Over on RPGnet, a reader of this Let’s Read asked how the iron golem mecha works, and I figured others might be interested as well. It uses the stats as per the monster, but multiple PCs can climb inside. It still absorbs fire damage, but those inside take half the amount of said damage due to...

Chapter 3: Under the Sun Sandy deserts, rocky badlands, and various other kinds of desolate wastelands, these one-shots take place in areas where the environment itself is a deadly threat all its own. Some of the more notable adventures include Flower Power, where a druid hires the PCs to...

Quote from the front page: This is concerning news. The wiki was a valuable resource for the setting, and I hope that as much of the old articles get restored.

Official store page. While the most popular 5e adventures are longer campaigns, a significant amount of gaming groups cannot commit to such lengthy endeavors. Be it testing the waters with new players, giving people the opportunity to try out alternate PC builds, or just a short change of pace...

Beast World One Night at Holly’s by Zeusdex of Fur Affinity. While the worlds covered so far in this thread have certain anthropomorphic people with prominent roles in history and society, we haven’t had one where said groups were front and center. Enter the Beast World, a relatively new...

The linked Discord already has someone violating the "no politics" rule and hasn't really been criticized for it yet as far as I saw. It was when someone posted their own YouTube video about the removal of drow and orcs. The video maker also talked about Jeremy Crawford making changes to remove...

Vinyotian D10 Encounters Vibin in Venice by SoftMare of Fur Affinity. These encounters are designed specifically for the Trade League of Vinyot. Conflict A group of bank robbers (Thug stats) are attempting to break open a portable safe. A magical trap is primed to go off if it is opened...

Normally I would let this thread fade into the ether, but with the recent post updating the thread I am inclined to point out that this book's publisher, Pulp Hummock Press, has come out in favor of the "anti-woke" side of the culture wars on their Twitter account. Not so much direct statements...

If he was detached and neutral, then he wouldn't gloss over key information. And he and Musk were criticizing a history book for...covering the history of D&D, including its creator's worldviews at the time. If talking about such material in history books isn't the time and place, then when is...

I talked about this guy in a post a few months ago. Professor DM is also an Elon Musk stan who sided with him in going after WotC and also downplayed why people were saying that Gary Gygax was bigoted by selectively quoting Gygax's statements to obfuscate the worst parts. So besides his...

I'm unsure of what would need to be "fixed," as my biggest criticisms of the setting's generic nature is tied to the presentation of Solasta itself. As a video game using the 5e rules, that's actually its strength, as it gives a clear baseline for which the majority of gamers will be familiar...

Chapter Eleven: Getting Paid This short chapter covers magic items and a new subsystem, the Wealth score. Magic items in the world of Xcrawl are divided into two categories. Artifact class items, which include permanently enchanted items whose methods of creation are mostly lost to history, and...

Chapter Eight: Xcrawl, aka the Games Comprising the first real outline of the setting proper, this focuses on Xcrawl’s history as a game, its impact on the entertainment industry, and various broad rules and regulations common to tournaments. Before recorded history, a great Cataclysm destroyed...

Echohawk made a very comprehensive collector's guide in this old thread. RPGnet has an index of KoK material sorted by Edition/system. KenzerCo looks to be selling all of the Kalamar products on their store, also separated by Edition/system. Including a few that aren't on Drive-Thru RPG, such...

Scarred Lands The world of Scarn is a land of dark fantasy, still reeling from a war between the primordial titans and their godly children. Although the titans are dead, the continent of Ghelspad finds itself facing new threats, from the tyrannical Calastian Hegemony expanding its territories...

Chapter Seven: Magic The longest chapter in the book, spells in the [Title] Crawl Classics series are known for their diverse, random effects. Much like how a warrior has to make an attack roll with their weapon swings, a caster must make a spell check in much the same manner, adding a d20 +...

Chapter Two: Skills A rather nasty power outage put me offline for most of yesterday, so to make up for it I have write-ups for two more chapters than I initially planned for tonight. As they are quite short, it wasn’t too onerous of a task. Much like Dungeon Crawl Classics, Xcrawl Classics...
