    Yeah I hope this upcoming kickstarter is successful enough that MCDM is able to do another full player book and monster book kickstarter in a year or two.

    The Summoner class and the adventure The Fall of Blackbottom will be available for sale this Friday: https://shop.mcdmproductions.com/ I was watching Matt’s last livestream from a few days ago and he mentioned that Draw Steel is the bestselling MCDM product ever, and it’s still selling a lot of...

    Draw Steel: Crack the Sun backerkit signup live.

    I’ll be backing this. I’ve run several sessions of Delian Tomb and Draw Steel is absolutely wonderful. I hope MCDM sees a lot of success and we get a lot of expansion content and adventures from both MCDM and the third party community.

    What information was released/leaked about the sales?

    Pathfinder 2 e vs D&D 5e (high lvl play)

    Both Legendary Resistance in 5E and strong monsters having very high saving throws that they almost never fail in Pathfinder 2E to both be pretty unsatisfying if you're playing a caster. I'm hoping to get to the first solo monster in my Draw Steel game soon (we've had a few weeks off due to...

    2024 D&D Core Rulebooks Off to "Strongest-Ever" Start for D&D Books

    He’s totally right that Chris’s statement is such a nothing corporate speak message that it’s pretty much impossible to get any useful information from it since we have no idea how they’re measuring the start.

    I must say I’m looking forward to the Arixx fight when my group gets there in our game. I want to see how they handle a solo monster.

    I got my physical books from the kickstarter in the mail the other day. I’m running my next game on Monday, looking forward to it.

    Normally I use Foundry but I decided to give Codex a try. Codex does a good job of automating the system - like popping something up when a player or GM can use a reaction or showing how far a push can go.

    What gets me playing Draw Steel and not Pathfinder 2e?

    Our group calls that module The Abomination Closets.

    What gets me playing Draw Steel and not Pathfinder 2e?

    Yeah after playing PF2 for a few years it feels a bit too restrictive and over designed. I had my Draw Steel session 0 last week, I’ll be doing session 1 next week. Looking forward to seeing how it plays.

    Not 5e but I’ll be running Draw Steel for the group I play Pathfinder 2e with in a few weeks. We played 5e for a few years then PF2e and I’m getting burned out on traditional d20 stuff so they were cool with me running the Delian Tomb for them.

    Ben Riggs: 'The Golden Age of TTRPGs is Dead'

    I have a feeling that most people don’t immediately play new games as soon as they come out. Most people have existing games they need to wrap up or need decent VTT support before playing. I’ll be running a Draw Steel game in about 2 weeks for my group. We have people in 2 different states so...

    Ben Riggs: 'The Golden Age of TTRPGs is Dead'

    MCDM has pretty heavy support for Draw Steel in the pipeline. Multiple smaller adventures, a full length adventure, 2 classes, 6 ancestries, and a book of encounters/dungeons you can drop into a game have all been announced as being in the works. They seem to be all in on Draw Steel support.

    How far along is the Codex? Is the Delian Tomb fully integrated yet? I plan on running Delian Tomb soon but it will probably be in Foundry.

    Version .8 of the Foundry module is now available.

    Draw Steel News

    Oh yeah I know. I’ll be using the Foundry module though that’s currently in development since I have that all setup for our group and we play other games. I’m glad they are making one though it’s too bad it wasn’t closer to being ready at launch.

    Ben Riggs: 'The Golden Age of TTRPGs is Dead'

    I have my doubts that more people are playing TTRPGs/D&D now than during COVID lockdowns but it’s hard to say. That was such a unique moment in time and playing on a VTT with friends you couldn’t physically see was likely a big draw for people.

    Draw Steel News

    Yeah it reminds me of Pathfinder 2e…it’s a game I never want to play without a VTT. Too much to keep track of, I’ll let the VTT automate that for me. I am still looking forward to running the game when our group is ready and the foundry module is ready.

    Ben Riggs: 'The Golden Age of TTRPGs is Dead'

    I wonder if the issue is that there’s too little different in 2024? I stopped playing around the OGL crisis but from what I’ve seen 2024 seems almost like a 3.5 with a lot less content. If DMs and players already have their 2014 games going with their homebrew and third party supplements they...
