    Artist Wayne England RIP

    What an amazing artist. My gaming shelves are full of his fantastic work. He will be missed.

    The EN World Best Sellers List 4Q2015

    Outsourcing the adventure creation satisfies the same need and allows the publisher to continue selling the more lucrative core products, while still demonstrating that the product is actively supported. That is actually a pretty shrewd choice.

    The EN World Best Sellers List 4Q2015

    Adventures almost never outsell core books. If they do, it is just for a very brief period immediately after release. It is normally the case that player focused core items sell the most, followed by DM general campaign items and then adventures. In the past, some publishers mistakenly looked...

    You Can Play TORMENT: TIDES OF NUMENERA Tomorrow (Sort Of)

    I backed the KS, but I'm going to try to resist playing the Early Access/Kickstarter Beta version because I want my first time through to be glorious and bug-free. That, and I find my time available for gaming extremely limited these days. I can't wait to play the full version once it is done...

    Hero Lab Character Creator Is Coming To 5E Very Soon!

    I think it took us roughly 15 hours to get the SRD content into Fantasy Grounds, test it and proof-read it. We were also able to short-cut a lot of it because we already had templates and tools built for when we did this for the PHB, MM and DMG modules. Starting from scratch would have taken us...

    The Entire D&D 5E SRD Is Now On FANTASY GROUNDS

    Hey DocSun, be sure to check out the wiki on building characters. http://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/5E_Character_Sheet Fantasy Ground's focus is not on providing a character builder (although it has some of those features), but in unlocking a very automated and easy to use combat...

    The Entire D&D 5E SRD Is Now On FANTASY GROUNDS

    It is either a 1-time purchase OR a $10/mo monthly subscription. If you are just looking at using it as a tool to manage your local campaign or your players will get their own license, it drops to a 1-time $39 payment or $4/mo.

    The Entire D&D 5E SRD Is Now On FANTASY GROUNDS

    That's understandable. As cool as it is, I suspect many people will still want to go with the full versions at some point. It considerably helps those who already own the books and didn't want to turn around and buy stuff twice -- especially without really knowing what it would look like. Now...

    The 20 RPG News Stories Which Got You Talking This Year

    I look forward to a new year and what we'll be talking about for 2016. The only thing I hope is that the news are mostly positive. With all the acquisitions that occurred in 2015, I can imagine this being the year when people start launching new things.

    Star Wars Spoilers Thread [Spoilers]

    Overall, I enjoyed the movie, but there was something I couldn't quite put my finger on that I didn't like about it. The new characters were all likable and the acting was much better than the prequels. Even when Kylo Ren was throwing a temper tantrum, it didn't grate on my nerves like Jar Jar...

    D&D 5E (2014) Official Baldur's Gate Portrait Packs available for Fantasy Grounds

    Let me look into this. It should be doable. PC portraits automatically convert for use as tokens if you don't already assign a token; however, if you want to use the images for NPCs, I can see value in having them also defined specifically as tokens.

    D&D 4E 4E DnD Insider Moving; No Longer Available To New Subscribers

    I liked them and kept my subscription active for probably a year and a half after I last played D&D 4E. I had a blast playing 4E over Fantasy Grounds, but I had also built up a nice set of data modules so I could automate the majority of the combat. I would use the character builder from DDI...

    D&D Goes to Work Part III: The Gamified Workplace

    I feel confident that decades spent as a player and as a DM have helped me to become both a better team player and manager within various commercial business pursuits. I managed to avoid a work-force TPK, leveled up myself and my team and even polymorphed an employee or two and they liked it. :)...

    It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like RAVENLOFT

    Some of the pictures may have been going after that Gem and the Holograms audience. I loved Spelljammer. You just have to decide if you want 70's/80's rock glam and space hamsters in your version or not. I liked that the mode of transportation gave me an easy way to bounce back and forth...
