    Looking for Thoughts & Opinions on Steampunk Games (with Poll)

    Thanks for the warning. I would have to agree with the whole dice pool thing. They are supposedly changing some things up with 3rd ed and may jump over to their forum and ask if that's one of the changes. If not, I will pass. I also agree that HEX is very flexible and LoA is what I am...

    Looking for Thoughts & Opinions on Steampunk Games (with Poll)

    My gaming group has primarily played D&D and Pathfinder over the years, but recently we've decided to break away from traditional themes and are now looking toward a steampunk game. I've been looking over the many games that are out there and have come down to three possible candidates which...

    Review of Ed Greenwood Presents: Elminster’s Forgotten Realms by Wizards of the Coast

    Neither, system neutral so as to be used with any edition or game system for that matter.

    Forgotten Realms 5E News

    I think what would be a good approach would be for Ao to set the rules in place for the gods. They are allowed to keep a handful of servants which they take with them to their domain for a few centuries. Advance the time line where everything that happened is now legend and the gods have been...

    Star Wars RPG Beta: Are they serious?

    One would think they would focus more on Old Republic to boost interest in the MMO and garner more players and have a setting with more room to flex, but I'm sure Lucas wants it to stay focused on the movies.

    [FG&G] For Gold & Glory: 2nd Edition Fantasy Role-Playing Game

    Thanks for posting that it's finished. I was thinking of checking the site the other day and forgot so was a nice surprise to find out it is done. I'm looking forward to the PDF version.

    Sci-Fi System Recommendations

    I'd go with Alternity. You can get a lot of the books cheap on eBay and maybe Amazon. I got a copy of the Player's Guide for it for $5 once. That would help your players get into it and with no more books being published you don't have to worry about a lot of accessories and what to add or...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Bundle Up on eBay and Gamer Photos

    Hey, just wanted to let people know that I have put part of my Pathfinder collection up on eBay. Haven't done any gaming in almost a year so figured I might as well get rid of my extra books and put them to better use, namely supporting my photography schooling. Click here for auction. And...

    Best Post-Apocalyptic Idea Ever!

    I've decided to make a second edition of this game and add a few more action heroes to fight. I need help figuring out what their proper hit points and attack dice should be. As well as I could use some suggestions for other stars to add. Here's who I'm adding to the list so far: Arnold...

    The zombie apocolpyse is possibly upon us (real life)

    Shovel! Don't forget the shovel. Let's just hope this is a freak incident and not the start of an outbreak. Edit note: Here's something interesting I just discovered. Facebook won't let me share the CNN video on it or even post it in my status. Though I see it is making its rounds on Youtube.

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Next Playtest Readthrough: Eh, It’s OK

    The new system for hit points at level up is going in a good direction and works until you have a character with a negative Con modifier. At which point it shows the game favors min/max and gives a better benefit to the classes which tend to already have the most hit points. I think a better...

    D&D 5E (2014) Something to think about concerning the 5e playtest

    Anyone who just walks through this playtest going, “ok, thank you, next test please, without really giving any thought to the purpose of the beta is causing a disservice and should bale out now. It’s time to put down the swords and forget your rivalries caused by the last editions. We, as a...

    Not D&D

    I'm waiting for the AGE system book from Green Ronin as I like that system. Alternity has probably seen the most run time by me outside of any d20 based system which is why I'm really hoping the clone project for it sees the light of day.

    [DCC RPG] I have the pdf of the finished rules and I’m glad I do

    Yes it is, now I wish I'd ordered a regular copy to go with mine as it's to nice to game with continuously. Guess I'll have to wait and get a second one once they hit street date.

    Ideas for a one-shot or mini campaign rules lite system

    I’m going to combine a couple of previous threads I’ve started to form the core idea for this thread which is to address the need for a game tailored for those players whose lives tend to be a little too hectic for a long term campaign or at least one that progresses into a high level of play...

    The DCC RPG fills the OSR stomach, but there's still a vacant spot to fill.

    I'm not sure. I've been in the hospital and the shipping address I used was for my mother's house which I haven't gotten a chance to get down there to check yet. I'm hoping, but since I'm rereading portions of the PDF now it's not like I'm in a rush to get it. Thanks though for answering the...

    My Ideal Game System?

    Dungeon Crawl Classic (DCC) rpg which releases this month might be something you could consider and meets almost all your points, if not all.

    The DCC RPG fills the OSR stomach, but there's still a vacant spot to fill.

    I was under the impression that C&C went beyond level 10. That is my objective, a system that has a maximum level of no more than level 10.
