    Obscure RPGs

    How about Psi World? ( I liked it) Midnight at the Well of Souls? Do Top Secret or James Bond count?

    Urban Shadows RPG

    other plusses I didnt want to put this on the same post as the link, but other things I like about it are: 1. Uses the Apocalypse World engine (love the design of that game!!) 2. Its not being published by Onyx Path, so it probably wont be a year late or have poor communication. 3. Since its...

    Urban Shadows RPG

    Hi Gang, I found a project that reminds me of the old WoD, without all the cross-venue problems. Urban Shadows RPG by Andrew Medeiros — Kickstarter From the KS page Urban Shadows is an urban fantasy roleplaying game where you’ll play characters struggling to survive in a dark urban...

    Itar's Workshop: Dungeon Terrain and Accessories (Great for 2D tiles)

    Exactly. I dont know much about the mold making process, but my friend has some basic molds (perhaps from Hirst?) and he bangs out a lot of floors and walls in a weekend! (and by that I dont mean working as if it were a business, I mean going out to the garage and pouring the molds, then we goof...

    Itar's Workshop: Dungeon Terrain and Accessories (Great for 2D tiles)

    becoming skeptical I know the "Itar" family had some medical issues, but it is frustrating that I only ordered 4 pieces (not 4 sets, literally 4 pieces), and am still waiting on them (apparently they will be the last ones cast). Hopefully we will get them before the DF Cavern sets ship (and...

    Why do you back Kickstarters?

    I tend to back for Patronage, as there are a lot of cool projects out there offering things that I just wouldnt be exposed to otherwise. I think I always consider the value of a project as well. I also like the excitement of seeing a project grow as well as the general camraderie that can...

    Shadows of Esteren Book 1..how goes your game?

    Hi, I dont think that buying Travels is essential for you to start running Shadows of Esteren. Did you know that Book 0 is up for free (100% legit) and it contains 3 adventures (they call them omens). That is surely enough to get you started. Shadows of Esteren - Book 0 Prologue - Agate RPG |...

    D&D 5E D&D Next with R&D - The Lich-Queen's Beloved Part 1

    I was annoyed by Mearls so much that I quit watching after the 10 minute mark. It reminds me of a player in Vampire: The Masquerade who made a Brujah Pizza Delivery Boy who could frenzy if he didnt get a big enough tip. I'm ok with weird concepts, and I play them from time to time, but Mearls...

    An Open Letter to Fantasy Flight and Cubicle 7 -- Cut the "Foreplay" and Give Us the Good Stuff

    I am ok with starting out with Force Sensitive Characters, it makes sense to me that a story about a Force Sensitive should progress. If they are putting out a Jedi book later, great. coming from playing D&D, and then AD&D (all "1st" edition before there were "editions"), if it is not in there...

    How Important is the D&D Brand?

    As far as Brand recognition, D&D is a generic sort of way to give an example of a tabletop Role Playing Game ( so people who dont know right off the bat dont confuse it with Warcraft, Magic: The Gathering, etc. In terms of D&D, 4th Edition was their "St. Anger". I think the ball has been passed...

    An Open Letter to Fantasy Flight and Cubicle 7 -- Cut the "Foreplay" and Give Us the Good Stuff

    I am guessing that the protest of 'Everyone will be a Jedi twink, hence there should be none' probably comes from experiences with bad players or poor GMing. I have found that there are players that are going to try to do that in ANY GAME. "I want my Halfling Paladin to dual wield flaming...

    Psionic Minis

    Hey Gang, Dreamscarred Press has a Psionic Minis Kickstarter going. Although it has 8 more days to go, they will be upping the prices/creating new pledge levels after tonight for levels that include either all the minis from the project (currently for $75 you get 15 plus how everr many can be...

    GMs: How do you soften the blow?

    I guess I am really one who favors the story over the dice/mechanics. To me, there is always an evil spirit, a purely psionic entity, a demon, or a twist in the story that can allow the player to choose avoiding death, but with an unknown price to pay. Clearly you cant do that over and over, but...

    Warriors of Darkmyre Obliteration Edition has Traps for your Dwarven Forge

    I recently got in on that Kickstarter. Warriors of Darkmyre Obliteration Edition by JunkRobot — Kickstarter Initially I was on the fence, ONLY because in the next few weeks I am going to be bombarded with BONES. But then they added the traps. I just got in on the recent Dwarven Forge Tiles...

    Numenera RPG

    I am ok with the 3 types of classes, and to me there seems a lot of variability. The "classes" are just the types, which are augmented by both your descriptor (tough, charming, etc: all of which has crunchy effects) and your Focus (< basically a starting power set that expands as you gain...

    Kickstarter Exalted 3e Kickstarter - 24 hours away

    I think I like the look of the Deluxe better than the Orichalcum version... I'm glad people are excited for it, but honestly the target date should be like May or June 2014 if you look at Onyx Path's track record, plus the added bonus of typos identified but not fixed (based on W20), and that...

    Mummy:the Curse

    @ GogoPartDeux Not lying, and really dont appreciate the insinuation. It was in the White Wolf forum, specifically where someone had leveled some concerns about the V20 Companion and they were being brushed off. Correction: I looked into it and got this response: You V20 Companion post was...
