On his Facebook page, Ken Burnside has this to say about Asmodee’s situation: So, things aren’t looking good… (Facebook post quoted because try pasting a functional Facebook link here…good luck)

What in the Sam Hill is going on at Evil Genius Games? I've seen three people posting on Facebook about possible ethical issues at EGG in the last couple of days. Yesterday, BJ Hensley shared a Facebook post from Mike Bramnik that read: She added this comment about her own experience there in...

https://www.theguardian.com/books/2023/dec/18/copyright-claim-against-tolkien-estate-backfires-on-lord-of-the-rings-fanfiction-author?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other There’s an old saying out there about glass houses that, apparently, this guy doesn’t know. Clearly, Demetrius Polychron has a number of...

Gamehole Con starts today. Did will-call to pick up my badge and plushie gelatinous cube yesterday. Now (as soon as my daughter gets her stuff together), we're heading off for 9am game sessions. Among the games I'm trying for the first time this weekend are Pendragon and Blade Runner. And, of...

I was just trying to look something up in my posting history and noticed a gap between Feb 25, 2023 and May 6, 2023. After a wee bit of searching, it seems to be pretty much everywhere. Is some index corrupt? It's clear that posts in that date range exist, they're just not being found as part of...

OK, that's a bit of a statement to just lay out there. Sounds like something people need to dish on. I'll state that there are positive ways to use blacklists. For example, a company I used to work for refused to do business with members of the Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce business...

Or does it? What's your interest level?

Why are my posts suddenly coming up as needing moderator approval? This started yesterday.

After 39 years in business, Pegasus Games in Madison, Wisconsin is closing its doors in November. The current owners want to retire and sought a buyer. No luck. The clearance sale starts today with closing planned for November 17. I've been a customer of theirs for a good 35 years and spent...

The Reaching Hand Does nobody at WotC edit Ed Greenwood? I can hear it at game tables across the world now… "I want to apply for that "Reaching Hand" job. Where can I find a "Reaching Hand" job?

http://www.enworld.org/forum/4e-discussion/221881-paizo-annoucement.html Quite a discussion that was when Paizo made their official announcement regarding the Pathfinder game. Lots of predictions, lots of first impressions. So, three and a half years on, how well did you do? Have your...

but when you glance at a thread with the text WFRP in it, do you immediately think WKRP instead? I do.

Here's a press release I never expected to see: V&V became the superhero game of choice for my friends and me back in the 1980s. It was less complex than Champions for teaching the new players, but it was less annoyingly designed than Marvel Super Heroes that came after it. I think V&V...

Looking for a little help here. In WotC's archives of articles from late 2007 (particularly October), there are references to errata being produced for both Compete Mage, Magic Item Compendium, and the Player's Handbook II. But on the errata page itself, there are no links for them. Did these...

OK, I just started reading Complete Divine and was a little surprised by the alternative base classes in there. I'm not surprised they all have spontaneous casting, but I am surprised at some of their additional powers and wonder just how well they balance. With respect to the shugenja, I don't...

The Mutants and Masterminds Annual (Listed as #1 on their website, in anticipation of futher publications I hope) is broken up into several varying chapters and so the whole product seems designed to capture the interest of a broad segment of MnM players and GMs. For the most part, these...
