when selling RPG products? Why else would people be in the business of selling RPGs? I can stay at home and make anything I like with all the integrity I want too, its not like my module is suddenly going to be world changing

I remember watching an interview a few years back about a New Zealander who had won a TV talent show in China. He played it down saying that it was only a "small regional station" with about 40 million viewers - that blew my mind, 40 million is a lot, yet its only a fraction of the total market...

Dont forget the Sovereign Knights of Malta founded 1048 and, despite having no territory, still recognised as a Sovereign entity with a seat on the UN. It could well be that the PDKs are recognised as having international impact and being as significant and powerful as some nations

One campaign Ive thought about is doing Birthrights King of the Giant Downs from the monster perspective - ie PCs respond to the call from the Asweign Ghuralli to help unite the monster tribes and resist encroachment by the Rjurik settlers and murderous 'Adventurers'.

Jubensha - scripted LARPs are popular in China, with something like 30000 stores across the nation catering to it. Murder Mysteries and Romance of the Three Kingdoms are popular genre. Dungeons & Dragons, Call of Cthulhu and Vampire: the Masquerade have niche status in the Chinese market - but...

I'd associate Macau with T'u Lung as a former pirate enclave which has developed Trade Networks with foreign Rakshasa merchants. The Rakshasa have built both merchant houses and gambling dens which have become popular. The Rakshasa have also brought strange foreign clerics with them who have...

I've been thinking about Cultivation and what this means for Species like Kitsune or Vanara. For instance Sun Wukong despite being born of a stone egg begins life as a normal monkey, a mortal beast, ignorant and joyful, until he witnessed the death of another monkey and so dared to ask "how may...

A bit, mostly one-shots. Everything from goblins and orcs, through to Ghosts to Movie Monster style monster squads (Snake-Lamia, Flesh golem, Werewolf and Mummi) I even played a Willowisp psion once (does that count as a monster?). They are all on the "good" side though even if they arent good...

Theres a dynamic and growing RPG community in Korea with interest in DnD. Elves and Espresso is a game store cafe in Seoul. So not catering to that growing market would be a misstep. There are a couple of 3rd party products with Koryo material and lots of Fantasy K-Drama movies to draw...

Would Red Dwarf fit that - last human survivor on a derelict ship with a robot a hologram and an evolved cat?

Very much this, there are a tonne of Asian writers and designers in Asia - China, Japan, Korea, South East Asia who could be brought in to design a dynamic fantasy setting. I'd love to see a set of adventures akin to Radiant Citadel which then get expanded into their own culture-zones. Maybe...

Yeah, I always preferred Banneret as their name as it tied more to the Knight Commander they the class entailed. The Purple Dragon Knight lore origin starts with Prince Azoun (later King of Cormyr) who with the Cormyr military and Court Wizard managed to kill two dragons. In particular the...

looks like you've toggled the BB code off - click on the [ ]

I've just realised - Doctor Who is also about a dangerous criminal in a stolen spaceship

Yeah the Drakewarden is a great class and very well done, its needs more love :) I'm happy they've gone back to Banneret, even if the old version was a bit weak, it was a good support fighter - of course they should just go all in and call it Warlord/Marshal. I think the Purple Dragon Knight...

Blake-7 was very popular in the Anglosphere, even if it only got limited runs in the US and elsewhere. So given the ENWorlds demographic I guess its at least well remembered by a few of us

TEAM LAKE - SUBJECT: SHADE-9 With the Cultist contained and surrounded inside the transporter, Shade-9 scanned the structure itself, paying particular attention to the red crystal. There position had been compromised and there was no way of knowing how many mercenaries might follow. Was there...

Your dungeons arent all infested with bioluminescent slimes? What do the Gelatinous cubes feed on when there are no adventurers around?

Yeah thats another DnD trope which is a bit diabolical really. Devils are all about temptation and offering irrestible bargains that cost your immortal soul but the stats and art make them all battle beast ready to rend your flesh.

There were at least 12 Female Pharoahs of Egypt and 5 female Emperors in China, they make for some extraordinary characters. My current campaign takes place during the War of Spanish Succession 1701 - 1714 after Charles II of Spain died without issue and the Dutch-British-Austrian Alliance...
