    What is the single best fantasy novel of all time?

    Yep, exactly: one book, forced by a publisher into smaller pieces due to length and printing expense. Available today as one book.

    What is the single best fantasy novel of all time?

    The Lord of the Rings. Not even a question for me.

    OSR How do you run your combat? (B/X, BECMI, OSR)

    Side-based or individual initiative? Player sequence or action (shoot, move, melee, spell) sequence? Back in the day I ran B/X and 1E with side-based initiative, action-sequence combat ... more or less as written in the Moldvay Basic book. When 3E came out, I was taken with cyclic individual...

    There are movies after Aliens? I think you've been huffing your moldy copy of Moldvay too much.

    Dolmenwood ks has over 7000 followers

    Dunce cone, or wizard hat? Or Cone of Dunshire? Or is the Cone of Dolmenwood like The One Ring? It'll make it -- it's what, less than a week into a four-week campaign? I'm guessing $2-3M at end.

    Other D&D Variant Dolmenwood: An Interview with Gavin Norman

    This was so pretty, and the ideas so well executed, I couldn't not back it.

    Record Attendance at Gen Con 2023

    That's crazy. I'd love to go to GenCon. But I don't handle crowds well, so this screams "stay away!"

    Moria Campaign Module Coming for TOR2e and LotR 5e

    SQUEEEE! I wants it, precious. MORIA! Wonder of the Northern World. The Dwarves delved too greedily and too deep. I hope it makes it before awakening shadow and flame, as TOR 1E folded just before delivering Moria.

    An answer to a question no one asked? A Wonka origin movie.

    So by extension, 90% of past things are crap (because they were new things). Which explains Hollywood on repeat, because only 81% of new old things are crap. Cycle that enough times and the worst Hollywood crapfest has more or less even odds to be a mega-blockbuster after about six generations.

    Aliens: Yes Or No?

    Dunno. Odds are there is certainly life out there, and most probably intelligent life. Visit here? Pffft. A species intelligent enough to solve interstellar travel would not be coming here to lurk in the shadows.

    Summon: MTG Experts!

    Right? I mean, I'd like to get all nine (I have 4 already from pre-release & Jumpstart) but whoo-whee that's nuts.

    Summon: MTG Experts!

    So I had a lot of fun at the Jumpstart event today -- very good format for a brand new player. Got some good rares to fill out my collection, and a Nazgul that was worth more than the cost of the two Jumpstart boosters. Plus some nice LotR dice ... who doesn't like dice, even if they are cheap...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

    I really liked the opening sequence in the cabaret, up to the escape by plane. After that it got a bit out of control. It's a clear #4 for me.

    Summon: MTG Experts!

    Yeah, I'm going to do a Jumpstart event this coming Saturday. Seems like the mix I want: fixed, LotR-only, plus I don't have to have figured out how to draft. And the decks are smaller.
