So I'm working on an adventure where I want to use slight variations on standard OGL monster manual monsters. For example giving goblins an alchemist fire attack. In cases like these how would you like to see the variant included? My two main ideas are a sidebar that just includes the new...

Is this the SRD you're looking at? http://media.wizards.com/2016/downloads/DND/SRD-OGL_V5.1.pdf It says plate for armor.

There's no shield to drop. 18 AC is all from plate, if you want to add a shield it would be up to 20. They already had parry in my copy, but fun fact I just looked up, WOTC removed it in later printings. http://dnd.wizards.com/articles/features/errata-may-2016 I haven't run it, but as printed...

A couple of small things: Are you including the short sword attack from their multiattack? Parry is a nice ability when paired with an already high AC.

That was my first thought too. Here are a few reasons why: There is a lot in common D&D so it will be easy to pick up. It has a 1st edition feel with modern design ideas. It's more lethal than D&D, and I believe survival horror stops being survival horror if nobody ever dies. Use the a 0-level...

Here's a secret: You can completely ignore Kickstarter campaigns. If they campaign is successful the product generally comes on in normal stores after it's complete. Just pay attention to the stores you always used to.

One reasons it's hard to compare is that Golarion is such a "not Earth" setting, that you have to be always of the real world cultural equivalents. Eberron is further removed from our own world, so it can be more laid back about things.

I assume PCs can have bonuses to their rolls. The odds of success will depend on the bonus. Subtract the bonus from the TN, and then figure out the odds for that. I.E. If they have a +2, to hit a 13 they need to get and 11 on the dice, which would be 3/36.

Savage Worlds is another that seems to fit the bill.

Sneak Attack Press is excited to announce our newest release, Drakonheim: City of Bones. To save the city from disaster, Drakonheim made a deal with a cabal of necromancers. Now this cabal, the Gray Society, holds the real power in the city. Drakonheim is a fantasy city full of intrigue and...

I think what you're thinking of is more a small-press phenomenon than a Kickstarter specific thing. Kickstarter just makes it easier for small-press operations to get noticed.

I've read it but haven't played. It seems like a good setting. I'm not super familiar with Tales of Adventure, but in general the noir genre tends to be darker than pulp (hence the name). Heroes tend to be more flawed and situations are more ambiguous. There's more trying to survive and get by...

I think the reason is that Gumshoe is specifically targeted at running investigations, while I feel that something like Fate or World have a lot more options. If the designer wants to create a game that's anything other than weekly investigations, they are probably not going to use Gumshoe to do it.

It's positive, but I'm more concerned about hotel space than event space.

With just two hours left we are just $175 from the full-color stretch goal. We can do it!

We've got 48 hours left, and we are less than a thousand dollars away from our full color stretch goal!

Sneak Attack Press is excited to announce the release of Fire Queen of Dover for Savage Worlds, the latest in the Tales of the Great Lakes series for Broken Earth. Word has spread from fishing village to fishing village about the Fire Queen protecting the town of Dover. She is a powerful...

Thanks! The short campaign length is a bit of an experiment. A big part of it is because Kickstarter campaigns always slow down in the middle, so I wanted to see what happened when you shortened it, and also the funding goal was relatively small, so I figured it didn't need a super long campaign.

We are now passed two stretch goals, giving us pretty maps and all original art. Color is next. Oh and we've passed 100 backers!

We've reached our initial goal, and are well on the way to our first stretch goal!
