    Talking through the Ignore Feature

    The people I have ignored... I am not worried about them coming up with some brilliant observation that would make up for the dreck that they have shown. I see enough of it in my daily life, tyvm.

    D&D General Gary Gygax a racist?

    Oh brother.

    What do other games use in place of 'race'?

    Maybe instead of tying it to class, tie it to background? For instance, one wizard player might pick something more to type like a Sage or a Noble, that offers a chance at a good education for a +2 bonus to INT. Another player might play against type and pick Urchin, who gets a bonus to DEX...

    What do other games use in place of 'race'?

    Some editions of Shadowrun give scientific nomenclature to the various metatypes: Elves are Homo Sapiens Nobilis, Orks are Homo Sapiens Robustus, Humans are (re?)classified as Homo Sapiens Sapiens. Wouldn't this make the various metatypes different species of Homo?

    D&D General WotC’s Official Announcement About Diversity, Races, and D&D

    It's a strawman because you are presenting a version of the opposing argument that is easy for you to knock down. "There is no pleasing this particular crowd." Not to mention that this isn't a good faith presentation of their position. It's a slippery slope because you are assuming that...

    D&D General WotC’s Official Announcement About Diversity, Races, and D&D

    And the strawman fell down the slippery slope.

    Here's the Cover of Warhammer: Age of Sigmar: Soulbound: Shadows in the Mist

    I am actually referring to the lady on the far right with the staff. The ornament on top of her helmet is just astoundingly huge.

    Vampire the Masquerade - 5th edition or V20

    I think V5 has made some pretty necessary changes to the lore and how the world of Vampire works, and I feel like it brings it a bit closer to what Vampire has always supposed to have been about. The books spent so much time talking the talk of personal horror, but when they walked the walk with...

    D&D General Alignment in D&D

    ...Outlawed for... robbing the rich and giving to the poor, perhaps? I wouldn't really consider the people of Nottingham to be a political ally per se. They don't have any real say in how they are governed, and are more or less the property of the landowners. Their ability to influence...

    D&D General Alignment in D&D

    He is however, working outside the system. He isn't gathering political allies, he isn't using the church, he isn't using his status as a noble heir... He is attacking traveling nobles to take their wealth and distributes it to the poor. This isn't going to end feudalism, nor is that his goal...

    D&D General Alignment in D&D

    The Punisher is kind of a moving target. He can be Good, Neutral or Evil depending on who is writing him.

    D&D General Alignment in D&D

    The system I was referring to was Feudalism, for the record, but whatever works.

    D&D General Alignment in D&D

    I have always held Robin Hood as the quintessential CG character. While both LG and CG characters can challenge unjust laws, LG tend to prefer to do it within the system. For example, they might leverage pressure using the church, or through diplomacy. When those avenues have been exhausted...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is 5e Darkvision A Good Design?

    I find it odd that Drow, as written would still use light on a day-to-day basis. They see in darkness as dim light, which is to say, with disadvantage... which seems odd for the subterranean race that tends to use darkness to their advantage. They even take daylight penalties, which seems like...
