    That's already released. I've had a copy of it for about two months or so.

    Bulmahn on Pathfinder 2's Goblin Ancestry

    I wonder if it wouldn't be better to do the playtest books in digest format? Since it is a limited run series it would save paper for a product that will be used for a few months and then sit on a shelf from then on once the testing is done. There would be just as much collectible value for a...

    How Pathfinder 2's Resonance Reduces Wand-Spamming; & Comparisons to 5E Discussed

    I could see Resonance working for non-casters, but it would be nice if they give casters an advantage by either replacing the roll with their arcane lore check or receiving class bonus that allows them extra uses. There could also be a feat that increases the usage per day. Outside of the...

    Taking Nominees for Most Anticipated RPG of 2018

    For me I'd have to go with the following: Legend of the Five Rings Alternity Esper Genesis Tiny Dungeons 2e 7th Sea: Khitai Capharnaum Mutant Crawl Classics

    Sean's Picks of the Week (1113-1117) - Get Your GURPS Week!

    I agree. If these were new editions of the books I'd be more inclined to accept the listed value, but they are not. The investment capital SJG put into these books should have long since been paid back since first production. Any sales of the PDF is strictly profit at this point. Not to...

    Legend of the Five Rings RPG Beta Announced

    I just started reading the player section so I'm past the basic rules section with the dice explanation. I like what I am seeing so far as it's more an amalgam of both systems. Honestly, I wasn't sure if I would like the Genesys system for L5R and the Roll and Keep system has its flaws too...

    Dark Conspiracy Returns in 2018…

    So its basically the name to draw people in. The lure for my friends and I was the conspiracy aspect that made you question if what you were experiencing was real or your character going nuts. That seems to be missing and that's a turn off.

    D&D Beyond Launches on August 15th for $3-6/m

    WotC has the worst track record for online products. I still don't understand their fear of PDFs. $20 is a steep price for PDFs of books most players already own. Paizo is releasing Starfinder next month and have already stated that the PDF will share their core book line price of $10. Every...

    Looking Forward At The Year To Come In Tabletop RPGs

    I don't really see Eberron as Sci-Fantasy. It's more steampunk, which tends to still fall into fantasy. However, it would be nice to see DragonStar make a return. Not sure if Fantasy Flight Games would release it again under 5e or make it a new system if they did; either would be nice though...

    Looking Forward At The Year To Come In Tabletop RPGs

    Need to add Alternity and Star Trek to the list of pending list of sci-fi. Alternity will work better for sci-fantasy though a GM could easily have Star Fleet send the ship to check on a medieval era planer or have a hologram malfunction that kills a few red shirts while simulating a fantasy...

    7th Sea Hits ONE MILLION DOLLARS (AKA The Top 100+ RPG Kickstarters Ever!)

    You probably saw 7th Sea and didn't realize it. During the height of the d20 OGL craze AEG rebranded it as Swashbuckling Adventures. It was all the same material, but retooled for d20 to be played with D&D 3.x. They did quite a few books for it too. As for writing all the books, Wick...

    7th Sea Hits ONE MILLION DOLLARS (AKA The Top 100+ RPG Kickstarters Ever!)

    It will be a separate Kickstarter. The plan is to make it a stand alone game, but compatible with 7th Sea core.

    7th Sea Hits ONE MILLION DOLLARS (AKA The Top 100+ RPG Kickstarters Ever!)

    Yes, they just shared the same mechanics. As for Wick doing L5R, he has announced he will be doing 7th Sea: Far East in 2017. I think it will be all the stuff he wanted to do with L5R, but was never allowed. It might give L5R a run for its money if FFG doesn't do a good job with it.

    7th Sea Hits ONE MILLION DOLLARS (AKA The Top 100+ RPG Kickstarters Ever!)

    7th Sea has a pretty strong fan base and add that it shared the same system as Legend of the Five Rings many of those players dabbled with it or at least bought the books. Now that L5R is on hold until Fantasy Flight releases something new (they bought the rights from AEG) many L5R fans are...

    D&D 5E (2014) Convince me we're doing the Warlock wrong

    I like the idea of recharge for the warlock, but understand the rest issue. I've played on both sides of the screen and sympathize with the OP's player, especially if combat becomes overwhelming due to a chained encounter. One thought I had using the recharge would be to use the recharge from...

    Gamemaster for Hire on Facebook

    I know it's ironic Morrus, but one thing I haven't found on Facebook is a group that does what this forum does. Goal was to create another option for people. May not seem like the smartest move, but have to start somewhere in letting people know. Feel free to delete or move the thread if this...
