    WoTC products, going downhill?

    Much, much better Star wars Saga is the best rpg thing to come along since 3e itself, bar none i think some dnd stuff is suffering, but dragon Magic and PHBII are great. Comp Champ[ kinda sucks, but that's just one book And MMV is a big improvement to me I hope the people behind Saga get to...

    Favorite Writing Team

    What's your favorite RPG writing team? I've noticed some authors work together a lot and produce something a better than either does alone. Sometimes one of them is awful on his own but does good stuff when working with someone else. My favs are Owen Stephens and Rodney Thompson. Owen has been...

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo no longer publishing Dungeon and Dragon

    But for some reaosn he answers on his own blog, where he can edit and delet posts rather than here where we can all discuss this on equal footing hE also now claims we've compared this to things like the Iraq war and eating people. i'm not attacking him personally, but his opinions suck and he...

    What do you prefer? Long home campaigns or Adventure Paths with an end?

    I play with the same people or bunches of peol for years but not all in the same campaign aN adventure path is perfect, because we can run characters for a year ro so, then make new ones. otherwize, Why would we need all the new character rules?

    Regular Wizards and sTar wars writer Owen stevens has a pretty negative opinion of this thread, and all of us http://owen-stephens.livejournal.com/27677.html

    Freaking Awesome 3rd Party Books That Don't Get Enough Praise

    Dragon Compendium. Paizo may be officl but their not WotC, so this should count. Great stuff, much of it later turned into more complicated rules by WotC. Stick with the roiginal. Shackled city comes a very close second Arcana Evolved. Ignore the earlier and confusingly names Arcana Unearthed...

    Best First Level Module for New Players

    Star wars SAGA cover?

    It's clearly a placeholder. it's square, and it doesn't list rodney (hi Rodney!) or Owen as authors Speaking of placeholders: http://www.amazon.com/Force-Unleashed-Campaign-Sterling-Hershey/dp/0786947438/ Looks like Owen and Rodney are continuing to work together, and bringing in more classic...

    Monster Manual IV thoughts?

    I hate, hate, hate the cover. I know that's supposed to be a dragon-thing bursting out of a hide wrapping, but it looks dumb to me. The worst WotC cover ever, by far. I love everything else. While other are complaining about 7 pages for lizardfolk, I'm enjoying a set of foes you can build a...

    WotC releases for March 2007: Cormyr, Magic Items, Star Wars RPG

    This I'm sure you're right about. About this, I'm sure you're no better informed than anyone else. I know both the authors, who have flatly refused to talk about the product at all. All we know is that Owen and Rodney wrote it, and we can guess Chris Perkins and/or Andy Collins is developing...

    What happened between green ronin and osseum

    To understand how Osseum could be responsible for taking so much money from so many people, you have to realize two things. First, some hiccups in the money supply are completely normal at the manufactuirer end. For them to get their money, the retailer has to pay the distributr who has to pay...

    A GAME OF THRONES = Dead!!!

    If GoO is going through bankruptcy, that may not be an option. If he has problems with the licensing of AGoT, that may not be an option. If he's trying to get investors to help save the company, that may not be an option. If his every waking hour is spent trying to save his company and come to a...

    New Star Wars RPG!

    Anyone who knows me knows I am a fan of Owen Stephens Star Wars work. He has more writing credits for d20 Star Wars than any other author. (I love his other work too, I almost keep the Green Ronin AGMG in a shrine) which is why I search for him at Amazon occasionally. Today, I found this link...
