    What is an elegant system?

    IMHO, I don't believe the definition of "elegant" is debatable. I stick to my one sentence definition above. You may think Pathfinder is a good, fun system....as do I, but I don't think its particularly elegant.

    What is an elegant system?

    An elegant system is one that satisfies your requirements with the least amount of complexity.

    FLGS Research

    The Coolstuffinc Brick and Mortar uses their a few PC's with their webstore at the checkout area. You can order all your stuff there (or at home online) and mark it pick up. Then you tell them your order number and they go in the back and bring it out. Its pretty nice, particularly if they have...

    FLGS Research

    The only FLGS that I know that succeed, are ones that were a digital storefront first...and who's brick and mortar storefront is largely funded by the web sales.

    The Shackled City - Golarion Prelude

    The enchantments in the room are laid bare before your second sight. Each tree, animal, and blade of crash in the room is a lovingly crafted illusion. The artistry involved in creating such an accurate representation is immense. You detect the craftsmanship of multiple individuals in the...

    I go away, and I miss a whole edition - Help?!

    As all the others have said.....but I'll add another option. If you enjoyed 3.0/3.5...I'd take a look at Pathfinder. Paizo has released their own game that extends and fiddles with the 3.0 ruleset and has a very large following. Tons of game material there as well.

    Kickstarter Too many Kickstarter projects? Is Kickstarter the new d20 glut?

    Being a news site...publishing the information when it is, in fact, news, is probably critical :)

    Kickstarter Too many Kickstarter projects? Is Kickstarter the new d20 glut?

    I just don't see this as being a legitimate argument. Crowd funding is something that should be open to all levels of development. Smaller projects have an opportunity to get an audience...and larger projects have an opportunity to prove themselves to the fans rather then having to go through...

    The Shackled City - Golarion Prelude

    The group breaks camp and heads down the southern passage. The passage is finished dwarven stonework, like most of the original city. As you step close to the dim crystals on the ceiling, they again come to life bathing the passage in a soft blue light. After a few yards, you encounter a...

    My mistake, Soda Pop Miniatures was the company, and Tentacle Bento was the project.

    [PF] Way of the Wicked - Golarian

    Herik examines the oil barrels. The halfling's idea has merit....perhaps we can lay a trap? A fire would be an excellent diversion, and it would also serve to bring many guards to one place. But if we did it, our surprise would be gone. The keep would be on full alert. But....if the place...

    A Keep On The Borderlands: Arrival

    Greggory was still pulling his blade free from the giant beastman when Bastion thundered forward into the next wave of creatures. He wiped the beasts foul ichor from his face with the hem of his cloak. Damn blue bloods. Think a horse and a bit of castle forged steel makes them invincible. He...

    Romance of the River Kingdoms II

    Glip takes Annika's words as a signal and dives into the water, his spear and shield arranged before him to help cut through the water. He expected to feel relief at being submerged in the life waters after so long, but the water smelled corrupt and burned his flesh. He made for the creatures...

    And just to throw this out there, I'd love to see a company as awesome as Paizo do a Kickstarter to try and fund something really experimental and unique. Or, honestly, I'd love if they'd do a "Bones" version of their prepainted mini's like Reaper is doing.

    Unethical? what? How is it unethical?

    Why can't it do both? Let new creators create and allow established companies to take risks on things they might not otherwise take.

    Kickstarter Too many Kickstarter projects? Is Kickstarter the new d20 glut?

    I think you're wrong. There is a lot of chaff in their database right now, but many existing companies that have a reputation to worry about have used the model and site to great affect. I think the Kickstarter website itself (technology) isn't very good, and could use with some updating. I'm...

    Kickstarter Too many Kickstarter projects? Is Kickstarter the new d20 glut?

    A failed kickstarter by a well established company would be fairly damning, as the people that are most likely to contribute are the biggest fans.
