    Unearthed Arcana New Unearthed Arcana: Rune Knight, Swarmkeeper, The Revived

    That's what I mean. Runes on weapons would be mostly attack/offence oriented, armour mostly personal or shareable buff style effects and shields mostly defensive type effects. Obviously some overlap would likely occur (or need to occur), but it would offer a little variety and nuance both in...

    Unearthed Arcana New Unearthed Arcana: Rune Knight, Swarmkeeper, The Revived

    I do like the Rune Knight, though I would prefer the Rune's abilities effects be specific to what type of item they were "attached" to (offers a little incentive and flavor to change things up a bit, perhaps allowing the use of the same rune on two items for a more flavorful concept). I mean...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana: Cleric, Druid, Wizard Options

    So a prestige class, basically. ;)

    D&D 5E (2014) New Eberron Book Details From WotC

    Sounds like Eberron fans are in for a helluva treat. Very nice. Despise Eberron myself, so this'll be a hard pass, but for those that enjoy it, this'll be awesome. :D

    D&D General A Chat With 'Solasta' 5E Video Game Developers

    Mmm. Based on the SRD and not the PHB has just massively reduced my interest. I don't begrudge them that, I'm sure it was a pragmatic choice. I'll keep my eyes on this, but only in passing.

    Pathfinder 2E It's Finally Here! The Pathfinder 2E Review

    Appreciate the review. I felt PF2E was not going to be a system I'd enjoy, and this certainly confirms that.

    WotC Baldur's Gate III Announced; Powered by D&D 5E

    It's a pre-rendered trailer...in no way remotely capable of determining if this is better or worse than any game as of yet. Now if you meant the trailer itself is better than the grand sum of Sword Coast Legends....well then yes, definitely. ;) That said...I am...hesitant about this...

    WotC New WotC Game Studio Headed By Bioware's James Ohlen

    I really hope it's not Baldur's Gate III. That story ended in Throne of Bhaal. I have no qualms if they use the Baldur's Gate name, but lose the 'III'. Even if it deals with the ramifications of the Bhaalspawn saga, it should not be labeled the third BG game. Use the Baldur's Gate title...

    WotC New WotC Game Studio Headed By Bioware's James Ohlen

    The market is plenty ready for a 5e D&D game. Hell, I've been waiting for one since the horrid Sword Coast Legends (which was advertised as 5e, but was barely D&D, let alone 5e). It's been 5 years since it died ignominiously and took nSpace down with it...time to give it a proper go. I tried...

    WotC Considering NPC Stat Format Change

    It's change for the sake of change. It's idiotic. It makes it more difficult to use, not less. Having the stats in quick, abbreviated form is infinitely more useful...you can get the basics with a quick glance. With this proposed change, there's a very strong likelihood of it killing the...

    First Impressions – Guildmasters Guide to Ravnica

    My (admittedly cynical) take is that they left out a ton of world-building to leave the ability to say "Want to learn more about Ravnica? Then we have this lovely little product over here called Magic the Gathering that just so happens to have a set out about Ravnica. Feel free to spend some...

    D&D 5E (2014) ForgedAnvil D&D 5E Character Generator

    Is there any place in the sheet to actually specify a Warlock pact? *Edit: nm...damn my eyes.

    Ravnica: Is This The New D&D Setting? [UPDATED & CONFIRMED!]

    They crossed the streams...in actual, physical printed product. *shrug* I won't buy it, and it seems every molecule in my body hasn't exploded at the speed of light....good for those wanting this though, so awesome for them. :)

    Bulmahn on Pathfinder 2's Goblin Ancestry

    Not a fan of them (or any 'monster' race) as a core option, but as playtest material, sure. 'Drizzt Syndrome' has always been a sort of tangential thing...but including monster races as core will only up that. I mean, the concept of the occasionally non-stereotypical member of the monster...

    Pathfinder 2E's New Death & Dying Rules; More on Resonance

    Frankly, I'll likely just ignore Resonance altogether (how easy/difficult that will be depends, I suspect, mostly on how integrated it is in the rules overall). Much like I completely ignore Attunement in 5e. I find the concept for "typical" magic items absurd. Relics/artifacts...now that is...

    Do We Still Need "Oriental Adventures"?

    Really?? Fantasy fiction is being debated for it's cultural value? Are you kidding? It's friggin' fantasy. Not reality. Sure, it takes a little flavor from reality, but only the tiniest fraction of its surface. Anyone expecting works of this nature to show some kind of altruistic reverence...

    Xanathar's Guide to Everything's Samurai Subclass

    While I'm glad WotC is visiting some of their Oriental Adventures classes of previous editions, frankly the DM's Guild product Heroes of the Orient achieves a far superior approach. WotC's approach is simpler, and likely to be organized play legal if that's your thing, and that's great, but if...

    D&D Reader App Coming This Fall? [UPDATED]

    I'll stick to the books and continue to politely ignore most attempts by WotC to embrace technology.

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder:Kingmaker isometric CRPG

    I have little confidence in this. It's an untested developer in this area (granted the people involved do have quite the pedigree in designing RPGs, even if they are all over 10+ years past). The last time this happened, we got Sword Coast Legends (and that had full publisher and development...
