I appreciate the active discourse and response. My knowledge of AD&D is very limited. I recently had the good fortune to be given some old modules and supplements. Around the same time, I became more aware of OSRIC. I imagine that surprised and initiative might not be too terrible once I got...

At first, I thought "doesn't seem so bad." Then, I realized that I was on page 2 of 20.

I've read through some of the information about OSRIC on Backerkit. The following descriptions stood out to me: "...2. Adding Encounter Distance to the combat sequence, per AD&D rules. Not precisely the same method -- the AD&D rules for encounter distance and especially how they interact with...

Something that is often overlooked is command & control. Being able to communicate and coordinate attacks via Sending Stones (or something similar) can open up a lot of tactical options. Even without magic, a lot of simple things like colored smoke or a trumpet can be used to communicate with...

From the DM side of things, a combination of #3 and #5 work well against over-eager PCs. Give up the center to a charging PC and lead them into double envelopment. Whether or not the game uses Facing Rules has some influence on how effective such tactics may be, but being surrounded and...

If I misunderstood or misattributed your specific statement, then I apologize that I did so.

I would agree that not believing Goodman is not equivalent to believing Bledsaw. However, using the Bledsaw statement as the basis upon which to judge that Goodman should not be believed (or that Goodman should be believed less) indicates that value is being placed upon Bledsaw's statement. I...

Could be different parts of the contract. Hard to say without seeing the actual contract.

See my above post. I definitely agree that it is a questionable decision to sign something of that nature. Maybe there is some morally-questionable reason on the part of Goodman. Factually, I cannot say 100% whether there is or not. However, I can verify the existence of one-sided NDAs...

Below will be some examples. The examples are just from this thread; I can sift through the other threads if you honestly want me to do so, but that will take some time. Note that, in most cases, I have not directly quoted the posters because I do not want to be bated into some accusation that...

That's a lot of buzzwords, but none of them apply to me. There are people who have listed all the negatives about Bledsaw but then also have expressed that he should be believed over other conflicting statements. At no point have I shown a lack of courage -even when you were trying to bate me...

Valid points and an understandable point of view. What's odd to me is that the community has expressed that Bledsaw is a crooked businessman who has jipped people out of money while also engaging in a glutinous buffet of bigotry, but now he is also held up as an avatar of honesty who should be...

I can agree that signing such an agreement may have been a poor decision. On the other hand, I do not think it is a unique thing that someone signs or agrees to something without taking the time to fully understand it.

@The Firebird is correct though. A 2020 statement about not having plans is not contradicted by a statement made in 2022. If Joseph Goodman is capable of communicating in a way that occurs in non-euclidean time, that has not yet been revealed in the YouTube statements.

All of that is possible. Depends on the details of the contract and the clause. In the past, I was asked to sign NDAs related to my former career. Legally, I could be held liable for breaking the NDAs. However, the employer did not share the same liability. Oddly, that meant that -even in a...

"The contracts have confidentiality clauses so I’m quite limited in what I can say. But in short…the information you emailed about is incorrect. I think it’s best if Goodman Games speaks for what Goodman Games is doing. And Goodman Games is definitely not doing Dungeoneer." ~quoted from what was...

Depends upon the game and the in-game time period. However, FM 7-8 is a good place to start. "The mission of the infantry is to close with the enemy by means of fire and maneuver to defeat or capture him, or to repel his assault by fire, close combat, and counterattack."

Misery loves company. Some people have the attitude that they shouldn't be alone in ruin and will take people down with them -especially those who are perceived to have slighted the perpetrator. 🤷‍♂️ Successfully slaying a perceived "liberal game company" by turning the "woke" mob against itself.

I posted in the other thread before I saw this one. Post in thread 'Goodman Games Revives Relationship With Anti-Semitic Publisher For New City State Kickstarter [UPDATED]' Goodman Games Revives Relationship With Anti-Semitic Publisher For New City State Kickstarter [UPDATED] "According to...

According to the Bledsaw Facebook statement, he was planning to work with Jennell Jaquays (had she not passed). I'm not sure that I know what to think about that or how that would have been perceived by the community had it actually happened. Supposedly, the GG version would have happened...
