    D&D (2024) One D&D Overly Complex

    Am I the only one who enjoyed the relative lack of complexity of 5e? I am not enjoying what I see with the latest play test material or most of it, in general. They seem to be adding a lot of complexity to the game (weapon mastery) etc that I just do not enjoy. The weapon mastery items would be...

    Is this still a thing for those who supported the site when it was offered back in the day? I cannot seem to find if I still have it active or not.

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo/Pathfinder Subscriptions Service

    I am a fan of the subscriptions service through Paizo. It rocks and it makes things a bit easier on me; however, I have friends who own the friendly local game store. Unfortunately, they do not stock Pathfinder products because no one is buying them from them. I convinced them to get some...

    Wizard- Class Revision (Saga Meets D&D)

    So I have been tinkering with meshing the elements of Saga that I love with D&D3.5. I have made some decisions (feel free to comment) to change things to make them a bit simpler. I have added Physical and Mystical attacks. These are the basic BaB arrays. I plan to eliminate touch attacks in...

    Death of Open Content

    I have a feeling that the content of 4e will not be open any longer. The new OGL/STL seems designed for publishers. The new SRD is a document that lets publishers create content for D&D 4e. It does not seem to allow for open rules. If this is the case, then people will not be able to make a...

    D&D 4E 4E OGL threads

    Was it the intent to kill discussion by moving these threads to a place that no one will see them?

    Core materials: Action Points and Insider

    I am not sure I like the implication that action points are core. I do not like action points. I do not find them useful for the game. I have used them in other system and found they just added mechanical mess with no real, positive effect on the game other than to shield players from bad...

    Combat- Group Style

    I am wondering about the push to have multiple combatants in a fight. While I often use this method in my games, I also enjoy having the single monster ripping the PCs to shreds. The lone direwolf or dragon that attacks the village or city is something I enjoy running. I am not sure why there...

    Friday Afternoon Risk!

    So Alenda begged me to give up my slot in Hypersmurf's game, so I have nothing to do on Friday afternoon. I'd really like to get some Risk going. Would anyone else like to join me for a Risk game on Friday afternoon?

    Belen's GenCon Games Feedback Requested

    So I am running three games at GenCon (links below), although there does not seem to be a lot of interest in the Mars game. I was thinking this morning that I may want to run a D&D game rather than the Mars game. The info on that is also below. What do you all think about the D&D game in...

    Mars Office of Special Services (M.O.S.S)

    War- In the colonies, everyone knows that war will come. The people of Earth may be able to hide their head in the sand and snidely dismiss the threat pose by the space colonies known as the Principality of Zeon, but those of us who live with a few feet of metal separating us from the black...

    Mearls idea on modifiers in D&D

    I really do not mean to pick on Mike. I actually think he is a great guy, but some of his recent ideas have really caused me to twitch. As I was one of the people who complained about modifiers in the RM thread, then I figured I would say something about this latest idea. (Note: We'd love to...

    [MINII]Promo Huge Black

    I received the promo Huge Black Dragon today in the mail. I have to admit that the mini is very disappointing. It is about half the size of a huge dragon from Giants of Legend. The huge base dwarfs the mini and makes it look pathetic. If this is the quality and size of the huge minis in War...

    Shadows over Merrovin

    Shadows over Merrovin The evening had settled over the village of Duskhaven and the summer heat had left the streets empty. Few people patronized the Nightingale House that night. A few regulars shared a meal and chatted quietly with the owner, Emily Alexander, and her staff. The...
