Over the last few years, Brett Bernstein at Precis Intermedia has been slowly bringing back some of the legacy of West End Games back to life. When the West End Games implosion happened a few years ago, Bernstein was one of the publishers who picked up the pieces by purchasing the rights to the...

Chaosium, unfortunately, has had a long history of money problems. At the Chaosium panel last year at Gen Con Greg Stafford said that the company had run out of money more than a few times in its history (I want to say it happened 5 or 6 times, including the most recent debacle after the CoC 7e...

Since Runequest 2 sold out a few press runs in its first year, and had sales that were beaten only by AD&D, I seriously doubt that there were many games that were played more than it.

I sold strike ranks as prefigured initiative, the group had fewer problems with it than with other things in the rules.

I should have specified Cave Trolls, but ultimately I'm not a stickler for canon (as I mentioned). For our game there's an increased importance of Chaos. YGWV.

I think that something that could be done, that doesn't require any special coding or features, would be to reach out to respected reviewers and/or tastemakers and build a "curation" feature with them.

The DM's Guild is an exclusive deal.

I wonder how this site will fare differently than, say, how Your Games Now did?

Actually, the training aspect is one of the things that the players in our group have liked.

Yeah, that was a weird coincidence. I was sharing the link to this on G+ when Rick Meint's post about the PDFs hitting OBS popped up. Thanks to the power of editing, I was able to put a couple of links to the new PDF up. I am really curious to see the 1st edition PDF, because I've never actually...

When I wrote about Bestiaries recently, I said that the reason that I was reading some was because I was prepping for a new Swords & Wizardry campaign. After that faltered with a near TPK in the first session, the group dusted off and regathered themselves and talked about what to do next. Since...

Dynamite Comics and Paizo are bringing a special new bundle to the Humble Bundle site. This collection of comics also features new, exclusive digital battlemaps for your Pathfinder (and any other fantasy game), and a unique physical tier for a random selection of assorted Pathfinder Battles...

The Worlds of the Cypher System Kickstarter is coming from Monte Cook Games, and they sent me an exclusive teaser and some images for the upcoming Kickstarter. The project starts on Monday the 29th of February. UPDATE - the Kickstarter has now launched. Worlds of the Cypher System...

It is time again, true believers, for another EN World quick hits. For such a short month there has been a lot of big news out there in gaming land, so that means it is time again to give some focus to those smaller pieces of news that people may have missed while Kickstarters are out there...

It would depend also on perception you want to put forward. What has everyone been talking about regarding World of Darkness lately? That New World of Darkness doesn't sell.

I left how the sources wanted to generate their lists up to them. I'm assuming that those numbers are based on revenue, but that is just an assumption. Regardless, it doesn't surprise me that the OBS best sellers would differ from that of brick and mortar, since they don't have access to the...

Why would they exclude sales? That doesn't even make sense. Mage, for example, is a $30 PDF. That means that Wizards has to sell three copies of OD&D (for example) to make the sales of one copy of Mage. Assuming that their criteria is dollar amount sold, which is what I would guess. I would...

DnDClassics is no more, and DMSGuild didn't launch until this year. The first quarter sales of this year are made up of the items sold in the last quarter of last year.

Now in its second year, the Bamfsies Awards have announced their slate of winners. The Bamfsies Awards honor super-hero role-playing games, and is organized by the people who bring you the BAMF Podcast. The awards are a mix of curated awards picked by a group of judges selected by the...
