    D&D General Luke Gygax Brings Back Gary Gygax's Castle Zagyg

    Correct. I can't remember if it's the twitch or Youtube but Steve said they were ordered to destroy the original copies they printed (hence the refunds) but the digital copies were held on to. Now, those copies are setup w/20 yr old software so it will need to be updated but the digital...

    D&D General Luke Gygax Brings Back Gary Gygax's Castle Zagyg

    I asked Steve on the recent twitch if Yggsburgh would get an update w/errata and so forth. he stated that they would like to do that in the future, but the lawyer over looking the estate wanted to see if there was enough demand for the initial product, as came out originally, that could help...

    Sing to me, O Muse, of BECMI!

    My first campaign was a different continent on Krynn. But the forces of evil won and the characters had to fight through a Dark Dark Age of Krynn.

    OSR Why B/X?

    I was in a B/X game and brought my RC. Someone made a comment of, "I hate that book". Yet it was used three times to look up odd ball things not in B/X during the game.

    OSR Why B/X?

    BECMI nerfed the thief skills to expand for more levels is the one I have heard about.

    OSR Why B/X?

    Early on the trolls commented that C&C was there to use all the old TSR stuff w/little conversion. That was my biggest pull to it back in the 00's. I also think OSRIC was really popular but everyone at the time was afraid of lawsuits via TSR's history. It wasn't long after that, when no bombs...

    OSR Why B/X?

    Easy to use, easy to mod, easy to come up with a roll (or rule) on the fly that doesn't conflict with other rules too much. I think the base 4 classes are a good basis for nearly any kind of character. I don't really need a barbarian class, just a wild fighter that is cursed w/bezerking or the...

    RPG Evolution: The Pit Problem

    At higher levels I think pits are better in conjunction w/other challenges. Walking down a corridor over a pit trap that does not go off can give characters a sense of safety until an ogre, minotaur, or two with tower shields throw a switch that opens the pit and drops a wall on the other side...

    Just discovered Castles and Crusades

    The healing spell tend to not be 'too' off since the spell is minor. Our group renamed them sorcerer or witch as a personal preference but the spell updates game fine.

    If you ever get a chance to try it near levels 10-12 please let me know. I wonder how magic items will affect the rolls.

    Forgotten Realms edition question

    Way back when I started playing we used FR 1e and played with a very frontier style campaign w/just the 1st 4 or 5 supplements since it was lightly painted w/hooks. When 2e came out our game went much more Ren Fair socializing with book characters because of the DM's love of the novels. With...

    Savage Some Worlds With Battlelords of the 23rd Century

    I remember playing this while listening to Cowboys from H#ll way back when. Our game lasted until my mental hinderance kicked in & I offed the only pilot in the group. Good times. Looks like I'm going to have to dust off my old CDs...

    Much of that is dependent on the type of campaign. I've read comments from their twitch streams that the classes worked out well for the most part.

    Dreams & Machines Is Modiphius' New Age of Roleplaying

    I am hoping it is a very streamlined Conan/Star Trek system. The John Carter rules run VERY fast but I would like to see a little more nuance in the system for a setting such as this.

    That sounds like a very different game. ;)
