Just a note that some people (like me) don't know what "Kingdoms & Warfare" is, and the article refers to it with no explanation. I'm guessing it's another book by Colville. Is it out now, too? Is it coming later in 2019?

In my experience, Relentless Endurance creates a fun play experience, while villains that can kill a PC with a single spell do not. So, I'm all for Relentless Endurance.

I'm glad to hear that D&D is doing so well. I just have one quibble with the article. The mention of the Platinum Edition of Dragon Heist seems out of place, since we have no data on how well it has sold. The fact that one company is taking a risk and offering an expensive item is not proof...

Yes. This. 100%. This is a review of the game components, not the game. This is life in the Kickstarter era, people buying beautiful games that they never play. Surely someone here at EN World has played the game. Any thoughts or comments on what it is like?

Another Starfinder creature book is welcome, but it's irritating how thin these books are. You could combine Alien Archive 1 and 2 and I think you would still have less content than the first Pathfinder Bestiary. I'd rather have half as many Starfinder books and have them each be twice as big as...

Yes, the article is incorrect. The Return of the Runelords adventure path was *announced* a long time ago, probably at Gen Con 2017. It was *released* this week. Got my copy in the mail yesterday.

There was also a nice 3.5 hardcover called Expedition to Castle Ravenloft.

Such a canonic place does exist! The early printings of B1 gives some suggested locations in the World of Greyhawk setting. Interestingly enough, later printings omit it. The Goodman Games volume Into the Unknown reprints the second printing (monochrome cover) and sixth printing (brown cover)...

When is it coming out?

That's a strange picture. Check out the d10s. They're both numbered "00, 10, 20, 30..." whereas the actual set will presumably have one that's numbered "0, 1, 2, 3..." And is one of the d20s actually significantly larger than the other, or is that some weird perspective trick? I'm confused.

And this is a bit of a nitpick, but if the title of the article is "let's look at some stat blocks," shouldn't the article include more than one stat block? :-)

I'm not crazy about this use of the word "Irreligious" which means "indifferent or hostile to religion." A creature that is indifferent to religion should not be affected by a holy symbol. Being hostile to religion doesn't give someone else's religion power over you (other than perhaps to annoy...

I love this theory! But maybe not an update of all the I modules (since we already have Ravenloft and Tomb of Annihilation has some very I1-ish stuff in it). But maybe a big adventure that re-visits lots of other places from the I series. Okay, not very likely. But the Xanathar bit seems so...

Well, we know the launch stream is going to be called the "Stream of Many Eyes," which (best guess) means that a beholder or beholders will be involved. The Gangs of New York reference makes me wonder if Xanathar will be important to the plot in some way.

As a GM, I have to say I am not a fan of this "spend an action to activate your shield" thing. I don't want each character's armor class to be constantly fluctuating during combat. Waaaaay too much to keep track of. I mean, a few buffs are fine; I'm used to Shield of Faith and Mage Armor. And...

Setting material is easy to port to different editions, and there's so much old setting material available on DM's Guild (and in the books already on my shelves) that I'd rather have something new, but I seem to be in the minority as far as that goes. At any rate, a setting wouldn't be eligible...

You are correct. Currently trending toward $2.7M. Which is still pretty good. ;)

"The Index Card RPG (or ICRPG) started as an experiment in using index card sized illustrations in place of square by square combats." I don't understand this sentence. How can an illustration take the place of a combat?

Unless there are special laws related to pirating books, it's probably just a misdemeanor. In most states in the U.S., the value of the thing being stolen has to be at least $500 for it to be a felony.
