What a great week with many winners being kickstarted. Lightraiders and Mansters especially both look amazing to me. Unique RPGs obviously created with real passion.

Dungeons & Dragons 5E gets a book of adventures to kick off a campaign of various low levels and a module of three Halloween adventures. Old school D&D gets many new adventures including a solo adventure and one for one cleric, an entire valley setting of dinosaur adventure, and a supplement all...

Harn interview This might help some, but yes the level of detail is hard to completely explain in a short web page.

Vaesen gets a book of five new mystery adventures, HârnWorld gets a kingdom of the dwarves, and Delta Green a new horror adventure. Meanwhile, out in space, Traveller 2300AD gets a big box set adventure and transformable robots travel to Earth in the 80s to battle it out. Pregenerated character...

I don't think it is available yet to everyone, but The Black Madonna is being updated to 4E. Set in southern Poland, adventure and more detailed setting. From the kickstarter: We're happy to announce that the new version of the classic supplement The Black Madonna, reworked and updated for 4th...

Fever Swamp will be a real winner. Glad to see an updated enhanced version.

Dungeons & Dragons 5E gets 1,000 new and revised spells. That seems like a large number to me, but maybe the core rules don’t have enough. There are also more rules like new classes and two dozen map tiles including a wizard dueling room which would go well in DCC RPG or Academies of the Arcane...

Demogorgon drained 1d4 levels with each tentacle hit in AD&D 1E. Truly scary.

Demogorgon is on my mine (standard) in full color and with two heads and tentacle arms. I really like the art. Or just get both eventually I suppose.

The world of Glorantha gets a book on cults that also works with the various Cults of RuneQuest books. Additional domain building is available for Pathfinder. Dungeons & Dragons 5E sees a lot of support: NPCs, pawns, GM screen, dice, art and lore book, mug and coasters, and more. Finally, lots...

When the Wolf Comes is an new RPG written by Ian Stuart Sharpe, creator of the Vikingverse. His RPG uses the Shadow of the Demon Lord rules and mixes Norse myth and magic with technology. Ian was kind enough to talk to me about his new RPG. Charles Dunwoody (CD): Thanks for talking with me...

HârnWorld and Basic Roleplaying are both in print again in full color hardbacks. Combine both for a setting and fantasy rules that provide fantastic magical elements with an edge of realism. The Chronicle of the Throne of Thorns gets its final sixth adventure. Dungeons & Dragons 5E gets more...

If you use milestones I'd highly recommend you tie them to the PCs' goals or if they don't have any then use the driving purpose of the adventure. The players are more likely to go after those things that generate XP and the more specific you are the easier it will be for them to see the best...

I thought the same thing about Rifts. And Lilliputian does look interesting. Exalted Funeral puts out some interesting books.

I'm going to assume you're playing D&D 5E which awards XP for killing monsters. You can change this by awarding very little XP for killing monsters. This assumes the players are open to a game about more than killing monsters of course. In TSR D&D the PCs got 1 XP for each gold piece hauled...

Dungeons & Dragons 5E gets a hardcover adventure path and more movie settings for Everyday Heroes. Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG gets massive character sheets and there is a new sci-fi setting for the Year Zero System. Players can travel the universe as dinosaur rangers or explore a massive ocean...

@patrakis I hope you post here about how the campaign goes.

I'd need some more details on what that mindset means to you. But I have seen players struggle with the idea that they can do more than what is on the character sheet. I've seen players look down at the character sheet looking for a solution to any problem and not getting into the character and...
