One of the campaign frames, Five Banners Burning, mentions Eberron: Rising from the Last War as an inspiration. But yeah, you already have the robot PC. You'd just need something like an artificer and you're set. The three pages at the start dedicated to disabled PCs covers everything you'd need...

Their standard "fighter type" is the Guardian or the Warrior. Guardian is the tank; warrior is the damage dealer.

That’s great. I’m really hoping they actively support Daggerheart. There’s also a community license program and SRD available.

Yeah. This an many of the other interviews on the game make it really clear to me they’re going to switch to Daggerheart going forward. Not having to fight the system to get the game and story you want is huge.

Lincoln had a habit of writing angry letters and stuffing them in a drawer rather than sending them. Maybe writing out the angry but not posting it will give you the benefit of venting without drawing the wrath.

That's the crux of it. Any argument people can make about audience sticking with CR regardless of system also applies to Daggerheart as well as any version of D&D. Any argument people can make about audience abandoning CR because of switching systems also applies to whichever version of 5E they...

I started in 1984 with B/X and quickly switched to AD&D. My brothers were collectors and already had TSR's Top Secret and Star Frontiers along with other games. It wasn't even months before I grabbed up whatever I could find at the local game store. FASA's Star Trek RPG and TSR's Marvel Super...

There’s science on how people forget the most familiar things or don’t bother to remember them in the first place. The old “I know it like the back of my hand” phrase has been tested repeatedly. Most people cannot tell the difference between the back of their own hand and the back of a similar...

As an aside, Mothership is absolutely fantastic. The Player’s Survival Guide and Warden’s Operations Manual are absolutely worth the read for anyone and everyone playing RPGs. Not just OSR or old-school games. Such a great mix of old- and new-school design and principles.

Given the state of the world, I don’t see how anyone could be anything but an antinatalist. To be clear, antinatalists are all about personal choice. Not about forcing that choice on others. But there are crazies in every sufficiently large group.

It’s weird how people can’t tell the difference between human nature and the culture they’re raised in.

Laughs in spoilers.

I bounced off Voyager really hard. Mostly a great cast and characters, but to my mind they squandered the majority of the potential of the premise in the pilot. Tim Russ as Tuvok was brilliant bust kinda wasted. He's incredibly funny. The EMH is great. Loved Torres...but that's a hell of a...

Minor spoiler text meme.

Well look at that. Who would have guessed overly complicated rules interact badly with each other? If only there was some obvious solution for everyone to pretend doesn’t exist.

Yep. One of my favorite DS9 episodes and easily a top 10 of all Star Trek. It’s the episode I use to get people hooked on DS9.

Yes, they absolutely are. The memo about supply and demand seems to have been mysteriously lost in the conversation about digital products. An infinite supply (which you get with digital content) should mean lower prices. Yet they're going up instead. You sign up with your library and can have...
