Wasn't the first Dragonlance novel series adapted from actual role-playing sessions by Tracy Hickman & Co? I think I've read that they played all the Heroes of the Lance as characters and adventured through Krynn, and from their adventrues the novels were created.

I might also add that Fantasy flight Games have released a board game version of the latest X-Com game. It features notactical combat unfortunately, so it's more global in scale but it has interceptor combat and research, I think. Might be worth looking into if you want to include those mechanics.

Glad to be of help. Pro-tip: the 2nd Edition KS campaign just finished, but you can still get all the special deals etc. from it directly from Uncle Mike's SA website (I think) as a sort of pre-order system. There are card decks for AI controlled enemies and other stuff. The SA forum on the LAF...

I am fairly sure that I ahve seen at least one X-Com fan mod for the Strange Aeons lovecraftian skirmish tabletop system: http://www.lead-adventure.de/index.php?board=45.0 I think it lends itself well to X-Com scenarios... Hell, the game basically IS X-Com, minus the research and UFOs, and...

Anothter update before the KS closed coming sunday! I haven't posted in a while so there's much to say, the main thing is that the game is currently funded over 450%! Check the KS page for details on unlocked boosters etc. There are vinyl templates, all sorts of new miniatures, and finally a...

For you maybe not, I enjoy this discussion, wether or not it has any kind of factual basis; It's just make-believe! :)

A viable point of view. Personally, I got the impression that the different editions are distinct enough to be counted as seperate games; With a lot of love for 3.5, a lot of hate for 4E, and so on. However, I only got this impression through forum browsing as opposed to being a real part of the...

That's why I used the term "theorize", I specifically did not state that this was a fact. Just food for thought, is all. (Unconnected to the undoubtly questionable statistics presented in the OP): I care who's on top because it's interesting to see how the RPG scene has developed in the past...

You are right. I still think it's a reasonably indicator, considering that Roll20 is the biggest VTT out there by far (or is it?) and assuming that all RPG players from all different games have the same percentage of VTT usage ;) One could also theorize that since Pathfinder is considered a...

I'm a little bit surpirised that PF has that muhc of an edge compared to the other games. It really drives home the point that WotC lost their first place in the fantasy RPG scene and Pazio managed to get on top by a large margin.

Another small update: The PDF rules are no longer a seperate pledge, now they are included in every pledge level that gets you a physical copy of the rulebook :)

Good news, the KS was a tremendous success thus far, it's already over 200% funded less than three days after it's launch. Current funding is ~22k, a couple of stretch goals have already been unlocked with great value for themed boxes of miniatures. Also note that shipping is included for the...

Howdy folks! The Kickstarter for Strange Aeons 2nd Edition is live. Kickstarter Link If you want to get into SA, now is probably the best opportunity. You can find my own experiences (although I used cardboard miniatures) and lots of photos on the Lead Adventure Forum...

Some may know that I love cardboard miniatures, here is a new approach: The front and backside images of the standees as printed onto clear plastic which erases the black or white utlines that paper miniatures typically have. I think they look quite well and as they say in the KS description, it...

I made a "Future Noir" city for a The Department campaign (think Blade Runner). http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?334608-Future-Noir-Blade-Runner-amp-The-Department

The funding goal has been reached a few days ago and the first stretch goal has been unlocked as well. There's still 9days left so I think we can expect to see plenty more. The newest update also has some pre-alpha gameplay footage. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1752350052/hard-west
