    New Daggerheart Kickstarter Announced, Chris Perkins, Jeremy Crawford's Plans Revealed

    If there is ever a Daggerheart Munchkin set, you could use the same cards for two different games.

    New Daggerheart Kickstarter Announced, Chris Perkins, Jeremy Crawford's Plans Revealed

    Kinda makes sense. During D&D 3rd Edition, books upon books of feats and prestige classes were sold. People (including myself) bought them. I could see Daggerheart doing something similar with class packs. Assuming quality control to keep power creep in check and allow a GM to be confident in...

    Playing AS monsters?

    There's a product on Backerkit right now based around that idea: DCC-Compatible RPG where YOU play the Monsters! Welcome to Dungeon Dwelling Creatures - BackerKit DCC-Compatible RPG where YOU play the Monsters! Welcome to Dungeon Dwelling Creatures

    Running multiple games in parallel?

    I've been involved in both. As a player, I have been involved in parallel campaigns run by the same GM; the two groups were in the same game world but working toward competing goals. One time, this was in a face-to-face game of D&D 3rd Edition; one time was an online Greyhawk campaign that used...

    What is adventuring?

    Still a higher risk to the PCs than some contemporary D&D adventures.

    What is adventuring?

    Not my cup of tea, but yes Yes; some of my favorite rpgs don't have levels at all. Yes. I think that a good adventure includes multiple pillars of play. However, conflict needn't always be physical.

    Trailer Peacemaker 2

    From my understanding, Season 2 somehow acknowledges that Season 1 happened, but Season 2 also exists independently from Season 1. I have now idea how or if they will address that in show.

    Game Mechanics & Lore

    There's truth to this, but even Conan could (and did) fail at things. Yes, he could fight multiple combatants and win, but he still needed an army to fight an army. He could bleed. He could be hurt or captured. Sometimes, luck was a factor, but he also had tangible skill in leading a combat...

    John Kovalic Looks Back On Over Two Decades Of Munchkin

    I do that sometimes. Sometimes it was to get a particular theme, but sometimes it was to help balance some things out. I liked the Munchkin Fu theme, but the monsters were kinda week in that set. In contrast, the Cthulu set could be a bit tough. Together, it was a nice variety that hit a good...

    John Kovalic Looks Back On Over Two Decades Of Munchkin

    Unfortunately, I think that one (and the Marvel one) were done via partnership with USAopoly, so I'm not sure it will be reprinted. All of the other sets that I have have SJ Games item number on them.

    Game Mechanics & Lore

    Fluff and Crunch should have a coherent relationship. If the dice are regularly telling a different story than what the fiction of the game is telling, there's an issue.

    Itch.io is shadowbanning or deleting NSFW and LGBTQ content

    I feel that the choices some of these companies are making are, to be blunt, kinda dumb. If your goal (as a business) is to make money, why would you make your potential customer base smaller? I understand having personal morals and how that may influence business decisions. But, at a certain...

    John Kovalic Looks Back On Over Two Decades Of Munchkin

    On the topic of Munchkin, what are some of your favorite sets that aren't just Munchkin? Cthulu Munchkin can be fun. Wizard of Oz Munchkin is good, but surprisingly rough on the players with some of the Bad Stuff from monsters.

    Someone can be deemed not guilty of a crime yet still sued (and potentially liable) in civil court. "Wrongful" and "illegal" are not necessarily synonymous.

    John Kovalic Looks Back On Over Two Decades Of Munchkin

    In some states, it's a thing. Your wife is correct, even when they do allow it, they'll charge more. (Supposedly due to increased insurance risks.) There are also some places that have weird alcohol laws regarding whether or not someone is allowed to sit at a restaurant table where someone...

    I could see that. I was very happy with the content. I haven't thought much about the actual box itself.

    Itch.io is shadowbanning or deleting NSFW and LGBTQ content

    I missed this when you posted it earlier. Thank you for the information. That is very helpful. The answer to my own question appears to be (as is the case here) that the presiding authorities take the position of prohibiting action rather than compulsory action. From a cursory glance, it...

    Itch.io is shadowbanning or deleting NSFW and LGBTQ content

    Yes, but the mechanism of how they do that differs. As such, the approach to how they would be legally challenged or enforced would also differ. That's an example of how something was worded making a difference because an entity took advantage of small differences in wording. And that's your...

    Itch.io is shadowbanning or deleting NSFW and LGBTQ content

    In most cases, I agree, but not always. And maybe it is semantics, but sometimes semantics and how something is worded actually does matter. Example: When I was a college student, the State made the college promise not to raise tuition if they were given more State money. The college...
