    WotC Gale Force 9 Sues WotC [Updated]

    Isn't that just economics though? Gaming is a luxury/non essesntial item - so the people selling it (WOTC and stores) price it as they see appropriate to maximise their revenue based on margin and volume, maximise return on investmnet, and achieve desired market coverage/penetration. D&D is a...

    WotC Gale Force 9 Sues WotC [Updated]

    Really!!!??? Where do you live, and what did you pay? Genuinely interested, and frankly amazed! I'm in the UK - and I will (when I get round to it) pay £30'ish for Tashas (with a loyalty card discount) at a local store, could pay less/at worst same at Amazon as an alternative. For context, here...

    D&D 5E Which three classic settings do you hope for?

    I voted Dark Sun, Dragonlance, Greyhawk. In addition (or instead of) I'd love an updated rethink and rework of, uncoupled from FR, Al Qadim. I'm not holding my breath waiting however.

    D&D 5E Is there even a new D&D setting?

    Maybe a movie? Or a TV boxset? Here's hoping.

    Explore Far Distant Worlds in the Traveller Core Rulebook

    I'm sure publisher, Zozer Games, would much rather you didn't pirate their published materials.

    Here Are 2020's Most Anticipated Tabletop RPGs!

    Is this this years (2020) list or last years (2019)? The last paragraph of the article confuses things somewhat, and the 2019 list provided at the end is the same as the '2020' list above?

    "Age of Worms" Hardcover?

    Nice thread resurrection! I think its fair to say the hardcover for Age of Worms is even further away than it was thirteen years ago. D&D has moved from 3.5 to 5e, and Paizo have been on Pathfinder for the last ten years and are about to launch their own 2e. Odds on Paizo/WOTC collaboration...

    Traveller 5th Edition Reprint Is Kickstarting

    I don't own any of the previous Traveller 5 stuff, and have never read any, but from what I hear (its an over complex, over wordy version of the rules with numerous unwieldy sub-systems) I'd say HELL NO it would be an appalling place to start. I'd recommend either the quick start recommended...

    By posting this kind of response you frankly just make yourself look like a bit of a petty minded self important arse.

    There's An Official ALIEN RPG Coming!

    I think the licence here may just be for the Aliens universe and background - so the extrapolated world of Alien, Aliens, and Alien 3. Not sure the AvP material is going to be officially available, as if it was I'm sure there'd be Predators all over (or at least in some of) the promotional...

    D&D Movie/TV Casting Begins Soon For D&D Movie?

    But a Drizzt cameo has so much potential (I don't like the character - although I have in the past read many of the books, but you can't say he isn't popular! Divisive I'll accept, disliked by some I'd agree, but he is popular by any measure!). His appearance is a plus for those who like the...

    D&D Movie/TV Casting Begins Soon For D&D Movie?

    Baldurs Gate (1): Child of Candlekeep. Female lead (the 'child' exiled from Candlekeep). Vin Diesel as Minsc. Inset 2-4 other favourite BG party members to round out ensemble cast. Cover the first half of BG - leaves space for sequels. Cameo for Drizzt who you meet out in the wilds - potential...
