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

    Maybe, unless some reports that the popularity of D&D and the number of active 5e players has declined since the pandemic ended are true. If I recall correctly, the end of the pandemic lines up with the move to digital (I.e. about two years ago).

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

    yes Yeah, I just saw on Google AI that the 3e number appears to combine 3.0 and 3.5. However it also noted that 3.0 sold 1 million PHB, DMG, and Monster Manuals which I take to mean each since AI stated at the beginning that sales estimates were based on PHB sales (edit: This was wrong. I...

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

    I thought he did or it had come from Mearls since he mentioned Mearls twice. However, he just said estimates without a source. When I did a search to find the video, Google Search AI came back with similar numbers except for 3e and 4e. The AI said 3e combined 3 and 3.5 while for 4e it just...

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

    I dont' know if that is true. If I recall correctly, Mearls said in the past that 4e initial sales were better than 3e, but Professor DM, recently, said that overall sales of 4e at its peak were less than 3e. I think he said he was quoting Mearls. who also said that 3e were still doing well and...

    How Do You Like Your Steak?

    I am a heathen. The only steaks that I like are tri-tip, flank steak), marinated, and grilled marineated skirt steak. Never been a fan of the various other steaks (e.g. filet mignon, ribeye, porterhouse, chuck steak, etc.) that I have tried. It worked well, because one of my friends liked steak...

    D&D 5E (2014) Cthulhu Mythos by Petersen Games. Why is it no longer on drivethrurpg?

    thanks all for the responses. Google AI had answered that it had been temporarily removed from DTRPG to address an issue or two and was back up on the site, Since it was not up, I was hoping that it would, eventually, return. Looks like that will not be case.

    D&D 5E (2014) Cthulhu Mythos by Petersen Games. Why is it no longer on drivethrurpg?

    Has Cthulhu Mythos by Petersen Games been permanently removed from Drivethrurpg? I could not find it on DTRPG so I did a Google search . The Google search resulted in a dtrpg page for comments or reviews. I clicked the link and clicked on the DTRPG page Cthulhu Mythos cover thumbnail that was...

    ToV Some questions regarding the Game Master's Guide

    I don't know if it is necessarily making a new core class. It could be an additional Cleric's Manifestation of Faith at 1st level.

    ToV Some questions regarding the Game Master's Guide

    I forgot two questions in my previous post. 1. Does the Game Master Guide have an option for skill points? 2. Does it have an option for reducing a cleric's hit die to d6 and removing armor proficiencies in exchange for other abilities? The D&D 3.5 Unearthed Arcana had the Cloistered...

    Your top 5 sci-fi movies (and why)

    Yeah, I came very close to putting Strange Days in place of either The Matrix or The Terminator or cheating and putting it as a tie with one of them.

    Your top 5 sci-fi movies (and why)

    1. Star Wars: A New Hope (1977) : Yes, technically, I do think that The Empire Strikes Back is a better movie, but I find A New Hope more fun and will watch it for more often. Plus, I can't ignore the cultural impact. 2. The Thing (1982) : I love the story and the practical effects. Plus, it...

    ToV Some questions regarding the Game Master's Guide

    Prabe, First let me thank you for the response Cool. ok, I will try to look at other sources on Drivethrurpg and the Kobold Press website to see what is available. What I had in mind for variants: Lineages: a variant for using 2014 D&D racial ability modifiers (or, maybe, capping strength...

    ToV Some questions regarding the Game Master's Guide

    While I liked the split of Lineages and heritages and several of the heritages, there were some mechanical changes and flavor issues in the Player's Guide that did not make me want to switch to Tov (as was the same with D&D 2024). The Game Master's Guide, in contrast, looks like it could have...

    What rpg system would you use for a 60+ session fantasy campaign?

    I ran a long term campaign with RM2 an a few bits from RMSS (a few spell lists and a some tables from the Martial Arts Companion). Was a lot of fun with that group, but most players in my experience have had difficulty with it.

    What rpg system would you use for a 60+ session fantasy campaign?

    Most likely, I would use Savage Worlds: 50 Fathoms (nautical/Pirate fantasy), Beasts & Barbarians (Sword & Sorcery), Hellfrost (High Fantasy), Sundered Skies (post cataclysmic), Savage Pathfinder (for D&D/Pathfinder fantasy), or something home-brewed However, depending on the group, I might...

    AD&D 1E Edition Experience: Did/Do you Play 1E AD&D? How Was/Is It?

    I played it for about eight years. I enjoyed the system up until the point that I was introduced to other fantasy RPG systems. I do, however, still have praise for many of the 1e modules such as L1: The Secret of Bone Hill, T1: The Temple of Elemental Evil, Against the Giants (G1-G3),

    Post Apocalypse Settings

    While I mentioned Apocalypse in an earlier post, for a pre-built setting with a Gamma World vibe, I would go with Darwin's World Nuclear Edition. It provides locations, factions, and plenty of adventure hooks. Drop a lot of the Twisted Earth stuff and you could probably due a successful Mad...

    Post Apocalypse Settings

    Here you go. I believe it uses the Deluxe Explorer Edition since it was last updated in 2016, but it should be fairly easy to adapt it to SWADE https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/201070/apocalypse-campaign-guide
