I recently backed the Old Gods of Appalachia crowdfunding campaign, and as that goes through fulfillment, I realized that I haven't actually run much horror, and played only a little. Which is not to say that I haven't run and played games with traditionally horror tropes and enemies. But most...

This is the last d20 you will ever need.

Hi, all! EN World stopped having a "marketplace" forum, because it never worked as well as eBay, craigslist, and other similar dedicated sites. But right now, we may have folks here who are rather cheesed off at WotC, and want out of D&D, and are looking to dump their collection of books. And...

This is a (+) thread. If you aren't interested in talking about what we'd find acceptable in a new license, please find another discussion. We are talking a lot about what isn't acceptable. But, let us think in terms of a counter-offer. 1) No OGL is revoked. Create the OGL v1.0b - it is...

Currently watchable for free on the Roku Channel streaming service. Daniel Radcliffe stars as Weird Al, in a parody of rock biopics. I've been a Weird Al fan for a long, long time, so I was looking forward to this. It doesn't reach the heights of UHF, but it is okay, in a "Good bits in a...

Coyote & Crow is a role-playing game set in a North America that never was - in which world events prevented the European exploration and colonization of the continent, leaving the indigenous people to develop on their own. The kickstarter for this game fulfilled this year, and now they're...

Rob Donoghue is a roleplaying game designer who helped create Fate (in general, and several of the specific variants) and Cortex systems. Recently, he made some observations on GM advice, leaning heavily into one point - it is very difficult to test whether the advice actually works or not...

Shut up and take my money!

Well, this sounds... a little strange, to be honest. https://www.tor.com/2021/09/27/babylon-5-the-cw-j-michael-straczynski/ https://deadline.com/2021/09/babylon-5-series-reboot-j-michael-straczynski-development-cw-1234845022/

Most of you won't care, but the musical group ABBA is releasing a new album, and have made a couple of cuts from it available. One of the songs is "Don't Shut Me Down", a song that seems to be about a woman who has gone through some changes, and has returned to try an old romantic relationship...

"UK-based production company Warp Films has formed a creative and commercial partnership with Anglo-French producing and financing outfit Anton to develop a slate of features and television series with an international focus. Anton will finance a development fund to identify high-value IP and...

This place seems rather appropriate for the collected nerds here... https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/12227-E-Tallman-Rd-Chattaroy-WA-99003/23588709_zpid/

For fans of the original, Leverage: Redemption has dropped a day early on IMDb TV. (which is a free streaming service, but you'll have ads.) I'm not going to engage in spoiler-discussion, because I don't binge-watch. But I'm looking forward to this. The original is tne first show I ever...

Sometimes, you see a work, and you just have to admire the commitment. Like, how else can they possibly do this silly thing, except by OWNING it...

I hadn't watched this show when it originally ran from 2011-2016. My wife and I started on it a couple of years ago, and have even making our way slowly through it (we aren't binge-watchers, you see). It is now on HBO Max, and I got to the finale tonight. I think it is one of the most finely...

So, we are all players of games, and for D&D, we need random number generation. I am curious how many dice most of us pull out when sitting down to play. I recognize that covid-19 has made serious changes in how many or most of us play. Let us, for the moment, treat that as a temporary...

I am looking for a less blurry version I can get attribution for...

So, there are solutions to Einstein's equations for General Relativity that allow for effective faster than light travel - you may have seen them referred to as real life "warp bubbles". The problem with them is that they need a lot of what physicists call "exotic matter" - matter with really...

If you want to watch, NASA's stream is live. The "seven minutes of terror" will happen around 3:55PM or so today. https://mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/timeline/landing/watch-online/
