers and just give it a go. Amazing tales is light enough to not impose any inhibitive structure on the game. Having tried a game with my son when he was 3.5 years I'd say the following: - Sessions need to be really short, 1/2 hour or so - Don't impose much structure...

    Kazakhstan Has First Ever Tabletop RPG Convention

    Actually it's spans both! (I've worked in Atyrau on the Ural River, there's a sign saying Europe on one side and Asia on the other)

    What levelling up rules do you use?

    Hriston, okay I see you what you are saying but interpret the rules differently from you, otherwise let's say you found 200,000GP you would have enough XP to gain multiple levels, riding roughshod over Gygax's fretting over PCs being able to advance several levels in one go. I think either...

    What levelling up rules do you use?

    So, lets say I'm a Thief at 1237XP and I get given 500XP by the DM. As RAW, my XP goes up to 1251 and stays there until I get trained up to Level 2. So we return to the game next week and I don't find a mentor or don't have GP to level up. At the end of the session the DM awards everyone...

    Modiphius' Star Trek Adventures playtest sign up date announced...

    I'd be tempted to sign up but I doubt I'd get it to the table soon enough to be of use for them. I quite enjoy the 2D20 system so looking forward to see what they do with it.

    What levelling up rules do you use?

    One of the things that marks AD&D1e from many other editions are the following rules (paraphrased from the DMG p86): When you receive another XP to level up, you don't automatically level up. Any XP received above the level threshold is lost until you level up. You need to find someone to...
