    Reading the "Rusty" comic on The Delver's Dungeon is easier!

    If you're a fan of the strip started a while back, you might realize that it's a bit of a hassle to dig through and try to look at all the previous strips. Well, now they're organized in one easy-to-navigate archive page. Even better, five new strips have been added! So get caught up, read...

    Twilight 2013

    Right, because that's exactly how I presented myself, as a geopolitics expert. Nobody, myself and the reviewer included (at least based on what he posted) makes any pretense about poli-sci knowledge. With that said, there's a degree of plausibility that I prefer in a game that advertises...

    Twilight 2013

    There is a level of interference that comes from a game's background that sometimes makes it difficult to "work around". And as someone on the rpg.net comment thread notes, "You can change that if you want to" is never, ever a valid argument for bad game design. (Paraphrasing, but still)...

    Twilight 2013

    Force yourself. The stupid/silly of TWILIGHT:2013 should be understood. It's a fantasy game trying to masquerade as a gritty/modern wargame, and its premise falls apart at the slightest touch because, as the author of the review put it, the people who wrote the game seem to have gotten their...

    Twilight 2013

    Speaking just for myself, I prefer the alt-history of TWILIGHT:2000. I live (like the rest of you) in a world edging towards peak oil, where we are two weeks away from societal breakdown in the event of a major infrastructure collapse, where we have scattered our military in tiny packets to...

    WotC president Greg Leeds and I!!!

    I don't agree with KM. I will not, and I will not advocate, having to pay month-to-month to use old D&D products, whether it's the last 3.5 book released a year and change ago or whether it's a copy of CHAINMAIL. Not no, but hell no. Sell them via print-on-demand, or find another way to sell...

    What Would Happen If (Almost) Nobody Paid for RPGs?

    *waves hands* Oh it takes me forever but I'd like to think I put out a pretty good thing or two.

    10:1 illegal downloads

    Can I ask a seemingly naive or perhaps even stupid question here? I apologize if it seems out of the blue or breaks the discussion's flow up, I'm not looking to cause a problem or start a side debate or anything but... It's the stance of Wizards that if I download a copy of the DUNGEON MASTERS...

    1 Certainty, 4 Possibilities, and 1 Question.

    I have said for years, and you can all laugh and point if you want, that "forever irrevocable" on the OGL depends solely on how bad WotC does or does not want it to be. I think that if WotC became just an impressum of Hasbro (I mean, entirely, as in there are no "WotC staff" left, the logo is...

    How does pulling old edition pdfs benefit WotC?

    I think C: In a few months when 4e stuff goes back on sale, WotC pulls a Guy Incognito and says "Ol-der-e-dish-ons? What are these 'ol-der-e-dish-ons' you speak of?"

    ICv2's interview WotC President Greg Leeds

    This, a thousand times over, should be carved into the side of a mountain and filled with brass for all the world to see.

    Would WFRP be an interesting game system to use in Forgotten Realms?

    Echoing what others have already said...WARHAMMER FANTASY ROLE-PLAY is wound pretty tightly into its setting and there are certain conceits you have to take with you into whatever campaign world you are going to use the rules for.

    How Has the WotC PDF Situation Affected You REALLY?

    No real choice on the poll for me, but I'll reiterate: WotC have stomped down on a way for people interested in original D&D or AD&D to get the books. Now they'll have to track down physical copies - not a dreadfully hard thing, but certainly a little more difficult, q.e.d. Which is probably...

    Forked Thread: How much does WotC policies matter to your enjoyment of the game

    Forked Thread: How much does WotC policies matter to your enjoyment of the game

    Given that WotC released less and less relevant-to-my-gaming products over the years, they became less and less relevant to me. Now that they quite deliberately and calculatedly destroyed a major path to playing vintage D&D, their quite frankly offensive policies matter a great deal to me. Go...

    Exclusive interview WotC President Greg Leeds

    I think WotC will use the piracy excuse to never again bring out any sort of reprints (electronic that is) of older versions of D&D. In fact, the longer the delay between now and whatever they were allegedly planning to offer, the more piracy will happen. Then, they can simply point and say...

    Forked Thread: [Ryan Dancey's D&D Death Spiral] - D&D doomed to cult status?

    I would rather see D&D as a cultish niche hobby thing rather than puffed up and watered down for mass consumption, honestly. How many Ford 427 COBRAS are there? Now how many Chrysler mini-vans are there? Guess what I'd prefer to drive.
