I'd like to see the post own goal Celebration. Do they all lift up their jerseys and is says 'Powned' underneath?

This is pure gold - Laughing so hard. I saved the images, thanks so much. They are so defensive it makes me wonder if they are also owners of the company.

Although I am merely a friend of, and not the Dave Arneson Estate. I am privy to a bit of what has transpired. If you know anyone listed in the credits of the book, let them know to contact the Estate, as there are questions about whom is involved with decision making in regard to the book's...

it's hard to tell anything without seeing the book.

But the Estate is saying: Hey, talk to us and this can be official Blackmoor.

There was a rumored unfinished project under Zeitgeist Games. There is also a very old Blackmoor setting from maybe 72 the Island of the Wolf,I have seen the map. But who knows what this is. It sounds like something made up from fragments of discussions, and not like an actual manuscript. A...

Or even the simple respect of working with the family? What if it was your dads painting, or your mothers writing? How would you feel then? Really, all Ink Bat needs to do is talk to the Estate. Until the Estate see's what this is, they have no choice but to call it fake.

Those of you who paid to attend The Age of the Wolf events at GenCon are advised to read this closely, as The Age of the Wolf is neither created by Dave Arneson nor considered as an official Blackmoor game book by the Dave Arneson Estate. The Arneson Estate has issued this Press Release...

The Arneson Estate has this to say: https://www.arnesonestate.com/press

I won't buy the book. The smear job on Gary Gygax does not belong in it. The book is not a biography of Gary Gygax. If it were, I would expect a whole chapter about Gary and his sexism because it is a well known fact. Yet, I would also expect the chapter on it to be complicated. Despite his...

Its stil for sale on the TFOTT site and on Amazon and Vimeo - did you ever watch the movie?

Despite all the later non game issues, you should feel regret at not having read Empire of the Petal Throne. I've read nearly everything for it. There is no setting to compare. It is the most compelling world ever created. Both Gygax and Arneson praised it highly. Yeah, getting graph paper was...

Everything happens at once and everyone gets their shot in. Combat attacks all happen and spell results are applied at the end of the round. Very simple and fast.

I just have my own way of doing things. You would need to experience how I run to understand it. I run groups as big as 15 PCs sometimes. Combat is fast and furious. (Why I do not use initiative in my games as it slows things down.) My preference is to have everything on paper so the player...

It is always a choice of what you want in your game. So it really does come down to personal taste. I want my players to be immersed in their own heads instead of looking at minis and a battle mat. I've played both styles and I like both styles for variety. In my own campign I do not want a...

It depends on how old the gamers were in a group. My first group were teens, I was oldest at 14, and they only wanted to go to the dungeon. As the one who got bullied into being the DM I lasted maybe a year doing that. I had to abandon that group and find slightly older gamers who wanted to do...

I play how I've always played and use Parallel Actions. I had a chance to sit in with Bob Meyer running his version of Blackmoor and he claimed he ran his game like Arneson. He too used Parallel Actions. It goes back to the 1 minute combat round idea of OD&D where everyone can do something...
