We don't consider ourselves to be content creators and don't have the people on staff to do so. Whenever you start creating content to go along with or replace content that you are licensing from someone else, you then have to go through an entirely new approval process, make sure it matches...

Most of the maps are top-down style, with the exception of the castle maps which are all isometric. Unfortunately, these were not reversible isometric maps and were artist renditions of isometric maps, meaning that they couldn't simply be converted over. They are useful for exploring and all the...

If you are a DM's Guild author considering PWYW, I would instead encourage you to set an actual price that you think is fair and then open up the free preview to cover the entire contents. That way, buyers know exactly what they are getting and then they can agree with you and buy it or move...

Great article. For another perspective, I would like to throw out the concept of shared publishing. Many people in this industry do work as a labor of love. The work and all proceeds *could* be divided out among all participating parties based on the percentage of work it takes to create the...

A couple more online conventions. All the fun of a convention without the travel expenses or the con crud. Gamer Geekend II March 4-6 http://gamergeekend.org/ FG Con 8 April 8-10 http://www.fg-con.com/ There was also an FGDaze 24-hour convention that just passed on January 9th. They all seem...

Before I noticed that it was the fold-out map, I thought it might have been for a proof where the map was upside down. :D

What an amazing artist. My gaming shelves are full of his fantastic work. He will be missed.

Outsourcing the adventure creation satisfies the same need and allows the publisher to continue selling the more lucrative core products, while still demonstrating that the product is actively supported. That is actually a pretty shrewd choice.

Adventures almost never outsell core books. If they do, it is just for a very brief period immediately after release. It is normally the case that player focused core items sell the most, followed by DM general campaign items and then adventures. In the past, some publishers mistakenly looked...

The sale runs on Steam and on our site. The core licenses are on sale at 10% off and select DLC are on sale from 10% - 40% off. The price discounts are available from both storefronts, so you can choose which method you prefer. http://store.steampowered.com/app/252690/...

I backed the KS, but I'm going to try to resist playing the Early Access/Kickstarter Beta version because I want my first time through to be glorious and bug-free. That, and I find my time available for gaming extremely limited these days. I can't wait to play the full version once it is done...

That Dungeon World cover is fantastic!

I think it took us roughly 15 hours to get the SRD content into Fantasy Grounds, test it and proof-read it. We were also able to short-cut a lot of it because we already had templates and tools built for when we did this for the PHB, MM and DMG modules. Starting from scratch would have taken us...

Hey DocSun, be sure to check out the wiki on building characters. http://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/5E_Character_Sheet Fantasy Ground's focus is not on providing a character builder (although it has some of those features), but in unlocking a very automated and easy to use combat...

It is either a 1-time purchase OR a $10/mo monthly subscription. If you are just looking at using it as a tool to manage your local campaign or your players will get their own license, it drops to a 1-time $39 payment or $4/mo.

That's understandable. As cool as it is, I suspect many people will still want to go with the full versions at some point. It considerably helps those who already own the books and didn't want to turn around and buy stuff twice -- especially without really knowing what it would look like. Now...

<sorry, wrong thread>

I look forward to a new year and what we'll be talking about for 2016. The only thing I hope is that the news are mostly positive. With all the acquisitions that occurred in 2015, I can imagine this being the year when people start launching new things.

Overall, I enjoyed the movie, but there was something I couldn't quite put my finger on that I didn't like about it. The new characters were all likable and the acting was much better than the prequels. Even when Kylo Ren was throwing a temper tantrum, it didn't grate on my nerves like Jar Jar...
