    D&D General DnD Version History Timeline

    My mistake. Put PF2e before the wrong dark line. When I reviewed it, I thought it a bit weird Starfinder was after PF2E. I should have picked that up! I used the release of expanded giftset as the consolidation of the expanded rules. I realise some of the individual books were published...

    D&D General DnD Version History Timeline

    Even with my research, I missed the later black box Challenger edition. I found some evidence but could to pin it down and just assumed it was a 90's computer game spin off. Totally forgotten Mystara and how it falls between the edition cracks. I just googled challenger box and this thread is...

    D&D General DnD Version History Timeline

    Good points. I should have included Unearthed Arcana. One of my fav books actually! So easy to get tunnel vision when working on a project which is why I posted to fix my blindspots. Thanks for the other references. I am only just coming to terms with there being 3 versions of DnD before my...

    D&D General DnD Version History Timeline

    The list could be endless so I was limiting myself to rulesets with directly links such as retro clones or SRD derived rulesets. My logic for the random other rules was they were prompted/accelerated by the OGL crisis and try to be compatible with 5e mechanics within the limits of copyright. I...

    D&D General DnD Version History Timeline

    It was explorative drawing translating my research into the various releases into what I envisioned as an evolutionary tree. I used Excalidraw which is a vector based web app/javascript plugin with a hand drawn asthetic. I utilised the grid system to keep it basically aligned. The grid was...

    D&D General DnD Version History Timeline

    That was a Google fail on my part. I do not follow MCDM closely and I did mean their currently unnamed rpg which seemed it be a 5e spin off after the OGL fiasco. I am currently calling these "5e (but legally not) rpgs" and I only knew of BlackFlag/ToV and the MCDM rpg.

    D&D General DnD Version History Timeline

    I have always struggled to understand the history of Dnd given all the different versions. I thought I might share my process to come to grips with the different versions over the years. What helped a bit was making a map of content in Obsdian (markdown notetaking software) that showed the...

    Gizmodo Reveals OGL v1.1's 'Term Sheet' Carrots For Selected Publishers

    This is why I have taken the stand that not only will I not support OGL1.1, I will not support any product or service that does. This also includes OGL2.0, 3.0, x.0 regardless of how many backflips the WotC have left. If they decide to rejoin our community under ORC ... perhaps.

    RPG Print News – Cubicle 7, Free League, Mongoose, and More

    @Charles Dunwoody Is this the right price? It's US$59.95 on their website. Might be a muddle of similarly priced books before and after it.
