    D&D 5E (2024) Wargamer Takes Shot At WotC for Not Respecting Forgotten Realms Canon.

    I think a little perspective is warranted here. The article you linked to was posted a month ago. Wargamer seems to produce a lot of articles each day. Two days ago they posted 12 articles in a single day. The author of that article has published 25 articles on Wargamer in the last week. With...

    Your group is too big...

    One thing this video doesn't mention is that eventually a group with too many players will split and swarm, with a majority of the newer players buzzing away to find a new table to occupy. Once they do so, one of the players eats from the Royal Cheetos and transforms into a queen bee new DM...

    D&D General No One Reads Conan Now -- So What Are They Reading?

    There's been a lot of fantasy lit between Conan and now that's had, in my view, a big influence on RPGs: Harry Potter brought the idea of wizards to a new public understanding. Hunger Games made archery cool. Percy Jackson taught a whole generation about Greek mythology. Romantasy is a...

    D&D General No One Reads Conan Now -- So What Are They Reading?

    Do you have evidence to back this up? I'm not doubting you on it, but it's a pretty strong opinion posted without any data.

    THE SURFER Official Trailer (2025) Nicolas Cage

    I bet it all gets resolved with a couple of beers and a good sing-along around a beach fire.

    D&D 5E (2024) Dragon Delves Cover Revealed

    That pink dragon cover is awesome. I 100% support more covers in this style. I love how eye-popping and grungy it feels.

    Just this week...

    Jeez Morrus, nobody deserves to be treated like that, and especially not for hosting a community! Thanks for all you do, and thank you to the mod team as well. One of the reasons I like to spend time here is exactly because this is a pretty calm, more or less friendly community. I think it is...

    D&D 5E (2014) What could 5E do to make wealth worthwhile?

    I always thought it would be interesting to "gate" a campaign world off by character wealth. The characters start in the outer reaches of the kingdom. To access locations with better opportunities and items, they have to have gathered a certain amount of gold. Then the next location with even...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

    One thing I do wish had been different is making life beyond the wormhole a little different than in the Alpha Quadrant. As it was, the planets and people were basically the same as could be encountered by The Enterprise or the crew of ang other show. I'm not really sure what that would look...

    D&D General Did my players knock down an apartment building (in game)?

    The good news is they can replace it with a much more profitable high rise!

    D&D 5E (2014) What could 5E do to make wealth worthwhile?

    Charge them for adventuring hooks! "There's a free adventure, but it's just someone who needs their basement cleared of rats. On the other hand, for 200 gp you can unlock a quest called called Slay the Dragon..." ... In reality, I think some interesting ways to get characters to spend money...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

    I just finished a full watch of all seasons of DS9 (usually while cooking or washing dishes) and it's an incredibly special show to me. There are a few things that really make the show stand out to me: 1) Character Relationships This is an obvious one, but the way this show focuses on the...

    Kobold Press Announces 'Cozy' RPG Riverbank

    Cottagecore has been a thing since the 2010's. I think it speaks to a romantic view of the self-sustained cottage lifestyle, tending your garden, making your own jam, etc. It also intersects with a lot of fantasy and children's literature like A Wind in the Willows, the Secret Garden... You...

    Kobold Press Announces 'Cozy' RPG Riverbank

    We've been reading my son a book called Little Witch Hazel that feels like it fits this genre. The main character is a tiny little witch who goes about helping the animals, gnomes, and other creatures of the woods. The conflicts include raising a baby owl, finding the source of a mysterious...

    Planning a 3-Night RPG (and hiking) getaway (recommendations needed!)

    Just an update: it's starting today! I'm about to make the drive up to the cabin. I've got Honey Heist, Ironsworn, we all know 5e by heart, and I also wound up making my own 5e-lite game. It's going to be a blast.
