    Kickstarter Dungeon Crawler Kickstarter re-launch

    I felt the shipping was too high on the lower end options. I've ordered lots of plastic minis from across the web and even with the two huge elementals, I'm having trouble believing it would take $15 to ship those 16 figs parcel post.

    D&D 5E (2014) Is DnD next chasing a pipedream?

    Wotc doesn't need to get them to switch, Wotc just needs to get their GMs to switch. Pathfinder improved a good deal over 3.5, but still has many related issues. PF just reaped the benefits of 4E's idiosyncrasies. All 5E has to do to get a good chunk of PF GMs back is not be 4E. The PF work load...

    Pathfinder 1E Rules Question: Pathfinder diviner wizard asleep during an ambush

    I say the OP was wrong. Sleeping is covered by the perception rules. The ability does monkeywrench waaay too much stuff, but that is what the ability calls for. Autoperception abilities are often overpowered, but that's what paizo slapped on the Diviner. EDIT Now I think ruling the diviner...

    The Matrix - A false reputation.

    I prefer to take the first movie at its face value. Agents are the arms of the machine overlords which must be stopped and those not out of the matrix are a threat and are doomed past a certain age. In the Matrix anyone not with the resistance is a tool of the system and should be dealt with...

    D&D 5E (2014) Are we back to Feat taxes?

    Correct! If there is a flaw in the system, it should be corrected through errata, NOT a separate and optional addition of the ruleset

    New D&D movie on SyFy tonight - Book of Vile Darkness

    "Miserable excuse for a dragon" Yeah, even the movie recognized that scaleless, soft bellied, mutant wyvern could have been designed a lot better. I'll give the movie props for trying to give insight on how evil thinks in universe. The delivery of the lines themselves could have been better...

    D&D 5E (2014) Mike Mearls's Tweets

    Ditching damage mods can make huge inroads to deflating HP.

    A Problem with Fey

    I'm normally big on the precedence of older editions, but not this time. One of AD&D's failings was that fey were on the most part a children's bowdlerized fairy tale 'force for good' rather than the child stealing, curse flinging fae that are making a comeback in popular media. As for the...

    FFG Dumping WFRP stuff...cancellation or yet another reprint edition?

    Still, the sale is fairly targeted, so I say yes, they are gutting their stock of certain lines. I would welcome a 4E WFRP that had rules closer to the 40kRPG rules as WFRP3E SHOULD have been. While I like WFRP2E, IMHO the ruleset was just a bit too dry, especially when compared to DH/RT/DW/BC/OW.

    Pathfinder 1E Marriage Issue (Aka Wife from Cheliax)

    Assuming guilt by association is generally wrong. But in this case it is just being smart. Can you arrange a mixer party with a few paladins? Maybe Sir Dread might just be a LN Hardass. You'll need access to detect magic and dispel magic to defeat undetectable alignment and Magic aura effects...

    [Trailer] Warm Bodies

    Twilight with zombies. Still, I like the Bonies. That design would work pretty well for ghouls or morhgs

    Media Is Kickstarter ruining podcasts?

    Kickstarter is a problem because of all the spam in generates. Once someone signs up, there is a perverse incentive to generate spam at other centers of online communication in hopes of personal gain through increased pledge goals. What ticks me off is when a kickstarter actively encourages...

    The Museum of Dungeons & Dragons Is A Go! Funding Begins

    More importantly, if they make their goal... How much of this, IF any, can one claim as a tax write off? Doesn't being given any gift from the museum NEGATE the option to use the donation as a tax write off? Since the museum doesn't yet exist, is the paperwork even done so contributions can...
