    Do you prefer your character to be connected or unconnected to the adventure hook?

    Note that creating relatives only for them to be killed may be quite unkind to emotionally invested player. Even an adventure prologue (ie. an initial setup) could be nasty (especially if it hits vulnerable members of the family). The recommendation would be to hold an auction of sorts, during...

    Green Ronin's Sword Chronicle Now Available

    Sounds very interesting. I dislike GoT, and yet I still long for a well made system for urban/court intrigue.

    Worlds of Design: The Lost Art of Running Away

    Flee option for me is a part of social contract that grants me (the GM) the power. This means that parlays, retreats or captivity are almost always on the table. In return the PCs are expected not to be murder hobos. Murder hobos, rabid dogs and other, irredeemable creatures are not...

    D&D General The Hall of Suck: Worst Classes in D&D History (Spoiler Alert: Nothing from 5e)

    Can anyone review modern OSR clones or implementations with regards to Monks, Fighters, Thieves and Paladins? I'm particularly interested in Black Hack, Swords and Wizardry and Lords & Labyrinths versions.

    In that case this is a golden opportunity for you to broaden your perspective, and also to share something of your likes for this year. Note: I already own most of the stuff on this year's list.

    LotFP in financial dire straights?

    I agree that sexual content should not be used to emphasize violence. I am also of the opinion that bringing sexual violence into games is NOT making them more appealing. Mostly because the so-called adult imagery is about putting a woman in a role of a victim. The sampling of graphics on the...

    Branimir's Open Letter to Games Workshop

    For certain values of "the world". I am ashamed to admit that I live in a country where the president (who apparently won the election vote again) is incapable of acknowledging basic human rights for gay people.

    Paizo New Leadership at Paizo

    Spoken by probably most recognizable journalist frontman of the hobby these days :) Dude, let us, the sararimen, the basement lurkers and the forum drifters, feel bad about our mundane lives. Don't bring us even lower on yet another Covid-sponsored day.

    Owen KC Stephens' Tabletop RPG Truths #2

    That's why I support keeping shipping costs separate from kickstarter's initial cost. It also saves some pocket money in case a kickstarter fails to deliver.

    Peril - wherein RangerWickett reinvents the wheel

    5E is a different beast, haven't read it (aside from some skimming). I consider it to be a step backwards for different reasons (mostly to do with pandering to lowest common denominator) - it's not bad, it's just a repackaged nostalgia with a few modern parts retrofitted plus excellent graphic...

    My COVID19 Journey

    This might indicate transition to the severe stage. Get a doctor to check your lungs ASAP. (in case someone is able to contact Fitz or his family in real life, please do so) NOTE: I am not a doctor. NOTE #2: Your description does not seem to match mild case symptoms anymore. You may seem to be...

    The title says it all. Or, maybe not... here's a link to a review, one of the many: ENWorld Review Kickstarter link? This way, please. Regards, Ruemere PS. I am one of the lucky few who never read or had the adventure. :)
