    Nominate your MOST ANTICIPATED RPG of 2022

    I am most looking forward to Blade Runner the RPG from Fria Ligan, with Cy_Borg and Blue Planet: Recontact closely following. As it is only a supplement, it does not count, but Vaesen: Mythic Britain and Ireland is nearly level with Blade Runner the RPG for me.

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo no longer publishing Dungeon and Dragon

    There was a period of about three to six months a few years back when Dragon and Dungeon didn't really arrive in stores in Copenhagen, Denmark. I was told it was due to distributer problems. It also affected private subscribers. I have found that the European importers and distributers are often...

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo no longer publishing Dungeon and Dragon

    Sad, but it doesn't surprise me. Personally, issue 352 was the first issue of Dragon I had bought in quite a while. Mainly because I am not playing D&D anymore. The cause of this decrease in circulation might be a move for some gamers from D&D to other games and the possible (but not...

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo no longer publishing Dungeon and Dragon

    I actually enjoyed it alot :) I had read all his novels beforehand and are going through his Looking for Jake short story compilation. I know from various boards that there were some people who did not like the fact that approximately half the issue was devoted to China Mieville. I am greatly...

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo no longer publishing Dungeon and Dragon

    You cannot conclude anything from this particular statistic. Give me the sales from every month, the last twelve months and that conclusion might be right. Standing alone it doesn't say anything... You also have to take the content of each individual issue into account. How useful is it to the...

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo no longer publishing Dungeon and Dragon

    This is what I have seen from them most often, when it comes to things like this. It seems like they want to appear as professional as possible: We're too professional to care, seems to be their motto. Not that it necesarily is that way, but that is how it comes across to me. Too... corporate. :)

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo no longer publishing Dungeon and Dragon

    Yesterday was a great day... First I was called around noon and was told that my grandmother had died, and when I got home 12 hours later, I found out, that the Dungeon and Dragon Magazines has been mortually wounded. A sad day. It looks as though WotC is consolidating its grip on the D&D...

    If you had to cut one element from the D&D game...

    I would remove the element that annoys me most: Levels :)

    [Devil’s Workshop] Abortion and D20?

    Well... Slavery is still practised today. All over the world in fact. Buying men and women from developing countries and putting them to work is a multi-millioen dollar industri today. The people end up as sexslaves, prostitutes and slavelabour on farms and in sweathouses. This occurs all over...

    Pastoralists vs Agrarians vs Nomads

    Quite true. The problem is that the trees that lived there were small and not very suited to shipbuilding. That was a huge problem for a settlement that still continued to keep contact with Europe. Thus, the timber expeditions :)

    Pastoralists vs Agrarians vs Nomads

    The numbers of Norse that made landfall was very few and, as far as we know, there were never plans to make a permanent settlement in Vinland. The expeditions to North America was mainly to get supplies to treeless Greenland :) Oh... And the Skraelings attacked them because they were poisoned...

    Pastoralists vs Agrarians vs Nomads

    D&D technology does not really stall at the 1200s. There are plenty of examples of later technology in the Phb. Both items and social structure. It is one of the things that I dislike about D&D. Not because it is in the book, but because it is supposed to be available in all standard cultures...

    Pastoralists vs Agrarians vs Nomads

    This is a very complicated subject and there are no easy answers. I am an archaeology student specialized in Scandinavian pre-historic cultures. The social structure often depends on the technological level of the culture. Most pre-bronze age cultures are gereontocracies. This is not absolute...

    Gulags and Mammuths

    It is called Mourning Sun and is released on SPV. I do not know if it has been released outside Europe yet... I bought it in Copenhagen, Denmark :) I really like it. It resembles Elizium, but is a bit harder sometimes. I can wholeheartedly recommend it :) You can find more info here.

    Gulags and Mammuths

    Recently my girlfriend gave me the new Fields of the Nephilim album and it quickly inspired me to create a alternate reality setting based on the early fifties Sovjet Union and the gulags (prison/workcamp), where mammuths roams the Siberian forest. What I need from the almighty En-World...

    Is D&D 3.5 your first role playing game

    The first game I played was Cyberpunk 2020. Shortly thereafter I had my first experience with AD&D 2nd Edition. I have played a lot of different games since then (the first game I bought was WEG Starwars), including D&D 3.0, 3.5 and WoD (my favorite). I probably should add that I am mainly a...
