It's called a Tuesday at WotC... ;)

Apparently D&D is big enough to change everyone's perception... At least it changed your perception... But when did that change? In LotR the Orcs/Goblins (same thing there?) were essentially Golems, made from rock, heat and slime. D&D stole a lot from LotR, but not that creation method and also...

I love me some illustrations, but why is the iconic Red Box Red Dragon by Larry Elmore missing here?

And at what level do we talk sentience? Int of what? A Dolphin, Gnoll (Warrior) and Ogre all have the same Intelligence in 5e... But there are also creatures in MM25 that have beyond human intelligence, apparently it's alright to kill those... I think that people need to let go of...

The first thing that sprung out at me with the new MM is that the mechanic text under the statblock is condensed and simplified with losing very little. Multiple types of physical attacks flattened down to one type of attack. Abilities that took 5 lines of text are now only two, by just using...

Possibly. His reputation got damaged. He got fired in the regular Christmas roundup. He had a couple of different projects that didn't go anywhere (as far as I could tell). He now works at Chaosium. He could of course have a TON of side gigs. But I like Vanilla! ;) Because doing that would...

@Jfdlsjfd Filler art: Source: https://xkcd.com/157/ ;)

That's exactly why we post in this thread! ;) And you mean illustrator, right... Artists make art, illustrators illustrate, the later work for their money.

Even if you cover up the cleavage, she has exposed ear tips! The scandal! ;) If I was to walk in a big city in the Netherlands during summer, seeing people with cleavage like that isn't exactly rare...

Come on! Dragons are the ultimate loot pinata! And they taste great! ;)

I only remember the announcement that they joined the Rebellion, I apparently missed the one where they said they were leaving (in 2010), the Rebellion Wikipedia lists that they acquired Mongoose and Crucible 7, but not that they left (although not under the current active subsidiaries). Thanks...

Nice move for Mongoose! But Mongoose has been part of the Rebellion family (Cubicle 7 is in that same family) for around 17 years now, they're turning into an IP company, buying up IPs left and right. MGP has been doing well with the Traveller IP, looks like they are doing well these days as...

GW manufactures most of the minis in the UK, occasionally some of the very big plastic kits (terrain) are made in China. Hasbro: Depends on which toys. The Magic cards were manufactured in Belgium, then they moved I think to Cardamundi in Texas. I also read that WotC is actually printing books...

Games Workshop (an expensive luxury goods miniatures company) would like to counter that their revenue only went up during economically difficult periods, during the Great Recession (2008) and the pandemic (2020) their revenue only went up. The same was true for Hasbro during those periods...

Oh, it could happen... But realize that many people outside of the US are already not happy with the... 'situation', having US companies increase the prices drastically so they can compensate their domestic issues isn't going to fly for many non-US people. That could totally destroy their...

That's too low, it needs to be 54%... ;) Probably only in the US and Canada (due to their convoluted supply chain situation for games)... Why would prices rise in the rest of the world? As was indicated by SJ Games, no way are the American pnp RPG companies able to transition anytime soon to US...

It's not just local capacity in the US, it's also ability and quality that are affected. When companies start printing in the US instead of China, expect to see some cases of (far) lower quality. About 10-15 years ago some people/companies wanted to start making hig quality (HIPS) plastic...

Do you produce anything worthwhile I would spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on? I haven't spend that much on WotC products 'recently', I've spent most of it on licensed products, like Wizkids miniatures, Lego lego, computer games and Foundry modules. I own physically the three core books...

Should we keep a tally of how many dumb mistakes you make per day? Get a ton of people together, they tend to make more dumb mistakes, not less... You only notice the ones making it out of the office and some news starved reporter picks it up...

How does this happen accidentally? Human error, probably by not understanding what Nexusmods is, just like Morrus... ;) No slight to Morrus! Nexusmods isn't the maker of the mod. Nexusmods is the hoster of the mod, it's a platform for mod makers. A nexus for mods... (Creator of the mod is Xun.)...
