here's to hoping it's the first step to releasing Warhammer Quest as it was...

Nah... not my cup of tea. The AoS setting is way too generic and "primary colors" for me. It probably suffers from being too young to be fully fleshed out but when I think of interconnected planar campaigns I think of Planescape... where you had a mature, philosophical approach to the nature...

Frank Mentzer should be an auto include in any rpg list! :)

Loved the first trilogy as a teen... but IMO it hasn't aged well... or with grace... both story and writing have not grown with time. Then again I am old and cantankerous... I've replaced Salvatore with Polansky and Rothfuss, but if any young one finds inspiration in the likes of Drizzt I will...

Hey Tyler! I'm happy to host a 'training session' via Fantasy Grounds if you'd like. I've done it for other new players as well and works well as a controlled environment to get a feel for the game.

ok... this table is utterly wonderful! but I am now curious, what system of crits do you use? I keep seeing all these references to severity...

OP here... and whoa look at the posts! My group will really enjoy reading through all the responses to what we thought was a relatively innocuous question. A big thank you to all of you for your collected wisdom, wordsmithing and the occasional acrimony! We had always used the term strictly in...

Having recently introduced my Italian group to the joys of 5th Ed via a converted Spelljammer setting, the topic came up of how inclusive this new edition is when mentioning potential LGBT themes or non-binary genders during character creation. In order to illustrate this I directed their...

As a DM you can can create a Tolkienesque backstory, a beautifully created map, an evocative setting and a truly engrossing intro manual that should fire up their imaginations and creative juices. But... All of this, all of this will fall flat upon its face if the Players are not on board with...

You could go with a radically different approach and running the chimera as an NPC... less of a traditional chimera and more along the lines of 'summoned guardian in the shape of a chimera', by which I mean that while it is compelled by the magic that binds it to fight the adventurers have it...

*groan*

Look up Rogue Trader by FFG... might not be the most rules-light system out there but the atmosphere and the fluff of that game are in a league of their own.

Backed this via Kickstarter and very excited... just wish they'd stop comparing, alluding and extolling this game as a successor to Planescape Torment: the setting is just so vastly different, I guess it just rubs my nostalgia the wrong way. If they can recreated the same Operatic Story that...

yes, there is a draw tool included by which you can hand-draw maps or pretty much anything else. You can even overlay a grid or the fog of war on it just like you'd do on an imported jpeg image

No voice chat built in (yet), however my group has always used Skype to great effect. Edit: text chat is however fully developed, to the point of allowing the DM to use a different personality for each of the NPCs. You can also send private messages to individual players and fonts that only...

my first thread in years gets closed immediately due to Morrus beating me by three minutes! Still, this is fantastic news for those of us with groups scattered to the four winds like myself, happy days! unexpected news is rarely good, but in this case the surprise was a nice one indeed...

Might not be news to many of you, but to those like me who use Fantasy Grounds as a lifeline to a gaming group on a separate continent this came as a very welcome surprise...

I know for a fact (having had the books and played with them) that D&D 2e, 3e and 4e were translated in Italian, Pathfinder as well I'd imagine. curious question btw, what brought it on?
