Considering that apparently this survey was also, I think it is justified.

Considering I'm on an FB group (D&D for Old Dudes) that has 37,199 members and Boomers out number Gen Xers 2 to 1 in there, I doubt it.

This is based on 40 million players even though Hasbro had stated that 50 million have played. So I guess all of those are Boomers which would have been 10 million players which was the estimate put in (A)D&D ads in comic books and Dragon. So if that were the case, using proper definitions for...

The player population for D&D is cross-generational, with the bulk of respondents (48%) identifying as millennials, vs. 19% from Generation X and 33% from Generation Z (born between 1997 and 2012). This is so, so wrong. If they are going to forget a generation it shouldn't be the Boomers. Gen...

You do know when other cyberpunk games are asked "Who's your Daddy?" they have to answer with "Cyberpunk 2013". It was the first game and every other cyberpunk game is standing on its giant shoulders.

It is a very good ruleset and almost every professional review I've read says that it emulated the feel of the 5th Age really well and allowed the characters to focus on story instead of combat. But there were people who thought that it was the White Wolfing of AD&D with Nature and Demeanor on...

Somebody is making an attempt. Here is the Fate Deck: The-Fifth-Saga.

And I dealt with that. Anyway, how do you think they turn? Magically? Just because they don't formally say it applies thrust doesn't mean it doesn't do so. You have atmospheric and space movement reversed.

That first sentence just hurt my Physics teacher soul. There is no mass change to the ships so inertia is constant since inertia ∝mass. So much so, in fact, they are considered the same thing. And speed is not conserved, but momentum (mass x velocity) is. You are also confusing speed with...

Sounds like real physics. The only speed limit in space is c (the speed of light) with the low thrusts that those ships they would get nowhere near c in the course of a game (at 1g acceleration it would take almost a year to get to the speed of light). As for turning limits, apply a force at...

Balanced vs. Unbalanced Character Classes Some players insist that if character classes are not equally powerful (balanced), they can’t have fun. Others are more oriented toward interesting capabilities than class balance. I explored this topic in "A Question of Balance" That's all well and...

Didn't Mongoose try it with OGL Cyberpunk, Horror, and Steampunk? They failed miserably, requiring money for the OGL.

"Flying Fish?" Do they mean the Tradesman?

I twisted it a bit and would love to run it as a LARP: I'd been working on the 2nd Edition D&D module Reverse Dungeon. In it you play the eeevil monsters defending yourself from the heroes. Given that it was written almost 20 years ago, It probably a reaction to the success of the World of...

Yeah, popular opinion went against the Mystic class. :rolleyes:

Ouch, my debit card is hurting.

If I put players from a standard D&D fantasy world into a steampunk or technomagical world they get upset and the game dies quickly, especially when they are the players' precious epic level characters.

Even in my Dad's day there was a saying "You can tell the men from the boys by the price of their toys" and given I can see almost $3000 in diecast metal planes and probably more than that in roleplaying game books I know which side I'm on.

Dang, beat me to it.

I don't need POD copies of either as the originals are both on my book shelf.
