    What do YOU plan on doing with Daggerheart?

    Exactly. There are 18 ancestries with 2 traits each. If you follow the top/bottom restriction that’s 324 possible combinations with those traits alone. Actually tweaking what’s there with slight trait changes also further breaks things wide open. To say nothing of actually homebrewing new traits...

    Critical Role Announces Age of Umbra Daggerheart Campaign, Starting May 29th

    I am hopeful that at least carries through to the next campaign. So much wasted time doing nothing.

    D&D 5E (2014) Amazon US book sales rank.

    The highest rank I saw Daggerheart was 75. No idea if it ever got higher than that.

    Goodman Games: Our Efforts Have Been Mischaracterized

    You can't shake hands with the devil and come away clean. I don't think Goodman is a bigot, but he clearly has no problem working with bigots. That's a "never buy or use another product from them ever again" level problem for me.

    Daggerheart General Thread [+]

    That's fair. But in my experience all RPGs involve lots of tedious planning, which is why I love flashbacks. You could also go the other way and make planning a mini game. A skill challenge, basically. Give the PCs so many "rounds" to plan and make rolls to build up resources etc before...

    Daggerheart General Thread [+]

    Daggerheart is now sold out on Amazon. At least sold out from Amazon itself. And the sharks are already swimming with $70 core sets and $50 sets with $20 shipping.

    That's a great post by the way. Yours and the one you linked to. How would you do flashbacks in Daggerheart? I'm not sure just using only stress would work well. Maybe a combo of hope and stress. Maybe 0 stress, 1 stress, and 2 stress or 1 hope? You gain a hope on about 54% of rolls and...

    Judges Guild Makes Statement About Goodman Controversy [Updated]

    They are somehow looking worse and worse with each passing day.

    Goodman Games: Our Efforts Have Been Mischaracterized

    Yeah, never underestimate the coping skills, justification skills, laziness, stupidity, and lack of empathy of humans.

    Goodman Games: Our Efforts Have Been Mischaracterized

    Exactly. His expressed views are solidly inclusion and acceptance. He’s betraying those stated values by working with Bledsaw. He’s alienating his fans who believe in those values by working with Bledsaw. But, by working with Bledsaw he’s gaining new fans…who despise inclusion and acceptance...

    Goodman Games Revives Relationship With Anti-Semitic Publisher For New City State Kickstarter [UPDATED]

    Good question. Only Joseph Goodman or one of his inner circle can answer that. But it clearly has nothing to do with preservation or bringing back a classic for a new generation. Neither of which he's actually doing with this project.

    Goodman Games Revives Relationship With Anti-Semitic Publisher For New City State Kickstarter [UPDATED]

    Spot on. This whole idea of somehow "preserving art" is also completely beside the point in regards to this project as it will not actually contain a reprint of the original. It's an entirely new, derivative work based on IP owned by a Holocaust-denying bigot. It's the equivalent to arguing that...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    That's the worst. "I had to put up with all that unfairness and I turned out all right!" If you want others to suffer because you suffered, you absolutely did not turn out all right.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Right. It's a daily struggle. The worst is having to obey all the stupid rules that keep things unfair. Don’t make stupid, unfair rules and I wouldn’t have a hard time following them.

    Goodman Games Revives Relationship With Anti-Semitic Publisher For New City State Kickstarter [UPDATED]

    That has got to be the weakest sauce I've seen surrounding any of this. "Things change"? You get how that doesn't make any of this any better in any way, right? Something convinced Goodman to go back on his promise to never work with a Holocaust-denying bigot. So something was convincing...

    AD&D/OSRIC: How did initiative work?

    AD&D initiative according to the PHB was simple 1d6 side-based initiative. It only became a nightmare if you tried to follow every subsequent book and magazine article that fiddled with the system and added mountains of caveats. Like, for example, the ridiculous ADDICT PDF already posted. It's...
