I’m late to the party, I assume this has been thoroughly discussed already (but I ain’t reading 19 pages about this). But I’m shocked! Mainly because this is exactly the kind of thing that seemed to happen with every other attempt by WotC to create a project like this during every other...

Masterful satire!

Cheers friend. Mostly I’m willing to overlook the accuracy of dubious historical material for fantasy gaming purposes, since it’s the story that matters ultimately. But this particular author doesn’t deserve to be given an audience.

Just an aside, OP quotes Eugen Herrigel for this article, from his classic book “Zen and the Art of Archery”. The quote seems innocuous in this context, but the author was a literal Nazi who knew little about archery and even less about Zen. His book is infamous now as a fraudulent account of...

I’m interested in the DCC Purple Planet stuff. Unfortunately I’m a KS backer in Canada, so I’m still waiting for my own order to be fulfilled a year later even as I’m hearing about these items becoming available in retail anyway. Makes me wonder why I bothered backing the kickstarter…

You’re complicating the definition. It’s online media and it’s social, that’s it. It might be outmoded compared to the archetypal “social media” but it definitely is social media. Penguins and ostriches may not look like typical birds, but they’re definitely still birds.

As a Canadian, I hope this eventually spurs some growth in our domestic printing industry. We’re right next door to the USA but book prices have been insanely marked up for decades now, nevermind the increasingly ridiculous cost of shipping across the border. Plus, we’re the ones with the paper, so…

Strixhaven was meh, Ravnica was okay, and Theros was actually a pretty decent setting. The real problem is that D&D settings usually require more meat than a card game can provide, so all three of those settings felt either too small or too underdeveloped. (Strixhaven is a school. Ravnica is a...

I’ve noted several times that half of my FLGS is now just WizKid miniatures of every different type. I appreciate that they’re attractive and not too expensive here and there, but I’m concerned given that TTRPGing apparently needs so much plastic now? (I know it doesn’t, but you can’t tell that...

D’oh! Was thinking of Monstrous Menagerie but wrote Trials & Treasures instead for some reason. Anyway, they’re both great.

Valid point: there’s a lot more value than just the SRD’s statblock. Trials & Treasures is a thick and impressive book!

Could do four different versions, even: 2014 A5E TotV 2024

Yeah the A5E elemental stats look much closer to the O5E/2014 stats than the KP stats appear to be. There’s definitely some big improvements in A5E over O5E, but this particular example doesn’t highlight that.

What, no Level Up: Advanced 5E?

“Yeet damage”. Not to be confused with the opposite, which is “yoink damage”.

Then you’ll love my new character, Jo Tunbjorn.

You can’t expect a busy Time Lord like Morrus to always keep track of what year he’s in, cut him some slack EDIT: Morrus is the ENth Doctor

Did they ever find the trophy? I remember hearing it was lost, just wondering if it was ever found.

And if you’re playing DCC, it should be no other way but janky!

I love WOIN!
