Well, that all came later. In The Frozen Throne, they are just high elves who got emo.

At this point I'm really curious how much it will be a new edition. And what they are going to call it.

If the rules and the dice say the players easily beat their enemies, then I let the enemies get beaten. Good for the players. They worked for that.

I think the thing I see getting illuminated here is the setting's greatly interconnected web of countries and organizations. Even if the setting did not publish any plot (which I think it would have been better for), with most of the places and groups it only needs a quick glance to spot...

It's on the top of my pile. It reads like being the perfect game for oldschool D&D campaigns without having to deal with D&D mechanics.

The big thing about The Lord of the Rings, that everyone always seems to be missing when emulating its world, is that the elves are leaving and the dwarfs going extinct is because the core message of the whole story is "The world of magic wonder is disappearing and progress has killed it". The...

Isometric encounter maps for online play! ...that's all I got so far.

"Why would you say something so controversial, yet so brave?"

Do we need Post-5E for that?

I always agree with Die Hard being a Christmas movie because it's just much funnier to have it treated as one than not.

When I pitch a new campaign, I'm telling interested people "You are playing a group of X who do Y". Any PCs the players make must want to do Y, and want to do it together with the other PCs. That's really all I ask for (and insist on) with character personality and backstory. If players want to...

I was wondering what a Bloodborne boss monster drawn by Larry Elmore would look like, since I'm working on a campaign idea that is basically "Bloodborne meets 90s AD&D". Out of curiosity, I only entered "Bloodborne great old one in the style of Larry Elmore" and nothing else to see what it does...

This really depends entirely on the complexity, intuitiveness, and writing of each specific game. Could be 30 minutes or 30 hours.

That would be my second choice for a campaign to run, if I had not already something quite similar in the works now.

That's not a comparison. Say you have an NPC get killed in your campaign and then the next timeline update make that NPC an important player in the new world shaking event. What now? Say the players have conquered an evil castle and took control of a powerful artifact. And then the next...

Dragonbane as the main rules set. The BECMI rules for dungeon exploration, wilderness travel, and domain management. Red Tide for generating borderland towns, courts, and small dungeons. De Bellis Antiquitatis as a mass combat system. A Foundry campaign with 10 to 18 players who each have one...

No. Even if the changes are good, you still can't use any of either the old nor the new cool material because you don't know what the next metaplot update will do with them.

I do happen to have 5000€ saved up and first thing I'm going to do after the move is splurging on new furniture. I expect most of it being left over after that, and I think I could grab deep into the pocket for a new stereo. The other is still good, but it's going on 20 years old now and it was...
