Star Wars is phantasy.

First off--I didn't read the whole thread...sorry. If I am simply reiterating a view already expressed sorry. It was my impression that the two genres were not separated through imagery but by ideology. Phantasy is a setting where it is believed that the past contains more power than the...

A long term product needs to be innovative, consumable or pre-obsolete in order to maintain high-profit--which can fabricate demand. This is the crux of RPGs.

I don't think I have any 'trademark' character...but I have several favorites. I don't remake characters but I have been known to make cameos and recurring NPCs. Sometimes the recurring NPCs are just for me, meaning the PCs have no idea who the character is and its relevance tome or the...

I think I'm going to buy this book and run a Dark Sun campaign with it.
