I'd love to see a second Monster Manual

Ah my mistake. I must have been thrown off by Slavicsek's involvement. You're correct.

I remember this from when it was new but it never made much of an impact on me. I was mostly in it for Star Wars but fell in love with Paranoia. Most of the other stuff just seemed...eh. Though I remember also being intrigued by Alternity. I guess that would be WEG's other OTHER Sci-Fi RPG...

That didn't start with the one ring. D&D fans have been arguing over Gandalf's stats as long as there's been a forum to argue them in.

Seems...redundant. Everything in Tolkien's books is already in D&D.

Any question can be answered "No." It could also be answered "Cheeseburger" whether it makes sense or not. Betteridge's law doesn't suggest that the question should be answered "no." You may be right, however. Obviously when you open the floodgates, you can't stop the flood. But I don't think...

Judging by the reports roll20's ORR group puts out, there is indeed a lot of drop off percent wise in the top 5, but Star Wars by FFG definitely has its own fans. Some things to keep in mind as to why you don't hear much. 1) It has its own forums and podcasts. If you don't play, you're not...

I just think "saved" is a strong word when the brand wasn't in danger. It's a boost of popularity. The last time D&D was saved was when WOTC bought it out. Had that not. happened, D&D might have not made it into the 22st century as anything other than nostalgia. If you're going to do an...

I like having videos of D&D games available, but I think this article is rather a stretch. When did video save D&D? What did it save D&D from? Acquisitions Incorporated games are great fun to watch but they were designed to get people playing 4th edition, which ultimately proved unpopular...

While I enjoy the tone and style of this adventure, I'm finding myself a little dissatisfied with the new version of the tarokka reading. In the original, you got significant advantages fighting Strahd in the indicated location with the indicated items. In the new one, I don't see any...

Actually, Mystara in module B7. But they're probably branching out. Like BevMo.

Can you give an example of something you feel it needs to work better as an adventure or as a setting? My own impression so far is very favorable. It's. A million times more faithful to the original I6 than Expeditions was. And the new locations and side adventures seem full of the same kind of...

Yes. I'm familiar with the DMG version but the one in CoS is unique and makes no mention of using the abilities from the DMG. If that's the intention, it should say it, since RAW, it's just a basic sword and that could be a problem for.DDAL. Edit: never mind. Just reread and it does say it has...

I still have a lot of book to go through, so may be missing something but does the sun sword seem incomplete to anyone else in the appendix? It's sentient and....what else? Is it now a perfectly ordinary sword with no enchant bonus, no daylight, but it has feelings? I hope not because I would...

I'll be visiting my FLGS (Gameology) to get my reserved copy this morning

Why can't you?

The merger is still hypothetical and unlikely at this point.

One Core book, one Career book, one Equipment book gets you all the rules. Each is available in three flavors so you can mix and match. So if you're doing straight up Sci-Fi with futuristic gear and no magic or time travel, you probably want Future Core, Future Careers and Future Equipment...

How many people who saw Lord of the Rings do you think read the books first? Here's a hint: very few. While less true of Harry Potter, there were still many who saw it without ever touching one of Rowling's books. Sherlock's fans read little Doyle. Little of the audience for Pride and...

Completely arbitrary. I could counter by saying that if DreamWorks' Trolls doesn't suck ochre jelly, they should consider animation. Luckily, neither your opinion nor rmine matters. The studio has decided.
