    D&D 5E (2014) DARK SOULS' New 5E Mechanics

    I don't do well with real-time combat. My reaction speed is abysmal and my tactical instincts are worse.

    D&D 5E (2014) DARK SOULS' New 5E Mechanics

    Note: I have never played the games that inspired this, and likely never will. The Position mechanic is intriguing. Effectively determining your hit points at the start of each encounter makes for a fascinating set of tactical challenges, as well as addressing how the "luck and/or magical...

    Thor: Love and Thunder spoilers

    Possibly when the space aliens have been around long enough, they transcend their material forms to become energy beings who reside in different dimensions. Possibly this, rather than dying, is what we see Odin doing in Ragnarok, explaining why he's able to offer some advice to Thor later in the...

    Darksun TSR sales! From Benjamin Riggs.

    This continues to surprise, I honestly would have thought Dark Sun did much better than Ravenloft. I think the moral of the story here is that releasing a revised edition of something when sales of the original start to flag is not a particularly sound strategy; it doesn't seem to EVER produce...

    You are less alone than you think.

    Ravenloft TSR sales numbers

    So sales of Realm of Terror actually rebounded after the Revised Box Set had been available for a year? That's a bit odd.

    Ms Marvel (spoilers)

    Don't let it trouble you, we're talking stuff from around 50 years ago at this point. :)

    Ms Marvel (spoilers)

    In the Captain Marvel comics that Carol's identity as the original Ms. Marvel spun out of, Rick Jones would switch places with Captain Mar-Vell by clasping his Nega-Bands together, summoning him from the Negative Zone (another dimension) where he was stuck for reasons.

    D&D General 7 Wonders of the Natural World(s)

    The Underdark, as it is in most settings, would qualify as a natural wonder all its own. (Though it may not be strictly natural in some settings.)

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    Mongoose has the first, but the other is still owned by the current holders of the GDW brand, per DriveThru.

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    Yeah, but. This.

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    Yeah, that would not surprise me. Depress me further, yes, but not surprise.

    The Negative Zone, probably.

    Ben Riggs Releases Historical Sales Numbers for D&D Settings

    ... I'm genuinely stunned by this. I mean, if you add in the adventures, I suspect the picture must be utterly opposite, but ...

    Ben Riggs Releases Historical Sales Numbers for D&D Settings

    The only one I ever owned firsthand was From the Ashes, interestingly, having been introduced to Greyhawk through a copy of the Greyhawk Wars wargame I received as a Christmas present; my copies of World of Greyhawk and Oriental Adventures were bought second hand, years later. That the latter...

    Spoilers MCU - a list of loose threads, plot seeds, and the like

    Mysterio's Crew: Are still at large after unmasking Peter. I suspect White Vision may be revealed to have destroyed himself in order to fulfill his commands to destroy the Vision in the hex.

    Spoilers MCU - a list of loose threads, plot seeds, and the like

    I expect both of these to play some sort of role in Secret Invasion. Say rather that I hope that this is the case.

    D&D General Does Character Lifespan Even Matter?

    This. It stopped mattering at all during 4th, and 5th hasn't seen it restored to what limited prominence it enjoyed in 2nd and earlier.
