Or keeping it only for planar creatures, where alignement really means something....

Oh, crap, I think I missed the D&D 3.5 buy back! Oh even more crap, I missed the D&D 3 too several years before! What a awful day, I realized now I missed the AD&D 2e and the AD&D 1e buy backs then, I was younger at the time, I would have loved those extra bucks! And the Basic D&D buy back?

Well, maybe, but I was just answering to the idea that a plate clad pink haired gnome girls slugging it out with a Dragon is jarring and doesn't make sense in universe. In an universe were dragons roam the land, were archimages cast spells, where fighters can survive to tens of sword cuts...

Well, if I read correctly the last part of the announce, that's just a thing they promise to do, isn't it?

Very true, her perceived exotisme and the associated prejudice are the key of the book: racism, discrimination, xenofobia, fetishism, you have it all in Notre Dame de Paris. Hugo was a great writer with a very modern mindset. Indeed!!

Well, let me answer for me before, I find rad the idea of plate clad pink haired gnome girls slugging it out with a Dragon. The making sense part makes me wonder, which part doesn't make sense for you ? A plate clad girl slugging it out with a Dragon, sense or not? A plate clad gnome...

It isn't a French name, Esmeralda is a Spanish name, and Esmerelda is a weird fantastic version of it. BTW, the Esmeralda name in the Hunchback of Notre Dame it's also a stereotype, but an old one: Victor Hugo named the character Esmeralda, as it's a Spanish name and sounded exotic, and he...

Indeed, Lost Mines of Phandelver is really the only 5e adventure ready to be run with few preparation, I would also love seeing more adventures like it

I have seen many posts where people say they don't like Aquisitions Inc., and I sincerely wonder why. Is it the tone and the art, that are quite different for the usual ones? I can understand it's a turn off for some people, but the content is solid. The franchise idea can be used for many...

The semi-independent adventures are often not-so independent... You can indeed play them stand-alone, but it feels weird, and you often miss things. I fully see the interest of WotC on selling Adventure Paths, but (again personally) I would find more useful setting guides with some short...

It seems legit, indeed! And the cover is pretty! Personally, I only hope it isn't a full campaign, for 1st level characters advancing then to 10th or 15th level. My players would love to have some adventures in the wild cold North, but they wouldn't like a full one year campaign on it... I...

You can dial up or down the grimness, but the base level is way more grim Slavic that happy fantasy...

I had said between 50 and 100... and then I began to count them, and it was more than 120... I think I have a dice problem...

I find the current slow pace rather comforting, because I don't feel flooded by products. And when I want/need something more or different, there is a whole 3rd party ecosystem to look at with some wonderful stuff...

The pitch is really interesting, looking forward to read more :) OK, I am a self assumed old timer, but what about a Story Hour on it? ;)

As a longtime Planescape fan, I would love to see some kind of Nameless One's guide to SIgil and the Planes. Setting, rules and an adventure, with gorgeous DiTerlizzi art. Something that would make young players feel the same awe I felt some 25 years ago when I opened my Planescape box...

Mythic Russia is just that. It uses the HeroQuest game system (the one used for Glorantha), and it's written by Marc Galeotti, a real scholar on Russian matter and deeply passionate on Russian history and myths. Mythic Russia is one of my favorite RPG, and simple reading it is a true pleasure...
