    A Ruins Of The Lost Realm Review

    Beautiful book and I really enjoyed the expansion of Arnor and Eregion -- though in many ways I'd like to turn back the clock to earlier in the third age for the war with Angmar and the ultimate destruction of Arnor's successor kingdoms.

    Florida man vs an Aussie

    Australians have limits to how low they will go; I'm not sure Florida Man does. But they both have Melbourne in common.

    WotC Announces OGL 1.1 -- Revised Terms, Royalties, and Annual Revenue Reporting

    (1) Because WotC appears to be trying to build a walled garden around something designed not to be walled in, and doesn't appear to be offering value in return for it. (2) Because Dancey's genius was ensuring what he released as Open couldn't really be taken away despite WotC shenanigans...

    WotC Announces OGL 1.1 -- Revised Terms, Royalties, and Annual Revenue Reporting

    This is all a bit much to digest, but I've come to two conclusions: 1. I have no interest in adopting D&D 5.5 now. 2. We all owe a huge debt to Ryan Dancey for the way the original OGL is constructed.

    Re-reading the Hobbit, it almost feels like a distinct setting from LotR's Middle-Earth

    I find the most disturbing element of the Serkis LotR audiobook is when he sings every line of Tom Bombadil's dialog. Every. Line.

    Warhammer 40k cinematic universe confirmed.

    Eisenhorn? I'm down for Eisenhorn. Or something Rogue Trader-ish. If this just tries to glorify Space Marines to sell plastic I'm out.

    Well, I'm still here at EN World, so yeah pretty much.

    How's it going? Just checking in!

    I know the feeling. I've drifted from RPG playing (still pick up books too read) just due to time. Doing more tabletop wargaming & mini painting, so I guess I've drifted to D&D's roots ... lends itself better to episodic availability.

    D&D 5E (2024) What new jargon do you want to replace "Race"?

    I favor "People" (as in : "The Free Peoples of Central Earth"). But not on the poll, so would take Ancestry or Heritage. Or, you know, Elf, Dwarf, and Halfling classes. Though you have to rename the last two since they define themselves in relation to humans, which is specist.

    Dragonlance: Shadow of the Dragon Queen & Warriors of Krynn Review

    Thanks, great review. Moves the book from "hard no" to "maybe on sale" and board game from "maybe yes" to "no" for me!

    D&D 5E (2024) One D&D Permanently Removes The Term 'Race'

    Removal of race: good. Species? Meh. Give me ancestry or heritage -- or even "people"; species causes me to ask questions about interbreeding and biology and I really dno't want to deal with that in my fantasy game. Of course, now we need to deal with specist terms like dwarf or halfling ...
