    D&D 5E Anyone using spell points from the DMG?

    I'm curious as to how well they worked for you, especially at higher levels. BONUS: what do you think of – instead of spell slots or spell points – using a spellcasting roll to see if a spell works or not?

    OSR What are your thoughts on the success probabilities of pre-3e versions of D&D?

    With regard to the success probabilities of attacks, thief skills, the damage outputs of various classes at various levels, NWPs in 2e, and anything else you wish to discuss (spell progressions, XP requirements for levelling up), do you find that pre-3e versions of D&D have a good balance...

    The hardcover version of The Bone Age is finally available! Please take a look if the idea of playing a neolithic character fighting off alien invaders on a scorching hot planet sounds like your kind of jam.

    The question I have is, what percent of Pathfinder's share is from 2nd edition?

    Pathfinder 2E Is It Time for PF2 "Essentials"?

    I would like to see a Pathfinder Essentials as an alternative to PF2 that could work with it the same way 4e Essentials worked with core 4e. When the 1e Beginner Box came out, I wanted to see a version that went to level 20. It was a cleaner version of PF core. PF2 is a great game but messy. I...

    D&D Movie/TV Hugh Grant To Play Villain in the D&D Movie

    They're certainly not going for a LOTR vibe, that's for sure. Strikes me as a tongue-in-cheek production. I'm not enthused.

    On Fantasy Grounds D&D Increases Dominance To 71%

    What's interesting to me is Pathfinder 1 having a bigger share than Pathfinder 2. It's even more pronounced on Roll20.

    Savage Pathfinder Pathfinder Adventure Paths Are Coming To Savage Worlds!

    Interesting. I'm curious as to how the ruleset will handle classes, given that they are such an integral part of PF and that SW really doesn't have them (in the traditional sense; they do have Profession Edges which give skill bonuses).

    Release The Bone Age OSR RPG

    Now available at DrivethruRPG! The Ape-Turtles didn't plan on three flying saucers crashing into the planet. The Bone Age is an old-school RPG of neolithic-era tribes struggling against the sudden arrival of bug-eyed aliens. You play a Tuzanian, a tribe of jungle-dwelling...

    D&D 5E Proficiency bonus based AC and armor as temp HP with reduced AC bonus?

    I really like this idea in general. It would play very well with a Lord of the Rings campaign, where most of the characters aren't wearing armor (only Gimli and Frodo are said to wear any, while Boromir had a shield).

    D&D 5E Would this gonzo style fit 5e?

    I need your opinions! My Kickstarter campaign ends Tuesday morning. I'm considering running another one for a 5e version, but don't know if this gonzo style would be of interest to 5e players. If you have the time, would you take a look and tell me if you think a 5e version would fly?

    D&D 5E What sword & sorcery books & supplements are out there for 5e?

    Ha, thanks! I am considering creating a 5e version of it for the remainder of Zine Month, but I'm worried it might cause confusion having back-to-back campaigns for the same milieu. Maybe I'll have to rename it.

    D&D 5E What sword & sorcery books & supplements are out there for 5e?

    Whoops! That is indeed a mistake! I accidentally linked to my Kickstarter. The link has been fixed. Thanks for the heads-up!

    D&D 5E What sword & sorcery books & supplements are out there for 5e?

    Sword & sorcery is a subgenre of fantasy typified by Conan, Elric, Fafhrd & the Gray Mouser, etc. With the exception of Primeval Thule and the World of Xoth, I'm unaware of any 5e-derived sword & sorcery products. Are there any more? Specifically, S&S game books that include the rules, rather...

    Robert Schwalb just complimented my RPG!

    Yeah, THAT Robert Schwalb (Shadow of the Demon Lord and countless D&D stuff)! He just backed my Kickstarter and said "Now this is my kind of weird!" I'm tickled pink!
