There are a ton of third-party RPGs based on the 5e ruleset. Just recently Cubicle 7 dropped their 5e variant of Victoriana. Then there's Fateforge, Tales of the Valiant, and so on. Which ones are your favorite, and what do they do with the 5e engine that appeals to you? How much variation from...

I'm interested in your opinion of roll-under/roll-high mechanics. The way they work is like this: you roll your die or dice (in the White Hack's case, for example, a d20). You want to roll equal to or under your Attribute or skill. But, within that metric, you want to roll as high as possible...

Do any of you use rules/concepts from 4e D&D for your 5e games? For example, the bloodied condition or minions. If so, what have you ported over and how well has it worked?

Now that Free League holds the middle earth license and has released the 2nd edition of The One Ring, does anyone know if they are planning to continue Adventures in Middle Earth (the 5e RPG set in Middle Earth)? At one point Cubicle 7 said that AiME outsold TOR by 10:1, so I would think it...

I'm curious as to how well they worked for you, especially at higher levels. BONUS: what do you think of – instead of spell slots or spell points – using a spellcasting roll to see if a spell works or not?

With regard to the success probabilities of attacks, thief skills, the damage outputs of various classes at various levels, NWPs in 2e, and anything else you wish to discuss (spell progressions, XP requirements for levelling up), do you find that pre-3e versions of D&D have a good balance...

The hardcover version of The Bone Age is finally available! Please take a look if the idea of playing a neolithic character fighting off alien invaders on a scorching hot planet sounds like your kind of jam.

Now available at DrivethruRPG! The Ape-Turtles didn't plan on three flying saucers crashing into the planet. The Bone Age is an old-school RPG of neolithic-era tribes struggling against the sudden arrival of bug-eyed aliens. You play a Tuzanian, a tribe of jungle-dwelling...

I need your opinions! My Kickstarter campaign ends Tuesday morning. I'm considering running another one for a 5e version, but don't know if this gonzo style would be of interest to 5e players. If you have the time, would you take a look and tell me if you think a 5e version would fly?

Sword & sorcery is a subgenre of fantasy typified by Conan, Elric, Fafhrd & the Gray Mouser, etc. With the exception of Primeval Thule and the World of Xoth, I'm unaware of any 5e-derived sword & sorcery products. Are there any more? Specifically, S&S game books that include the rules, rather...

Yeah, THAT Robert Schwalb (Shadow of the Demon Lord and countless D&D stuff)! He just backed my Kickstarter and said "Now this is my kind of weird!" I'm tickled pink!

What method did/do you use to make your combat rolls? In other words, did you adjust your THAC0 by the opponent's AC (as in the rules), or did you subtract your d20 roll from your THAC0 and tell the DM what AC you've hit? Or something else?

While I own PF2 and have read half of it, I have not yet played it. My gaming group has played it 3 times (I wasn't able to attend any of them). With that in mind, I'm feeling somewhat underwhelmed by the game. I do see some some improvements, especially in the way advancement feats are...
