    Pathfinder 1E Rise of the Runelords

    One of the NPCs, Aldern Foxglove (sp?), is introduced in the first book as a minor character, but has a much larger role when the second book was released. In retrospect, I wish I had built up his relationship with the PCs prior to running the second book as it could have had a bigger emotional...

    MOVED to South Bay: Looking for RPG group in San Jose

    Have you tried Meetup.com? I found my current group through that site 11 years ago and we've been gaming together ever since. I've also seen groups play on a regular basis when taking the kids to the library, but this was in South San Francisco.

    Any news about Shadowrun Anarchy 2nd Ed?

    I really liked that the lead designer was there answer everyone's questions in that thread. I'm definitely going to pick it up. My friends and I enjoyed playing the first Anarchy rules (I heavily modified it to fit our needs) over the 5e rules and haven't played since 6e. I'm really looking...

    RPG Archive: Star*Drive for D&D and Traveller

    And it had my favorite cover art for all their modules and accessories.

    RPG Archive: Star*Drive for D&D and Traveller

    This was basically my group. A ton of us were in high school playing MtG, we started book 2 of Night Below for AD&D, and I had finally gotten my hands on The DarkStryder Campaign for Star Wars by the time Alternity came out.

    RPG Archive: Star*Drive for D&D and Traveller

    Oh good, I thought I was the only one who really struggled to enjoy this game. And I really really wanted to like this :cry:

    MOVED to South Bay: Looking for RPG group in San Jose

    Might be a long shot, but you might have luck finding a group at Gamescape in San Rafael?

    D&D 5E (2024) Heroes of the Borderlands

    I saw this posted on the official D&D YouTube page today. EDIT: I didn't realize this was posted here already. Feel free to delete. Return of the poster grid maps, kind of like the black box D&D of the 90s (one can hope)?

    Dungeons & Dragons Teases New Campaign Settings

    If they do an update to the Champions of Mystara: Heroes of the Princess Ark boxed set, which was basically airship articles reprinted from Dragon magazine, I would gladly buy this. No other D&D setting has ever presented me with an airship shaped like a twenty-sided die.

    D&D General Suggestions for Greyhawk resources?

    The Crypt of Lyzandred the Mad. This was a classic for my group when we were introduced to the setting this late into 2e.

    Who Hurt You? Let Players Help With Memorable Villains

    I love this. I ended up going through the Monster Manual years ago and came up with the reason why my dwarven cleric was 114 years old, but starting at level 1 in a new campaign: he USED to be high-level, before a shadow dragon flew in and level-drained him back to 1st level while slaughtering...

    D&D General Recommendation for a party of eight+ ?

    What's funny is that I forgot I ended up resorting to this years ago when I was running Rise of the Runelords and it worked, schedule-wise with the group split up and reunited at the end of the modules.

    D&D General Recommendation for a party of eight+ ?

    Wow, I'll definitely check out Delian Tomb. Thanks!

    D&D General Recommendation for a party of eight+ ?

    The large party alone would make only want to run a single-combat session for a one-off game

    D&D General Recommendation for a party of eight+ ?

    I would run this, if I weren't currently in a SKT game run by my friend :)

    D&D General Recommendation for a party of eight+ ?

    Yep, I tried this the hard way when I got my entire group of my closest friends to play the first two modules of the Rise of the Runelords Adventure Path from Paizo over 15 years ago. They mostly enjoyed it, but man oh man, combat was a slog, especially with the 3.5e rules.

    D&D General Recommendation for a party of eight+ ?

    This would probably work since coordinating one large group to show up on the same day would take a Christmas miracle

    D&D General Recommendation for a party of eight+ ?

    My friends have expressed an interest with the upcoming 2024 PHB.

    D&D General Recommendation for a party of eight+ ?

    I plan on running a one-shot adventure with my friends, but it will be for a party of eight (and possibly more). What kind of adventure would you recommend running for a large group that's manageable? If I don't resort to writing my own, are there any classic modules that worked well for you...
