Basically this. The "canon" of Doctor Who changes with every episode. What's true in episode 1 is false in episode 2 and legend in episode 5. It's best to avoid it altogether. As one example, there are multiple versions of Atlantis and the sinking thereof within a single classic series of Doctor...

The thing I'm interested in exploring is the idea of multiple campaign frames in one setting. It doesn't have to be one frame per setting. I think of frames almost like TV series pitches. This series, this story, is going to be about these things and these themes. But that doesn't preclude those...

It's not really any different than a wizard in 5E. You have a spell list (all possible wizard spells) and spells known (the ones in your spell book) and spells prepared (one's you can use today). It's no more complicated than that. In fact, it's far easier than that because your total number of...

Wow. It's really climbing on Amazon. Some online sales estimators put that #75 across all books at around 12,000 copies sold. Just on Amazon.

Well, the silver lining is you can spend your money elsewhere going forward. I know I will be.

Yep. People will bend over backwards to justify getting something they want. Just look at Goodman himself as one example. Getting to produce this book is clearly more important to him than his reputation and whatever customers he loses because of his continuing to work with a Holocaust-denying...

“You know, the very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common. They don’t alter their views to fit the facts. They alter the facts to fit their views. Which can be uncomfortable if you happen to be one of the facts that needs changing.” —Doctor Who

Depends on how you mean willing. Paul McGann could said to have done so willingly by drinking the gin and juice on Karn. David Tennant in one of his finales willingly uses regeneration energy, but it doesn't trigger regeneration per se. Matt Smith willingly regenerates at the end of his run in...

“We were somewhere around Lundeth, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold.”

I'm a series-and-a-half behind. But when I saw that big Doctor Who forum site go down I knew something was up and was spoiled for the end of today's episode. Clearly I need to get a move on. So wild.

Ah. I was taking those comments more in the vein of "a good PR person could put a shine on this turd and somehow make it all okay" rather than telling him to not do it in the first place.

Or you know...not gone into business with a Holocaust denying bigot.

You can't associate with Holocaust deniers, racists, sexists, bigots, etc and expect to come away clean. Willingly and intentionally associating with people like that is an incredibly atrocious choice. The people who do so knowingly deserve every bit of bad press they get. You side with that...

I've known them for years. Loved their products for years. Played their games for years. Hell, I was this close to running Road Crew games for them. Which makes all this that much more disappointing and aggravating.

Goodman has released yet another video, this time claiming that everyone who's mad at him is mischaracterizing him and his position. This is, unfortunately, an incredibly common alt-right tactic. "We could have rolled this project out with a lot more clarity. Now to be clear Goodman Games...

The more I dig around the book the more I like it. The wild west + kaiju frame is awesome. Might be my favorite of the bunch.

Both the length and the content. Nothing adult, but it's not light reading. Dropping that door stopper in an 11-year-old's lap and expecting them to maintain interest seems like setting them up to fail. I bought a copy for my brother and my adult child. Neither got more than ~60-70 pages in...

Just be aware that it's a 544-page door stopper. I would absolutely not recommend it for an 11-year-old.

There's a bit around 16 minutes in where there was a show of hands of who had run Daggerheart yet. Of the cast the only two who raised their hands were Matt and Marisha.
