    The DCC RPG fills the OSR stomach, but there's still a vacant spot to fill.

    You can go above level 10, but the written rules in the PH only support up to level 12. Your told XP requirements beyond that, but to see what the class abilities are you now have to buy the CKG, or make up your own like I did, since my game progressed beyond 12th level years ago. On the other...

    Rappan Athuk Reborn Kickstarter

    We don't just get the book for $100. Some people may want to read the various goals, that are already met, and will be. I fully expect this to exceed $100,000.00. Just wish the $100 did include shipping. Judging by Tsar, I fully expect $17 to be added for shipping.

    Monsters & Treasure of Aihrde

    This is my favorite over all book you guys have done to date. Monsters and cool magic items, what's not to love?

    You win some, you lose some

    As to how to get them to not be such sore losers? They have to grow up, and you can't do that for them. Besides, hopefully as the week goes on they will get it into perspective, and game on.

    You win some, you lose some

    If it was understood defeat and death was possible, and they died due to the dice being against them, or they made bad choices, or both, leave their PC's dead. Do what MILLIONS of their predecessors have done, roll up new characters and game on. Now if you screwed up, sounds like your coming...

    Give DAWNFORGE some love!

    Never ran it, but stole lots of ideas from it, especially stuff relating to the druid class.

    Castles & Crusades Recommended Products

    Only thing absolutely "required" is the PH since its pretty easy to use monsters from any D&D monster book you already have. Aside from that? Anything you read and think sounds cool, it likely is. I really like Monsters and Treasures of Aihrde. Of Gods and Monsters has some issues with some...

    How they decided carrying capacity x strength?

    But it doesn't have to be "arbitrary", there are thousands of studies in Sports medicine, and even military medicine, that has lots of substantiated data on what kind of stresses can be tolerated and for how long before the chances go up due to repeating those stresses over time. I guess we...

    How they decided carrying capacity x strength?

    Oh, they still do blow out knees even when not carrying extra weight. Bones also get broken. Just with the extra weight the frequency goes up almost exponentially. That is why, ideally, you use the rig that had your gear separated yet attached to you, and it hits the ground just before you do...

    Will Next be able to do HackMaster?

    I for one do believe that D&D 5E can be a good enough "Rosetta Stone" to pull over 90% of the community back together. At the very least, I applaud and support their efforts, but I do believe they can also do it. As for the thoughts on HM, the voices of factual truth have spoken, hopefully they...

    How they decided carrying capacity x strength?

    They may have taken it from the military. They worry about carrying capacity all the time. Plus their numbers for what a soldier can safely march with have been all over the place over the decades. Like right now, the carrying capacity of the "average" soldier is 65 pounds, and tops off at 85...

    The DB series is really good. I think it really hits its "stride" with DB 3.

    [ENnies] Is the ENnies a "d20-only" Award?

    Yeah, the Ennies have turned me on to plenty of non D20 products, such as Aces and Eights and Starblazers (FATE), and a number of accessory products. I think the Ennies also brought Cthulhu Tech and Eclipse Phase to my attention as well. So due to the Ennies I now own every book for Aces and...

    Awesome News for Savages (or anyone wanting to try Savage Worlds)

    I'm getting 4 more, and probably the PDF for good measure. Have to confirm whether or not I have bought the Deluxe PDF already.

    [DCC RPG] I have the pdf of the finished rules and I’m glad I do

    All the various dice and tables, for one. Like I said, when I have a print copy in hand I will give a real evaluation. Maybe in print it will all make much better sense to me. My brain really does not respond well to learning new things from PDF. Plus I gave up on 3E years ago, and 4E months...

    Classic Monsters The Manual Digital Release

    Plus the FB post today indicates they should have the print books in a week or so, so we should have ours inside of 3 weeks from now.

    Kenzer & Co. Giving Away A Copy Of The New HackMaster Player's Handbook

    Its not really a debate, its how I think about it, no one is required to agree or disagree. Kenzer has shown some signs of caring, because they have shocked me with some PDF decisions they have made in the last year or so. So I remain hopeful that one day they will get close enough to doing...

    I hate dealing with FB, I have no desire to add Twitter to my daily levels of frustration.

    Kenzer & Co. Giving Away A Copy Of The New HackMaster Player's Handbook

    Isn't the print book $60? If so not too bad a price, but I'd be far more likely to buy the PDF at $30. Then if I find out I like the full game after all I will still buy the HC. Keep the PDF price too high and I won't buy the HC because the combined investment is simply too high. Even at $30 I...
