    Why Do You Hate An RPG System?

    FWIW- I ran a handful of sessions of a 4E Glorantha game and used Slayers , Rogues and Warpriests for PC's. Probably the only version of D&D that ever will work good for Glorantha.

    Why Do You Hate An RPG System?

    FWIW- if RQ is too Sim and the narrative of HEROQUEST is not your bag, please don't overlook 13th Age in Glorantha, it's absolutely fantastic and likely more appealing to typical D20 game fans .P.S. Bronze is mined from the bones of the dead gods as per RQ2. So while it's bronze, it's mythical...

    D&D 5E (2014) Best On Screen Representation: Barbarian

    For Barbarian- Grace Jones' character in Conan The Destroyer (what is it with that movie and D&D tropes)

    What are some D&D products that used a 3rd-party's IP?

    Yes- there were 3.X and 4E versions of Blackmoor and Dave had the Blackmoor Supplement on his website for free download for years (which kinda sucks, because Tim Kask & Steve Marsh did half the book's content and never got any credit for it)

    What are some D&D products that used a 3rd-party's IP?

    And these are now in print again (the modules, anyway)

    What are some D&D products that used a 3rd-party's IP?

    Empire of the Petal Throne They had a Lhankmar and Barsoom and Middle Earth Wargame (the latter two quickly removed) They produced some boardgames that were not their own designs (Tim Kask goes into detail about these in various vids- I cannot recall names at the moment- some were Australian...

    Dungeon World

    Excellent advice. I also cannot emphasize #1 enough. Don't speak in "moves" generally speaking- I'm constantly saying "what do you do" (And I always use the PC's name not the player)- If they come back with the name of a move, I tell them they need to tell me how they are doing it--...

    Pathfinder 1E Stuff That You Wish Paizo Had Done For Pathfinder 1E?

    I agree here- at least with what I was familiar with Golarion way back when The original 3.5 Gamemastery 32p adventures, and then the standard 32 page PF adventures were generally very good and easily adapted to most other settings/homebrew (and rules systems- which I did). I didn't like all of...

    Please stop telling me what I'm doing and why, Morrus. You have no idea what you are talking about. I'm not sneering at anyone or inventing anything- These mechanical effects have been in the game for over 40 freaking years. I've made my point. I'm out.

    You told me I should feel bad- I don't. I never said anyone else should feel anything.

    "Love" is not always a positive thing. How many people do horrible things in the real world in the name of "love". That said, this is a game of make believe- If you are going to complain about the mechanical effect of your character losing Free Will- then it should apply across the board.

    It's a game silly, I'm not going to feel bad about it.

    The person you quoted has a problem with a in game mechanic removing her imganary person' s free will- that's quotable but everyone can see it in the article, There are a WHOLE BUNCH of things in D&D that remove your imaginary person's free will.

    Sorry folks- No more Succubi. They charm me , kiss me, seduce me, take away my free-will- all for sex and love and eventually corrupt and destroy me. Heck they can even have me impregnate them and have Succubabies Why is this monster in D&D? It takes away my PC's free will and offends me...

    On Magic Users and Darts: What's Up With That?

    Havent read all the posts but- To me darts are the 70s option (so 1E) most of the Magic Users (I still use that term whenever I'm talking about D&D-old habits) in our games went with darts- they stayed out of range and used them for missle fire. I always figured they were those spike things...

    D&D 5E (2014) Could 5E Use A Branded Magazine In Stores (Again)?

    I'd love to see print magazines again ala The Dragon/Dungeon from inception through the mid to late 1990s (I let my subs lapse in the 3.x WOTC/Paizo era) As a freebie I cannot complain, but If Dragon + is in any indication of the quality and type of content we'd see in a WOTC D&D print...

    Pathfinder 1E Stuff That You Wish Paizo Had Done For Pathfinder 1E?

    For me to have any desire to continue to run PF1- It would have been an "Expert Box" to go with the Beginner Box- bringing levels up to 10-15 or so. Jumping into the full game with all the bloat of multiple massive tomes of classes and spells and feats and...just thinking about it makes me...
