So, having whipped up a handful of test characters to get the hang of how character generation works now - both with points and die rolling, probably my biggest complaints with that character sheet are with the Feats. Because you're getting so many more feats so often now, it's really important...

Defacing public art. Public indecency with public art. Public urination in a fountain.

Yeah, the description here is reminding me a lot of how Hackmaster 4e handled armor - which was enough bookkeeping to turn a lot of prospective players off of the game when I was trying to find a group.

Yes - I am aware that Spaced Invaders was a movie. I am also aware that works of fiction make references of works of fiction all the time - even when the work of fiction being referenced is anachronistic to the universe of the work making a reference. And by saying "I'll allow that" I thought...

Considering Spaced Invaders (which was 1990, but still applicable) had some similar high-quality Cosplay level halloween costumes (the lead kid's Alien/Xenomorph costume) and that movie was one I watched way too much as a kid, I'll allow it.

I backed this on Kickstarter at the "Get a Blu-Ray" level, and I'm glad I did, because this is an excellent documentary and a great companion to the Art and Arcana book. I definitely recommend people check it out - and I'm also glad it's out on VOD so I can point people towards that instead of...

I'm a little disappointed by the fact that there isn't an option to get only the book in print + all the PDFs, because Arcana of the Ancients is the only one I want in print, but I am interested in the other PDFs.

I'm backing at the $10 level mainly because I'm not interested in the perks higher levels, but I do want a copy of this when it comes out.

Wouldn't there be some rights issues related to Greyhawk that would prevent it from being opened up in the DMG for fan-made content? I know there are some bits of Greyhawk that are still held by the Gygax estate, so it sounds like if those bits were to be used in fan materials it could cause...

Yeah - I just wasn't sure if they were Geek & Sundry related or if they were related to the Saving Throw Twitch & YouTube channels.

Didn't they do a few other tabletop RPG streams? There's one for Vampire, there's the Modiphius Star Trek one (which I need to get caught up on as well), there's the Deborah Ann Woll D&D show coming up, and there was/is a wrestling RPG one too, I think?

Have they posted the URL for Critical Role's independent podcast RSS feed yet?

I'm noticing that a lot of those deities also overlap with Planeswalkers (which feels legit - considering what the player is capable of doing in the actual card game), so that's something else to keep in mind.

Sure! I'd love to see it.

I was looking at the Dungeon Masters Log for AD&D 1e, and while the second page of that log (monster notes, marching order, light sources, treasure information, general session notes) is still incredibly useful, no matter which edition of D&D you're using, the 1st page of the log is...

I think it probably works best to take concepts from games in the same genre (like taking dungeons from fantasy RPGs) - with some exceptions, like retooling a Hitman level for an adventure where the party has to make their way through a populated area to kill someone without getting caught. Hell...

I have the booklets from the original Greyhawk setting set - but not the map :( - so I wouldn't mind a new version of the setting. Also, Gary on occasion would progress the current events of the setting, I'm reading series of articles from Gary in old Dragon magazines where he's basically...

Well, Maher's argument is taking that statement and adding - "...and because of that they are inferior to adults of my generation and thus by extension me - and are they, their life experiences, their fears and nightmares, hopes and dreams, are worthy of mockery and dismissal." It's the same...

We use a couple of big plastic folding tables from Costco side-by-side which work nicely.

I've seen multi-classed characters once in the handful of the 5e campaigns I've been in - and it was for role-play reasons. I was in an X-Crawl campaign, and the party had an Metal band theme. The player who was playing the lead singer bowed out of the group, so my character (who was a rogue and...
