Here's my take from the video: Theme: style of play will vary so much by individual table that one immutable rule set will not suit every table. Online rule discussions may be fundamentally flawed because of this. A person is arguing from the stance of their style of play and unique game table...

I said my bit. I voiced my displeasure with the fear of doing anything remotely unique for a setting and instead trying to homogenize it all. Fitting the square peg of Dragonlance into the "everything works let's just call it something different" model of WOTC made me feel like this, cause I...

Dungeon Crawl Classics heavily plays on intentionally taking on the "loser PC" and seeing what you can do with its 0-level "funnel" adventures (you control a group of 0-level dirt farmers with no skills and purely random 3d6 stats, if any survive pick one to become your level 1 character). After...

It's not a huge change, if you look at the origins. OD&D, 1970s. Kobold are "weaker cousins" to goblins, mystical little buggers that live in forests and attack you. AD&D, early 1980s. Kobolds are "dog-like" relations to goblins, now with divine hatred for gnomes. AD&D 2E, late 1980s. Kobolds...

I don't like it, but it's not totally wrong if D&D kobolds were morphed to their real-world origins. A kobold is originally a Germanic folklore sprite of the faerie realm, commonly found in woods or mines. Designers and writers gradually made them into dragonic beings through the AD&D years...

It'd be odd that Powerful Build characters would do much more damage throwing a dagger than stabbing you with it, or that improvised table legs become more deadly thrown (2-10 damage) than a long sword is wielded.

Our next campaign will take us to Krynn and a return to a world I haven't visited for a long time. I like to make worlds come alive by including details such as styles of speech, mannerisms, and so on. I don't do accents, but I sat down and found I couldn't find anything to say what makes the...
