    Sell me on Numenera

    Thanks CharlesRyan, I'll have to point my Local Store to their Canadian Distributor and see if they can get a copy to look at. I'll have my books on the way in August, but I'm curious to see what's changed from the playtest docs to the final system, if any.

    Sell me on Numenera

    Download and listen to them at home? Gotta be a way to do that for you. One of the podcasts actually has Monte on it being interviewed. For Corrosive

    Let's Metagame: Star Wars EoTE

    Just watched the second part of the review. Nicely done, good concise information. And who doesn't enjoy a good scottish brogue. Like many other informative videos, nice use of images, not overloaded. And for some reason, I really like the Mascot.

    Sell me on Numenera

    The best thing at the moment Corrosive can do is listen to the podcasts on the Ninth World Hub. They give a general discussion on things from the Playtest without giving specifics. As mentioned by Morrus it'll probably be the best until the NDA's are lifted with the release... I can say I...

    Numenera Products

    You can pretty much hit up the Numenara kickstarter page for what will be released shortly or the coming future: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1433901524/numenera-a-new-roleplaying-game-from-monte-cook As Oakheart above shows, the Devil's spine is the three non-exclusive adventures...

    Shadowrun 5E - July 11th

    From what I've read and discussed with a friend, it seems like Shadowrun 5th ed is a refinement and hopefully improvement over the 4th ed Anniversary edition.

    D&D 5E (2014) Monster knowledge checks

    He means that the "General" knowledge (told around the fire-pit) might not be accurate compared to well studied and researched knowledge located within a library or scholar's notes. [ although that has a chance to be wrong/outdated as well :) ]

    Here is some player feedback posted on the official Fan forum site: http://ninthworldhub.com/forum/topics/post-game-interview-after-the-european-premiere?xg_source=activity

    Vote for your "most anticipated" RPG of 2013

    I'd say my order starting from the most is Numenara, Star Wars, Shadowrun 5ed, and 13th Age. Haven't seen the rest to make any determinations.

    Numenera Cover

    I could be wrong, but I believe Ebooks covers the PDF's. Tales of Numenara came in PDF, Mobi and ePub formats all together, the Core Book releases may be similar.

    Tell me about STAR WARS: EDGE OF EMPIRE

    You could probably file off the serial numbers and drop Jedi/Force (what little there is in Edge of the Empire). Since it's so player/DM driven, you could probably swap out the tech levels to higher or lower with a little bit of work. You might even swap the Force Sensitive over to a...

    Tell me about STAR WARS: EDGE OF EMPIRE

    There is a nice little write up on the game from FFG on their website, with a basic covering of the dice mechanic. http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_news.asp?eidn=4200

    Tales from the Ninth World

    I've downloaded, haven't had a chance to read it though. Skimmed through the Preview of the Core Book, it looks gorgeous so far. Love the little sidebar page references for more info, like paperback hyper-linking.

    Numenera - Uk Availability/Release Date

    From my kickstarter notifications regular editions will be mailing early august, and customized books (signed) middle of august. On the pre-orders page there is a note that they'll be putting up a form that people can print off and take into local stores with ordering info. I have no idea on...

    D&D 5E (2014) I think I miss flat-footed, talk me out of it?

    You could apply the Massive Damage rules recently introduced, for a Coup de Grace. Effectively if you do more than double their hp in damage it's an outright kill. I know they were meant for PC's death and dying rules, but that easily translates over to NPC's.

    DND - Chronicles of Mystara - Penny Arcade, PVPOnline & Chris Straub Playing Live Right now!!

    The video starts about 13min in with the gang. I don't normally see the ads as I use ad-block on sites, (disabling on those I want to support). Here is the Steam page with the gameplay and system details for the game: http://store.steampowered.com/app/229480/ The XP machine isn't the main...

    DMs to pay for D&D Encounter materials?

    I think this is a good move for both Wizards and FLGS, as they have product to sell regarding DND in the coming months. Although the specialty reprints are nice, they are infrequent, and for some a tough sell. Here Wizards is upping the content of the free to play packs with extra maps, and...

    Kingkiller Books

    What I like about the series is that it feels different compared to others in the genre in the telling. When I read the two books I noticed two writing sytles at work, the current timeline in the Inn has one feel, while the replay of Kvothe's story has a much more mechanical feel to it for me...

    DND - Chronicles of Mystara - Penny Arcade, PVPOnline & Chris Straub Playing Live Right now!!

    I don't believe single player requires online, no. However, it's a digital download only, so you need to be online to purchase it. Looking forward to getting it on Steam myself for local playback on PC, although I'll use the Logitech gamepad I have for it. And here is the recorded playback...

    Implanted Psicrystal

    Seems it might be from this third party book: http://www.rpgnow.com/product_reviews.php?currency=GBP&manufacturers_id=744&products_id=24809&it=1 "The implanted Psi crystal is pretty self explanatory. It also requires a feat to do and a bit of experience from the psion." Fourth paragraph in...
