    Gygax doesn't matter?

    Although Matt Snyder doesn't actually say the vast majority of the things that people are reading in to his thing, I simply can't believe that he couldn't foresee what he wrote having said things read into them. Also, I've heard Dust Devils is good stuff, though I've never seen a copy or played...

    He already links to Kim's list of free RPGs, so I assume he's checked it out...

    Any chance?

    Yay one-shots! Check out In a Wicked Age. Try (or buy ) The Shadow of Yesterday. Or do the same with Spirit of the Century.

    The line between politics and history

    Someone's actually reading my blog? I better go fix that improperly closed italics tag! Thank you for the validation, Mark. Umbran, your advice is right on the money: building a space where people can come to their own conclusions ("try reading about this") beats pushing my own conclusions any...

    4E or 3.5 or something else - what's in your future?

    Yay! I'm glad to hear that you like Thousand Suns; it's at the top of my to-buy list. Off-topic-ish: Will I see a review of it by you on rpg.net (or here), or are you out of the reviewing scene now?

    XP For Defeating a Creature Twice

    Ooh, why didn't I think to say that, too. Good advice Shilsen!

    XP For Defeating a Creature Twice

    Why don't you give him another trick the second time around? An ambush, a trap, or a tanglefoot bag or three?

    The line between politics and history

    So I'm working on two different role-playing game projects that are about civil disobedience and rebellion. I will not use real-world examples in the promotion of these games. However, if my games ever get fans, would a discussion of, say, Mahatma Gandhi's Satyagraha as something to emulate in...

    4E or 3.5 or something else - what's in your future?

    Other: I'm going to play a hell of a lot of Spirit of the Century and other FATE stuff. ...and buy the 4e books and try to play that too :D

    D&D 4E Highlights from the D&D Convention .... 4E reaction (after over 14 hrs of play)

    I feel that the wizard pre-gen has at least one more thing going for him than you gave him credit for: Mage Hand has a minor action means that he can return the fighter's or paladin's thrown weapons. That and the bloodhunt racial ability gives the wizard's player something to think about when...

    Looking for a free game system

    Then there are the crazy complicated free game like JAGS. http://www.jagsrpg.org/ Anyone know if Thrash is still hosted anywhere? Runequest Slayers is over 200 pages, too... -George Austin Edit: Oh yeah, and what Jeph said.

    D&D Experience: Two Page Spreads on Display

    Sadly, I never paged through the MMIII, so I can't tell you. The Bodak's look was not a big departure from it's 3e design- I can say that I prefer the 4th Edition artist's rendering. I just now noticed that Xath has a blurry picture of the Monster Manual spread up on her Picasa gallery...

    D&D Experience: Two Page Spreads on Display

    I hadn't seen this piece of information anywhere, so I figured I'd post it here: In a glass case, along with a Fire Giant and a few other miniatures, Wizards was showing off a pair of two-page spreads. On display was a proof of pages 176 and 177 of the Player's Handbook and pages 36 and 37 of...

    D&D 4E Vote for your favorite 4E PHB cover!

    And continuing from Claudio Pozas' last post... Think of how many depictions there are of The Flash facing right; when I close my eyes, that's how I picture him. This is a measurable tendency that artists and graphic designers exploit all the time.

    New Player's Handbook Cover Art!

    OK everyone. Repeat after me: Anything Reynolds can do is still a million times better than Rob Liefield. Now there's something to shudder about. *Shudder*
