    D&D 5E SHORT conversion document up and monsters by type

    I ike the conversion document but I guess i'll a redux of it on an index card to be able to refer quickly. For the nostalgics of previous editons I suggest check theses resources and think how unwieldly they were... Basic D&D to AD&D 2E AD&D 2E to D&D 3.0 conversion booklet D&D 3.0 to D&D 3.5...

    Here Come The PRESTIGE CLASSES! Plus Rune Magic!

    The main risks with multi-classing is core class "efficiency" dilution and making a "dip" too interesting. They tried to address the latter by spreading the core abilities between the early levels and tying ability score increase to class progression rather than character progression. But the...

    Here Come The PRESTIGE CLASSES! Plus Rune Magic!

    I'm not fond of either the Rune Caster as a PrC or the execution of the PrC rules. The whole thing makes giving out Runes as Magic Items a sort of mandatory thing which I feel constraining. Also making (again !) a substitute for a "regular" Class progression is a poor choice, especially when...

    Fantasy Flight Games Acquires LEGEND OF THE FIVE RINGS

    To be honest I hope FFG will keep the mechanics from the RPG. When the game was first released the setting was accessible but in the last 20 years so much lore and details were added that it made it impossible to just "discover" it. One of the first change they could do is to take a step back...

    Fantasy Flight Games Acquires LEGEND OF THE FIVE RINGS

    Well now I'm curious about this. I must admit that I lost interest in the storyline sometime during the Hidden Emperor arc and mostly played and GM'ed 1st edition RPG. My feeling is that over time the game suffered from an overtly complicated metaplot that was hard to follow if not playing the...

    You can check this site: http://ulisses-us.com/ There is nothing on it now but I guess it will have news once they'll start preparing for the KS in early 2016.

    Torg Eternity Coming in 2016

    I guess not since it is annouced as a color hardcover. Now if they run a Kickstarter and have it as bonus from Q-Workshop...

    Fantasy AGE Core Rulebook

    4 out of 5 rating for Fantasy AGE Core Rulebook The game system is great but the class progression get boring from level 11 onward. While I like the concept of the backgrounds I think that I preferred how Dragon Age combined Races and Cultural origin. I'm also not impressed by the "new" magic...

    Torg Eternity Coming in 2016

    I was waiting for this since 1995 ! I hope that the revision will go beyond the streamlining of the rules. One of the issue of the original game was that there was no way for the Storm Knights to win the war. To truly go into the epic of changing permanently the course of the war was quite...

    The Storm Has a Name...

    No this is clearly about Torg. The D20 dices are "eternity shards" from the old WEG boxed set and the quote is from that game too. BTW Warlord had its RPG back in the day of 3.5 D&D.

    The Storm Has a Name...

    So Torg will finally return ? I hope it will be more fulfilling than WEG last attempt with the R&E edition ^_^

    FANTASY AGE Can Now Be YOURS!

    I like DA set 1 and most of set 2. But Set 3 was a disappointment mechanically wise. I was also a bit disappointed by the "new" magic system as I expected something more flexible with the mage being able to learn spells outside of class progression. And while I like the backgrounds concept I...

    PRINCES OF THE APOCALYPSE For Fantasy Grounds VTT

    Is it possible to use FG just as a GM virtual assistant (virtual adventure with notes and monsters, maps with fog, etc) but without the player having to use the vtt too ?

    D&D 5E DMG Excerpt: Creating a New Race

    BTW isn't the illustration of the Eladrin Albanon the wizard from the Nentir Vale campaign setting ? Maybe it's a clue that NErath may come back in form or another ;-)

    D&D 5E GaleForce 9 Preview Video

    The DM screen is less awesome than I would have expected. With all the gorgeous art, they chose the certainly the most ugly one (the white dragon scene) :-( I also wonder if they will release one DM screen per book since the content looks geared toward the Hoard of the Dragon Queen module (2...

    D&D 5E WotC will not allow translation of D&D NEXT.

    I guess that depending of the country and partner translation can be more or less of a success. If WotC decide to move translation in-house we may have a more steadier flow of released products. On the other hand the TTRPG market is nowhere near the wargaming (with GW tranlation of WH and...
