Looks like the WotC site is down. At least for me.

I have to recommend Adventurer Conqueror King. It has a very classic but clean feel at low levels. Not too much rules (feels a little like AD&D1) and a great Proficiency system that lets players choose from dozens of feat-like abilities, with lots of non-combat proficiencies. At the high levels...

I wish they would free themselves from the baggage of a single setting and clearly communicate that there are many settings, or "worlds" as I would prefer. "In the many worlds of D&D, god come in all facets. In Greyhawk, Boccob the Uncaring oversees all magic, whereas in the Forgotten Realms...

Thanks! I'm pretty sure it's the original wrap. The shop had loads of Dark Sun stuff all hidden in the back of the shop. Also there are dozens of other unused AD&D products. When standing in front it honestly looks exactly like back in the 90s. I know this shop doesn't buy stuff. So I am 95%...

Recently I found an old FLGS that still has the first Dark Sun Campaign setting boxed set and is selling it in it's original shrink wrap for the release price from '91. Now I'm wondering if I should get it as a collector's item. I have no clue if it's worth anything though. Do you believe it...

Nice! Hadn't noticed that. You made my day! :D Now let's all hope they make the 100k.

I'll get a Hardcover once I've decided which one to get: Pathfinder - not to keen on the system but I'll find tons of players who'll want to jump into a Rappan Athuk campaign if I run it. Swords & Wizardry - The one I'd like to have for myself but will have more than a hard time to find...

Sent this as an e-mail earlier, but I'll retype it here to maximize my chances of being picked. :) As a player of 3rd edition, for me and my group one of the annoyances of mid and high levels are buff spells. Preparing for combat often takes almost as long as the combat itself ("which buff...

I have to say I don't like this idea at all and hope they won't be using it. I can see why they are going for it. But "Invoking weakness" is much too gamey for my tastes. In concept and the name. Also, this shoehorns all kinds of class abilities into one mechanic even though they deserve...

That's what I was worrying, but after thinking about it some more: It wouldn't be so bad if most of the time ability checks weren't rolled but the outcome would be decided by the DM with a mere glance at the ability scores. An example how this could work: Finding a hidden treasure could have...

Has it been announced yet how basic ability checks are made in this system? 2E's roll under mechanic or the later approach of d20 + ability modifiers against a set DC? Can't find the information...

Great news! But... anyone have an idea how I could get a set in Europe?

Icarus.

Great news indeed! Thanks for making these available at such a reasonable price.

This saddens me deeply. Best of wishes to Steve and Rich.

This sucks. Best of wishes to Steve and Rich! After many years of exactly this, I have to say that I despise this business model. It must lead to constant fear among the employers of losing their jobs. In such an atmosphere, how are you supposed to create top standard creative work?

Looks very interesting! I´m a little confused by the name, since Mongoose recently published their Legend RPG.

I had a similar idea and it was discussed here: http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/270617-band-tour-campaign-idea.html

Thanks! I remember reading about Eldritch. Wasn´t the problem with it that the bestiary was never released so and there were no monsters in the core rulebook?

I was meaning crunch, but I agree with the statement above and will surely check out Old School Hack. My players are used to 3rd edition´s (and Pathfinder´s) tons of crunch. When looking at a more rules light system crunch-wise they get the feeling that they can´t realize their character...
