Yeah, one thing I did like about the adventure is that they made an elf the baddie. That did not often happen in those days.

The article that brought this home for me was "It's not easy being good" by Roger E. Moore in Dragon #51. Moore insisted that paladins would not associate with evil characters. It so happened that our lawful good paladin, Elric, was good pals with Zyx, the party's chaotic evil magic-user, and I...

Dragon Publishing released Dragon #92 in December 1984. It is 100 pages long and has a cover price of $3.00. This issue features clerics, ettins, and spellbooks! The cover is called "Bridge of Sorrows," painted by Denis Beauvais, and captures a wizard, barbarian, and centaur facing off...

Yes. If anyone knows of an agent who has cleared an RPG book under the tariff exemption, please let me know :-)

I have a friend who has several tons of RPG books currently on a ship from China. Despite extensive arguing, his customs broker insists they must be classified as games, and subject to the tariff. He is weighing his options.

Thanks for the list, and I will look up some of those. I notice you didn't mention TSR's "Fab Four" from the 80s - Elmore, Easley, Parkinson, Caldwell. What's your opinion of their work?

I can't comment on the other, more technical, critiques you made. But the anatomy looked ok to me - in that it looks like a woman holding a sword. What is it about the anatomy that is bad?

Once the bots can write and draw as well as humans, it's an open question whether my publications will have much commercial value anymore. Myself and other indie creators are grappling with this now, and I know some who are planning to exit the industry before the "AI apocalypse" hits. As...

I know this is a controversial topic, and that is why we have this thread - so the conversation can stay here. Folks can easily avoid this discussion if they wish. For the record, I don't use AI art in any of my commercial products, as you can easily verify. This thread is for experiments and...

I've been experimenting with an airbrush/acrylic look that is a bit similar to the 80s/90s TSR art.Here's an attempt at the DMG 1E in that style:

Bad news. A friend of mine is importing RPG books from China right now, and has been told by his importer that the book will be treated as a "game" and hence subject to the full 125% China tariff.

A re-imainging of the Dungeon Masters Guide 1E cover using OpenAI. BTW - I don't mind sharing the prompts, but they are really long and disrupt the post. If you want the prompt, please DM me.

Yep, just the prompt - no reference image
