A little bit of both, but I realize that my homebrew adventures tend to be somewhat straight forward. So I like to take pre-written adventures that have more unique scenarios in them and adapt those ideas to my games, but customize them to my liking. Sometimes other people just have good ideas...

Only two: Floor dice are always re-rolled. Cocked dice are always re-rolled. (Roller's judgement) I only have these rules because I always would get the question when playing with different groups. Everybody had their own opinion on floor dice (especially if the roll was good). This way I get...

Animation is done by titmouse, who did The Legend of Korra. Dunno if they were involved in ATAB though.

When it comes to Cubicle 7, I think your fears are somewhat founded. While The One Ring never had a VTT version, as soon as C7 lost/dumped that license (I still don't know what really happened) they pulled all of their products from their store and DriveThruRPG. You cannot buy Adventures in...

They are all back to playing at the same table now like they used to. It's great.

I always like to start with a small fight. D&D has a big focus on combat and most players are itching to try out their new abilities. Also, nothing forges a group of strangers into a adventuring party much like a fight. This first fight is usually pretty easy but exciting. At low levels an easy...

From Aaron Shanks on Paizo's Website. and from Mark Moreland

I think D&D Beyond is pretty neat and the real reason I don't use it is price. I already own all the books, etc. If Paizo offers a discount for customers who already own products, I'm much more likely to jump on board. I know many PF players use Pathbuilder, but I think that's free using the...

This actually sounds like a lot of fun. I might try this. Truth be told I'm starting to dislike flanking, but it depends on the circumstances. When playing Theater of the Mind I just got advantage for free as more often than not there wasn't anything stopping me from flanking or the DM...

The fact that the workers felt they needed to do this, makes all of the allegations against Paizo ring true and all of their promises to make things right suddenly seem hollow. Best of luck to all the unionizing employees. I hope this all turns out for the best.

Not a fan of this change. I had a situation in a game where a DM was adapting a 3rd Edition creature called a Mooncalf. The creature cast a pretty high level Call Lightning on us, and when we we attacked it, we reminded him to make a Concentration Check, to which he responded: "I don't think...

This is my experience, but it could have some merit for others, I dunno. When I pitch other kinds of RPGs people tend to ask "Why don't we just play D&D?" But Call of Cthulhu is so unique in it's tone and gameplay that my 5e purists accept it for what it is, a unique experience. But talking...

I feel you, I purchased Secrets of Magic like 4-5 days ago and coerced my group into a one-shot last weekend. I've never bought into the subscription model, so I can abstain from purchases for the time being. I already own the most of the core-books already, so I don't have to stop playing...

In case you didn't realize, this post by Kenada has a collection of all the tweets in a more readable format. I'm disappointed so far. The evidence does look pretty damning, but I'm also wary of Price. Her stuff certainly comes across as vengeful, but I believe that's it's probably true...

I bought this collection several years back and have occasionally sprinkling them into games over the past few years. The Complete Adventures of M.T. Black Volume 1. They are excellent adventures, spanning a range of levels at 1-2 sessions each. I'll be honest, a lot of them seem kind of simple...

It's because of this when I do give DM advice, I always tend to preface it not as "Here's what you should do" but rather "Here's what I would do." I feel like this tends to leave me advice as something that you can take or leave and not some commandment from an incredibly experienced GM that you...

One campaign has no real restrictions. Another campaign has certain restrictions based on our DM's homebrew. I don't recall them all but I know that Gnomes are extinct, so none of them. I'm getting ready to run a campaign using Midgard from Kobold Press. I'm planning on presenting a limited...

Carbon 2185 is a Cyberpunk RPG built on the 5e OGL. Maybe you'd like it? (I've never tried it.)

Not playing, but I keep longingly reading my WFRP 4e books and eyeballing my Symbaroum PDFs. Also Pulp Cthulhu, A Cold Fire Within. Once one of my current campaigns wraps. I'll try and find time for one of these.

A whole bunch of Flying Buffalo's products are on the Bundle of Holding right now if you still want to grab them. They have two bundles: Tunnels & Trolls 2 and Catalyst (Containing Grimtooth's Traps, Citybooks, etc.) These products can be re downloaded from Bundle of Holding at anytime, but...
