    L5R4 -- has anyone here had a chance to get their paws on it yet?

    I'm looking forward to it as well, but I haven't seen anything indicating it has been released yet. You might be interested in knowing that one of the swag items for Free RPG Day is a L5R 4e Quicklaunch/adventure. That and the PF mod are the only two things I'm interested in.

    [Paradigm] [Arcanis] Shattered Empires Quicklaunch available for preorder

    Any info on the book itself? Color? Page count? Your store page is void of that info. Is there a pdf/book combo? Could seem to find that if there was. Thanks.

    Quest for the "perfect" all-in-one game

    Pathfinder doesn't work because there are no monsters in the core book, you need the Bestiary. An all-in-one has player/gm/monster info in it.

    Quest for the "perfect" all-in-one game

    I can agree with this sentiment. I love PF and what Paizo has done in that regard, but I still want that one book system so there’s no fuss carrying around multiple books. The question is though how would you streamline it? My thought would be if one could cut out about a fourth of the PHB...

    Quest for the "perfect" all-in-one game

    I forgot about SW:EE, it does a good job based on it's size, but I found it lacking in the monster section. Perhaps if they increased the monster section I'd consider it a more viable option. After all it's general purpose is to serve as an entry point to the campaigns designed to go with it...

    Quest for the "perfect" all-in-one game

    One of the most elusive items in our hobby is the “perfect” all-in-one rpg book. I’ve been on a personal quest to find the “perfect” all-in-one since the 80’s when second edition was first announced. At the time I hoped TSR was going to release a consolidated rulebook combining all the various...

    Why are there dice on the Island of Misfit Toys?

    Except that some game stores actually carry the variant dice, if only as a novelty item. I think if a game system was properly introduced that used variant dice you'd see that change also since the majority don't carry them due to their not being used within our hobby or niche. Perhaps the key...

    You referring to SAGA? The card based version of Dragonlance?

    Why are there dice on the Island of Misfit Toys?

    I’ve been toying around with the idea of creating a new game for awhile now but have been trying to figure out how to make it stand out from the rest. I’m not sure if I’ll ever get past the wistful stage as far as game design goes, but one thing that has stuck out to me is the abundance of new...

    No more WotC Star Wars site

    Anyone else sign up for the e20 patronage, since it is based off of SAGA?

    Best GAMES AROUND! (NOT D20/4e, White Wolf or Cthulhu)

    I'm liking the look of Danger Patrol also and fully agree with 7th Sea. Given it's popularity I've often wondered why AEG doesn't revive it. After all they did a whole self contained book for LBS why not just do that with 7th?

    Alternity for the win! Or at least the Stardrive setting.

    Getting rid of some of my books

    Thank you. We're goin to the doctor tomorrow to find out the exact delivery date as my Fiancee has Gestational Diabetes and will have to have the baby via c-section. Currently we are due around the 3rd of August, but could deliver pretty much any time in July after week 35 due to the GD.

    Getting rid of some of my books

    Not sure where to post eBay auctions since the area trading use to go appears to be closed and the Marketplace only allows you to post auctions it will handle. If a mod could move this to where it should go I'd appreciate it. Anyway my fiancée and I are expecting in a couple of month so money...

    [Art Request] Inspiring pics for players in an Egyptian/African/Arabian setting

    Nice pics. You might check out Nyambe, an African themed setting, done by Atlas games. There was a lot of black and white art done in it that could help that showed people as well as scenary.

    Burning nostalgic for Alternity

    Thanks also for posting the info. You know I'm wondering now if the system could change since there are now d16 and d24 dice which could be added to the variable pool?

    Which edition of UA was it printed in? I don't remember seeing it.
