    WotC WotC Removes Digital Content Team Credits From D&D Beyond

    As we all know that for many readers/gamers, any names in the Credits or next to the Byline is invisible and the only people who usually care about these things are industry professionals or super fans - who usually become the next generation of creatives. (And I'll raise my hand as being guilty...

    ENNIE Award Dream Date Guide 2024

    Seeing as writers/designer names and their gamer cred is invisible to most readers/gamers, you are doing the Lord's work.

    RPG Evolution: Teaching D&D to Scouts … Again

    I was fortunate enough to have a DM who provided my Level 5 goblin a severely wounded, sickly dragon to fight and then claim the title of Dragonslayer. My whole table kept laughing about it for the rest of the night.

    RPG Evolution: Teaching D&D to Scouts … Again

    My first exposure to D&D was a week long summer camp. We used chits instead of dice.

    Space: 1999 Coming From Modiphius

    I remember buying a few tanks from them as they were right scale for WW II wargaming only a few years ago.

    RPG Evolution: Teaching D&D to Scouts … Again

    I was a bit surprised you had starting players at level 8. Before my friend, Bryan Dalrymple - FLGS store owner and 20 year secretary for GAMA- passed away, we were running a "Story Time" at the local library. We used the system agnostic D&D "A Young Adventurer's Guide" series to guide them...

    Morrus' Unofficial Tabletop RPG Talk Podcast #307

    I always thought C&C should get more love, especially from the OSR crowd as it was one of the original retroclones. Though I suspect it is in part that C&C never went OGL or community content.

    Space: 1999 Coming From Modiphius

    I could be wrong but I think Farscape only got one supplement at most. And at the time, it was the only decent episode guide for the series. I also recall this being the IP that broke AEG from doing more IP ttrpgs as the approval process took a long time. I've heard from old timers that...

    Space: 1999 Coming From Modiphius

    That music video was a bit odd.

    D&D 5E (2024) 3,000 Player's Handbooks Available At Gen Con

    That makes even more sense as Gamehole Con is in October and that's where WotC puts in just as much effort for a much smaller con.

    Space: 1999 Coming From Modiphius

    There's a kickstarter for a legally distinct Miami Vice type game and while I can't name any, I remember seeing quite a few indies that aim for that neon light, sockless vibe. https://www.enworld.org/threads/miami-86-rpg-upcoming-ttrpg-inspired-by-miami-vice-scarface-and-vice-city.705493/

    Space: 1999 Coming From Modiphius

    I barely remember the show (the Dragon's Domain episode scared the crap out of little me), but thought the ships were cool and realistic for the time period (in my boyhood judgement.) I didn't even know the same production house also did Thunderbirds until today.

    D&D 5E (2024) 3,000 Player's Handbooks Available At Gen Con

    I'm not a fan of lines and this one will be out the door so I'll be patient and get when I can get it. To all those get one to use and enjoy, I send you much gamer love. For those scalping it AND are rude in line? Bad form! Bad form!

    Revelations of the Dark Mother Coming for Vampire: The Masquerade 5e

    I remember when this first came out and it blew our minds to have a in-game prop of an actual book. Of course my favorite of this kind is now Dracula Redacted.

    WotC New WotC President Is World of Warcraft's John Hight

    TBF, that's always been the golden goose for that crowd. Even Peter Adkison quit once he found out Hasbro foolishly sold off the video gaming rights without consulting him first and he was the one who bought TSR to save D&D. I am not saying that makes me feel great for how he might treat the...

    Damn It, Owen! Cartoons Help Owen K.C. Stephens Fight Cancer

    If you haven't seen his story about running a d20 Star Wars demo at Planet Hollywood, you need to check it out now. And afterwards, you should consider give something for his cause.

    Dragonbane Offers A Box Full Of Classic Fantasy

    This is on par with a dragon or demon with less hit points because its armor is high and then gets even higher. And what's a DB monster without a fear/condition attack. :LOL: Just my two cents, if it wasn't for the loot, this could also be a environmental hazard/trap. Check out how in the core...

    Taking A Peek At The Stormlight RPG!

    I'd say more like anime/Amber fantasy. The movers and shakers have some literal superpowers and the peeling back layers of how the world works and how the heroes bend that to their advantage reminds me of Amber. It's a bit sci-fi as well. Dice pools are not a deal breaker for me. I did the...

    Dragonbane Offers A Box Full Of Classic Fantasy

    Pretty much, you could also use the Hot Springs Island as well, which has no stats to convert. Just decide which family of stats (demons, elementals, orcs, ogres, etc) go with which factions and go. https://shop.swordfishislands.com/the-dark-of-hot-springs-island/

    D&D 5E (2014) Quests from the Infinite Staircase TOC and Zargon.

    Interesting they are trying to keep the page count mostly equal with the original adventures. Though I feel Expedition is more of an abridged version.
