    Who's going to Gen Con?

    My wife and I will be there. Our room is booked at The Westin. Looking forward to finding some Bulldogs and Hollow Earth Expeditions games this year. The ENnie Awards will be great this year, too. We've got some new booth decorations on the way and some other ideas kickin' around.

    Review: Hacklopedia of Beasts

    If it helps, I clicked on the "Reviews" link, next in News/Reviews and then "New Thread." It didn't give me any indication of required permissions at all.

    Review: Hacklopedia of Beasts

    First, it should be noted that the Hacklopedia of Beasts is designed for use with HackMaster Basic and the current version of HackMaster currently in development. While it is beaten in sheer number of monsters by books such as Frog God Game's Complete Tome of Horrors, the Hacklopedia of...

    D&D 4E Did WOTC lie to 4e players about 5e?

    Well, depending on how the NDA was worded, I imagine anyone at WotC with any knowledge of 5E was not allowed to even hint at acknowledging its existence or development, and if that were the case it would look really bad if they were asked "Should I buy 4E stuff?" then answer with...

    If Hasbro Pulls the Plug....

    I would be sad, but I have all the books I need from basic D&D (my basic: BECMI/RC), AD&D, AD&D 2E, Pathfinder, and 4E to keep playing forever. Not to mention all the other games I have, so I would just have to step up my own creation of new material. Someone else in the industry would step in...

    Time for WotC to start officially supporting older editions?

    Most of the books up until 3rd edition had mostly, if not entirely B&W interiors, so they could set up a POD service with little to no overhead. Sure, you wouldn't get the cool parchment-effect paper, but so what? That's what you get if you seek out one of the original printings. I'd be...

    Looking for a great sci-fi RPG

    A lot of good games have already been mention, but one I would recommend is Bulldogs!. It's a FATE-based system that seems tailor made for a scum & villainy/Firefly-type Space Opera game. The feel of the game reminds me of the Brian Daley Han Solo novels. Plus, it has sexist, womanizing...

    Pathfinder 1E Thinking of Buying Pathfinder

    The Beginner Box is also a good place to start. It has everything you need to play a Pathfinder game from levels 1-5 and will give you a good base from which to learn the system. You can then add to your game with the core rules and other supplements.

    Owning multiple copies of RPG books

    I do have multiple copies of certain RPG books, particularly ones where I know I'll want to run it and have to provide at least one table copies for players who are too cheap/unable to pick up a copy of their own. Shadowrun 4th Ed. (Core book & 20th Anniversary Edition) Star Wars RPG (Revised &...

    WotC didn't necessarily save D&D

    I can't really say whether or not I think any of WotC's decisions are financially sound without knowing details of the company's finances. I can say, however, that the latter developments of 3.X and my experiences with 4E actually revived my interest in older editions of D&D, particularly...

    Wings of Twilight

    While I realize the unlikelihood of anyone waiting with baited breath until the print version is available, if you don't mind ordering it directly, the Print Edition is now available from CreateSpace. It will be more widely available, but it takes time to work its way through the distribution...

    Game Type--How Do You Play?

    When I play, I usually cower with my hands over my eyes awaiting the imminent death of my PC. When I GM, I run a mixture of a sandbox and structured campaign. There are certain plot points I have that work together to form a metaplot, but I'll let the players go off the rails. I figure if they...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Beginner Unboxing

    Neat. It's been so long since I've GMed a complex game like Pathfinder, I might pick this up to give myself a nice refresher.

    (WHUMP!) My Tome of Horrors just arrived

    It's quite a bit lighter than I expected for its bulk. No doubt due to the paper stock. I look forward to inflicting it on my players.

    (WHUMP!) My Tome of Horrors just arrived

    Why do you think it's called the Tome of HORRORS? You're stuck, pal.

    Poll: Which Systems are you playing or have played in the last year?

    In addition to the options on the poll that I've actually played, I've also played Paranoia (2nd ed.), Hollow Earth Expedition, and Eclipse Phase (PbP). Oh, and I counted Rules Cyclopedia D&D with OD&D, because once you start breaking down D&D by revisions therein lies madness. Madness, I say...

    [Eclipse Phase] Saturian Scavengers

    The recording device is pretty standard, though it seems odd for a scientific facility like this to have a stand-alone recording device instead of just using their computers. It appears to be the type of device one would use to record a holographic journal and appears to be password protected...

    [Eclipse Phase] Saturian Scavengers

    If your muse is in control of the saucer, then you should roll for the muse. As you all investigate the medical lab, you hear a chime come over the habitat's PA system. It is followed by a voice, "It is now twenty-one hundred hours. Sleep cycle lighting will be activated in thirty minutes...
