    Simply6 Simply6 Light RPG Now On Amazon

    Thanks Morrus! I love this game. It's easy. It's clean. It's great for newbies, but old-school gamers will appreciate the potential for house rules and customization. Soon, I will use it for immersive/narrative games with my veteran group. I have a titanic library of "rules-lite" rpgs on...

    D&D 5E (2014) That Eberron Cover Is Just A Placeholder

    Please... Everyone... Take a closer look? The resolution of the art is different. It is a low-res image. The cover art is actually pretty good (if it had been in a higher resolution). Shadows, skin tone, detail... They are all of a "lower" quality than what we have grown accustomed to...

    D&D 3.x Jonathan Tweet: My Life with the Open Gaming License

    Thank you for the cool article, Maestro! Thanks also for 13th Age... It's one of my favorite RPGs. I love how the core book included all the character rules, plenty of monsters, loads of treasure, a great campaign world, excellent maps, innovative game mechanics, and an introductory...

    D&D 5E (2014) The Final Announcement from The Descent Live Stream: Eberron Hardcover

    Nope. I don't. But please don't misuse the term "legitimate grievance" as a term in this discussion. A legitimate grievance would be something like liability for "severe bodily injury," "malpractice," or "sexual harassment". This is an artistic difference of opinion. "I enjoy playing in...

    There are a lot of people posting opinions about this topic. I am not interested in their opinions. I think this will be a good book. I will buy this book. - Dr. Bull

    Epic Monsters: Fenrir (5E)

    I REALLY don't want to be the fly in the ointment here, but... Wasn't this nefarious apocalyptic adversary known as "Fenris Wolf" instead of "Fenrir Wolf"? I would appreciate education on this subject... Teach me! - Dr. Bull

    A Guide to RPG Freelance Rates: Part 1 (Writing and Editing)

    Yup. You're correct. I used to edit for Troll Lord Games, but I could not keep up with all the freelance writers who didn't know how to write. DM's Guild is a different venue. I'm honored to have received a directly reply from you. I've really enjoyed reading WOIN!

    "Your worth it. " ... Seriously? "You're worth it." I apologize for the snark. I'm a jerk. It won't happen again.

    A Guide to RPG Freelance Rates: Part 1 (Writing and Editing)

    Can I make a request of all of the freelance writers out there? Can you please make sure that you have studied how to write BEFORE you publish? Take a few composition classes at the local community college, for goodness sake! Grammar is important. Clarity is important. I've seen some...

    Yep. Larry was one of my favorite authors. I am very sorry to hear of his passing. Nyarlathotep is amazing. Larry was an excellent human being. - Dr. Bull

    Comic-book Author Jim Zub On D&D's Surge In Recent Years

    Excellent cultural analysis. 'Nuff said! 5th edition and Jim Zub both "nailed it". Right place. Right time. Good system. Good audience. Good marketing... All in all, a perfect storm of culture and genius. 5e is now (and will remain) the gold standard rpg for a LONG time. (However, I...

    Odyssey of the Dragonlords Player's Guide is Free!

    I just finished reading this PDF. It will make for an excellent setting... The writing is very clear and the art is fantastic. I think there is a lot of potential with this setting! I've also enjoyed the little Easter Eggs that I've found so far: 1. Volkan, God of the Forges (wise...

    Here Are The Most Popular D&D Feats (War Caster Leads The Pack!)

    In D&D and in the real world, getting surprised by an enemy is one of the worst things that can happen. Imagine the difference between getting caught asleep in your bedroll vs. having your shield up and your weapon drawn... As a regular practice, all of my characters have proficiency in...

    Where Have All the Gamers Gone?

    This is an interesting line of discussion, but I would like to caution everyone who has read this far in the chain... Reflecting upon social changes consistently results in over-generalized statements about politics, social-economics, philosophical ideology, etc. From my perspective, I think...

    Pages From The Upcoming Nautical D&D Book!

    Mark B: Hilarious! I wonder what the Challenge Rating for 20+ apple turnovers might be? Do they get Lair Actions? Maybe the flaked crust can cause choking damage? Perhaps they spin attack (the feared Turnover Maneuver) and then spill molten apple on their victims? Could that cause...
