    What do you use to stream on your TV?

    One TV is "smart" and I use its native apps. For two other TVs, I use an Amazon Firestick.

    Draw Steel News

    I'm surprised to read that. In the KS for Ashes Without Number the author declares that no AI art is used.

    OSR Healing tweak - proportionality

    In WWN, you have "strain" equal to your con. You recover 1 point per night of sleep. First aid costs strain and, usually, magical healing does as well. Natural recovery does not cost strain. Keep in mind that my experience with WWN is very limited, so I'm no expert on the system.

    OSR Healing tweak - proportionality

    I'm hugely in favor of this idea. In fact, when I was experimenting with my "D&D variant" I did exactly this thing (and it was of course, inspired by 4e and WWN). Healing proportional to total hit points and healing "surges" limited by a resource that can only be replenished in a safe haven.

    Honest question: what is "audience-first storytelling"?

    The time of the bard is nigh... (but not quite there yet).

    What happened to the thread about bard companions? It disappeared for me.

    Dragon Reflections #94

    Tangent: Monks in AD&D 1e also have two hit dice at first level. It's 2d4, which is still quite terrible. I import a lot of features from the monk variant in Dragon 53 ("He's got a lot to kick about"), among those the d6 hit die.

    Dragon Reflections #94

    Personally, I really appreciate the style and the relative brevity with which you describe the various articles and features of each issue.

    Dragon Reflections #94

    Somehow, I don't think the climate conditions were the foremost considerations on Caldwell's mind when painting that cover.

    Diamond Distributors Asks Bankruptcy Court For Ownership of Publishers' Consignment Inventory [UPDATED]

    Is there anyone here with sufficient legal knowledge and sufficient patience to explain what is going on? Why can Diamond just confiscate those goods? If they liquidate them are the previous owners among the creditors to be refunded?
