    D&D 4E Edition Experience - Did/Do You Play 4th Edition D&D? How Was/Is it?

    Couldn't find a response that matched my position but the closest was "I played it and remember liking it." I loved 4e. It brought me back to D&D (and Dark Sun no less) after a long hiatus from B/X, 1e and 2e. I was fortunate to stumble into a group that ended up being one of the high points of...

    Which edition of Star Wars RPG are you currently interested in?

    I voted for several, WEG editions being my fave but I’ve played FFG’s version a few times and am currently prepping a EotE campaign for my kids.

    Game App Recommendations

    EDIT: saw this is limited to Android or iOS. Still, I’d recommend a Switch if you travel a lot. Do you have a Switch? I’d recommend Darkest Dungeons with all the DLCs. DD is also on Steam but it really stood out when played on Switch.

    The mandalorian [Spoilers]

    So caught up on Eps 6 and 7 over the holidays. Ep 6 was great but Ep 7 hit it out of the park (IMHO). Liked Ep 6 for how the mercs sized each other up and how bad ass they were (well at least Burg and Mando). The betrayal was expected but I thought it was going to only be about Baby Yoda - so...

    The Witcher (Spoilers)

    Binged on the series over two days. I quite liked it. Cavill plays a convincing Geralt and Yennefer is a great character. Ciri's arc so far was the weakest, but the actress seems good. The thing I liked the most was the magic. It seems "believable" in that there are rules to be obeyed but left...

    Rise of Skywalker: The Seen It/Spoilers Thread

    Saw the movie over the weekend. My vote was "Average". The good parts: Movie was beautiful to watch. One of the most emotional scenes (I didn't expect) was seeing Chewie's reaction to Leia's passing. Teared up on that one. Liked Luke's and Han's cameos. Action was (as usual) top notch. Liked...

    The mandalorian [Spoilers]

    This was my opinion about this Episode, pretty much. There were a few gems, but overall I thought it was a wasted opportunity. The season is only 8 episodes long, so each one counts. Plus, it was set in Tatoonine! They could have done SO MUCH there. Like the stormtrooper helmets on pikes. A...

    Haven't watched it. What's it about? What's interesting about it? I've been watching the Pixar Shorts. They're pretty good.

    The mandalorian [Spoilers]

    Really enjoyed Ep4. It's a "lull" from the main story arc (Baby Yoda), kinda, but it was refreshing. Liked the introduction and interactions with the Rebel Shock Trooper. Hope their paths cross again. Yes, more world building on the culture of the Mandalore. I like how they approach it subtly...

    Cubicle 7 No Longer Producing The One Ring and Adventures in Middle Earth

    I am in utter shock. I just got into TOR 1e when they had an earlier sale this year. I read the core books (and Companion Guide) from cover-to-cover - something I haven’t done since I first began role-playing. they captured the books perfectly. And as a 4e D&D fan, offered some great ideas on...

    The mandalorian [Spoilers]

    That's how I took it. It's obvious they don't like each other necessarily but "our survival is our strength". Some things I was thinking: They're hiding, not wanting to show their numbers, and it was caused by the Empire. But they're gone now - so now what? They mention the Great Purge - was...

    The Mandalorian makes me want to play Star Wars again

    Does Saga have a particular sourcebook on space battles? I have the core and one other (Galaxy of Intrigue I think) and wouldn’t mind picking up another.

    So, I found another gem here: Star Wars: Resistance. Completely forgot that was out. So, my line up to catch up on SW is: Clone Wars Rebels Resistance Have I missed anything? What’s the best sequence to watch them? Have a lot of catching up to do this holiday!

    The mandalorian [Spoilers]

    Nay. Yes, Baby Yoda is a big deal. But the show should focus on the Mandalorian. One thing I’m really enjoying is how they are fleshing out the culture of the Mandalore. I’m betting this story arc will be resolved by the end of Season 1 (though leave open possible continuations). I really hope...

    There is Resume button. Is that the progress bar folks are requesting (didn’t notice if it was gone actually)?

    The mandalorian [Spoilers]

    I really liked the world building in Ep3 - learning more of the Mandalores, how they’re intentionally hiding and how they’re rebuilding their culture (and numbers)? What’s the Great Purge all about anyway? This is the way.

    Tales from the Edge of the Empire

    Good stuff. I'm (slowly) building up my Bounty Hunter campaign for my kids using FFG EotE rules. Any stuff on bounty hunting?

    I do. I found Skill Challenges from 4e D&D to work really well with the idea.

    I'm liking the service. I was about to purchase the entire series of Rebels, but now they're all available. I never finished Clone Wars (when it was on Netflix) so I intend to finish them. Solo isn't available on Disney+ yet, due to licensing agreement with Netflix. For the price (I got the...
