    What Game Did You Leave D&D For?

    We dropped D&D 3.5 for Pathfinder 1e until it ended, Starfinder until we agreed to never again, and now Warhammer 4e and next up Zweihander. I don't suspect we will ever play D&D again. It does not seem to be our kind of game. Which fine. There are a million others.

    What are you reading this year 2020?

    My reasons for wanting to read them were that I never played WFRP before, or the wargames, or the videos games. I only knew the lore from the WFRP Core book. Seeing as I was about to run the game, I wanted to have all the lore in my back pocket, know the world off the top of my head to properly...

    What are you reading this year 2020?

    More C.J. Cherryh always. I am in the middle of re-reading Cyteen. I am going to read a bunch of Dune this year in prep of the "Most Anticipated Game" I am being a bit ridiculous about re-reading dune. I don't have a copy of the first book and have a thing about buying a new copy of a book that...

    I'll just continue playing the old WEG rules, blissfully unaware.

    'DC Universe All Star Games' Is A New RPG Show Featuring Freddie Prinze Jr and Sam Witwer

    I cannot stand listening or watching live play. I've tried. It's not for me but I recognize that all this visibility is good for the hobby as a whole. I may take a peak at this though because the old DC was my first RPG, and what a great system! Maybe if this gets traction we could get a reprint...

    I don't think that explains a huge increase in the price used books.

    Paizo Paizo Product Roundup: February

    Was dooped. Yeah one of the audiobooks was presented as the book, the way they edited the photo to be the shape of the AP and gave no info on it other than the author of the AP. I'm getting my money back. My table and I have been joking about what a niche scam this is. What is happening to the...

    Paizo Paizo Product Roundup: February

    D&D General Worlds of Design: A Question of Balance

    If playing a game where you make a character, I always recommend starting with concept, then build to fulfill that concept, whether its 'powerful' or not. For me, inhabiting an interesting character is more important than being just as useful as everyone else. I like mechanics where casting a...

    Explore Far Distant Worlds in the Traveller Core Rulebook

    My table has already gone one round with Traveller and we are going back for more with the epic Pirates of Drinax. One thing I have always wanted to play is Zozer's Orbital setting for low TL, which included things like rotational gravity aboard ships and a system for simulating orbital...

    WFRP Release Updates for 2020

    I cannot remember what has been delayed, meaning; when there was a set date and then that date has been pushed back. To my recollection, release dates are left consistently vague instead. It has been frustrating to some. I am perfecftly capable of generating my own matierals for the game. I...

    WFRP Release Updates for 2020

    My table has been playing non-stop sense release but we long ago ran out of printed material for this edition. I have been running Lure of the Liche Lord from second edition. We are waiting for more of the Enemy Within to be released before diving in. We will be switching to Zweihander rules for...

    ICv2's Latest Quarterly Chart: D&D Top, But PF2 Is Strong

    Honestly, I think d20 modern does a better job than starfinder still. Though Starfinders space combat is a little better. Easily adaptable to any other d20 game I think. We moved to Mongoose Travaller instead, and while not d20, it gives you all the crunch Starfinder felt like it lacked.

    ICv2's Latest Quarterly Chart: D&D Top, But PF2 Is Strong

    My two tables put a lot of effort into Starfinder but both groups found, they just didn't like it. I am not suprised by the drop off.
