    Is open source a losing proposition for new rpg's

    For this kickstarter shipping is to be charged via backerkit so shipping costs aren't counted in the final pledge total. So the amount collected goes towards only paying for the production of the product. And the game itself has already been released as previews etc so I'm not sure how much...

    Let's Talk About Fantasy heartbreaks and other FRPGs

    I thought when compared to AD&D 2nd Edition (which I was playing at the time) they were perhaps better rules. They addressed some issues I had with with multi/dual classing, had a skills system, and had very evocative classes. Unfortunately the system was never updated.

    Let's Talk About Fantasy heartbreaks and other FRPGs

    My first non-D&D fantasy RPG was Middle-Earth Role Playing, more commonly known as MERP. My group played as a break from our usual AD&D 2ND Edition game. My favorite non-D&D fantasy RPG is Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay (WFRP). Neither I would call a fantasy heartbreaker because one other...

    RPG Print News – Cubicle 7, Chaosium, Free League, Arc Dream, FrostByte, and More

    I was not.... but now that you mention it I cannot see why you cannot and given your lack of interest in the AoS setting, yeah, sure. Warhammer Age of Sigmar - Soulbound core rules provides guidelines to creating custom Archetypes, and while you'll not have career paths to navigate (which is...

    [Adamant] FAR WEST Kickstarter Launched

    There still is a website with artwork. I think the game is in development hell of the developer's own making. As an aside, the appearance of this thread made me think a new kickstarter for the game was being launched.

    Achtung Cthulhu 2d20 Makes World War II Even Weirder

    When will this prequel be available to pre-order? Is it a stand-alone game?

    Estimated delivery is March 2023 for the PDF, October 2023 for the standard hardcover. So it’s not anticipated.

    The Proper Use of Nudity in FRPG Art

    I am not an American, but perhaps "niche market" is not exactly accurate for movies. "Smaller market" may be better since an R-rated movie has excluded children under 13 (and their parents who are looking for a movie to take their children to) from its audience. This isn't to say that targeting...

    The Proper Use of Nudity in FRPG Art

    I think the fundamental question for a publisher is "who do I think my target audience is and will my product appeal to them". If a publisher thinks their target audience is everyone yet includes gratuitous nudity then they are fooling themselves because its likely many potential buyers will...

    Vote For The Most Anticipated RPG of 2022!

    I was looking at the creation of a thread with poll, and looks like I might have been wrong. Older versions of the forum software may have had this behaviour, but perhaps no longer. So I am now as puzzled as you unless behind the scenes there is a brief delay before the poll shows up.

    Vote For The Most Anticipated RPG of 2022!

    I think you have to create the thread first, then add the poll. So there is a brief time when the thread exists but the poll does not.

    One Ring 2E - Who's Doing What With It?

    I haven't done anything yet. Seems unfair to start something without the official dice. ;)

    Alternatives to 5E (I ask for no particular reason...)

    Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. Or perhaps its slightly handsomer twin brother Warhammer Age of Sigmar - Soulbound.

    Nominate your MOST ANTICIPATED RPG of 2022

    I think Dune being nominated for 2019, 2020 and 2021 (winning in 2020 and tying for first place 2021) means that it's the expected release date at the time of the nomination. For clarification does this include PDF-only releases? Or if the PDF is released first in one year, and the physical...

    Achtung Cthulhu 2d20 Makes World War II Even Weirder

    Just to note: that rpg.net link is 5 years old. I wouldn't hold my breath too. Plus the developer has gone through a personal tragedy since then. This also highlights a problem with using systems not under your control for games and supplements - Savage Words and Call of Cthulhu both have new...

    Why Do You Hate An RPG System?

    MERP was a simpler version of Rolemaster. I've had similar happen to me with Rolemaster - spent an entire session creating characters, and next session everyone dies. This did not make me hate Rolemaster (nor MERP), just that these games should not be played as if the characters are high-level...
