    M.A.R. Barker, author of Tekumel, also author of Neo-Nazi book?

    I guess, maybe I’m alone here, but I don’t hide the forms of government in D&D settings. A ”benovelent” monarch who disappears opponents to their rule is pretty common and I portray as such. Do other people portray absolute monarchs as sunshine and rainbows and romanticize them? CRPGs often...

    M.A.R. Barker, author of Tekumel, also author of Neo-Nazi book?

    None of them do. But, “I stood up to a tyrant’s agents” “everyone should be free to pursue his or her livelihood” or “ I fight for those who cannot fight for themselves” are just a few traits of a revolutionary, yeah? You’re talking about ends, ends will be player specific but there’s dozens...

    Level Up (A5E) Steampunkette's Writing Requests

    So, I know A5e is about more and more rules and options but from a player perspective it can get overwhelming. I wonder if an article on, or system for, translating PC desires into characters would be worthwhile? Like, even regular 5e backgrounds and classes and subclasses can be a bit much...

    DCC Level 0 Character Funnel is a Bad Concept

    Curious about that, I’ve run a few funnels and there was none of that.

    DCC Level 0 Character Funnel is a Bad Concept

    Why would anyone track 24 characters on a grid? What I assume you mean by tracking positions. Don’t Do that. Um, overall, feels like a weird reaction. for me the funnel is like the best part of the system. Survival is pure chance, yeah. The idea is discovering your character through the...

    Ukraine invasion

    They keep it on site because there is literally nothing else they can do with it. Don’t know about other countries, but in the US they have to keep it on site because there are no other options, no place to send it and no permitted way to send it. Reactors are near rivers and other water...

    M.A.R. Barker, author of Tekumel, also author of Neo-Nazi book?

    You’ve since qualified about “ever” but i rather think it’s COMMON for players to have an ambition of remaking the fantasy world into a happier less repressive place. These sentiments are a rollable option for Ideals and Bonds on several backgrounds. Maybe not with Marxist reasoning, but do...

    D&D 5E (2014) My Five Favorite Things From Critical Role: Call of the Netherdeep

    Is it not weird that a guy who wrote thousands of hours of regular critical role adventures did not write this one? I mean, if it was critical role branded beer, sure, would not be surprised to learn Matt Mercer did not brew it, just tasted and approved, but it’s a d&d adventure with “Critical...

    D&D 5E (2014) My Five Favorite Things From Critical Role: Call of the Netherdeep

    Why do you need to believe his participation was more than it was. All I’m observing is if no writer credit did not help writ adventure, weird.

    D&D 5E (2014) Realism and Simulationism in 5e: Is D&D Supposed to be Realistic?

    You weird wall of text people are silly. Not reading. D&D is not realistic, it’s not supposed to be realistic. It never was, and it was never intended to be. Period. FFS, is a game. People often take it too seriously, and argue game minutia as if life or death were at stake, they are not...

    D&D 5E (2014) My Five Favorite Things From Critical Role: Call of the Netherdeep

    Why is Matt Mercer not credited as a writer in this book? Did he really have no hand in writing it? Like Wizards just took his world and did an adventure? Seems Weird.
