Someone posted a game jam on itch.io for games with the title including “renegade” The Renegade RPG Jam

The bundle is at $60 now, but will increase to $70 later. Based on the Amazon page the new MSRP is looking to be $60

They've been designing their own system for several years now and were almost ready to publish when Andrew McMeel announced they weren't going to publish rpgs anymore and dropped them. Play test docs are restricted to backers, but you can see the system being used in the latest season of the...

Saw some people claiming there were earlier now deleted videos where the leaker was bragging about how he developed contacts to get access to the cards. If that's what wotc/hasbro saw I'm not surprised if they came at him more aggressive than would have been expected from his current story of...

Catalyst games joins the publishers partnering with DriveThruRPG to allow the community to publish for games, in this case for all editions of Shadowrun...

This tweet sounds like it is his art

@RangerWickett you'll probably appreciate that I think the villain from the Zeitgeist campaign was really well done (kept vague for spoiler reasons). I think a big reason was the combination of 2 main factors. First that the first few times encountering him the party didn't quite know the...

Yes. They announced they were developing they own system in December of 2021. They've been releasing playtest previews to backers starting almost a year ago for a limited group and to backers as a whole last August. The streamed show has been using the new system since the latest system...

Basically I'm not seeing enough major changes that I like to think it's worth the cognitive load of making a complete change or the financial cost of a new set of books. I'll probably end up going through the SRD when it's updated and might mine for some houserules, but overall will probably...

It's locked to backers only, but one of the kickstarter updates stated they believe the contract was violated, but didn't have the financial resources to take legal action without jeopardizing being able to still put out the book. My understanding is it's a bit unusual compared to other...

I think mechanically that's correct, but flavorwise there's a big difference from a character shapeshifting to scout themselves vs sending a familiar to do the scouting for me

I can understand the design goal to simplify things and not require druid players to dig through the monster manual and pick out options for individual animal. But this seems an overcorrection and loses most of the interesting abilities that would be the reason for shapeshifting in the first place.

Dr. Emily Friedman at Auburn University has been doing research on various actual play shows. She just posted a survey for creators and viewers about their motivation and interests, and some questions about why people don't view shows if that applies to you. It's a pretty quick survey to complete.

I feel like it started off as orientalism - treating the monk as the weird foreign class because it was cool, but now is kind associated with D&D-type monks as well. Daniel Kwan in his Candlekeep Mysteries adventure "Book of Inner Alchemy" has a bit that explains ki as something that applies to...

Book came out just in time for my campaign. I had a few threads relating that I was wanting to figure out how to tie together (during world building players came up with an idea of a new deity appearing that is associated with more advanced tech that I've been wanting to do something to make it...

That’s all fine and all, but you’re responding to a statement I didn’t make You said you found the two statements incongruent and the obvious approach is was too comment immediately. My explanation was why I think they are compatible and reasonable that they thought at the time the obvious...

I actually think this is probably one of the comments that is more honest and less in need of spin if true. If they really were already revising things and thinking a new version was almost ready to release I can totally understand thinking it better to wait a bit and release it along with an...

From Nord Games - Spectacular Settlements and Dangerous Destinations have been good sources to randomly generate locations and are basically system neutral. I've used their Revenge of the Horde bestiary book a bit to make some nice variants of the standard enemy creatures. I have their other...

Since the original interview that caused the controversy you're referring to was talking about how it would be a good thing if the management of WOTC wasn't just white men, thinking it had anything to do with "is it ok for white guys to play D&D again" means you were wrong. And yes this second...

this is important context. He was specifically asked if there were non-white Non-males in leadership positions and the answer was that the diversity among the design team had expanded and people were beginning to take on design leadership which he expected to lead to more opportunity higher up too.
