Sigh. As expected, the negative, toxic and "clever" comments abound . . . And add in some gross comments about the elf rogue being heavy. If you don't care for the artwork, the characters, or the tone . . . that's fine. But the kind of comments we're seeing in this thread are the kind that...

Good point.

Thanks! However, that is a different game. AiME (Adventures in Middle Earth) is the older 5E adaptation of The One Ring (1st Ed). LotR5E (Lord of the Rings 5E) is the newer adaptation of The One Ring (2nd Ed). Similar games, but different enough this cheat sheet won't work well for the newer game.

I will! But . . . don't hold your breath. My neighbors all have multiple landscaping projects left started but never completed . . . I do the same thing, but with RPG projects . . .

Yup. I like the journey rules, but they are NOT well laid out. I'm working on a "cheat sheet" for my game on this and other LotR5E subsystems.

In the afterschool D&D Club I run . . . as soon as one kid says they want a pet for their character, they ALL want pets for their characters! I'm looking forward to this one! I almost picked up the Wardlings D&D variant from WizKids because it includes some sort of pet rules . . . curious about...

https://www.pathfinderinfinite.com/ It's a lot like the DM's Guild for D&D, but for Pathfinder! If you are a Pathfinder fan, it's worth checking out, IMO.

No, but as a teacher, thanks for the link!

What do I call it? Addiction. The monkey on my back. Oh, and soda. Unless it's actually Coke. Or better yet, Diet Coke.

I think those times are long gone, but YEAH . . . my math, physics, and reading improved from playing D&D obsessively as a middle and schooler. I don't see that happening with the current generation of middle-schoolers who show up for my afterschool D&D Club . . . but that could just be...

Probably, but . . . Bigots are loud, passionate, motivated, and organized. So they show up in numbers compared to the non-bigots that throw off such estimates. I don't think that's why the City State kickstarter is doing well, I think that is due to folks who are unaware of the controversy, or...

Like many films from the 80s, Krull isn't really a "good" movie . . . but it is a "fun" movie . . . but it's mostly nostalgia that puts it on the list for me.

That's my take.

Nope. We've had three large threads on this, can't expect you to read it all, but . . . thanks for assuming. Incorrectly. Folks (mostly) are upset that Goodman Games distanced themselves from Judges Guild a few years ago when the community learned the owners of JG are blatant and proud...

Game of Thrones / House of the Dragon depicts some pretty horrific stuff . . . but it's depicted as horrific. Deathstalker, and other 80s sword-and-sandal fantasy flicks, depicted some awful stuff as if it just the things heroes do. Kill, steal, rape, it's no big deal . . . . The tone and...

Whoah, hold on there . . . While many of us who were kids in the 80s recognize the problematic aspects of these films today . . . we still have a love for them, if a nostalgic one. Labeling potential fans of a Deathstalker RPG as bullies, bigots, and trolls is not cool. Would the trollish...

I'm not sure we even need a "Deathstalker" class . . . what special skills or abilities does the titular deathstalker have that isn't already modeled by the standard D&D fighter? And a setting book? I guess you could flesh out the list of place names dropped in the movies, but they didn't really...

I'm not under any illusions that this is the end for Goodman Games . . . but at this point, I'm certainly done with them as a customer and fan. Which is a bummer, they make good stuff.
