    What is/are your most recent TTRPG purchase(s)?

    I’m liking what I see in ToV and have purchased the core stuff for Shard VTT. Hope to play-test it soon and see how well I really like it.

    What is/are your most recent TTRPG purchase(s)?

    I picked up two things recently, I use terrain and minis a lot. I just got a set of planter and flower box minis. I suggested it to the Galladoria team and they named the product after me. :) https://galladoria.com/products/taloriens-noble-shrubbery Exciting for me, not sure how many people...

    What do you, personally, need a system to do for you?

    Hi Ian, it's Mark. For me, the rules are the guardrails to lean into when I can't adjudicate a particular event. To use your social situations example, I would try to encourage and hope the players explain to the NPC their rationale and convince them without a roll. If they make a really...

    D&D (2024) You Can Now Pre-order Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    OK. I don't understand the point of view the art in these books is presenting and I need it spelled out for me. :)

    D&D (2024) You Can Now Pre-order Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    Agreed. We don't. But we have things called artistic movements, like the bauhaus school, post impressionism, etc. They were interesting because they had a point of view and that's what's missing from the core books. It's generic to a fault. Which of the two covers do you like for the core...

    D&D (2024) You Can Now Pre-order Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    It's always about taste in the end. He is still contemporary and unlike what I am seeing in the 2024 books, his work has style. He's a working artist today, and whether you love or hate PF2e he is their current cover artist. So obviously, plenty of people love his work and feel he is relevant...

    D&D (2024) You Can Now Pre-order Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    Understood, and I get that. But , in the end, I think there is an issue with the quality of some images, and some just feel off. Again, this is just my opinion and how I feel. I think they could have done better. Some of the images actually take me out of my head rather than getting me...

    D&D (2024) You Can Now Pre-order Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    I'll take another look at the DMG. I think it's more of an overall feel. I'm not saying there are no good works of art in either book. Just that I think, on the whole, they did a better job creating a cohesive artistic feel for the line in past editions. The Eberron book, at least, is going...

    D&D (2024) You Can Now Pre-order Eberron: Forge of the Artificer

    Ebberon is probably my second favorite setting, after Dark Sun. I personally loved Wayne Reynolds art and style. To me, that set the bar pretty high and established the mood of the setting. Similar to Brom's influence on Dark Sun (if less pronounced). The new artwork for the supplement is...
