    Lankhmar Box Set for Dungeon Crawl Classics!

    Nope, sure not June. Apparently they make good use of their time when they feel like it. The main book is far enough along that they can hand out some print copies. They had time to go ahead and start another KS project and respond to some questions there today. It's just funny that with all...

    Lankhmar Box Set for Dungeon Crawl Classics!

    The only KS I've done with Goodman Games isn't impressing me so far. The "How to Write Adventures That Don't Suck" book was on sale at GaryCon, but the backers haven't gotten pdf copies yet or an explanation about what's going on.

    RPG Crowdfunding News 036: Dusk City Outlaws, Cold Shadows, Fear’s Sharp Little Needles, Wearing the

    I'd really encourage anyone on the fence about Dusk City Outlaws to check out some of the actual play stuff that's out there. Penny Arcade's Twitch and Saving Throw both have some good stuff showing how the game runs. I'm in for the pdf level already. Since I pretty much only run online now...

    Call of Cthulhu's Sandy Petersen Sues Paypal Over Withheld Funds [UPDATED]

    Looking at the court filing, fraud (civil or criminal) doesn't enter into this situation. Looking at the Causes of Action, we have: Conversion -- Basically holding on to something and acting like it's your's when it isn't. Normally this would be handled by the court forcing you to give the...

    Take Your D&D Adventures Into The Realms Of Middle-earth

    It looks like it's set in the time just after The Hobbit, so the official stuff would have you away from the "main adventures" due to timing. What you do on your own would be up to you, of course.

    WotC Being Sued By Magic: the Gathering Judges

    I wonder if these guys declared the cash value of their perks as income on their taxes. And yes, I've actually had to do that before.

    The Disclaimer from OUT OF THE ABYSS

    You may be playing 4e. :D (Not edition warring. All in good fun.)

    A New Kickstarter From Monte Cook Games!

    I think most successful game companies are one or two bad product releases away from being unsuccessful game companies. When you do a Kickstarter, you know people want what you're making and you have enough money to make it without losing your house.

    Unearthed Arcana Psionics Hits Unearthed Arcana

    Mind Thrust - How did Dex ever come up for this? "Discipline attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier" just like a wizard using Int + proficiency for attacking with a "Ray of ..." spell.

    [UPDATED] Sean K Reynolds just rehired by WotC

    Sure, they just usually use the phrase, "...on an as-needed basis."

    D&D 5E (2014) Dungeons and Dragons and the RPG Stigma

    I haven't had any real trouble, but I work hard to keep it that way. I'm a gamer and a pro-wrestling fan. It's pretty rare I can carry on a conversation regarding either, without wondering about my employment. My immediate supervisors over the years have always been happy to accept me as the...

    D&D Starter Set at Walmart

    I'm suspicious of this. I worked at Walmart for two years and I don't ever remember seeing the toy aisles that orderly.

    D&D 5E (2014) Did The Finished 5th Edition Change Anyone's Mind?

    I was really on the fence until I saw the DMG. I can't point to just one thing in it, but that was what finally tipped the scale.

    7 Years of D&D Stories? And a "Big Reveal" Coming?

    I've been gone for a while. Is Mike Mearls ruining everything again? :D

    D&D 5E (2014) I Need Help Finding my EVIL

    To start, if you haven't read Play Dirty by John Wick, I certainly recommend it. A revised version, as well as a second volume, should be out soon-ish. Second, you need to remember that it's your job. You have to be the bad guys, because it's the DM's job. Your players, I assume, want to be...

    D&D 5E (2014) SUNBEAN spell affects the DROW ?

    Any chance we could cut somebody a little slack as this may not be their primary language?

    Jurassic World Official Super Bowl TV Spot

    Think of how short the movies would be if they did listen. ========== OPENING CREDITS REASONABLE PERSON: Growing our own dinosaurs is probably a bad idea. PERSON WITH MONEY: You know, I think you're right. END CREDITS ========== Some very slight modification of those two lines of...

    Evolution in a World of Fantasy

    I didn't say they were nice or that it was a genetic shift. I said it doesn't take very long to get interesting, noticeable changes. The idea of nuisance creatures rapidly adapting to their surroundings, by learning or otherwise, seemed fun and appropriate for a game. But if charting millions...
