    The Last Paizo Roundup: Diaspora Strain, Temple of the Peacock Spirit, Construct Handbook, Martial A

    If these things are just going to get reported as regular news items, would a name change even be necessary if there's no column to name?

    2000AD Look what I have...

    Interesting that the cover goes with "tabletop adventure game" and not "roleplaying game" or a version thereof.

    2000AD Behold This Judge Dredd & The Worlds of 2000 AD Tabletop RPG Hardcover!

    Interesting that the cover goes with "tabletop adventure game" and not "roleplaying game" or a version thereof.

    News Digest: Critical Role Leaving Geek & Sundry, Origins Award Winners, Pathfinder 2nd Ed Previews,

    Ah, I understand now! This makes sense. Thanks for the detailed answer.

    News Digest: Critical Role Leaving Geek & Sundry, Origins Award Winners, Pathfinder 2nd Ed Previews,

    So is GF9 going in a different direction with their D&D games? This one seems more streamlined and doesn't come in the multiple versions (painted/unpainted) like the last few.

    It's FREE RPG DAY, So Head To Your Local Game Store Today!

    Can I use this space to vent a little about my Free RPG Day experience? My local store, where I'm a know-my-face-but-not-my-name regular, wasn't listed as participating on the Free RPG Day website. Several other stores, much further away from me, were listed, but I thought I'd swing by anyway...

    The Next Dungeons & Dragons Storyline Will Be...

    For those who care about such things, there's a product page up now for a Dragon Heist-themed dice set (similar to what they did for Tomb of Annihilation). It comes with a hit point tracker and the standard array of dice, including an extra d20 (which, based on the photo, is huge for some...

    The Next Dungeons & Dragons Storyline Will Be...

    I bet you're right. Both the titling convention ("Waterdeep: _______") and the logo treatment on the cover suggest it would be part of a series.

    New Hobby Releases In Stores & PDF Spotlight: 16th April 2018

    Is that typo on the cover of "Slaves of the Earthlings" in the final version? EDIT: Quick Preview at the DriveThru link suggests not.

    Pathfinder 2 Playtest Preorders, Podcasts, & "Pathfinder 1.5"

    Me, too. The collector in me was like, "LIMITED HARDCOVER! GO GO GO GO GO!!!" but then the rest of my brain kicked in and said, "Dude: it's a playtest," and I knew I couldn't really justify it to myself.

    Pathfinder 2E Paizo Announces Pathfinder 2nd Edition!

    It's at turns hilarious and disgusting. So far it breaks down into: 1.) people who just need to read the FAQ, 2.) people threatening to walk if 2e core doesn't include some form of their own pet rule/class/race/preference, 3.) people hugely SHOCKED that this inevitable thing is happening and...

    News Digest: New D&D Licensed Products, Steve Jackson Games Annual Report and New Products, Internat

    So is the ship mini a clue to the next big adventure release? Pirate themed, maybe?

    Why Didn't Harry Potter Change the Game?

    This is also, supposedly, why Rowling has never approved any comic book licensing (outside of a one-page illustration for a charity book).

    News Digest: D&D Comics from IDW, DM's Guild Changes, Kingkiller Gets a Director, GAMA's New Retaile

    The similarity IMMEDIATELY jumped out at me, too! And it arose from similar circumstances of bad publicity and hasty self-censorship--and both ultimately wound up by the wayside.

    December Storytellers Vault Roundup

    Great idea for a spotlight column! I think the proliferation of these officially sanctioned fan-content sites for game lines is a fascinating development, and I'm interested to see how this model mutates as the industry adapts and reimplements.

    Two Days Left To Vote For Most Anticipated RPG of 2018!

    Based on the nomination thread, I would have put money on Warhammer (which I'm not familiar with, so did not vote for it).

    Taking Nominees for Most Anticipated RPG of 2018

    Looking at my outstanding Kickstarters, the ones that jump out are Sigil & Sign and the already-mentioned Torg: Eternity and Top Secret: NWO. Maybe do this same thing, but for supplements? It would be an eclectic list for sure...

    Basic Fantasy Role-Playing: An Entertaining Game With One Of The Most Robust Communities You'll Find

    it doesn't feature the works of creators who spend their copious free time being edgy online. ? What is this in reference to?

    Starfinder Paizo And Dynamite Entertainment Host Pathfinder Livestream With Pathfinder And Starfinder Adventure

    Recently got on board the PF comics train; Dynamite does a much better job with the license than IDW has been doing with D&D, which has dropped off precipitously since the excellent run by John Rogers years ago. I prefer the straight-Golarion stories, but Worldscape was a fun diversion.
