    I think it is time for a break.

    I took breaks from some aspect of gaming and focused on others. Stopped TTRPGs and focused on boardgames. Stopped MMOs and played solo games. Stopped GM/DM-ing on cons and started a PbP... etc. I think it is healthy to experiment a bit. For instance I don't miss my MMO at all, but I missed my...

    D&D General Games Economies

    I am very disappointed that none of the big fantasy RPGs have a functional economy. The only believable fantasy economy I saw from them was in Ptolus. One of my favourite books is ... and a 10-foot Pole (1999) (Link: ... and a 10-foot Pole ) I highly recommend it. Hackmaster, Rolemaster, Gurps...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 D&D Starter Set - Your turn to design

    I would have added a page for a linear/railroad adventure layout. First: looted wagon Second: Kobold lair Third: weapon smelting + the "ghost" Fourth: game trail etc. Other than that, I think it is pretty much perfect.

    D&D General Eberron - why don't you run it? [-]

    The dragonmarked houses and the lightningrail are the 2 main reasons. The last one is the lack of info about what happened to Cyre and what is the Lord of Blades up to. If someone writes an adventure path about the mystery of the Mournland, or about the rising warforged empire, or just the...

    D&D 5E (2024) How excited are you for the 2 upcoming Forgotten Realms books?

    I've put them in my online basket at least 20 times now (and then taken them out again). :) I would like them to be good, useful and full with new information about the post-spellplague era..., but I kinda doubt it, that they will be.

    D&D 5E (2024) How excited are you for the 2 upcoming Forgotten Realms books?

    Literally, if I have a little bit of free time to let my mind wander, I am thinking about these two books. I watched the Todd Kenreck interview on youtube (several times), read the summary on dndfan, read the forum topic here... I'm still constantly thinking about: which parts of Toril they have...

    WotC Chris Perkins announces Retirement from Dungeons and Dragons
