    RPG Freebies, Bundles, and Sales News (January 22, 2023)

    Actually, no. The material is spread across the three options, so to get everything I want, I'd have to go full bore.

    RPG Freebies, Bundles, and Sales News (January 22, 2023)

    I wish there was a pick and choose option. I'd gladly pay the $25-$30 for most of it, but there's a lot of 5E stuff that frankly, I just don't want. I'd be fine just paying the full amount and just taking what I want. (Caveat: I know I don't have to download everything, but I just feel like I'm...

    WotC Announces OGL 1.1 -- Revised Terms, Royalties, and Annual Revenue Reporting

    The remains of Hasbro that have a say in DnD have openly said that they feel DnD is not being monetized enough. This big change allows those people to be satisified as the big guns will now have to pay royalities.

    Modiphius' Conan TTRPG Is Ending

    If you want to talk Buck Rogers and copyright, I can easily cast "Summon Flint Dille" to chip in, but that would take us majorly off-topic. To summarize though: "Buck Rogers" is trade dress. "Buck Rogers" in his Gil Gerard regeneration is a trademark, AND copyrighted. The original story may...

    Modiphius' Conan TTRPG Is Ending

    It's interesting to note that it seems this poster is judging sales based on US mores and standards. The post he quoted flat out states that this 3e-based system is POPULAR in France. Euro RPGs are far different from American RPGs. Euro-based RPGs aren't written for mass media indulged spoiled...

    What's All This About The OGL Going Away?

    Well, I'm not even touching 5E. The way things are worded sometimes make it hard to differentiate between what is acceptible, and what isn't. The way things are worded, to me, is that if the word exists in the SRD, it can't be used. But I have come to understand that it's more specific...

    What's All This About The OGL Going Away?

    Just as a clarification to me: I don't really like the OGL, to be honest. I think sometimes it's a broad stroke to protect items that shouldn't be copywritten in the first place. But it often makes me feel like I can't call a priest a cleric, a swordfighter a warrior, or a magic user a wizard...

    RPG Crowdfunding News – Monty Python, Paranoia, M&M and More

    I think this is true for 95% of the market. 3rd party products carry it for a few months more, but eventually, it just dies.. looks pointedly at his shelf full of KS'd RPGs that are pretty much dead in the water If you don't cater to the WOTC juggernaut or the OSR, with few exceptions*, you...

    The Monty Python TTRPG Kickstarter Just Went Live!

    By that point though, technology will have advanced far enough that even as homeless folk, you could livestream it on some platform, have an account that people could subscribe/donate through, and wouldn't have to worry about being homeless. People these days just seem to be suckered enthralled...

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    I've pointed out to a few luminaries a very simple thing. If you know how to access them, look at the tax lookup for the DHSM. The DHSM is, in fact, taxed under LaNutso himself, and he is listed as the property owner. If he has to pay or cover for anything, WoTC can take the museum itself...

    D&D (2024) 'One D&D' Takes 5E to New & Digital Places

    It's not the community you're not aligned with, it's WoTC's desire to make more money on an older product. One thing I heard mentioned was that "you can still use adventures from X years ago." Before long, adventures will be treated like card sets in Magic: The Money Pit. If the adventure you...

    RPG Freebies, Bundles, and Sales News (July 24, 2022)

    Generally, I support Humble Bundles. I'm not supporting the Modiphius Star Trek one, however, as they employed Gareth Skarka to write some of the material. While I wasn't a backer, Gareth has been promising fulfillment of his Kickstarter project "Far West" for over 11 years. He's found time to...

    Well, the movie is titled "Honor Among Thieves"... the poster takes it quite literally.

    D&D 5E Doctors & Daleks Previews Include Official 5E DALEK Stats!

    They use the plunger for holding, manipulating and carrying. Works by suction, basically. The Kaled mutant can control/has presets for the varied uses. A light hold for twiddling knobs, a heavier setting for manipulation and the largest for cargo needs. They may not have opposable thumbs, but...

    D&D 5E The Official 5E Version Of Doctor Who Is Coming In Just 2 Weeks!

    What has been basically ignored is the fact that the companions are there to engage in the violence FOR the Doctor. I believe it was a modern run Davros quote about how the Doctor 'builds up an army around him." Ian Chesterton, for example, does engage in fisticuffs and swordplay in a few...

    The ENnies Announces 2022 Nominees

    Good thing Fifth Edition isn't nominated for everything. It'd win everything it was nominated for because of the Murder Hobo Zombies! :) But yes, I'm quite peeved that One Ring didn't get more nominations. I imagine the Best RPG contest is just a popularity contest to begin with. Nobody care...
