    SPOILERS RULES

    So, can we post our thoughts about Star Wars: The Force Awakens in the non-spoiler thread after we've seen it in the UK or Germany on December the 17th?

    The official 2015 Doctor Who (with spoilers for aired episodes only) thread

    For some reason, I read your name as MerricB on my phone :)

    The official 2015 Doctor Who (with spoilers for aired episodes only) thread

    Short of avoiding all news, the internet, and TV, it would be almost impossible for someone in the UK to avoid the spoiler about Clara leaving.

    The official 2015 Doctor Who (with spoilers for aired episodes only) thread

    Weirdly, I think it was actually you that spoiled the cast change for me. Well, you spoiled it first. Then it was impossible to avoid the news. Sigh! At least I should avoid most of the Star Wars spoilers.

    D&D Fan Rewrites the 5E Player's Handbook Index

    Yeah, the index is a running joke in my group. Sorry, but I don't have time to contribute right now, but I'll be interested to see how this thread goes.

    [SPOILERS] James Bond and SPECTRE - A Short Review

    Just watched it tonight, and really enjoyed it. Probably my 3rd favourite after Skyfall and Casino Royale (of the Daniel Craig bond films). The ending certainly felt like his swan song, as Water Bob said, and even though he has been my favourite, I wouldn't mind if he went out on a high now.

    Is it affecting other parts of your life?

    Doctor Who companions [spoilers for 2015 series]

    I really don't know, and I have realised that I am hopeless at pre-judging Dr Whos, Companions, or James Bonds. I didn't think Tait or Craig would be any good, but they turned out to be fantastic. To be honest, I couldn't believe that anyone would be as good as Pertwee, but I was only 7 at the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Official conversion guides from ALL editions are coming this fall!

    Ditto. The only real challenge has been magic items - and we ended up just removing most of them except for one or two key equivalents.

    D&D 5E (2014) Saltmarsh?

    I wrote up my take on Ned and Sanbalet in Nebulous' thread. Hopefully, you'll find them useful.

    RAGE OF DEMONS Has A Trailer!

    Yeah, if that was for a D&D movie, I'd even consider seeing it at the cinema!

    CONAN LIVES! Info on the new Conan RPG

    Because there is a market for games you don't like - e.g. Fiasco, FATE. I don't like Monopoly, but Hasbro keep producing different versions of it, and people keep buying it; I don't scratch my head as to why they are alienating me! I think that was fairly obvious about 15 pages back...

    Remember Dungeonscape, it is now Playbook an avaiable in iTunes

    Good luck to them. They seemed like an enthusiastic bunch. No interest from me currently, as it is for a game I don't play on a platform I don't have, but I'll keep an eye on what they do in future.

    D&D 5E (2014) Primeval Thule - D&D 5th Edition Setting [Kickstarter]

    They're also doing a slacker backer programme, for anyone that missed out :)

    D&D 5E (2014) Primeval Thule - D&D 5th Edition Setting [Kickstarter]

    I backed it on the first day (and managed to get an Early Bird offer - woohoo!). I remember being excited when I saw the original KS, but then realised that it was for systems I don't play. So, when I saw the latest KS for a 5e version I jumped straight in. I've got to decide whether I go for...

    Character Narratives Preview from PRIMEVAL THULE

    lol! I read this thread on my phone, then logged onto my PC to reply, and I was going to write "I think you may be overthinking this..." :) Can I make a suggestion for how to word short rest abilities? "You cannot use Cutthroat Strike again until after you have rested for at least 60 minutes."

    Character Narratives Preview from PRIMEVAL THULE

    I'm encouraged to see the sasquatches taking note of feedback - whether about the 4e-isms, VTT or DM screens. Can't wait to start reading through the PDF at the end of the month!

    Unplaytested vehicle rules

    Quick observation - in real life, vehicles can decelerate more rapidly than they can accelerate (I haven't done more than a quick look, but it appears to be 1.5-2 times). If you wanted to model this, then I suggest allowing vehicles to decrease their SPEED by twice (or 1.5x) their ACCELERATION...
