    Here's What's Available For Free RPG Day

    How many stores will be able to allow face-to-face games on July 25th due to Covid-19? Also, stores in my region of Canada (Montreal) haven't participated in the last two years. They have to pay to get the box of free stuff and the sales of rpgs aren't so good anymore. You have a typo: «what...

    D&D General How much dice do you own?

    The edges of my d20 became so rounded it didn't stop rolling until it fell from the table.

    D&D 5E (2014) Hypothetical 50th Anniversary Core Rulebooks

    I don't agree that it will be a 5e product for the 50th anniversary. Making 6e would spoil the mystery since they would have to announce it two years in advance. I voted no new books. Certainty : A limited edition gold set of polyhedral dice. A 50th pencil distributed in flgs. An Adventure...

    D&D 5E (2014) Remove feats and replace as magic items

    In editions prior to 3e characters mostly gained power via magic items. We often described our character by what items they had, the same way players described their 3e+ characters with feats. Class Talents were few are far between. ASI were done by finding Tomes of [Attribute], Wizards were...

    D&D General How much dice do you own?

    Tricky question. I voted 50-100. Could be more. I'm not compulsive on dice. I am with D&D miniatures. One can never have enough D&D minis. Make a poll with that! Just RPG dice I would say I own 5-6 polyhedral dice sets. I own a set of FFG narrative dice and X-Wing icon dice. I also own lots of...

    D&D 5E (2014) Does anyone else suffers from setting paralysis?

    The other option is to create with the help of the players a strong story concept of the type of campaign that will motivate you. After that choose a setting(s) that fits the concept. Example: During the 2e era we had this idea of ships that could skim10 feet over desert sand. We decided the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Does anyone else suffers from setting paralysis?

    Just create your own home-brew setting. Start small with an adventure. Don't need to write an encyclopedia to get the dice rolling. Create and fill the regions as you go along using the ideas your players bring to the table or ideas that pop in you head while you DM.

    Best RPG star sector

    Starfire. It does have a detailed setting. I play the hex game once or twice a year with a house roule version of 2e.

    D&D General DM Pause?

    One of the players has offered to do a one-shot of the latest edition of Dark Eye. He plays it with another group. Really looking forward to play and try this system.

    D&D General DM Pause?

    Only having sound requires more concentration to discern who is talking. It is more demanding physicaly I find.

    D&D General DM Pause?

    I usually don't take breaks. I just switch rpgs for a while. I believe it is because we play using Skype because of Covid. I miss the face to face interaction.

    D&D General DM Pause?

    How any times in a year do you take as step back from the DM chair to recharge your batteries and play instead? I'm taking the month of June off. My campaign is starting to get on my nerves. Best to take a step back and return to it later.

    D&D 5E (2014) Musings on the likelihood of future products

    The bones tell me that Spelljammer as an adventure book with rules for the ships at the back, similar to Ghost of Saltmarsh, is very likely.

    Realistic Consequences vs Gameplay

    They didn't kill the king or spill his blood. I wouldn't kill them. But I would send them at a forced labor work camp for x number of months. Give the players temporary NPCs (not new characters) to play with. Let them recover their PCs after the period has passed. It's up to you if you want to...
