ENnies Awards?

[Treebore]

I know Paizo blew everyone out of the water in many categories, but where can I find the rest of the winners? The Ennies website? If so I don't have that bookmarked, so if that is where it is could I get a link?

Star Wars Saga Edition (the other WotC game) did smoking hot as well.

But to answer your question, one need not go any further than the ENWorld news page.

DOH! Thanks! I used to have the ENWorld news page as my bookmark for this site, but since the server has become so crappy I have it bookmarked to this forum, so I didn't even think about the news page.

Yep, Paizo and WOTC definitely "cleaned house".

I was hoping Aces and Eights would get a little more medal recognition then it did, but I figured out long ago anything nominated is worth checking out. Medals are just icing on the cake, IMO.

Plus its cool that my favorite "Accessory" company, Fat Dragon Games, got a Silver.

So, what do people think of the winners? And those who were nominated but didn't win?

Like I said above I think Aces and Eights should have gotten another medal or two.

Since I was displeased with the quality of the WOTC/Drizzt mini I think Fat Dragon should have gotten the gold.

I am surprised Star Wars won as much as it did.

I think 3PP are still under appreciated by the masses.

I'm surprised Whiterock didn't get more.

City of Brass should have medaled. I think its one of the best D&D products ever made. Especially if you have any interest in the Djinn and the plane of fire.

Oh well, just shows why I look at anything nominated now, rather than what wins medals. Medals are the "popular vote", nomination means your quality product.

Let's not be forgetting White Wolf.

Ya, medals are popular vote. I love Monsters and Other Childish Things. It would have been awesome to see it win something but this year we had arguable four juggernauts fighting over the prizes. It is the reason though for the nominations by the judges. They don't care aobut what is popular, just what is good.

Who?






Yeah, they did good again this year, even Silver for Best Publisher. I just don't talk about them, because despite how good they are, I am not into any of their games. I only followed them when they had Scarred Lands (being redone for 4E by Fiery Dragon) and Ravenloft and WoW being done by Arthaus through WW as their publsiher. Not to mention when they used to be Necromancer Games' publisher.

So I am simply not a fan of what they are doing now.

I thought Fire & Brimstone would be a shoo-in for best free product, personally. Should have been up for Best Rules IMO.
