    D&D General WotC Asks What Makes YOU Play Dungeons and Dragons?

    I put in 52, as well. It asked one more question and then ended.

    D&D (2024) What Improvements Would You Want with 6E?

    Less background textures/colors and slightly larger text in the print books would be a great thing for us old-timers.

    Best system for historical roleplaying?

    I use Call of Cthulhu / Basic Roleplaying for that. Mythras is in the same general family of games.

    How Do You Find Players?

    Have you hit all of the area social media groups in the general region? The last time I went looking for players I put announcements on several local Facebook groups (anything within an hour drive) and Reddit groups.

    How Expensive is Too Expensive?

    Counters, cards, and all the other stuff included in Invisible Sun are not things that I care about. I don't care for board game elements in my roleplaying games. Given that, it isn't worth it to me, even if it was half the price. Other people have their own ways of evaluating such things. I...

    Voting for 2019 ENnies Is Live!

    I don't see anything about that on their website. Where did you hear that?

    Systems You'd Never Play after Reading Them

    I agree. These days I find myself using WEG D6 (or OpenD6) and BRP anytime I don't need to use a specific system. I default to Savage Worlds with the Super Powers supplement for superhero games, and right now I'm running a 5e campaign (because that's what the players wanted), but the types of...

    Systems You Left after One Bad Experience

    Modiphius 2d20 Conan. I absolutely hated it.

    Systems You'd Never Play after Reading Them

    Every PbtA system I have read. The new Unknown Armies (love the old one). The new Kult (love the old one). FATE. Monsterhearts.

    RPG Kickstarter Zine Quest News – The Initial Seven Zines

    Posting for a friend: I have launched a new rpg supplement project as part of Kickstarter's Zine Quest campaign. "Other Magic" takes the spells, rituals, and practices of real world traditional magic system and translates them into rpg-compatible formats. The first issue includes information...

    Staring Directly Into the Invisible Sun -- A Review

    I am interested in the world, adventures, etc., but there is no way I am going to spend that much on a single rpg. It's a pity that they don't offer a less resource intensive version of the game, or at least a "world of" book.

    John Wick Presents Lays Off 7th Sea Staff

    That's why you should hire people on a contract basis for the project. Hiring people and then laying them off isn't necessary.

    John Wick Presents Lays Off 7th Sea Staff

    A safer, more flexible way to do things is to have one or two-person game companies that bring in others as consultants or contractors on a project by project basis.

    Adventures with extensive backstory

    That's one reason that I have always written my own adventures. If I make things up, I can remember them easier. If I were to use a published adventure, though, chances are that I would strip out the backstory and replace it with my own version, using people and place names that I can...

    D&D 3E/3.5 D&D 3.5 - magic item questions

    Thanks for the great answers! Those help a lot. It looks like I was overlooking a couple of key concepts that I need to brush up on. It turns out that a "Wand of Spell Storing Item" is some sort of Eberron thing. From what I have been able to discern since I found that out yesterday, it...

    D&D 3E/3.5 D&D 3.5 - magic item questions

    1) In D&D 3.5 (not Pathfinder), if I had a magic user from a different class make a wand for me, loaded with one of his classes' spells, could I still use it? For example, if I had an artificer make a Wand of Spell Storing Item (lets you store one spell up to 4th level, could I (as a druid)...

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 D&D wildling clasp

    In D&D 3.5 (not Pathfinder), can a wilding clasp be used on a ring, gloves, boots, or other things that go on the hands or feet? I have seen dogs wearing doggy gloves and boots before, and you COULD get a ring on one of their toes (if they put up with it), but I can't find any official...

    D&D 3.5 - Boots of Temporal Acceleration, Metamagic Items, and buffs

    I don't usually play magic users, but in my current campaign I am an 8th level (almost 9th) regular Druid. We're using D&D 3.5 (not Pathfinder). At some point our party is going to have to go up against some sort of very powerful dragon. I am allowed to borrow some magic items from a powerful...

    Mearls On D&D's Design Premises/Goals

    That's true. It wasn't nearly so widespread as it is today, though. These days a lot of new players get their start that way. That's a good point.

    Kickstarter [FGG] Frog God Games announces Bunnies and Burrows 3rd Edition Kickstarter

    I had the pleasure of getting to play a demo game of this with Dr. Sustare at a convention a few months ago. It was a lot of fun, and I was really impressed with the art.
