    D&D 5E (2014) Warduke, Kelek, Strongheart Miniatures!

    It will be the 'squee' heard 'round the world.

    D&D 5E (2014) Warduke, Kelek, Strongheart Miniatures!

    I need these as the little brothers and sisters to my original action figures. Now we need a Fortress of Fangs miniature terrain!

    TSR Just when you thought it was all over.... now there’s a fourth TSR!

    Have you looked at Symbaroum and how they handle corruption? Every magic spell learned corrupts and everything cast corrupts. You pass a threshold and turn into evil twisted NPC. Different ‘classes’ provide ways to mitigate corruption.

    TSR Just when you thought it was all over.... now there’s a fourth TSR!

    Two things bug me about this. One there is no acknowledgement of the actual argument of what Ernie and associates said in regards to transfolk and the horrible doubling down. Two there is no acknowledgement of all the OSR companies who have been pumping out tons of old school feeling products...

    Truly this dumpster fire is a renewable energy source. If only we can harness the power of this circular firing squad!

    TSR Just when you thought it was all over.... now there’s a fourth TSR!

    For a minute I was starting to think 'Michael' had staged a hostile intervention to save TSR. Cutting out all the principals by taking over their accounts. But sadly, it is just poorly planned spin and gaslighting.

    TSR TSR3 Throws In Towel, Rebrands Wonderfilled

    Too borrow Umbran's car metaphor. Even though the majority of car travel speed is in the sub-65mph, there are venues to go faster. There are the Formula 1s and NASCAR to push the limits of automotive performance. There is a dearth of high level play options or examples out there. This would tell...

    TSR Just when you thought it was all over.... now there’s a fourth TSR!

    We wuz hacked. My little brother used my account yesterday, totally not me. What are you going to believe your lying eyes or me? Apparently, the Stockholm Syndrome has set in for poor Michael. Either that or WotC/Hasbro has a plan so cunning you could pin a tail on it and call it a weasel. It...

    D&D 5E (2014) (+) What would you want for 5e Dark Sun?

    I think the weird fiction angle for Athas is fun and worthy of DMsGuild attention, but a base book should focus on the Tablelands and Tyr region in particular, if only to give some depth to the setting in the ~300 pages we would have. There are likely small hubs of life on the rest of Athas...

    TSR TSR3 Throws In Towel, Rebrands Wonderfilled

    The man has earned the right to retire and focus on his art as art rather than art as income. I doubt the TSR3: Die Harder and the Dragonlance foofaraw had any real influence other than to reinforce the idea of working for yourself, you control your own narrative.

    TSR TSR3 Throws In Towel, Rebrands Wonderfilled

    They deftly avoided being labeled WtF Inc. So kudos! I can't imagine the angst at WotC over being blocked from Dinehart's Twitter feed. Donning sackcloth and ashes is the dress code for today.

    D&D 5E (2014) PlaneJammer: Sailing the Astral Sea

    I wouldn't link it to the mental stats of the PC. Give the ship the stats, so that no matter the pilot it is the same. You can have a rogue modron jump on the helm and argue esoteric law to get you where you are going or have Night Hag pilot it using convoluted contracts. The navigator is like a...

    TSR Giantlands

    I don't know. Maybe I am jaded, but the claims about Giantlands being revolutionary and first of its kind are marketing dress. It doesn't affect me. Dismissing other people's work is disappointing, but is just so much squid ink. No one is going to back a Kickstarter that is labeled 'an iterative...

    D&D 5E (2014) PlaneJammer: Sailing the Astral Sea

    I always loved that travel in the astral, in prior editions, was powered by thought. Having 'navigators' who only think of the destination, consulting planar charts to imagine paths around the cosmic debris, linked to the planejammer like a symbiote, sounds cool to me. Of course, having ships...

    D&D 5E (2014) Why do people care when threads get necro'd?

    There is a strong bias that necromancy is evil based on its connection to the Negative Energy Plane in previous editions. This is no longer the case in the current edition. (Future-proofed for future necro) I like seeing necro threads. It is like a small hit of nostalgia. Sometimes, especially...

    TSR TSR3 is no longer the original TSR

    Takes out a venerable tinfoil chapeau The thing is they aren't even taking advantage of outrage capitalism. I guess they could see if revenue at the Hobby Museum is up, but why not test it with a "tru olde skool roleplaying without the politics we don't like" module? All this bad publicity is...

    D&D 5E (2014) Bruce Campbell playing D&D with Lucy Lawless DMing, in Falkovnia? Maybe?

    Will his character possess a 'boomstick'? Or a chainsaw hand?

    D&D 5E (2014) (+) What would you want for 5e Dark Sun?

    It also brings other power groups into the Tithe. The Trade Houses have to transport any trade between the City-States and could supply slaves for favors/goods from Sorcerer Kings. It creates a much more clandestine war between the City-States, instead of massive sieges. No one wants to be...
