    TTRPGs that have a "Wagon Train to the Stars" feel?

    Based off of the initial concept for Star Trek, this focuses on science fiction centered around a group of interstellar explorers visiting strange new worlds. In some cases it's for research purposes, others to harvest and exploit the resources of other planets, and in some cases settlers...

    D&D 5E (2014) The popularity of horror adventures/settings for 5e

    An interesting thing I've noticed is that products with a strong horror emphasis do very well, both in official and 3rd party spaces. On the official side of things, Curse of Strahd is the most popular of the WotC adventures for this edition by far. And the semi-official DM's Guild has an awful...

    D&D 5E (2014) [Let's Read] Dr. Dhrolin's Dictionary of Dinosaurs

    This chapter creates a variety of humanoid dinosauroid creatures who have achieved sapience, using what the authors refer to as speculative biology to map out what processes dinosaurs would go through in order to attain a human-like anatomy. This section includes a new language known as...

    D&D 5E (2014) [Let's Read] Dr. Dhrolin's Dictionary of Dinosaurs

    The book talked about both of these things, but I didn't include them for reasons of space and choosing what to highlight. Got to leave some things for the readers to find on their own, after all!

    D&D 5E (2014) [Let's Read] Dr. Dhrolin's Dictionary of Dinosaurs

    I’ve been taking it slow on Christmas and the upcoming New Year’s, so this post may be shorter than others. But progress is progress! This chapter covers dinosaurs created or requested by people who backed a certain Kickstarter tier. Four out of six are real dinosaurs, while two are unique...

    D&D 5E (2014) [Let's Read] Dr. Dhrolin's Dictionary of Dinosaurs

    We’re in the home stretch! After this post we only have 6 more dinosaurs commissioned by KickStarter pledgers. After that we’ll be done with roughly 2/3rds of this book, being mostly player-facing options such as new races and subclasses. Mosasaurus is an oceanic aquatic predator that was an...

    D&D 5E (2014) [Let's Read] Dr. Dhrolin's Dictionary of Dinosaurs

    Note: While I plan to edit the prior posts, I did want to address the Player-Facing options for dinosaurs I thought were too high CR to use for Polymorph. The Yutyrannus, Paralititan, Hatzegopteryx, and Deinosuchus. As there are no Beasts in the official rules that go above CR 8, these dinosaurs...

    D&D 5E (2014) [Let's Read] Dr. Dhrolin's Dictionary of Dinosaurs

    I admit to having made some miscalculations in my understanding of the Polymorph spell. I presumed that the caster's potential Beast forms could be half the target's Challenge Rating or level when in reality it is equal to or lower. This will make me rethink some of the Player-Facing options...

    I was able to find out a way to do it just with Adobe Acrobat, but I still appreciate you giving a helping hand! Thank you for sharing all of this! It was quite interesting to read and watch.

    D&D 5E (2014) [Let's Read] Dr. Dhrolin's Dictionary of Dinosaurs

    Dating around 120 million years ago during the Early Cretaceous period, the Crato Formation is located in northeastern Brazil and famed for having some of the best-preserved fossils in the world. While this has been a blessing for research, it has also made the region a target for black market...

    D&D 5E (2014) My Everyday Heroes Conversion & Builds

    The only one I might do sometime in the future is John McClane from Die Hard. I'll need to watch the movie first in order to get a good feel for his backstory and capabilities. Any others are unlikely tbh. Much like my reviews, I don't take requests and do what strikes my fancy at the moment...

    D&D 5E (2014) [Let's Read] Dr. Dhrolin's Dictionary of Dinosaurs

    Note: Quite a few dinosaurs in this book don’t have one size category, instead listing two. This is likely due to the fact that a few dinosaurs only have juvenile fossils discovered so far, meaning that more accurate surveys of their average size are harder to determine. The Yixian Bolong is the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Everyday Heroes corebook + Cinematic Adventures line is on Humble Bundle for $18

    Yes. They do not include the adventures in the books or references to the IP of specific lines, rewording things to be more generic. For instance, instead of talking about Jaegers (Pacific Rim), they use the more broad term "mechs." The Vault also has new material not published in the other...

    Online Storefront When it comes to various mighty and dangerous life forms, there are few RPGs with bestiaries as large as Dungeons & Dragons’. Dinosaurs are naturally present, and the game hewed closely to pop culture tropes in detailing the most well-known ones such as the tyrannosaurus rex...

    Good news, I made a review for it here. Well, I mostly covered character creation, but I'm quite impressed with the system overall. I'm also regularly posting builds I made using it and the Vault supplement, to show a taste of what kinds of characters can be made in the system. Regarding...
