When I read AP, I see Adventure Path. That's a Paizo 'thing' and that pretty much stopped for D&D when Paizo moved to PF. Some Paizo AP have been released for 5e: Abomination Vaults and possibly the Kingmaker Bestiary... Everything official D&D 5e is called an 'adventure', or "...an adventure...

I don't know how long you've been a 40k fan, but back, back in the day they had more of a crossover with Warhammer Fantasy Battle (Specifically the Siege book for RT) where there were literally medieval worlds with maybe a few pieces of tech that were holy ancient relics. If you go that route...

Did the (extended) LotR trilogy? I'm not looking for 'improvements' in TV/movie adaptions, I'm looking for a different medium for the story to be told in. And with books to TV/Movie that change is generally in the audio/visual realm.

And that's all due to a bad Apple... :p I tried reading some of the BS novels, but it didn't mesh with me at the time. Maybe a TV series might change my view on that world...

This sounds a lot like change for change's sake to me. New blood does not equal good creative development, nor does it necessarily mean new ideas. Especially not in a corporate environment, something WotC/Hasbro clearly is. Nor is that necessarily mean that's something WotC/Hasbro wants or the...

As someone else pointed out, she didn't write anything on the D&D product 'Journeys through the Radiant Citadel', just on some monetized fan expansions (DMsGuild) for that product, which is imho a significant difference! And to be honest, there are very few D&D products with 'great' writing...

Mind you, I'm not Canadian, but I've heard Canadian publishers trying to sell stuff in the US and folks in Canada trying to get stuff from the US complaining for decades! So it's not just something from the last two 'clown' years, the situation has become worse, but it wasn't great before either...

In a lot of business-to-business we increase prices normally yearly relative to the the Consumer Price Index (cpi) for whatever niche we're working in. Similarly, there are salary increases, etc. Sometimes there are no such increases, but those are generally due to market competition, but...

Conan and Mad Max smash-up... ;)

As it's a boardgame, you'll get better feedback on bgg: League of Dungeoneers It has a subforum with quite a few threads.

Don't forget that there are folks with tens of millions in just MtG assets, besides their other assets. There have been other 'shareholders' that were fans first and business people second that made a $#!& storm a while ago, they failed, these folks might fail as well, but they might win...

I suspect that they are not saying that they acting 'dumb', but that they are acting maliciously to line their own pockets, and that's a lot easier to prove with bonuses and stock sales (as those are tracked). And you don't have to be a rocket scientist or a diviner to know that certain actions...

It depends, so I gave it a 3. We're currently playing in Undermountain, and certain rooms are relatively safe, but there's still a change for wandering monsters (for which I throw), it also depends on how much they cleared out. Sometimes they do backtrack all the way to the Yawning Portal Inn...

While certain folks might complain about the secondary market because they are heavily 'invested' in there, I can see the perspective from pure Hasbro investors. But what I read in the short version, it doesn't sound like pure investors, more like folks heavily invested folks in MtG that have...

I'm more wondering how well it will do compared to something like Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, it has those same nostalgia awkward vibes...

This is not how I remember the cartoons of my youth, but it looks like fun! Sidenote: The first Masters of the Universe (1987) movie wasn't much like the cartoon either...

I played maybe a month of WoW specifically back in 2005, to move to EVE Online. And I've played a lot of other (fantasy) MMOs before and after. And the reason I didn't stick with WoW didn't really have to do with the game system, it had to do with many shards vs single shard and player influence...

Positive: Moving away from THAC0 during the transition from 2E to 3E. Moving away from % based class skills to a more mature skill system. And while 3E was more customizable, the current 5e system I find simpler and possibly more elegant. Simplification/streamlining of core systems in 5E...

Years ago someone leaked that internal Games Workshop numbers showed that the average GW games player lasts 3 years. There was a time when GW made a TON of products besides WFB and 40k, then they didn't because they thought they were cannibalizing their own sales (they were to a certain point)...

That's because @payn is a peculiar person, but that has mostly to do with their obsession with House Marik... ;) Different people can have different opinions, the problems start when some people start phrasing their opinions as facts... And opinions can change with age. My views are certainly...
