That should help drive some interest. I really hope they have space to include enough KP spells so that about 20-25% of the spell list is new. This helps differentiate Midgard from FR because the magic doesn't entirely overlap.

The main reason I am waiting for Tales of the Valiant is to see if Kobold Press addresses some of the issues in 5e well. Also, I hope they decide to include as many of their own subclasses, monsters, and spells as possible to give new alternatives to a game that has been using the many of the...

I hope they stick to their guns and require a 70% rating when they revert the warlock back to pact slots. They may never get the class fixed.

That's actually a great idea also. Origins is already a five day convention so I don't think it is really a stretch for Gen Con to consider extending to six days. Hotel rooms might also be more available because it would be far less likely for an attendee to have a room booked for the entire...

So we have went through a year of playtesting, thousands of surveys, and massive amounts of results reviews at WotC to get.....weapon mastery, third level subclasses, and some feature changes that basically amount to errata? That's it? I agree with Remathilis that backtracking on almost all...

I think Gen Con abandoned this idea right before it was about to become viable. The explosion in attendance in Indianapolis happened between 2010 and 2015. The number of attendees doubled from 30,000 to 60,000. The last secondary Gen Con held in the U.S. was Gen Con So Cal in 2006. The...

Wisconsin is now the home of Gamehole Con and the people there are doing great work in Madison. I'm really considering making the 6-hour drive at some point. They should really consider moving it to September to take advantage of better weather. The point behind having another convention...

I live about 40 miles away from Indianapolis so I am very familiar with Gen Con. I have attended the convention many times since it moved from Milwaukee and even went a few times before it moved. It already has almost 1 million square feet of space and 4700 connected hotel rooms. I don't...

The Indianapolis Business Journal and several of the local stations are reporting that Gen Con is extending their contract with the city of Indianapolis through 2030. Gen Con was probably encouraged by the new 800-room hotel and 143,500 square foot expansion to the Indiana Convention Center...

I am a little bit slow on the reply, but I want to reiterate that spell points would only be given for the level 1-5 slots. This makes the point total 64 points at level 10. You don't end up with the crazy 133 points in the DMG. You might bump the total to 71 at 18th level because full...

Anyone that can't see how having spell points over a convoluted table in a game that has half casters, one-third casters, pact casters, and multiclassing in it...I'm not sure if you are looking at the whole picture. Also, spell tables encourage upcasting. Out of first level slots but want to...

I think Kobold Press has been placed in a difficult position by the adjustments Wizards has made in their design goals regarding the '24 D&D books. Six months ago it appeared Wizards was making significant changes to 5e by adjusting, removing, or adding quite a few rules. Kobold Press...

D&D needs to adopt a spell point system for level 1-5 spells and make level 6-9 spells class abilities that only gives access to one spell slot of each level. A caster should get one level 6 spell slot at level 12, one level 7 at level 14, one level 8 at level 16, and one level 9 at level 18.

That's definitely what I will end up doing. I enjoy the KP monster products. I just want to see ToV not only be a successful KS but also a beloved system in the hobby for years to come.

It was wonderful to see a company reward it's backers this way. The problem is that it only left a 4 page public playtest packet for the players who are evaluating your entire process before purchasing the product in April next year. There has been no buzz created from what should be probably...

I will be as transparent as possible here and I will not use any inductive reasoning. I bought some Pathfinder 2E items but have not played them yet because I am finishing a campaign in D&D. I thought what Wizards did with the OGL was despicable and I hope the Pinkerton agents get the book...

So you believe people inferred that the reprints would be a Remastered edition that had not been announced yet? Did you even think that or did you not notice the announcement at that time? I think you may be confused about who has the extreme position.

My post about whether Paizo should release new books was actually on the Paizo forums, not EN World. The title of the post is "Pathfinder Next Edition Thoughts." Several posters responded they did not want new books. I was critical of Wizards when they attempted to deauthorize the OGL, but my...

It's called a lie by omission. People get called on it all the time. I discussed Paizo releasing new books to help new players about a month ago and was laughed at because no one believed Paizo would print new books 4 years after release and no one wanted them. When this statement was made on...

"Of course, Paizo plans to continue publishing Pathfinder and Starfinder, even as we move away from the Open Gaming License. Since months’ worth of products are still at the printer, you’ll see the familiar OGL 1.0(a) in the back of our products for a while yet. While the Open RPG Creative...
