    (Rumor) Disney Stars Wars Could Be Removed from Canon (or simply ignored)

    Which is kind of a shame, imo. The Skywalker Saga could have been such a great Saga. Maybe they should have the guts to just say something like "You know what, Eps 1-3 and Eps 7-9 we can do better (or: is just one of the stories they tell of that time) and we will..." . And then, with what is...

    (Rumor) Disney Stars Wars Could Be Removed from Canon (or simply ignored)

    Yeah, I don't think that will happen. I mean I'd love for it to happen (I really hate the final Skywalker trilogy, it's pure and utter garbage, storywise), but that more or less would be the equivalent to Disney admitting they produced naughty word material and i can't see that happening. Although...

    Kickstarter D&D 5e - Exalted Vales Campaign

    This looks very nice and enticing. I really wish I had seen this earlier...the now-gone early bird pledge would have been an amount of $$ I could, by a hair's breadth, afford atm. Will you develop this setting further in future projects, or is this a "one book and done" thing? I'm curious...

    Good fantasy reads?

    If you're like me, and prefer fantasy reads with well developed worlds (deep dives in worldbuilding) than you have to treat yourself to: Steven Erikson's Malazan Book of the Fallen (and all other works in that world). Michelle West's Sun Sword books and the other works in the same setting. R...

    D&D 5E (2014) Help me build the mythical first Hexblade (need the 5e mechanics veterans' help)

    You mean Blackrazor is the DnD stand-in for Stormbringer, Elric's sword? Is that official comment? Anyway, I still don't think it makes it a good Raven Queen item...Stormbringer was more linked to chaos and demons and not the god of fate and death. Although i do admit that I have not that much...

    D&D 5E (2014) Help me build the mythical first Hexblade (need the 5e mechanics veterans' help)

    Thanks for the replies so far. Blackrazor is name-dropped in the description, true, but is seperate from the first ever weapon made (by the Raven Queen, as said). Blackrazor doesn't strike me as a good choice for a weapon if it is supposed to be by the RQ. @Lucas Blackstone - That'd be an...

    D&D 5E (2014) Help me build the mythical first Hexblade (need the 5e mechanics veterans' help)

    Hi everyone, I posted this on another forum as well, but I though that the more expert eyes I have on this, the better, so here goes (post copy-pasta from the other forum) : Thanks in advance!

    Capturing the "feel" of Tolkien.

    Depends heavily on your definition of "understand". If you have read The Silmarillion, you understand a lot more than without it, just by having read it. For example in many of the songs or poems that are strewn through out tLotR there are references to things of the First and/or Second Age of...

    Critical Role Critical Role Suspends Broadcasts

    Honestly? People need things like CR even more right now, with all the isolation and having to be at home. So while i totally understand shuting down the studio for the safety of their employees, I think it'd be a big mistake to just sit Covid out without any CR. I know I am pretty sad at the...

    Capturing the "feel" of Tolkien.

    I'd love to have a meaningful experience like that, yes! ME is still one of my all-time favorite secondary worlds (although I do prefer The Silmarillion to LotR or TH). So much depth, flair and mythic atmosphere! Unfortunately, I think the way to get that feel is by having just the right people...

    FFG Star Wars & Other Roleplaying Games Aren't Going Away After All

    That is good news! In contrast to the TOR/AiME thing I'm glad the system for SW stays. Genesys is also a line that I'm glad we can keep. We will see how good EE will be with their work. I keep my fingers crossed. The notion that we are somehow "out of books for SW" is laughable from a content...

    Dune RPG Details Emerge!

    What i want to know is : how do i get ino the playtest of Dune?! Normally, Modiphius makes a playtest open-call but i can't find anything.

    D&D 5E (2014) Arcanis Campaign Setting for 5e - What's it like?

    Apparently this is a very obscure game?! I asked on two other forums and so far I haven't gotten much in form of answers. It was a setting that saw publication during the d20 years and later got a house-system in its second edition. Now Paradigm Concept has published a 5e version via...

    Best Licensed RPG: Discuss the Best Adaptation of a Movie/Book to an RPG that You've Ever Played!

    I have to agree with Marvel Heroic ... beautiful game that feels like, well, Marvel's stuff. Hard disagreement on TOR and on Star Wars Saga Ed. . Maybe TOR works for The Hobbit, I don't know (never read it, just seen the movies), but it does not capture ME (the living, breathing...

    Pathfinder 2E Playtest rules vs. Core rules : What changed? And is there anyone who still prefers the Playtest rules?

    Thank you all, for your insights! I'm kind of glad that this seems pretty clear cut ^^ @CapnZapp - I hear you about the old games. As i have not played PF 2E or the Playtest, I was just looking for opinions on both rulesets. I mean it was not impossible that there are folks who think Playtest...

    Andy Peregrine Confirmed As Dune Line Manager

    I am very much looking forward to Dune. Modiphius has had a rough start with me (not entirely their fault) but has won me over since then with top notch product and being very approachable and nice people. I will definitely take a look at Dune when it is there. And I think their house-system...

    Pathfinder 2E Playtest rules vs. Core rules : What changed? And is there anyone who still prefers the Playtest rules?

    Thank you for your replies, I appreciate it. And yeah, I should have been more specific in the title, I guess. I am specifically talking about the playtest rules as presented in the printed Playtest Book that was sold by Paizo. Not the "living" playtest as a whole. I was wondering if it makes...

    Pathfinder 2E Playtest rules vs. Core rules : What changed? And is there anyone who still prefers the Playtest rules?

    I am kind of interested in the changes that were made between the official 2E playtest book and the final corebook. Is there an official list somewhere? Did any of you play intensively with both? I am wondering if there are folks who like the playtest version better than the final one. And if...

    Upgraded to https! Please report bugs!

    The forum always logs me out when i leave (i marked the "remember me" thingy) and it always tells me that i have the wrong name and/or pw when i log in (and it still logs me in anyway...as proven by me posting this under my account). Am i the only one with this problem? It's weird.
