    Jane Austen/Regency flavor to throw into an adventure?

    Int 8? Not like, 1 or 2, beast numbers? Otherwise awesome. Might replace my Circus' pack of Dire Squirrels.

    My first dip into this thread, and I will def need to get better acquainted. Dogs in the Vineyard is one of my all time favorites, and I am very interest in your re-imagining.

    Kickstarter Final 72hrs: Lineages of the Long White Cloud, New Zealand wildlife in 5e

    I know this is a small project, but why so little attention? Thanks for posting this. I'd have missed it otherwise. I'm in, for what it's worth. Not much, since my bank will almost certainly decide to block the payment, as it likes to do to all foreign countries. :p

    Kickstarter Spherechild - multidimensional P&P roleplaying game

    Late to the thread.... One of my all time favorite games is Everway, another game of many worlds and those who travel among them. I'm in, regardless, but are you aware of Everway, and how would this compare and contrast, setting-wise? I'm going digital. Will you have a US fulfillment arm to...

    D&D General Jaquaying the dungeon - a term to avoid

    If Janelle Jaquays doesn't want me to use the term, then I won't. No-brainer.

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    First, HOLY Crud! This guy... I keep thinking he can't sink lower. But then he finds lower! Second, I read "my 80 y/o mother" and went "Wow, his mother is OLD!" Then realized my mother is 80. When did we get old?

    Grade the Megaversal/Palladium System

    Go back in time and hold this poll in the early 90s. Past me will give this system top marks. TMNT was my first (caveat, I am old, and my memories for four decades ago are unreliable) Palladuim. I loved the comic, and my High School friend said he didn't want it anymore. I bought it, made about...

    How to deal with a Player that only wants to play evil characters

    I like this. It's not just "Ha! You were bad, now suffer!" It's an opportunity. Need buy-in from the player and probably other players, but could be fun. I recall my first game of Top Secret. We were kids, and we played Murder Hobos. We did not at all get the premise of a spy thing, and we...

    Palladium Announces New TMNT Kickstarter

    Wise words for more than just marketing one's game.

    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    "...deviated from Lanasa's demeanor and came clean." Ouch.

    Palladium Announces New TMNT Kickstarter

    Sadly Palladium is the reason I won't even consider this project.

    Why is/was Shadowrun more popular than Cyberpunk?

    I think (with nothing but my own opinion to back it up), it's the combination of the cyberpunk attitude and aesthetic combined with the... novelty for want of a better word... of magic and a more fantastic setting. That was certainly it for me back in the 80s when I first discovered these...

    Quick & Memorable NPCs in 1 page

    IDK if this should be a reply or its own thing. But I once wrote down some of my thoughts on NPCs on another site.

    D&D 5E (2014) PHB on Amazon $26 and in the three for two book sale.

    Dang. Missed it. I would've jumped for that price.

    D&D 5E (2014) Player consent required -spoilers for new adv book

    Not the same situation, of course... but didn't we have a whole thing a while ago because because WotC sent thugs to someone's house to enforce their requirements? :p

    D&D 5E (2014) Player consent required -spoilers for new adv book

    One thing people sometimes forget... player consent is always required. I don't think the quoted piece was WotC telling you. It was them reminding you. It's just pointing out that something has a high probability of touching on a nerve. I played in a game once where another player outright quit...

    D&D General Drow as Dark Fae?

    My game is probably pretty close to the old party line. An age ago, some clans of elves sided with the wrong side in a huge war among the gods. These clans, whether one fought or no, were punished by the god of elves. They became drow and those were weren't evil to begin with fell into the...
