    Iron Kindoms RPG info [updated]

    I'm really digging the previews. They are awesome.

    Is it WotC’s responsibility to bring people to the hobby?

    I think it's WotC's sole responsibility for bringing people into its brand, but not necessarily the hobby as a whole. It's a business and like any business, you want to attract customers and expand. It's not my job to go around and spread the Gospel according to D&D and preach it on the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Do you want D&D Next to succeed?

    Even if D&D Next comes out with everything I consider to be absolutely terrible, I would like it to succeed. I don't see myself picking this game up aside from the core set just for collection purposes, but I still want it to do quite well.

    I am playing D&D right now...

    My last game is August 11th as I go on paternity leave. My friend has taken over GM duties while I'm gone. He's running Carrion Crown.

    D&D 5E (2014) Another D&D Next Playtest Survey

    I found this survey a bit difficult.

    California game shops

    If you're going by San Luis Obispo, I would recommend Cheap Thrills on Higuera Street. I live just over 3 hours drive from SLO, but whenever the Mrs. and I go there, I always stop by that place. They have a huge selection of out-of-print stuff and they don't charge eBay prices for them either...

    Top Secret/SI

    Converting TS to d20 will take some effort because TS is a skill-based system where d20 is a class base system.

    Which D&D edition do you *really* prefer?

    Out of all the official editions, 3.0 (not 3.5) was my favorite. Right now, I'm really enjoying Pathfinder.

    Phantasy star RPG system? What would you use?

    The most comprehensive systems for converting those games would be using Hero System or GURPS because they are toolkits where just about every rule or situation is covered. However, that being said, it involves work. Of course, with any crpg, you're going to have to put in a lot of work to deal...

    Stats scaling past 18/19

    The only problem with 3.x in breaking the 18 barrier was that you could end up with some math that got so high at high levels that it made rolling a d20 irrelevant. That said, I still found it cool though.

    Are You Still Playtesting?

    I read through the materials and did the survey, but I never got to playtest. My players have zero interest and with my wife pregnant, I don't have time to use an alternate group. Right now, I'm in Sleep Mode until they release the next batch of materials.

    Games with opposed dice rolls - are they better, worse or no different?

    My basic feel on opposed rolls is that it adds to the time of play instead of speeding it up. The basic formula is going to be Dice Roll + Modifiers vs. Opposed Dice Roll + Modifiers. This is different than Dice Roll + Modifiers vs. Static Target Number. However, if I was to play in such a...

    Shatterzone Goes Hardcover: Pre-Order Now!

    I loved the setting for this game and the artwork was awesome albeit very violent. Really emulated the feel of the setting quite well.

    In appreciation of low-level adventuring

    I like starting off "gritty". My Carrion Crown campaign has a low-point build (12 points) and death is permanent in the game, so characters had to be extra careful. I even tinkered with the idea that the first couple of levels must be started with NPCs classes. At 1st level, everyone is a...

    Evolution of your Gaming Space

    I play over at a friend's house and when he bought his house and moved, we game over there. Not much as changed in the past 12 years of gaming in the SF Bay Area other than his new place has more open space, but is significantly hotter. As for my place, gaming is verboten and I know I'd be...

    Okay, that should be funny to read. I enjoy his stuff.
