    Pinnacle is trying to get The Savage World of Solomon Kane (Savage Worlds system) out for Gencon. Nothing has been confirmed that this will happen, but they indicated they're on track.

    Is Origins going downhill?

    This was my first ever Origins and I had a blast! Tons of games and I was able to get into any I wanted to play with my generic tickets. It may not be up to previous years, but it was still well attended. Personally, I think folks ought to not spread doubt (which is usually unintentional...

    Origins

    This will be my first Origins, so I'm looking forward to the gam'n and meeting folks. I'll be running Mutants and Masterminds Demo Games. I had trouble getting the games listed and they didn't make it into the spreadsheets. This seemed to result in folks not knowing they are available as they...

    mutants and masterminds, damage recovery, and power level.

    This becomes more of an issue with Alternate Powers. Lets say in a PL10 game you had a 4pp/rank power at +10 (40pp total cost). You wanted to add a 2pp/rank attack power as an Alternate Power. Without the cap to attack powers, you would have a +20 attack bonus; but given the power cap rule...

    Mutants & Masterminds

    Heh, good point! The Mastermind Manual has rules options for using Hit Points. I have not used it, so can't say if its' good or bad; but the diversity is there.

    Mutants & Masterminds

    Just a F.Y.I for everyone: there is a Iron Age era sourcebook (Iron Age), a teen hero sourcebook (Hero High), a multi-verse/locations sourcebook for the Freedom City setting (Worlds of Freedom) and a magic sourcebook (not sure of it's name) coming down the pike. Probably a few others, but those...

    Pirates of Dark Water

    There was a Pirates of Dark Water supplement for AD&D 2ed awhile back that didn't get much notice. It wasn't particulary good, but it did cover a lot of the beasties and had a giant map of Mer. You might be able to find it on eBay.

    Mutant & Mastermind settings

    There will also be a setting coming called Paragon written by Steve Kenson that deals with a world where people begin to develop superpowers. That concept may sound familar, but development on Paragons began well before Heroes premiered. I would suggest looking into True20, which is meant to...

    Atomic Thinktank Down?

    As the Demo Game Coordinator, I'm getting a little worried about organizing games for Origins and Gencon, which I get done on the Think Tank, when April 2 (Origins) and April 6 (Gencon) are the deadlines. With that in mind, if anyone is willing to run demo games on Green Ronins' behalf for...

    OGL: Faserip?

    Nice! Are you going to include art with this project? If so, would it be a good idea for folks to continue to make donations to help cover this cost?

    OGL: Faserip?

    Well, I can't quantify anything; but I'd suspect a RPG (well, support material for a free RPG) using one of the most beloved RPG systems around published by one of the most respected RPG publishers (PDF or print) would sell like mad. Totally can't back that up, but I've got that feel'n! Oh...

    OGL: Faserip?

    Of course, you could release it as a open system and create optional supplements and adventures that you could sell. Folks could play the free game on its' own or purchase the "extras" if they like, assuming they where something folks would want to buy. That idea sounds familiar... ;)

    D20 Modern in 2007?

    I sometimes wonder if this is the problem with WOTC Modern books. Just fliping through them they seem small and, as a result, maybe folks think they are somewhat incomplete. This may be incorrect, but its' about perception. After recently fliping through a Modern book I though, "thats...

    Battlestar Galactica d20 Future

    This is done by the same folks who did Serentiy. And I believe it uses the same system.

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    OK, love the "Big Shiny PDF", wulf! Thought I might take a stab at stating up the SRD Monsters. Have a few questions: How should we stat monsters that come with stats for various sizes? Give the "smallest" and let the GM use Monster Adjustment to advance them? That doesn't seem like the...

    Microlite20 : the smallest thing in gaming

    Heh, you got it cheif! As for the setting idea, I'm all for it. A little bit of extra goodness to go along with adventures is rarely a bad thing. Of course, it can get out of hand and suddenly the simplisity of a lite system is buried under the weight of added rules, options ect.; but I don't...
