    What's the WORST Star Wars movie?

    I was going to add Solo but changed my mind... and then forgot to edit the # of films. D'oh!

    What's the WORST Star Wars movie?

    I never saw The Rise of Skywalker. After the first two sequels I just couldn't bring myself to watch it. If I ever ran a Star Wars game, there would be only 4 Star Wars movies that would serve as canon: 1] Rogue One 2] Star Wars 3] The Empire Strikes Back 4] Return of the Jedi

    AD&D 2E On AD&D 2E

    2nd edition is, definitely, my sentimental favorite... so much so that, when I wrote my AD&D3 houserules (basically I mash-up of Castles & Crusades and AD&D), I tried to make them as 2nd edition compatible as possible. It was the most versatile set of rules and, during its run, TSR put out a...

    WotC Walks Back Some OGL Changes, But Not All

    Too little too late. As Sancrosanct just wrote, "The trust has already been broken." Just the fact that they considered this shows that WotC and the OGL can't be relied upon.

    Monte Cook Games’ Next Kickstarter Is Ptolus (for 5E and Cypher)

    I'd love to buy this for 5e, as I have and love the 3e version, but it's a bit pricey for the option that I'd like. I wish there were a cheaper option for just the main book and 5 Player's Guide in print (with no PDFs). Pledge $220 or more HERO OUTFIT YOUR GAME GROUP! You get Ptolus in print...

    OSR Which retroclone/OSR game is closest to AD&D 2E?

    Hi, I've made a D20 retroclone with 2E in mind. It's available on my website: Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Resources & Links Page There's a Player's Handbook, DMG, and Monstrous Manual. It plays much more like 3E or 5E but scales back class abilities to make them more like their AD&D...

    AD&D 3?? Perhaps some can help me find this

    Hi Daern, I wanted Morale to be handled like other ability checks/saving throws for consistency's sake. It worked well enough BUT use whatever system you like. I'm sure that the old system (which I've totally forgotten) can easily be ported into the rules.

    AD&D 3?? Perhaps some can help me find this

    BTW, thanks for the head up on the cover artist. I forgot to change the artist name when I changed the cover art. I originally used a Jeff Easley piece BUT changed it to the old Fiend Folio cover.

    AD&D 3?? Perhaps some can help me find this

    I based this set of rules off of 2nd edition AD&D (monster statblocks, XP awards, treasure tables, and encounter tables). The game uses the d20 system, with bits stolen from C&C, 3rd edition, and 5th edition. The goal was to make a d20 game that somehow felt like classic (A)D&D and that could...

    AD&D 3?? Perhaps some can help me find this

    Hey, Sorry for the 10 year thread necromancy, but I've completed (and streamlined) the Player's Handbook, Dungeon Master's Guide, and Monstrous Manual for AD&D3. They are all available at: Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Resources & Links Page

    If you were able to design your own version of D&D, how would you do it?

    I'd try to take the best bits of each edition to make an edition of D&D that is highly compatible with AD&D (the edition with my favorite adventures and campaign supplements) but without the baggage of AD&D (various subsystems for task resolution, THACO, level limits for demihumans, etc.). In...

    The New Savage Worlds Is Storming Kickstarter

    I hope that the final cover is a bit more dynamic. The art isn't bad so much as bland.
