    Trailer SEPTEMBER 5 | Official Trailer

    Good question they brought up. Munich could be a good film to follow it up with. Sad story.

    Personal enlightenment in a fantasy setting

    Pride/Lust - Rich man has stolen a bunch of property and land from villagers, resulting in homeless roving band of gypsy that are stereotyped to be entertainers, theives, and cut throats (all false stereotypes of what they really are). They need to find proof of this and restore the land to the...

    Ravenloft: Heir of Strahd Cover, Synopsis Revealed

    Maybe, or thinking that this group of adventurers would last less than 12 hours in Ravenloft. One trip to the village and they'd either have to slaughter the entire village as the villagers take them (most rightly) for the monsters they are and want to execute them on the spot, or they die from...

    GMs - Do you get bored when you're a player?

    For me, it depends on the GM/DM. If they are a good GM, it is not a problem and flows naturally. If it is not a good GM...well...that's where you start to miss being the GM.

    Best Horror Role Playing Game

    D&D ran as an actual horror game. Not many know how to pull it off, but when they do...it's probably one of the better ones. It helps to have a critical injury table that's more open though (roll a 1, there's a critical injury...whether in combat or not...though you could make it so that the...

    Castles&Crusades: Is this "The One"?

    I didn't get the new printings as I thought the changes would be minimal (plus, I was out of country at the time their kickstarter was going on for most of the time and was unable to even access that kickstarter if I had wanted to due to my location), so I wasn't too concerned about trying to...

    AD&D 2E Did The Complete Fighter's Handbook kill "Zero to Hero"?

    So, in 0 AD&D a 1st level Fighting-Man is a Veteran. Veteran does not indicate that this is a zero. It does not indicate it's a hero, but it's definately someone who has been trained and is somewhat better than a zero. It's normally someone who has some experience and wiser in their career...

    Dune: Prophecy

    We were talking about Dune in other threads, and then I found I'm late to the ballgame in knowing about this coming out. Looks interesting. The ad makes it look pretty darn good to tell the truth. Ads can be deceiving, of course, but this looks pretty cool. Supposedly based after...

    D&D 5E (2024) DMG 5.5 - the return of bespoke magical items?

    But, they had the same characters in some parts... However, even if we just go with the Fellowship, that's 17 years, and as one has pointed out above, you also have a two month stop over as well. That's at least 50 days right there. No, no character will make weapons during an adventure...

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Cartoon Character Stats & Magic Items

    Highest bonus is actually +4 (Legendary) as per the DMG 2014. And, I'd think the way Venger was after the items...they'd be at least artifact level. He was taking on Tiamat on his lonesome! His daily expendables are probably more valuable than the weapons the have the heroes using! You are...

    Trailer Marvel Studios | Look Ahead | Disney+

    The only things that really looked interesting to me in that commercial was Ironheart and Wonderman. Other stuff may seem interesting in the future, but just from that ad, it's just those two.

    Spoilers Severance (Apple TV)

    One problem with this is that, yeah, you may not have to deal with the drudgery of some jobs, but your life would seem so much shorter. Imagine, you work 8 hours a day (does it include your commute?) and then you commute and hour. You stay awake for 4 hours and then get ready for bed and sleep...

    (+) A.I in general

    What I want is a personal AI that can do the things I want it to. I want an AI that I can feed into it my own writing, and then use it to write a book from with the right extensive prompts (If I do that, is that a book written by me or not? As the only sources would be my own writing?). I...

    D&D 5E (2024) DMG 5.5 - the return of bespoke magical items?

    YES!!! Between the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings Gandalf literally can spend decades making whatever he wants, if he was under the D&D rules. Between when the little girl is born and they start their adventure, living in the village. They do a few heists, but overall...YES! They have a...

    Ravenloft: Heir of Strahd Cover, Synopsis Revealed

    I don't know. The only reading books my grandkids seem to get for fun are the ones I buy them. Half read ebooks, the other half refuse to read ebooks. The only ones they buy are the ones in college who buy textbooks they are required to buy. PS: The ones who read ebooks didn't really read...

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Cartoon Character Stats & Magic Items

    With those weapons, one has to wonder why Venger even thought it worth his time, much less effort to try to get them. It would seem that he would spend more time trying to get an artifact or two rather than some weapons fit for lower level characters.

    D&D General Top 5 Best Non-WotC adventures?

    It's a set of three adventures that Paizo put out that are a mini-adventure path of sorts (sort of like the Crown of the Kobold King was originally, before they made it a hardcover). It starts with Crypt of the Everflame (where you have an origin and a startling turn of events). It then is...

    Living Romans in the Americas Plausible*?

    I have no problem with it. I mean, if you look at the New Testament and that this "Carpenter" actually was killed and died, and then resurrected after 3 days in the grave....and then ascended up to heaven and was actually THE GOD, the one and only, almighty, Omniscient being... Are we really...

    I AM KING OF THE WORLD! Ranking James Cameron's Films

    So, going back a few pages... I'm actually a pretty big Dungeon Seige fan. It's a great series of games. Each is basically a very different game than the one that came before it. The First one has the Best music. The music is just...well...awesome. However, I'd put it as the weakest of...

    D&D General Top 5 Best Non-WotC adventures?

    Paths of Immortality doesn't get enough mention, though outside the PF1e circles I'm not sure how many are even aware of it. Early Paizo after their WotC split had some of it's most awesome material. Unafraid to try and do new things, and absolutely hitting homeruns while doing it.
