If you actually read what I inked on reddit, it clearly states that Pundit is not being accused of being a nazi. What he is accused of is calling neo-nazis "heroes," even after finding out they were neo-nazis. This is something he undeniably did. And, yes, I STRONGLY encourage everyone to go...

Concerning the RPGPundit, there was a recent reddit thread in which a poster elucidated, with receipts, why Pundit is not credible or worthy of support. It's as good as any I've seen. Mod Edit:

Not even close lmao That analogy is so tortured it violates the Geneva Convention

Worth noting that the IP wasn't really "removed" so much as "renamed." I've run several WFRP adventures with Zweihander, and haven't really run across any "missing " pieces yet. The gods in Zweihander map almost 1:1 to the gods in WFRP. As do the races, and a lot of monsters and demons, etc. You...

Because Zweihander is one book and WFRP 2E is several, to get the same amount of content. Plus, Zweihander isn't a 1:1 restatement, it has some rules tweaks, modernized design elements and streamlining that make it far more fun to run and play, IMO. YMMV. Serious question: do you feel this way...

Bit of both, IMO. That's why I've made it a practice to ignore any allegations without receipts where Mr. Fox is concerned. Some folks have legitimate concerns about him, but he also has a HUGE contingent of regressive types who hate his liberal politics. Criticism of him is often disguised as...

As ate as last fall, Fox was posting an image of Zweihander influences that included WFRP 2e. If he's trying to obscure the link between the two games, he's doing an awful job.

I'm pretty jazzed about it myself.

When it comes to transparency, I've never heard Daniel Fox deny WFRP's influence on Zweihander. Never. As recently as last fall, he posted a list of Influences on his Facebook page, which plainly listed WFRP, as well as a host of others. The idea that Zweihander has less justification for...

I'm a huge fan of Zweihander, and a defender of Fox. That having been said, I can see why people dislike or even hate the guy. However, the whole Trove thing is an argument I don't understand at all. I don't get feeling so positively entitled to stolen property. It's weird af. I'm not even...

I once read somewhere, and man do I wish I could remember who wrote it because it's great and they deserve credit, that every game since D&D has tried to distinguish itself either by being like D&D or by not being like D&D.

Also, there are plenty of retro-clones of "non-OGL" systems. James Bond 007, Marvel Super Heroes, Ghostbusters.

Day one pledge for me. I'm currently running a Zweihander campaign for some veteran players, including some old GW employees, one of whom was the first person in the US to get a copy of WFRP (which he still has). I've heard the "knockoff" arguments, and I don't buy them. There's a lot more...

Certainly doesn't sound "organic."

Not exactly, but it's related. It seems Gillespie has added his voice to the chorus of grognards who seem to think that old white guys are the real victims of persecution (for the record, I'm an old white guy). His review of the D&D movie was bizarrely built around the idea that it was designed...

It's more the "white grievance" stuff than the so-called "anti-Marxist" stuff for me. So, yeah, I'll be giving this one a hard pass. I wouldn't buy any product by Gillespie, even if there wasn't already so much great OSR product out there by people far more worthy of support. Not to mention, I'm...

Classic "picture book" WWI aerial combat game Ace of Aces is getting a new edition, which is now crowdfunding on Kickstarter. I am not in any way affiliated with the game, or any company producing or promoting it. I'm just a fan since the 1980s, and am thrilled that the game is seeing a new...

I typically use DM, GM, Referee, Judge, or whatever the game I'm currently running calls it. My players tend to use Game Master, that is, when they're not just using my name. Which they usually are. One player in particular only uses "Game Master" kind of a sarcastic way when he feels he's about...

THAC0 - pronounced tha-KEER-a, like "Shakira" Crits Don't Lie

Jennell Jaquays' Illustrations for Blue Frog Tavern, a Tunnels & Trolls solo adventure, are some of my favorite in any module, ever.
