...my players won't realise that their chosen path to Save The WorldTM pushes against against the order of the cosmos (everything dies, even worlds), so i anticipate some proper shock-and-awe when tearful celestials unexpectedly appear, bringing the righteous fury of the heavens to bear upon...

...i've been chewing on the prospect of these books for a few weeks (have all the fifth-edition airdhe books in my library) but unlike the codex of airdhe expansions, in the end i couldn't quite convince myself that they were sufficiently system neutral, so last night i ordered green ronin's...

...for whatever reason, enworld doesn't provide an option to upload images directly from my tablet, but now that i'm back at my desktop i can do so... ...can you point me to an image-hosting service available in the UK for future tablet use?..i'm stuck in texas so i share your frustration...

...ow, did you have to kick me right in the telomeres?!.

...for tales of the valiant, the players' guide is the only "core" book by that metric: it's the complete game, although you're doing it a disservice without the additional creatures + encounter-building material from the monster vault... ...tales of the valiant really embraces the modularity...

...here's a sample page from the PDF; my print editions are the same page-size as typical fifth-edition sourcebooks...i don't have any of the pocket editions but i believe they're identical to the full-sized layout, just scaled-down in size...

...i've always considered holmes a better-edited expression of OD+D, but essentially the same game...

...i adore that sandy petersen included dreamlands cat as a character option in his cthulhu mythos sourcebooks...

...yeah, it's a problematic term but it's also shorthand for the core genre tropes; i get what you mean but i think you get what i mean likewise... ...in whatever case, demographic ratios can be trivially-seasoned to suit a setting...

...there's a difference between forced demographics (where somebody else's choice affects yours) and guided demographics (algorithmic liberties which trend toward certain ratios), but there's a greater difference between rolling for race and choosing race, which is similar to the difference...

...for traditonal fantasy settings, my rule-of-thumb is that all players must first create and play a human character before their second core-demihuman, and must create play both a human and a core-demihuman character before any exotic race...that generally herds character demographics into a...

...the baby boom encompassed a loooooong generation; that they got twenty years when all the others got fifteen has more to do with their parents' shared post-war economy, lifestyle, and media landscape than any common cultural identity shared between kids who came-of-age in the fifties and kids...

...can't remember whether it was early in the 5e product announcements or toward the end of the stream, there's a lot packed in there: in short, they say that the product line will continue but they're not ready to announce new licensees yet...

...oh darn it, you're right!..i'll have to chew on that for a bit: aliens is too action-adventure for my science-fiction, so maybe i'll give lynch's dune adaptation the nod if i can resist tapping akira...

...last week goodman games confirmed that chris doyle left the company in august; they confirmed that original adventures reincarnated will continue but it sounds like old school adventures will replace fifth-edition fantasy as their ongoing 5e module line, now styled more similarly to OAR's...

...i'll do feature films by decade, starting from the space age... 1950s - The Forbidden Planet 1960s - 2001: A Space Odyssey 1970s - The Black Hole 1980s - Alien 1990s - Ghost in the Shell 2000s - Moon 2010s - Blade Runner 2049

...at the time we received every dragon magazine article as canon alongside the core rulebooks, so our group embraced unearthed arcana without complaint... ...it's important to remember that at the time, AD+D was cumbersome and unbalanced by design, so modern complaints about unearthed arcana...

...i don't have the 5.24 ruleset, but from the 5.14 basic rules introduction to classes... ...it's an asymmetrical ruleset, with one set of rules specific to PCs while NPCs (including commoners) use stat blocks; i think that mechanical conceit follows from the introductory premise...

...it's lying open on my table right now and i can assure you that it's very much a campaign setting despite also serving as an overlay; in fact it readily supports either playstyle or both...while the lore is more distilled than i'd've preferred on account of player-facing mechanics squeezed...
