Believe it or not, I feel Believe it, I feel like it is the "o" in Eberron. It's octagonal shape with a filled center and diagonal cut would be right at home on a sci-fi wargame cover. It gives a sort of energy weapon muzzle vibe. The whole set piece is also a Frankenstein homage, which is...

Seems the second cover is leaning more into the science fiction vs the magi-punk.

Visual designs are a big inspiration in ttrpgs! The right piece of art can really get your table revved up to do a game. I had that happen to myself recently. I could never get my head around duck folk in a lot of the d100 games. Then the art in Dragonbane changed my mind. Duck assassin, sign...

Waaaay in the back. The white ring really blends in with the pale blue sky. Art is subjective. While I think that is a cool looking airship, it doesn't scream Eberron to me. Same for the warforged. Very cool design but says more old school Asimov robot on a book cover for me than a sentient...

That's probably what it is but it's sort of a lose/lose for WotC. Some people will want a whole new book so all the information is one place (one reason a "core" book from a 3 pp usually sells better) while others don't want to re-buy lore they already have (as Eberron always starts in the same...

It seems they are playing around with more Art Nouveau. especially with the warforged. It's not a deal breaker but I'm not a fan. Going forward, Eberron will probably be my default go to. I want to embrace more of that pulp/noir vibe and I am happy to hear they are providing guidelines to...

It seems part of that mental make up is that there is someone to conveniently blame for anything - including their own mistakes. Overall - yikes and disappointing. I began in 1984, in the 9th grade, out in the sticks. I wasn't aware of the City State until sometime much later thanks to the...

I used this cube dungeon (as just a solid cube) a while back and we had a blast.

I think that's probably more true that most people know. It seems that the only real businesses at this point are private ones, not because of the lack of SEC oversight but because they stay under the radar as the sharks trying to dismantle every publicly owned business they can take over thanks...

Dennis Detwiler said he came back to ttrpgs due to the bizarreness of the video game industry where a publisher company's owners were almost embarrassed to be owning a video game company but yet they kept churning and burning these businesses to make the easy money out of each company sale.

I am confused, you are on one right now.

On BlueSky, Hall said, "I feel nothing." I was lucky enough to chat with him once, great guy. I hope he lands somewhere great very soon.

Ah Ah. I must have been wisdom that comes in those final four years. In my 41 years of GMing, it seems ToTM or grid really depends on the group at the table. Some have a harder time visualizing what is described, and need visual aides, while some GMs have a harder time communicating a combat...

The castle intrigued me most. They are a separate product and a little more expensive but I'm thinking about it.

I am about to wrap up the Dragon Emperor campaign for the second time. I've enjoyed both times. That is a fib. Instead of the Dragon Emperor, it has actually been a mash up of that game and the default campaign for Free Leagues YZE fantasy game, Forbidden Lands. So both campaigns have been a...

It also appears that Troll Lord is expanding their print shop and building a second print shop. https://myemail.constantcontact.com/TLG-s-NEW-FACTORY---Tariff-News.html

Saw these guys on a sponsored FB ad. I know nothing about them but figured I would pass on the news to those who would be better judges. https://herotime1.com/

I always admired Star*Drive goal of trying to create a setting that would do for sci-fi what vanilla fantasy settings do for fantasy. In fantasy, a lot gamers ask, "Which forest do the elves live? Great. Where do the dwarves dig? Fantastic, let's make a PC and go." In sci-fi, gamers seem to...
