I can. But I get most stuff from Kickstarters or directly from the publisher - where I also get the PDFs. Additionally, my gaming purchases have just bottomed out. There's not much I want anymore.

A good Dark Sun book with an exciting implementation of psionics might be what gets me to run 5.24.

This is the first Christmas in probably 20 years I got no gaming-related gifts - well, I did get a t-shirt with a d20 on it. No boardgames, dice, minis, paint, brushes, rulebooks, or video games. I did get a President James Garfield Pez dispenser - so that was nice.

Christmas has passed. And I didn't hear the song.

I made the realization while going through my photos over Christmas break that I purchased my set of all three 2024 core D&D rulebooks in June. I've flipped through them once. It's a wild observation to me that in the span of 6 months, I've barely looked at the current edition of D&D. It's not...

My local game store has rows of D&D and Pathfinder books they've definitely overpurchased. For example, at one point they had about 15 copies of Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft. They also put the date of arrival on their price tags, so you can see that they have been sitting on the shelf for...

I "ran" a short campaign in Fantasy Flight Star Wars. We used primarily Age of Rebellion as the flavor. I set the game post battle of Endor. I was pretty deep in "traditional" (non-narrative) RPGs at the time (such as D&D and Pathfinder). I knew the Star Wars lore, but the dice pools really...

I guess I was confused about the specifics. Thanks for the clarification.

Somehow, I got my Fantasy 1 miniatures. Original backer in the U.S.

BLG delivered for Altar Quest and Fantasy 1 (which was delayed a bit). I never got Horror, Fantasy 2, or Lasting Tales. I'm not going to hold my breath that I get any of those other Kickstarters.

I like the Army Painter brand - their "Fanatic" line of acrylics is very good. The starter set comes with a tutorial brochure and a brush. (Without getting too in depth, there are "new" types of paints called Contrast or Speed Paint. They can give medium+ results with less effort - but they have...

Ok. But there are similarities which make some players question. Like here's a cloud giant. But he's different than the other cloud giants because he has different clothes. So we should trust him? Like here's a floating tower, but it's not a castle. So we should trust him? Like here's a cloud...

It really fell apart for us. Here's my advice. You really need to change the meeting of the giant in the floating tower. It's set up to look like he had destroyed the village - and my group absolutely didn't trust him. He is the only one who knows the story, so my group NEVER understood what was...

Sure. We're Dice & Done. We're not close to being in the big leagues, but we're having fun with it. So far we've done Daggerheart, Wildsea, Vaesen, and a few other games. It will be a few weeks until TMNT is recorded and posted.

I haven't heard it yet, and I won't be seeking it out. But I am looking forward to hearing it. Makes me think of my dad, who thought it was the best "modern" Christmas song, despite not being a fan of 80s music.

I bit off more than I can chew and agreed to present Palladium's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Other Strangeness RPG (recently reprinted) on a podcast next week. It was my first RPG, and I remember being confused by it when I was 10 years old. I didn't think I would be confused with almost 40...

I'm running two campaigns in Daggerheart. Both groups are loving it, and it's a natural fit for my GMing style (after searching for decades). My biggest concern was that there's not enough content in the core set to play for many years (unlike games like D&D or Pathfinder). So I'm very pleased...

My second was AD&D 2nd edition. My first was TMNT and Other Strangeness by Palladium.

Cynthia Williams worked her magic again.

I'd love to make it through The Enemy Within. So far, I've made it through Book One a couple times.
